Oh no! Now I'm probably going to need one of those Vivi Nova bcc's! Only thing is, I ordered the kit with the mini tank and haven't even tried that one yet! I wasn't sure if the replacement coils included with the E-Max worked on the mini tank? I read that they don't on the Vivi Nova. Where do you get new coils for the tanks> I didn't see them on the E-Max site.. did I just miss them? Also.. you mentioned how good the Vivi Nova is on a variable voltage system. Are there any that aren't GIANT??? I bought a dial-a-volt (in medium size) the same time I bought my E-Max kit... and don't like the dial-a-volt at all! It's like vaping a giant stick! And the worst part was I could have bought 2 extra E-Max kits for what I paid for it!
Hiya mixxy. Yeah, the E-Max tank coils won't work on this particular Vivi Nova bcc... and unfortunately, this Vivi Nova bcc is pretty much in a class by itself... (because of it's 'unique' design.. refer to photo)
I can't even find any 'other' suppliers of this particular 'unique design' Vivi Nova bcc, (at least here in the US), other than MaxVaper, so needless to say I haven't been able to locate replacement coils either. However! I do KNOW they are rebuild-able, so I was thinking about doing a YouTube VID demonstrating just that. I'm still vaping my FIRST one that I obtained about 3 weeks ago and it's still performing like it did on day one, so at $11.99 a pop if they all perform at this incredible rate of performance it's still a very sweet deal. Would you like to see a VID on how to rebuild one? If I could stir up enough interest I'd be happy to create one?
As for a 'smaller' Variable Voltage Mod, perhaps an eGO spinner? EastCoast-Technologies - Smallest Variable Voltage eCig: Vision Spinner 400 mAh Review
... Maybe a ProVari Mini (if you want the best of the very best) - ProVari Variable Voltage Ecig: Best Variable Voltage E Cig Available!
You could try Googling 'mini variable voltage eCig' and find others perhaps?
Sorry you don't like the 'dial a volt' .... give it a shot... dial it to 4 volts and pop that Vivi Nova bcc on there and then get back with me and tell me what you think.
It's not always what looks good that works good... YKWIM?
