Do you have a volt meter? Perhaps you're getting more than 5 volts. If the current isn't regulating you could be as high as 7.4 volts. You could also try cleaning the connecter on the device and the atty real good. This can cause a burnt taste sometimes.
Can you indicate what 5v mod this is? generic plastic box would help to know? Like mist said would help if you had a meter also to measure volts? What reg atomizers are you testing with and what ohm are they, if you know?
it's a glv1,I don't have a multimeter,but today I'll see if I can find one in town
It's very possible it's pumping out more volts then I think,because there is a huge difference between it and my 4.8 box mod. I'm using regular 901 attys,but I have no idea what OMH they are,not that it helps,but it happens no matter which atty I try

And to answer your question, yes, this can be normal for 5v. Depends on the atty used..
Sounds like the GLV might be putting out more than 5v but I cant tell for sure. I would suggest trying a 3.5ohm atty on it before sending it back to Jay at Greatlakesvapor to look at. Is the 901 you are using Low resistance or reg? I have had that happen with my GLV using a reg atty at about 2.2.-2.4 ohms also.
Ikenvape has some good 3.5ohm 901s if thats the atty you like.. I would try that before sending it in for repair.
Sounds like you may or may not have a problem. The GLV is a great PV and you might just have a case of using to low a resistant atty on it. Try a HV atty about 3.5 ohms.. You should see a huge difference.
Having a meter is always good for these type things..
