These two things will make it gurgle more. It might be as simple as tightening up the coil a little more on the tank. One thing that works well for me is replacing the two loose wicks on top of the coil with one piece of 2mm wick.

Tried the T3 from SI yet? Thoughts?

awsum, Duster, and Works... I definitely appreciate the tips but I think I'm getting tinkered out with some of this stuff lol... I'm a smoker at heart and just want to grab 'n go! The T3s aren't going in the garbage yet, but for now (especially with the coming vv's) I'll roll with the clearos... No trouble with those yet at all (aside from the horizontal roll thing to keep the wicks wet)... I think ya'll are a bit more advanced than me lol...

Yeah, but besides the gurgle they're also not getting much vapor. Now that's the result of either low battery voltage, a high resistance/open coil or not enough liquid getting to the coil to produce any vapor. Add in the gurgle and the most likely causes are low voltage or a high resistance/open coil. Next would be too much liquid getting to the coil and flooding it. To bad we can't see what happening in the coil chamber, that would make diagnosis a snap! Another thing that could be happening is that the coil heats once then opens or goes high, but that would be pretty unusual.
im so glad I was brave enough to take t3 apart....and flush the coil wicks...this t3 is vaping great....even the condensation...has gone...after having a few more vapes then I usually do....to me its as good as brand new...I have found the others I have are....not as good as when I just flushed the whole head...so ill try doing the same to my other heads...theres one juice I love...and ive never been able to get it to vape well...so ill try taking one of those wicks out of another one....see what happens.....so im very happy with these t3s so far....its costing far less...then the x2 clearos....cause I had nothing up trouble with them....and flavour is so much better in t3s
I'm glad you got them working properly Debra. They do give a great vape when working properly.
I also have great results with 2mm wick, but to add a wrinkle I usually pull out 2 strands.
Go figure
yes its took me awhile to say im happy with vaping...but after nearly 2wks with these t3s...I can now say im a happy vaper....enjoy the highs..while I can...sweet
bender......
I'm with you on this! But it seems sometime with this ahh...foreign stuff, it just has to be adjusted.
The real funny thing is, when I started down this road, this "adjusting' is what everybody blamed on "cheap gas station" stuff and they said to buy stuff online. Well, guess what, I've yet to find any device being talked about without some problems somewhere (Although SI and Provari seemed to be two with the fewest at the start of my journey!)

Great minds think alike! I take out one or two strands if I'm getting dry hits and want it to wick more.

Mine gurgle on and off regardless of what threading they are. Yeah flavor is muted but at least I'm not getting the out right leaks I had with ce3's and dripping batteries I had with the X2 clearos. I could do without the airy draw, toothpick trick helps but cant find that draw sweet spot. Overall for performance and easy of filling plus being able to replace just the heads they're great.

Instead of the toothpick, I use clear nail polish. For me it's just a little easier than getting the toothpick to work just right.
If filling one hole is too restrictive, then take a pin to the one covered by the nailpolish and make a small hole.

Thought I'd pass this along: EDIT: Includes gurgling and a video

Even though it's not leaking yet, the tank I'm using now has a crack in it. When I stop using it, I'm going to cut it open to see how it's sealed in the mouthpiece. I've figured it was glued in.

Now that's really interesting! I had also assumed that the mouthpiece was a glued fitting. I saw video where somebody removed the mouthpiece while changing a T3 into a top fill tank, why you'd want to put filler in a T3 is beyond me, and he used a heat gun to warm it up to soften the glue, or so he said. It does make sense that the air tube would be a separate seal and probably a press fit at that. I haven't had a leak yet after using a total of five, but that looks like it could cure the problem.
Happens to me all the time. WIn8/IE10 does have a good spell checker, but sometimes the typos slip through LOL.
I don't understand putting filler in it either, but being able to fill it from the top would nice if it doesn't cause new leaks.

I think it would leak like a sieve if you tried that. What would be great would be to have a removable mouthpiece, but given that these things are basically a CE3 on steroids I suspect they'd leak like a CE3 filled right side up. The trick is surface tension and vacuum that balance the pressure between inside the tank and the ambient air.
They should only leak like that if the tank is sealed and you're filling it with a syringe. The Nanos don't leak when you fill them if you put the mouthpiece back on pretty quick.
