have some single coil 2.5 ohms cartos in my tank and they are so noisy people at work are getting annoyed....is that normal?
LOL I'm oddly comforted by the snap crackle and pop of my cartos. I've used standard res and low res dual coils and they all do it.. Doesn't matter the battery I use.. My 510 mini or my twists or my provari.. all of them are music to me(whoosh crackle crackle pop!) hehe
Probably a function of the tube acting as an amplifier, just like a horn. The high frequency crackling is amplified by the tube shape but also the metal of the carto. The polyfill blocks the lower sounds, so all you get is that loud crackle.![]()
This.
The VAMO is especially noisy and airflow can be a culprit also. I vape at work in an area full of cubicles and know the sound has got to be annoying to those around me. I can usually adjust the height of my tank a smidgeon to reduce the noise but for times I can't I made a rubber gasket to mute the airflow.

I decided that annoying my co-workers was no way to promote the efficacy of e-cigs so I try to keep the noise to a minimum.
Now...if I can just get the guy across from me to chew with his mouth closed....
