I got my wicks and wire from steammonkey.

Now, the official vivi nova heads will last 2-ish weeks before they gum up so bad they taste terrible.

The ones I'm making are roughly the same resistance, or a little higher.... but they gum up WAY, WAY faster, and they start to taste pretty funky.

Anyone have any idea why? What might I be doing wrong here?

Could I just have low quality wick, or kanthal?
