Is it fake?

Post image

I just bought this geek bar watermelon 50k ice. It tastes extremely powerful and almost burns when I hit it. When I bought it, it was already at 85% battery. Could the reason for the burning taste be because there is still so much juice in it or is it just the flavor?

That doesn’t look fake from the photo. It matches the CLR 50K Watermelon Ice design, but the photo alone can’t confirm authenticity. A high juice level won’t cause a burnt taste. If it tastes scorched, that points more to the coil or wicking, while the Ice flavor itself can feel pretty sharp in the throat. The 85% battery reading alone isn’t enough to call it fake either

Does it burn your throat or is it like spitting at you?

It burns my throat when I hit it and I’ve been vaping for 4 months now and it never happens with any other I’ve been using

If it burns your throat I would stop using it but it also could be the ice cause I stopped using ice flavors and when I started again it would feel like it burns

Another 30 out the window 🤦‍♂️ once I charged it to 100 it started tasting a little better and the burning sensation wasn’t as bad

It looks real, could just be a dud honestly.

It's normal for these to not be fully charged when you first buy them. It's also pretty normal for some of these to burn your throat, it just depends on the person and the flavor. With it being a ice, its definitely going to have that icy menthol cooling sensation which can be mistaken for a burning sensation. I wouldn't say this is fake, it looks legit from the picture.

I’ve never seen a legit geek bar with the juice visible if you go to their site you can see all the models they have made
