Sharon Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) I'm using a carto with my eGo, as I have ever since I got it last week, and today it started making a crackling noise when ever I vape. I tried changing the battery, using a different carto, and using a brand new carto, but nothing stopped it. I'm calling on the VT God's to intervene!

BirdDog Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 The battery is making a crackling sound? Cartomizers will make a crackling sound. That is normal. I have had some cartos make a little more noise than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AimeeG Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Totally normal. Don't worry. Some people love the pop and crackle and will wait for it before they inhale. Vape on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharon Posted February 3, 2011 Author Share Posted February 3, 2011 Yeah, but when I don't want anyone to know what I am doing, the crackling doesn't help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastiffmom Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I think they taste better when they crackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 What I've found is that if it don't crackle, it's not working very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanna Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Huh. I even hear crackling with direct dripping. I thought it was supposed to do that? Seems to work OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easilyamused Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 (eGo newbie here) my 1st carto didnt crackle, the next one did, as did the 3rd, i opened the 3rd thinking something was wrong with the 2nd, now im not sure lol... so now i have 3 cartos in use, and the one that doesnt crackle tastes like crap and the other two seem to work best without the cone and with the white stopper off... i know, thats most likey not a good thing to do...

juliery Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I make sure my carto IS making a crackling noise before I start vaping, otherwise it is sorta cool and I don't care for cool vapor. The crackling is just the wire in the filler heating up the liquid and it makes little bubbles that basically pop and snap against the filler. If you take the top cap off the carto and have the filler nice and soggy wet you can actually see it. It isn't boiling since it takes a lower temp for the liquid to make the bubbles, but that is sorta what I would compare it to. Just the liquid heating in the filler, that's all. No worries. Actually when that sound stops, and you put it up to your ear and is really faint, THAT is when I either change cartos OR add more liquid, because it is getting close to drying out.

juliery Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I thought it was good! I thought it was pretty clever myself, but that is only because I am not one of those witty on the spur of the moment kind of people. I think of great comebacks and witty remarks like 3 days later, LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliery Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 oh and when I typed that crackling remark....right after I hit add reply...I got a crack/snap so loud it scared me, LOL. Seriously, made such a loud pop noise I nearly tossed the thing. I think it is because this juice has VG in it, which is thicker thereby making a thicker and louder crack. It was funny though....well after my heart stopped pounding, LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
