Rough couple of days..

[pink0821]

After last night's fiasco, with puttin almost 100% vg juice into my Kanger T2-trying to dilute it with distilled water, OVER diluting it, then just dumping it out, cleaning the clearo and letting it dry over night and replacing the head (becausei wiped a little too rough with the wicks while trying to clean them).

After all of that ^^, I put some different juice in it, a little sample bottle I got with my kit (gummy bear) and started vaping it. I have noticed a gurgly sound that i can "feel" in my mouth when drawing...there is also no more crackly sound like I was getting with my CE4 clearo with just the plain menthol juice.

Im getting a tone of vapor, and decent amount of flavor. But that gurgly sound/feeling is awkward.

Reading up, I have found that it may be flooded-due to turning my PV upside down or flooding the wicks.

1.) So I have to keep this thing completely upright all the time? I didn't do that with the CE4 that came with my ego c twist. Its been flipped upside down tons of times and it was just fine.

2.) Flooding the wick by putting too much liquid in, or how does that happen?

Is there a simple way to fix this without wasting the juice? I unscrewed the T2, took the mouth piece off, blew through the middle, and nothing came out. Am I completely stabbing in the dark with this?

aaahhhhhhhh.

Thank you. lol

Also, the gurgling seems to be hit or miss.

hold upside down, head back blow through tip with napkin over the base of the tank and blow the extra juice out of the center.

 

[Hoofhearted62]

is there juice on top of battery

 

[pink0821]

Did that, now it seems to be leaking.. when i tipped it back over

 

[pink0821]

No juice on the battery

 

[Hoofhearted62]

if you take off base with coil, blow down the coil gently, and maybe run a pipe cleaner through the mouth piece through the center

 

[pink0821]

I must be missing something.

You can try rolling up a piece of paper towel and sliding it up through the connection. I haven't tried a T2, but with a carto or the Protank if there is a lot of juice on the paper towel (after sliding fresh pieces up a few times) I will slide a piece up and block the airflow at the bottom (with my finger/paper towel/whatever) and then slowly draw (not blow) through the mouth piece against the resistance. The vacuum seems to force the liquid into the paper towel - if that makes sense.

 

[pink0821]

Seems a little better now. Am I supposed to keep it upright all the time?

 

[AttyPops]

Not a T2 expert. So grain of salt.

Basically, things with wicks flood when there's a gap between the wicks and the space they fit into (wick and stem/cap/whatever). Too tight and they don't wick. Too loose and they flood.

Thin with a few drops of water per 10 ml. Like 1 or 2 drops.

If the wicks and coils are on the bottom of tank, no need to turn it upside down. Just make sure all pieces are a tight fit but don't force.
If the wicks and coils are on the top of tank, then you need to turn upside down to keep them wet.
Don't know if this helps or not.

 

[OlDogNewTricks]

You don't have to keep it upright all the time, but if something happened to the flavor wicks or silicone cap isn't all the way down, I found that you might get extra juice in the chimney, especially if turned upside down or shaken.

 

[pink0821]

Its top coil with long wicks. Now im not getting any sound while vaping, no taste. Just vapor. This is really frustrating sometimes..

 

[iamthechimney]

have you tried taking out the juice and giving it a burn to dry it out? sounds like its flooded

 

[pink0821]

I just took out the juice and rinsed it all out. I have never dry burned. Do you have a good link to a video to show me how. Im worried I will ruin it. I have found videos but none for the kind I have

 

[pink0821]

I am wondering how it got flooded. I didn't do anything differently from my ce4 clearo then I did with this one. Is this something I have to watch out for with the t2?

 

[BigBen2k]

You just need to pull the sleeve down a bit more, on the atomizer assembly (it stretches).

 

[pink0821]

I did take that off and there was water up at the top of it near where it seals, i put it back on nice and snug. It doesn't seem like there is much at the top of the clearo blocking the hole from liquid getting in. It is currently drying. Tomorrow is another day! lol



Thank you everyone!

 

[BigBen2k]

The tip (that you screw on) seals up against it.

These tanks never leak, as long as the atomizer sleeve is on snug.
