Guide on How to Fix Disposable Vape

Jan 4, 2023

The disposable vape industry is gaining popularity worldwide, different brands of disposable vape have flooded the markets, making it easier to get lost in the ocean of vape brands. High-quality and reliable disposable vape brands like LINVO are increasingly becoming difficult to find. If you have problems with your vapes and are unsure what to do about them, you can refer to our guides on common vape problems.

Here Is A Rundown of The Common Problems with Disposable Vapes We Will Discuss in This Piece.

* Disposable Vape Not Hitting

* Disposable Vape Weak Hits

* Dead Battery

* Disposable Vape Leaking (Liquid Run Out)

* The airflow Sensor Isn’t Sensitive

* Disposable Vape Burned Flavor

* Block the Airflow Vent

* Break Air Bubbles

Let’s look at each of these problems and how to fix them.

Disposable Vape Not Hitting/Disposable Vape Weak Hits

Top on the list of problems that disposable vapes throw at vapers is that they stop hitting or produce weak hits. When your disposable vape stops hitting, here are the possible causes you should look into:

1. Air bubbles are trapped around the coil or in the cartridge

If your disposable vape is not firing or hitting as it should, it could be that air bubbles are trapped in the cartridge and around the coil, hindering airflow. While this may cause you so much inconvenience, the solution to this problem will most likely stun you — give it a tap. Yes, you read that right. Repeatedly but gently tap where the cartridge is located. Doing so will free up the air passage and restore airflow in the unit.

2. Debris is clogging the mouthpiece and hindering airflow

Another culprit to look out for is debris. Because disposable vapes are portable and can fit almost anywhere (pockets and bags) while you are on the move, it is not unusual to pick up debris (including fluff and dust particles) that can clog the mouthpiece. One way to deal with this is to assess the airway and use a safety pin or toothpick to remove debris.

3. You bought a fake disposable vape

Last but not least, you might have bought yourself a fake disposable vape. Because of the ocean of vapes or e-cigarettes available in the market at ridiculously low prices, you might end up purchasing a low-quality or outright fake vape. Another possibility is faulty internal components like the coil and battery. Often, this could be due to prolonged stay in the manufacturer’s warehouse or mishandling/dropping during transportation. Whatever the case, investing in a new disposable vape would do you a lot more good and save you the stress of waiting for repairs and replacement parts.

Dead Battery: Is Your Battery Getting Drained Fast?

Could your battery be dead? When you draw on your vape, you should see an indicator light glowing or lighting up on the vape. If this light isn’t coming on, it is usually a sign that your battery is drained. This isn’t much of a big deal if your vape is rechargeable — in this case, you can charge it, and it will be up and running. However, suppose your unit is not rechargeable. In that case, that usually spells the end of that unit, and you would be better off getting yourself a new disposable vape with a more robust battery capacity.

While you are at it, you should also bear in mind other factors that run down disposable vape batteries:

Overcharging

Exposing the unit to high temperatures

Bringing the unit in contact with metals, and

Tearing the battery wrapper

Liquid Run Out

Just as humans require oxygen to function, disposable vape needs their e-liquid to work — after all, that is where the flavor is and the source of the cloud when you puff. If your disposable vape is not delivering enough hits when your draw, you should check how much e-liquid you have left in your tank. Top up if the level is low or change the tank if you are out — virtually every disposable vape cartridge/pots are removable. An empty tank may make your vape seem broken.

Is e-liquid escaping to the mouthpiece?

This can be caused by storing the vape sideways or upside down instead of sitting it upright. Allowing your vape to lye sideways can cause the liquid to escape into the vaporization chamber. When this happens, the atomizer will lose its ability to deliver big hits because of the chamber’s oil shortage. As such, pumping excess oil into your mouth when you pull.

Tip: Always refill your disposable vape cartridge at 45 degrees

Another instance of where you could be losing liquid is overtightening the vape pen threading (which could break the threading seal and cause oil to leak out) and during refill. Liquid can get into the middle chamber during refill and result in leakage. To avoid leakage, incline the pot at 45 degrees while refilling and avoid overfilling. Another tip is leaving small room for a vacuum at the top of the cart — it helps deliver great hits.

The Airflow Sensor Isn’t Sensitive

The vape flow sensor is another crucial component of a disposable vape, and it plays the vital role of activating the coil (the heating element) when you inhale. Once the sensor activates the heating element, it increases the temperature in the chamber to about 100–250 °C (212–482 °F) to create an aerosolized vapor which is inhaled instead of the usual smoke from cigarettes.

Having understood how the vape flow sensor works, you can imagine the role of the airflow sensor in disposable vapes. The airflow sensor is designed to deliver a customized vaping experience by regulating the airflow going into the atomizer.

The job of the airflow sensor is to regulate the flavor payout from the chamber to your mouth. The idea is simple, the higher the airflow, the smoother the hits because the liquid vaporizes faster. However, you get to taste less flavor.

What low airflow translates to is more juice getting evaporated. In a nutshell, if the sensor isn’t sensitive to regulate airflow, you’re most likely not getting a satisfactory vaping experience and are probably running out of juice faster than usual. What is the solution? Get the airflow sensor replaced.

Disposable Vape Burned Flavor

If your disposable vape is pumping out burned flavor (disposable vape tastes burnt), it is a sign that there isn’t enough juice or e-liquid on the wick. When there isn’t enough liquid on the wick, it results in dry hits (caused by insufficient e-liquid on the wick) and burnt hits (caused by a combusted wick).

In the case of the former, the vaper gets less flavor and less exhales, while the latter delivers a mouthful of burnt flavor due to continuous vaping after getting dry hits — this can be unpleasant and harsh on the throat.

In addition to insufficient e-liquid on the wick, another cause of vape burnt flavor is incorrect wattage settings. You can fix this by:

Increasing the wattage —  increasing heat vaporizes the liquid faster and delivers better hits

Take a break when you experience a dry hit

Allow the atomizer to get saturated before taking hits —  medium puffs between 15 seconds to 20 seconds interval works perfectly

Block the Airflow Vent

Blocking disposable airflow vent is one way of treating yourself to a pleasurable and memorable vaping experience. Blocking the airflow vent reduces the exposure or contact of the vapor coming hot out of the vaporizer with room-temperature air, as such, treating you to smoother and tasty hits.

How tight you want to block the airflow vent is dependent on your vaping style — if you vape Mouth-To-Lung (MTL), Direct Lung (DL), or you are a Cloud Chaser. It is always best to experiment and settle for what works best.

Break Air Bubbles

In addition to delivering disposable vape weak hits, having air bubbles in your cartridge or around the base of the wick hinders the absorption of e-liquid. What this translates to are a defective cartridge and an unpleasant vaping experience.

It doesn’t matter how hard you haul on the mouthpiece; if there are air bubbles around the wick, they make it almost impossible for the coil to function correctly — Thereby starving you of your desired vaping experience. Thankfully, there is an easy fix for this — break the air bubbles. How?

It is as simple as it sounds; blow hot air into the cartridge! If you do this correctly, you will notice movements as the concentrates heat up and liquefy. While that is happening, the bubbles should make their way from the bottom of the wick to the surface, where they’ll eventually pop/break. And voila, your problem is solved.
