I'm sure you clicked on this expecting another "Primer tastes so nasty, how the hell do I get rid of the taste!?", so I'm sorry to mislead you.

I recently started vaping a few days ago, bought a Riva 510 kit from Liberty Flights, and am loving it. I didn't know new atomizers were supposed to taste bad though - and I was thrilled with my first few puffs of my first one because it had this wonderful tobacco pipe taste. I've never actually smoked a tobacco pipe, but I love the smell of them - and my fresh atomizer tasted just like a pipe smells! Like sweet gorgeous leather-bound book room classy English dude puffing away.

Well it went away pretty quick, and in the few days I've been vaping Green Tea on the only atomizer I've ever used, I totally forgot how awesome those first few "puffs" were. I started getting a recurring burnt taste on my first atomizer after only a few puffs of a fresh cart (I know they shouldn't die so quick, probably just needs cleaning), so I threw in the other atomizer that came with the starter kit.

Oh my goodness. I need to find out what juice LF primes their attys with! Unless it's Chinese Toxi-Lead and I should be locked up for thinking it tastes good.

Anyone know any good juice that tastes just like pipe smoke smells? Or even better, what LF drips on their attys before they ship?

On a side note, anyone get any sharp kidney pain from vaping? I know it dehydrates like a .... and have upped my fluid intake, but today I've been getting periodic cramping at the top of my left kidney, right where my ribcage ends. Controversial subject I know - and I'm positive vaping's better than analogues, but any kidney pain from anyone ever? May just be coincidental, but I haven't had kidney issues in a decade and it's the only negative feeling I've encountered since starting a few days ago. I don't get them if I don't vape for a few hours, and then within minutes of it they start back up again. Again, might just be coincidental - just checking.

Thanks all! Love this forum so so much.

I doubt that liberty flights does anything to their attys, they are just an importer/reseller.

I have tried the French pipe flavored juice from a few vendors and it is very good initially. It is one of the most tobacco like flavors I have tried. I have only tried it as a 100% PG flavor. I am a former pipe smoker and the flavor is fairly realistic.

I have not heard of anyone else with similar symptoms, you should see a doctor if they persist.

Good luck.
