I've just successfully recoiled my first vivi nova!! Using 5 wraps of 0.2 nichrome and 4 strands of 1mm silica from cloud9 vaping. The only thing is it tastes slightly weird! AM I supposed to do something to prime the silica or will the taste improve as I vape?

AM I supposed to do something to prime the silica or will the taste improve as I vape? Wow...well done. I have some wick and wire on the way from cloud9. I got the 2ml silica and the thicker (lower resistance?) of the 2 Kanthal wires. Can't help with your Q? but it's all interesting. Nice. ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/2973975/images/30yfTjP3QPippj7hX3wK.gif)

Having vaped on it a bit longer now I can state the funky taste diminishes and I'm left with a fab vape!
I know people recoil all the time and it's silly to get excited about it, but last time I tried I put it on battery and it went pop and didn't work, that knocked my confidence and I resigned myself to the fact I'd have to pay for spare heads, but collected all my old ones to see if I could maybe pay someone to do them for me. I decided the other day to have one last go, ordered my goods and went for it and it worked!
So yeah I'm pretty pleased with myself and now going to coil some more so I'll have spares!

With regards to the funky taste, it's most likely the wick. It will dissipate after a while- just make sure you keep it well soaked ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)
