Vivi Nova not firing on MVP

[ubercrow]

What do? The iClear that came with it fires, and so does my smoktech pyrex Vivi Nova. The Vision Vivi Nova won't fire.

Check the connector pin on the bottom of your Vivi, it may need to be unscrewed a little bit to make a proper connection. Or you may need to take a small flat head screwdriver to the connector inside of your MVP and raise it up a smidge.

So I just stick a screwdriver in the bottom and turn?

Use an eyeglass screwdriver and only try 1/4 to 1/2 turn to the left. this lowers it. If you turn it to the right it raises it. Hence, righty tighty, lefty loosey.

lol

I used the screwdriver method to lower/raise (depending on how you look at it) the connector pin on my ViviNova Mini. But I found the eyeglass screwdriver blades too narrow. I ended up using one of the smaller flathead screwdrivers in my multi-tool, a 1/8" in width. It worked, but a 3/16" would have been a bit better.

Like Khilbron said: "Or you may need to take a small flat head screwdriver to the connector inside of your MVP and raise it up a smidge." Sometimes the connector in the battery gets pushed down slightly. You can bring it up using a slim tool like a jeweler's screwdriver, levering gently from a few sides to avoid tilting the connector. I've fixed quite a few eGOs this way, but I've never used an iTaste so I don't if this technique will work on your device.

Yes, it does(raising the center pin on the device). I had to on my MVP once or twice. And I must have bigger eyeglasses cause mine works. LOL
