what type of device are you using? What is the resistance of your atty? Is it a variable voltage device... what it sounds like is you're putting too many watts through it, but this cannot be determined without knowing the volts your device is putting out and the ohms of your atty. I had this very issue and found that lowering the voltage or raising the ohms did the trick.
I am using the Vapor King eTank series model.

The atomizer and battery I am using are the ones that came with the kit, so I'm assuming they were designed to be used together.

Unfortunately Im not familiar with the etank. But i can say that I tend to use the watts of a 3.7v with a LR atty (1.5ohm) as my baseline and then play around that wattage to find what I like. the calculation I use (and there is tons of great stuff on the forum in much more detail around this) is W=V2/R Watts=Volts squared/Resistance The wattage baseline I am talking about is 9.13. You can go higher than this or lower up to you. But I found that I had the same symptoms you are facing at 5v with a provari using a 2.2 ohm atty Watts=11.36. Your device is a 5v device so you will want to test the ohms on your atty. Others may have better information, but this is what I found. Usually a hot atty means you are using too high of power (Watts). Not sure if its a coinsidence or not but the issues I was having with my attys were attys from Vapor Kings as well. Hopefully this helps a bit. Maybe some other folks can chime in if they have better info. Good luck!
My very first kit was the Vapor King eTank. I only used it for two weeks, but I did notice the atty getting very hot if used heavily. I made a conscious effort to take 2 or 3 hits and let it cool down for a bit.
I got a Riva 1100 (better battery life), and was planning on using the VK as a backup. However, right before the Riva got delivered my battery charger for the VK just died. Wouldn't charge at all. Then I started getting into mods.
I started on a Riva w/ atomizers and remember getting frustrated at them interfering w/ my vaping when I needed to vape heavy to get off the ciggies.
Best thing was to go to BogeLR's, and even tho they're a better, hotter vape, they never get overly hot. Never looked back..........

My favorite with the Riva batts is the Echo-E cartos. Great vapor, and they hold a lot of liquid.
If you're not gonna go varivolt (provari is my favorite) I like the bombshell with some AW 18650 high drain batteries. Get some LR cartos and use a tank ( I like the Jtank) or the MAP DCT. The tank is key. Keeps your carto perfectly moist so you dont over heat the coil and you get a nice vape everytime. Just my opinion...
