Popping sound?

Nope not spitting juice just noisy and a little annoying but if this is a normal thing I'm relieved! Thank you
When I don't hear a little popping it usually makes me take a glance at the mod/battery/tank and wonder if something is wrong.
Its actually more like a popping then bubbling or maybe even a gurgling sound. Its strange. I've taken it apart and don't see anything visibly wrong.
I'm not real familiar with that exact tank. However... I have had that issue with the Aspire Nautilus. Gurgling and popping are two different issues. Gurgling "usually" means you have flooded the coil. Most often it is from taking to hard a draw on the vape. With the Nautilus what you do is turn the entire tank upside down and take a medium slow hit. What this does is vaporize the excess juice and at the same time it doesn't allow more juice through the wick holes because the juice level is below the holes in the coil head. You might get a drop of juice down the drip tip onto your tongue but just spit it on a napkin. Then I usually turn my tank right side up and look to see if any air bubbles are coming from the wick holes in the coil. This lets me know the wick is accepting juice. Wait a couple minutes and you should be good to go.
I just checked for pictures and the method "might work". It might be difficult to see air bubbles with the tank (if I looked at the right one). It is a nice starter kit. I wouldn't recommend buying a back up, I'd recommend an upgrade and use that one for a back up when you are ready to do so. I usually recommend the iStick 30W and Nautilus Mini, though there are literally hundreds of options out there. (I'm just posting this in case you ask)

Oops sorry had a malfunction there! Lol
Thank you for that info. I will definitely try that and I am thinking of upgrading soon. I don't mind this one since I'm just starting out but it would be nice to have one with a few less issues. I find vaping harsher then smoking. Does that go away? I've read that VG blends aren't as harsh then PG ones. Could that be why?

It could be your nicotine, the flavoring, as well as the PG. I'd recommend at a minimum of 50pg/50vg for juices. If you're already using this mix then it won't hurt to drop down to 40 pg and 60 vg, or even 30pg/70. However, the higher you go in VG the more likely to gunk a coil (VG is sweeter than PG) and the slower the coil wicks (which can give dry hits, and burn up a coil).
You've only been vaping 2 days so I'd recommend sticking with this for a few more to get used to it. You might want to read this link :

Finding the vape balance is a little irritating when you first start because there are a few different issues for every vaper. I didn't have any trouble switching to vape, and I vape higher PG than most without trouble. Every one is different. There is plenty of help here on ECF for any question you have, don't be shy.
Good luck in your vape journey, you CAN do it!
The popping sound is caused by microscopic aliens getting sucked in and incinerating on the hot coil.
I was watching a British guy do a review for the Nautilus BVC coil and he cracked me up when every time he hit the coil and it popped, he would say "That's a happy little coil!"
Popping is a wonderful thing. It means your juice is properly and quickly being converted to vapor. Popping is not bad in the least bit. You should be extremely happy to hear that popping! Enjoy, you have a nice setup going!
what ohm and wattage rating is your coil and how much wattage are you vaping it at?

I have the tank. Popping is normal - in fact I find it makes my clove flavor feel more authentic.
I'm assuming yours probably came with a 1.5 ohm dual cool atty? If you have a twist battery I'd recommend that if you have it at a higher setting and want it lower, adjust it very slowly. I had a chronic problem with flooding until I realized quickly turning it down was what was causing it.
Yep they explode. Kinda tasty too.
There are trillions and trillions of them and while each one is not intelligent they link psychically together to form kind of a group mind which is strong enough to influence those humans with weak minds. Which is why politicians and such are working against vaping.

its normal... and it sometimes can become excessive depending on the coil/wick design... I vape the same juice in my RSST and in my CLT dripper... the RSST doesnt pop but the CLT will go off like the 4th of July
