Which is quieter...?

[Mookelboo]

I work in an office with cubicles. There's almost no one in it today so, have been able to have a comfortable cheeky few vapes at my desk (I feel so naughty! ). Anyway, the issue I am having is that I got auto batts (which I really am getting on with) but, they make drag noise in an otherwise dead silent office.

I need to get additional batteries as it is. Are manual batteries quieter?

Cheers!

Some of them are louder, but a 510 with a manual 510 battery with a rubber button is silent, and the atomizer is pretty quiet if you use carts. Otherwise you get that gurgling noise if you drip (over drip). My wife had this same problem and has learned even with big mods how not to make the button click, and if she holds the vapor for a little bit and swallows, no vapor output or very little.

The batteries are typically pretty silent. You are probably hearing the carto.

Mooke....you can cover the airholes...it will make the draw a little harder, but no air noise.....either use tape or your fingers

I shall experiment a bit more over the weekend with covering air holes, ta Keela! I suspected it may have been the carto (definitely the pops & cracks). Thought if maybe I could activate via button versus suckage it may have made a difference. Anyway, I didn't notice it much before, again it's a dead silent office and I'm sure my ears are more sensitive with the guilty conscience.

As for the 510, maybe in stage 2... atomizers/dripping intimidates me at the mo.

Thanks all for the advice!

there should be a battery shaped like a ballpoint pen... maybe a mont blanc design

You could always shake some paper or something to mask the noise everytime you take a hit

Or you could set off a small explosive as a distraction Mookelboo (sir or Ms.?)

It's the carto heating up and sizzling. Any sort of distraction should do, a fan perhaps, ruffle papers. New cartos are generally the noisiest and once they're broken in a bit the quiten down.

Ooo, a Mount Blanc battery - V4L could charge a fortune for it and sell it with the pen & pencil kit! Shuffling papers would do. Morandir, it's a Ms, ta for asking. Not quite an explosion but, it was so quiet I had Girl From Ipanema playing at full bore at one point... I'm a giver like that.
