    Help with atty not making good contact.

    Have you tried all of the suggested solutions? Things are often misunderstood or mis-communicated on the net . Since it is your first atty, there is a technique learning curve . I have found when dripping that the attys will need to be blown out occasionally for optimal performance . Without...

    Help with atty not making good contact.

    Possibly flooded? Try blowing it out in napkin put 2/3 drops in. Also if it has leaked you may need to remove from battery and clean center post of juice.Last thing I got is since its your first maybe popped the coil.Try to check the ohms on it.

    KGO Battery Positive Post Connection Issue - halp plz!

    You could also just pull out center post from the get and use an awl or something to push out the board from the top side. The rubber button is just a cover (is was on mine) pull it out to make removal easier. Good luck .I would n't be comfortable with just one battery either. You can use wire...

    KGO Battery Positive Post Connection Issue - halp plz!

    I only have a suggestion that might work. If I were facing this dilemma, I'd take side cutters and sever the neg and positive wires to have room to work. Run a hobby knife around hot glue . Pull out circuit board. I had an ego knock-off once and the culprit was the soldering of the pos. wire to...

    How long do your batteries last before they can barely hold a charge?

    No , I don't think it is normal. A few factors to consider are as follows: -Do you leave your batteries or ProVari in a hot location such as in the car for long periods of time? -Do you have more than two batteries in your rotation? -If you are letting them fully discharge every time before...

    I have some new juices coming in and I want to get the best juice flavor possible! Cartomizers? Tanks?

    Sorry, I completely missed the first line about you using the Vivi. I have found cotton mesh to be hit and miss.YMMV.

    I have some new juices coming in and I want to get the best juice flavor possible! Cartomizers? Tanks?

    Ok , you don't want to drip and the carto tanks leaked . The next thing to try are Vivi Nova 2.5 tank (no stuffing) or Phoenix rebuild-able atomizer.The Phoenix requires dripping ,though not as often as regular atomizers. These are the least expensive options. Others will follow to share their...
