Troubleshooting Tips & Tricks For Common Cartridge Vape Problems

Troubleshooting is inevitable! Just like with other certain electronics, vaporizers sometimes have certain issues that must be fixed. Instead of giving up on your vaporizers right away, try to sort out the problem and understand where the troubleshooting is coming from.

Consider keeping your vapes at room temperature—avoid leaving your device inside your car or any place where temperatures fluctuate from hot to cold. Make sure to also store your devices upright, as this could help your vape’s performance.

Why does my vaporizer taste burnt?

Most vaporizers feature a variable voltage setting. Once in a while, try reducing your temperature to a lower setting to avoid difficulties. For single-button vaporizers, rapidly press the button three times to change your temperature cycle between low, medium and high.

Why is my vape not working?

When your device shifts functions, this could mean several issues. First, try to check the holes in the cartridge, as it may be clogged with oil. Try rubbing your cartridge between your hands to warm up the oil and change its cohesiveness. Another trick is to use a safety pin or anything slim enough to poke through, and gently insert it in the hole to unclog the cartridge.

If your vape is still causing issues, make sure the battery is turned on and fully charged.

Why is there no vapor coming out of my vape?

Sometimes cartridges aren’t properly attached onto the vaporizer. The 510-thread connection on the cartridge may be too tightened or too loose. This can happen if the cartridge is removed and restored on the device multiple times. Make sure that your vape and cartridge are just about right when they are attached—this allows proper airflow distribution.

Additionally, often inspect the interior of your device, as it may be clogged or coated. If so, wipe the areas with a dab swab and rubbing alcohol. Let the area dry and reconnect your favorite cartridge to your vape to try again.
