Vivi nova taste like metal

[snooke_master]

Hi,

Anyone experience this...? I just popped new coil for my vivi nova, it taste like soap metal... Tried using lower voltage with my ego twist batt and soaking/washing the coil... That weird metallic taste just don't go away...

 

[Okay]

need to break in the coil...

 

[snooke_master]

Eeeeeer... Break in the coil...? How...?

Did tou make sure coil and wick was wet with juice before vaping? Its impt.

 

[Okay]

for new or cleaned clearomizers, i 'll let the juice sit in for half hour to make sure it is well wicked before vaping especially for just cleaned ones. sometimes the metal taste will still be there but will go away after a tank.

 

[snooke_master]

Yeah the wick is definitely wet... The taste is not burnt taste, it's metal taste LOL...

 

[Ace of Spades]

if like that means DOA uh...i think ... or there are problems with the wicking itself

What about changing the flavors? Sometimes separations in flavors that you are not used to may come across as unpleasant. When I drip tribecca with my boge carts they come across as tobaccy and sweet. With my rebuildable dripper (no polyfil) it tastes like gula melaka burning!

Your coils probably cost less than 20cents to manufacture in China so I am not gonna be wild about their QC yah? I suspect the resistance varies between coils and manufacturing oils and residues are not exactly cleaned out.

Happen to me a few times using clearo,actually most clearo have this kind of metal taste,like what they say.Wait for it to break in or simply chainvape it but don't inhale,solve my problem but for some just throw it away or leave it for a few days and see if it helps.Or maybe use stronger juice?

Follow this link, you will see that my personal views on these clearos are not really personal.

I would remove the silicone cap and check to see if the coiled wire is close to the metal side. I have had this once and it caused a metal taste like you describe. If that is the case, just use a small tool to move it over and try it again. Good luck!

I have a 2.5 VN still in the package ... still waiting for my VV to come in , hopefully i will not get the same metal taste as yours.

 

[Okay]

if it's new, chances of tasting metal is high but i may be wrong....my new clearomizer tasted metal as well but today the vape is very good....no more metal flavor.

Its from your wire, try to heat it with a loghter till it glows red before you wrap your wick!

New carto need to run in , usually after 2nd refill will be better.

I think I know why; it could be from either the coil or the wick.

I remember watching some videos somewhere, I think by Shan on YouTube, she takes a lighter and burn the wick (those 'wind proof' lighters) to burn way the chemicals in the wick. Since ViVi is mass produced, there could be some on the wick as well. Therefore, you take out your Nova, wash it till there's no more juice (to prevent contamination again) and then wash the wick and burn it. Like just take a lighter and run through it.

You're right bro, i solved the problem, it's the coil... Their coil is lower grade, i.e. lower max temperature, after i replace the coil, no more metal taste....
