Sudden changes in temperature will cause most BCCs to begin flooding, (IMO regardless of the fill level).
Quick hard drags will cause flooding if the tank's draw is tight (too little airflow).
Loose atomizer head or loose tank base.
Gurgling and reduced vapor are symptoms of flooding.
To clear gurgling remove the tank from your PV, wrap the drip tip end of the tank in a tissue/paper towel/etc, point the drip tip toward the ground, use a throwing motion like you were throwing the tank at your feet. Holding the tank firmly, give the tank three or four good fast ball swings. You should be good to go.

Gurgling may also be caused by condensation collecting in the drip tip well. Remove the drip tip and look for liquid. If it is use a tissue or qtip (I've even use my shirt tail, in a pinch).

I have personally noticed that certain liquids "gurrgle" more than others.

Almost all of the cheaper THINNER liquids i have bought gurggle frequently no matter what set up i have (SideNote: I dont have any advanced rig, my best rig is a pro-tank mini {or protank 2} and a Vision Spinner Battery)
However, the nicer THICKER liquids i have boughten, like Suicide Bunny Mother Milk..... has not gurggled ONCE!

Thats just my amateur insight. Id love to hear some other views on that

Just a warning--they whistle! Which may be even more annoying than gurgling. :lol:

They also leak--well, quite a few of them do ;)

A much steeper learning curve than with the Kangers, but not quite rocket science. If you have the time and the wherewithal to wind your own coils and weave your own wicks out of cotton balls--go for it. Good luck!

Good luck!

Interesting--but makes sense to me. I only use 60/40 and 70/30 PG/VG ejuices and they seem to be doing fine.

The only Kanger that occasionally gurgles for me if the eVod. Never had a T3S (regular or baby) or a PT2 gurgle.

This I had in beginning with some device, I was so frustrated could not find what was the cause, sometimes we think too difficult ;)
