    Tide, You have a meter that will measure ohms, you set it to measure resistance and put one probe on the center pin and the other one the outer threads. It's actually a bit of a pain since you could use a 3rd hand for help. You can always just get a SmokTech atomizer tester for about $20...

    Dice, I haven't tried it yet, but I don't see any reason why you couldn't use the Vivi atty head in the SplitFire just not vice versa since the SF head doesn't have the support rim for the silicone seal. As for the Vivi's, I'm not sure that I'm done with them. They were really good and I...

    Ok, I also just was reading a thread "wicking materials for vivi nova" and they were talking about using cotton balls for wicks and how awesome they are...well, I couldn't help myself. I went into the bathroom closet, grabbed a few and headed down to the bar in my man cave. It was really...

    Well, here you go. For everyone out there who was curious...can it be done...Parts 1 and 2 of rewicking and recoiling the SplitFire. This time with cotton yarn... I've been chain vaping with the cotton yarn wicks for about the last hour and 15 minutes...I'm down to a 1/3 of a tank already...

    Thank you. I'm new to full time vaping in the modern vaping world. About 2 - 2 1/2 years ago I got a couple of Joy Tech manual batteries, the atomizers and cartridges. I had limited juice choices and vaped for about 4 or 5 months before quitting. I didn't get into it, go on forums, etc. So...

    So, that 1st sentence was a tough read, but if I understand what you are trying to say, you have coils in the atty head which are forming large loops and standing too far off of the wick? They will get red because they don't have the juice on them to cool them off. You're in a bind if it's...

    Wow! 4.5V at 2.4? I'm using a VV but now a VV/VW device.. The Provari doesn't start dropping amps until 4.3V, but at 4.5V I'm running at something like 3.3A or 14.5W. I don't think you should be running too hot at that wattage. I run the 2.8Ohm atty at 3.9V/4.0V - 13.5-14W. Try using a pin...

    I bought 100' of NiChrome 32G (60 or 80, can't remember but the ohm per foot difference is negligible for recoiling) and 40 yards (120') of cotton #1 wick on the site that rhymes with "we play" for about $20. I figured it was enough to recoil my Vivi's about roughly 300 times, so it was a good...

    No, I watched PBusardo cover the VMax and decided to go with the Provari. I had trouble choking down the 2-bills for the Provari but then again, I drop $40-$60 a week on gadgets (clearos, atty heads, juice, wick, wire, this, that, the other thing, etc.).

    If it's non conductive,have you coated the atty head inside and out to make recoiling easier and protect against shorts?

    I didn't effect the conductivity I take it. Did you have to wire brush the threads after the coating?

    At about 4:30 here, Estarra starts rebuilding the wick & coil for a Vivi head, there heads are near identical and the process is the same except you are now wrapping two wicks, not 1. I guess I could record my next rebuild. I'm using gauze on one of my SplitFires today, I rebuilt it last night...

    I changed the heads in the videos just a few posts ago. No where remotely close to the ease of changing the Vivi Nova heads. Not impossible either, I'm just saying that it's just not a simple screw it on and go. The wicks can be a bit difficult to thread through.

    Glad I could help. I've done a little modding on the DID Minis, only rewicking and coiling on these. If you look for YouTube recoiling a VIVI Nova it's very much the same principle, just two wicks.

    For those of you who were wondering...for those who had doubt. For those who thought we couldn't do it, I say, yes we can! The 3.0/3.1ohm gauze wicked SplitFire running at 4.9V! Wicking like mad, successful on the first attempt. This was born out of having 2 bum coils out of the gate. Ripping...

    Court'snot out yet. Vivi is still a good device, especially the mini. I have an issue with wicking even on the SF. It still wicks great down to the last 1ML or so then the issue is the same as the Vivi, flipping and twisting to get the juice up higher. Also, threading the wicks through in the...

    I split the file into two and it's painful to watch...because I'm a horrible reviewer. That said, for new people looking at the Splitfire, I know I always watch whatever I can. I just had some issues to overcome with mine, I bought 2...both duds out of the box but I bought 3 replacement coils...

    Ok, I'm not a video expert, Windows Live Movie Maker helped me out. This is also my first ever YoutTube video and I APOLOGIZE sincerely for the audio quality. I will invest in a mic and speak more clearly in the future. I took time to add subtitles/captions where necessary. Apologies...
