New to vaping, have some questions

[axl26]

Hello all!
I've generally been a hookah fan. When my friend showed me an e-cig for the first time, I knew I wanted one.
After some time, I head down to a local vape shop thinking of grabbing some little e-cig to get me started, but after some talking, and since I knew it was something I was really interested in, I ended up picking up an iTaste SVD. I like it a lot, but I do have a bit of a qualm after a bit of use.
The taste just isn't what I want it to be.

When I vape some of the tester juices at shops, the flavor is so bold and strong. When I vape them on my mod and in my tank, they have but a fraction of the flavor they had when I tested them.

What could be causing this?
I've been playing with my wattage, everything from 5-10 watts and 3-5.5 volts.
My tank is an Aspire Et-s pyrite Bdc. It is at 1.8 ohms.

Forgive me if the answer to my problem is obvious, I am still quite new to this, thank you.

Not sure, but I do know that my local B&M doesn't add nic to their testers. They add the nic when you order the juice. If they put nic in all their 200 testers people would end up with a nic high. Also the testers you tried may have already steeped somewhat & if they mixed your juice fresh it could take a few days or weeks to steep. Also always shake your bottles every time you fill your tank so the flavors are nice & blended. Good luck & VAPE ON
