Just got my IBtanked..love it...but have a question!

[yorkiegirl]

I have primed my carto, inserted it into my IBtanked, and filled the tank with liquid. It is vaping great and great flavor, no leaking at all but each time I take a drag I hear like a hissing type noise. Does anyone know why it's making this noise and is there a fix? If not that's fine. I can definitely live with it. I'm just trying to make sure I haven't done something incorrectly.

That is just the nature of cartos they pop and sizzle when the coil heats up. I have heard some brands are less noisy but I have not found one that is. So no you did nothing wrong unless you hear the gurgle then it is of course flooded.

Thanks so much for your quick reply. I'm really loving this carto tank. I'm really glad I made this purchase.

Yep, that's just the sound of a happy carto vaporizing lots of juice. Some juices will make more noise than others, too.

What battery device are you using?

 

[bcalvanese]

I love that sound.

It means you did everything right...

 

[Myrany]

When I am not using a dripper (or bottom feeder dripper), I am using a carto tank. Wonderful simplicity. The sound is music to my ears.

I'm using it on my Provari.

I use the IBTanked tanks on my Provari Minis as well and just love love love them! Congrats on getting one and doin it right. I too enjoy the sounds I hear. Kinda reminds me of a nice warm fire. Warms my wee lil heart it does

Did you get the 19mm. They fit and look so good on the Provari. And it makes such a wonderful match. (is it legal to have a Provari and a tank get married?) (HUM. which one would be the bride and which one the groom). Ok I got WAY off topic.
Congrats on the new tank. I see more in your future.

Lol. Thanks. I got the 19mm XL tank. The Provari performs so well and is so consistent that it would have to be the bride lol but wait so does the IBTanked. You got me on that one. I see more in my near future too.

Love IBTanked! Yep, the sizzle appears to be normal. I love it because that sizzle is intolerable to my husband. He likes how they vape, but he hates the sound. This means he won't be stealing them and he'll stick with the Mini Protank II's he's already stolen. Of course, he can have them all now for all I care.

I have the 19xls on my mini too and I love them! For some reason the first carto I prepped makes more of a sizzly hiss than the subsequent ones. Don't know if it was my priming technique or the carto - I did reprime it, because first time around it was so loud we couldn't watch TV LOL

The provari is so beautiful it would have to be the bride.

At the risk of stating the obvious, the IBTank is male threaded and the ProVari is Female. I love my IBTank as well, but still need a ProVari to go with it. You need to post pics now!!!

I'm guessing, since it's your first tank, that you got the cartos from IBTanked, too.
They're good, and a good price. But they're flanged - so you've got a space there between the tank and the ProVari cap, right?
My THEORY is that this contributes to an IBTanked/ProVari setup being NOISY!
I've got other setups with a flusher fit - or with a "Ring" to cover that space - and it's like a muffler - runs a little quieter.

Next time I get an IBTanked tank, I'm getting a 22mm and the IBT-Pro ring to go with it.

I have a 22 XL for my mini. I recently read that people have trouble with certain carto-tanks leaking in cold weather. I went snowboarding today. My IBT tank sat in my truck for about 5 hours in low 20 degree temps. Not a single drop leaked. Vaped perfectly as soon as I returned to my truck.

I'm using it on my Provari.

See, that's your problem right there!! What you need to do is get yourself one of those fancy eGo batteries, and you'd be set. Provari's are the worst for carto-tanks. You know, I'll do you a favor. Since I have a few extra eGo batts laying around here, if you send me your Provari, I will happily send you several of the better eGo's, a charger, and a heartfelt thank-you note......

There is a gap, you're right - oh dear, I feel another order coming on....

Heh heh heh... I placed an order for non flanged, Boge prepunched cartos a couple days ago, specifically for the gap. Also bought a beauty ring that may work. And some other drip tips. And a ton of juice from Ahlusion because I heard they're good and there's a sale....
