There’s nothing more frustrating than excitedly ordering a brand-new vaping kit online, or else bringing your new purchase home from the shop, only to find there’s a problem with it.
Though, more often than not, what you think may be a serious issue with your vaping device can actually be something very simple. With this in mind, here are four common vaping problems and how to solve them.
There’s a Weak or Non-Existent Draw
Firstly, there are a number of simple solutions when you find little to no draw on your vape, and what’s more, some of them could completely eradicate the problem moving forward.
If you experience no draw whatsoever on your device, you need to establish that the device is turned on, and made sure the battery has enough charge, that the tank has enough e-liquid inside, and that each of the separate connections are clean and tight. Additionally, you may have unfortunately installed a faulty coil, so as a last resort, change the coil, and hopefully, you can get back to vaping in no time at all.
You Can Taste the Liquid in Your Mouth
Unequivocally, you should never be able to taste the actual liquid inside your vape when you’re using it, especially as it contains chemicals that can be harmful if consumed in large quantities.
This is why sticking to one supplier for all your vaping needs, such as the prestigious vapeglobe.co.uk, is advisable, as the advice and maintenance tips that you’re given for the device and accessories you buy will always be reliable and up to date.
If you can taste liquid in your mouth, check for the following:
- Too-thin liquid due to leaving the device in the sun for too long.
- If the coil is due to be replaced.
- Increasing the power to ensure the liquid is vapourised.
- If you’re using thin PG liquid in a vape that requires the thicker VG juice.
There’s a Weird Gurgling Noise
Every seasoned vaper will have heard that nasty sound, which indicates an issue with the tank itself when vaping, which is reminiscent of someone loudly slurping their drink.
This spitting and gurgling noise is often caused when the tank has been overfilled with e-liquid, so carefully empty some out, or else empty every drop and fill it again, this time leaving a gap between the liquid line and the top of the tank.
Make sure that the tank, as well as the entire device, is clean and there’s no dirt and debris, and failing this, shut the device off, stand it upright for at least half an hour, and then try again.
The Battery Fails
The fourth most common issue with vaping devices is that the battery simply refuses to work, rendering the device temporarily useless.
If this happens to you, then first make sure that the battery has enough charge and that you haven’t accidentally switched it off (more pertinent in the case of customisable, higher-end devices). Carefully clean the connection with a dry cotton bud, try again, and if you find that the battery is still failing, it’s time to buy a new one.
