Just started vaping and my Vivi Nova tastes like burning and just not nice!

Forget to tell you....be very careful with the dry burn. Hold for short 2second bursts. I did this maybe 2 times when I used them. If you hold it down too long you will burn the wick & it's trash at that point. Put another wick on & try it out.

wow interesting facts.... most you need is only a 2 second burst unless you are super strong and can draw for more than 3 to 5 seconds.. Hahahahaha....

I was following a french forums about some eliquid I am interested in (El Toro) and some people had problem with their Vivi using them.

Good to know... which means can't mix and match liquid and have to stick to a standard.

Thanks for the help people

It's now working much better.

I had a brand new 1.8ohm wick on and it was terrible, put a 2.4 back on and its much much better. Tastes lovely

Thanks for the tips! Happy now

Bit worrying that the "hit" I've been getting on the back of my throat is burning wick. Thought that was the nicotine. Its so much smoother now

Good to know! Next step is to try another clearo with a warmer vapor such as a Kanger T2 for instance !
I like my Mini Vivi with fruit flavor juice and the T2 for tobacco liquids.

Tilt your Novas. Always tilt your Novas folks.

No wonder I've had a sore throat today

Looking forward to the Kanger arriving.

I've spoke to a friend and he said dont bother with the tobacco flavours they're never close to real smoking tobacco. Are there any good ones out there?

And dont dry burn your wick. Thats just asking for it.

However slightly burnt wick will not affect your hits.

Also, If your eGo is a Twist you need to play around with the voltage to find the sweet spot. Not all flavors are good at 4.8 volts.

Good info here. I burnt out my first wick with thick juice so know better now.

You will never find a liquid close to real smoking tobacco since the taste is mainly from the burning process that vaping doesn't have.
But it seems that there are really good juice with a good tobacco flavour, but not in the sense of analog cig, more in the smell of a real tobacco leaf

I'll have to try one see how I go with it

Got BlackJack coming tomorrow, cant wait to try, yum

It's not really related to the vaping as such, but when I gave up smoking cigarettes, everything tasted funny after the first couple of days. Coffee, tea, bread....

I then realised that I was actually getting some sense of smell and taste back, so I just hadn't noticed what things really tasted like as a heavy smoker.

Maybe that's the problem? (Even though I wouldn't really say it's a problem

Been vaping now for nearly a year, but I'm always pretty skint, so haven't tried much in the way of hardware, but have been through a lot of flavours and they are pretty consistent in my ego-t copy unless the battery is going flat or the tanko needs a new wick/ coil.
