I haven't been doing well with vaping. I keep trying a little each day. Today, I put a few drops in, let it sit for a few minutes, went to take a vape and got a horrible shock. Scared me, and gave me an instant headache. Not sure if I'll be able to make myself try again. Has anyone had this happen to them?

Were you using a Vivi Nova?

I am assuming, you mean this is the third report of this issue ? I know.... I know what happens when one "assumes ;)

Uhmmmm.... not exactly.

I've never heard a reliable report of anyone getting a "horrible shock" by a device. Stick your tongue on a 9 volt battery and you'll get a tingle. I suppose it might be possible to do the same somehow with a 3.7 volt battery.....

Actually I think Gthompson was referring to the third suspect post he's seen today.

Provari's have built in short circuit and fault protection so the chances of something like this happening are pretty remote. That combined with the OPs low post count and limited knowledge of vaping terminology makes it it even more suspect.

I also dont see too many people dropping 200 bucks on a Provari just to try to quit smoking.Usually Provari owners are a little further along in their vaping than that.

Some may see that as rude but I call it like I see it.

Sorry, you don't believe me. It scared the crap out of me. No - I don't know much about vaping. I've had this for a couple weeks, and haven't even worn a battery down yet. My brother sent this to me. I'll let him know, or let pro-vari know. I just wanted to know if this had happened to others before. I guess it hasn't.

I didn't say I didn't believe you. what I was saying is provape has wonderful customer service and if their product was causing harm to someone I'm sure they would want to know about it and would get it fix right away.
