I bought a Vision 3.5ml 2.8-3.0 Ohm Clearomizer from MadVapes to try out, and I am only getting burnt taste. I might get one draw off of it and the second is burnt. I first filled it last night and after having problems I decided to let it sit overnight so it surely would have time to wick. If I hold it upside down first I might get that one draw, but that is it. I am using a 60PG/40VG juice mix that has worked just fine on similar designs such as the CE2. I am using a VV device set really low, under 4V (unloaded), so low in fact that it is hard to believe that it is anywhere near 2.8 Ohm. If there is some trick to these let me know, I doubt I will ever buy another one but I would like to get my $8 out of this one.

Watch this. Your top part may be to far down not allowing the juice to get to the coils.

VaporChase Review - Extreme Vision from CanVape (and a high voltage experiment) - YouTube

Yes, you were apparently correct. I found a small allen wrench I pulled it up a bit and at least in a brief test it is working amazingly well at 4.5 V as long as I tip it over every few vapes. Will see if it continues to perform. It seems to produce more vapor, but less flavor than the Smoktech DC Cartos I have been using. Not sure what version of Vision this is MadVapes doesn't mention it but it looks like the one in the video with the frosted flexible tube.

I just keep laying it down to get rid of that burned taste. Definitely cannot chain vape with these. I may also be using it at too high a voltage. I can't get rid of the plastic taste either, but may just need stronger flavor juice.

I agree with all this, my opinion it is too much fuss to keep wicked and has an odd taste. It does appear rather durable, I think I will throw it in my backpack as a backup in case my carto tank fails for some reason while I am out.

I use Visions for a long time. Great cartos and yes, you CAN chain vape with these, My very simple mod is to remove (be gentle with glue around it) the silicone cap from mouth piece and replace the top silicone cap around the coil with it ( the mouth piece silicone goes upside down to cover the ceramic). The only downside is, that you have to store modded cartos vertically, they may leak otherwise. For vaping at home this method is amazing- tons of vapor and never burnt taste.

I got my first 2 Vision Extremes v3 from gotvapes friday night. I had the same problem with burnt taste after one or two hits, and had to tip them constantly. I too eased up the silicone cap and also fluffed the wicks a little bit, and they worked much better. After 2 days now, they just keep getting better and better. I barely have to tip them anymore. Nice vapor production and flavor at 4.5v on my lavatube. And believe me, with how good my Rawrvapor Banana Cream Pie is tasting in this thing, I'm chain vaping now like a maddog.

Different people perceive the same thing totally differently and have different tastes. I'm sure the mod works, but I prefer something I can throw in my bag or pocket without worrying about leaking. And also even when it was hitting well I wasn't all that impressed although it wasn't horrible either. The one thing I can say is it puts out an impressive amount of vapor, but I get good vapor with just about anything with VV.
