More info plz. What ohms/device?
Is it dry? Not wicking? Is it gurgling? Any idea?
Are you doing the "tip and roll" making sure the wick is wet? Did you accidently put the silicone cap on upside down? The flat side goes toward the coil.

I saw a tip on them once make sure your rubber cap isnt pinching your wick that could cause the problem your having Good luck hope you get it fixed!
This makes no sense. Sorry. You should know the answers to those questions.......at least most of em. Outta here. Good Luck!
Fake an emergency and get to the nearest ecig retailer. This is a lesson for everyone ... backups for the backups -we all learned this one the hard way.
It seems like it is wicking slow.
Try taking a couple primer puffs before you press the button.
This may help get you through until you can work on it at your leisure.

unscrew the top, pull the little silicon cap off, drip a couple of drops of liquid on the coil, put the silicon cap back on, screw the top back on and see if that helps at least temporarily.
Sounds like that head is not wicking properly. I've had a couple that did that.

If it was a new head, why should it be broken in?
Did you clean it before you started using it? If you don't, the heads can take a few tanks of juice to break in……basically 'till they need to be cleaned anyway.
my bad. im using a provari with a 2.8 head, at 4.2-4.4 volts. its never done this before. so maybe ill try boiling it or something
I use an alcohol soak (for the head, not me. Lol) and a boiling, for cleaning, even on a new head to remove anything that may be on it. I'm a little over cautious but it works for me. Some heads do take a little longer for the coils to find their best performance.
so whats the deal with that lil paper thingy on the coil? i have never noticed one before? i took it out with tweezers and its starting to do better???
I'm assuming you know your stuff about voltage, resistance, and wattage.
The reason is most probably the fact that the wick has coils that are touching together. This is referred to as "hotspots" and it's nigh unvapeable. Expose the wick and adjust the coils. Keep them close, but not so close that they touch. Problem solved. Next?
Sounds like a dry cart to me try dripping some juice eight on the coil

I rarely go over 3.8v with my vivi novas. The provari uses a PUlse width modulation. This means it varies the length of a 6v pulse to effectively produce the equivalent of the voltage desired. You may find yourself finding a lower voltage to be more to your liking. Start low and work your way up till you get the desired results. You may have burned your wick in which case it will never lose the burnt taste.
It's there to insulate the coil and the exposed wires (mostly the + side) from the barrel of the head. I've taken some of them out as they do char/burn/singe easily, and I don't plan on using them when I rebuild, but I haven't noticed a huge difference with or without lately. Maybe I've been lucky……I remember an improvement when I took one out of a head.
I'm not sure exactly how their circuitry works, but the Provari puts out a pretty much flat signal. It uses PWM as part of the circuitry, but plugging one onto a scope looks nothing like the other PWM mods out there. So it's not just firing at 6V and varying the duty cycle.
And based on my experience, 4.2-4.4V on a 2.8 ohm head is not that high. I run my 1.8 ohm heads higher than that and don't get burning flavor.
ok so this is what i found out...!!! i own two mini vivi's, and just recently got the regular size (3.5ml). for some reason the mini's are so much better and smoother! i put that head into one of my minis and it works great! that sucks because now i have to keep refilling throughout the day... oh well
Weird. I didn't notice a single difference in the vape b/t the mini and my fulls except that the mini held less juice and broke when I dropped it.
