    Vivi Nova v3 sucks

    Just got 2 new v3 Vivi Nova tanks from High Desert Vapes to try out. Never again! IMO These knockoffs suck compared to the genuine Vision brand tanks I've been using. YMMV Filling with juice is a PITA due to the small cone shaped metal piece that's mounted atop the coil and under the...

    ViVi Nova internal construction

    Has anyone torn apart a Vivi Nova or have a diagram that shows how the internals normally hidden from view are constructed? I'm particularly interested in the electrical path between the slotted pin that connects to the positive pin in the PV's 510 well, and the other end where the metal shaft...

    Question On NF DIY Flavors

    Hello Brewtus, That's why I asked you first. I thought you may have already done that and wouldn't mind sharing your findings. In the meantime I've been watching NF's web site. They've added many flavors "without Diacetyl" to their product listings but haven't yet added anything new to the...

    Question On NF DIY Flavors

    I appreciate your feedback Brewtus and didn't want to come across as being distrustful. I know how labels and ingredient lists can lead to one to believe obscure substances are not contained in a product when they really are. FYI NF's response is that most extracts are in fact Diacetyl-free...

    Question On NF DIY Flavors

    Thanks again Brewtus. I have sent them an inquiry and am hopeful it will be nothing more than an outdated web site listing. BTW There's no requirement for NF to include Diacetyl in the ingredient list even if it were in the product. Like many other ingredients Diacetyl would simply appear...

    Question On NF DIY Flavors

    Thanks for replying Brewtus. Is it fair to say that in your opinion NF's Diacetyl-free list is incomplete without containing, at least some, extracts?

    Question On NF DIY Flavors

    Two quick questions...... Apart from the higher prices for Nature Flavor's Coffee & Tea line of products, are there other reasons you chose to resell extracts instead of their Coffee & Tea products? eg: better flavor, etc. My only health concern comes from inhaling diacetyl. On NF's web...

    Nature's Flavors recipe thread

    MiamiMom63, I just looked at HDV and all their NF flavors are listed as Extracts. Interesting how you could have gotten something toally different from NF. Is it possible you got another form of the flavor from NF, like a concentrate instead of an extract? A problem I had when I started...

    Nature's Flavors recipe thread

    Has anyone purchased NF flavors from an ecig vendor and then ordered the same product directly from NF? I'm curious to know if you found them to be identical products. And what about shelf life, is there anything on the genuine NF label that gives a clue?

    Nature's Flavors recipe thread

    Can't believe I read this entire thread. I've been looking into Nature's Flavors recently as a means to match some of the Virgin Vapor premixes I like but want to DIY. Read a lot about the question of Diacetyl but don't recall reading what the outcome was. I'm not sure if this is new to their...

    The "No Smoking, No Vaping" sign pic

    To the best of my knowledge the no-smoking ban (at least in Philadelphia) is a result of constant exposure to 2nd hand tobacco smoke being harmful to employees mostly and customers to a lesser extent. But over time people (particularly non-smokers) seem to have twisted the original intent of...

    How are nictotine levels measured?

    The 12mg tag actually means 12mg/ml (12 milligrams per milliliter). This is a weight-to-volume measure so it's easy to find how much nicotine (by weight) is contained in any given bottle size. Thus a 10ml bottle of 12mg liquid would contain 120mg of nicotine, a 50ml bottle would contain 600mg...

    Into & a question about Vivi Nova 2.8 ohm head

    AttyPops, It's plenty wet. It soaked for a couple hours and I've taken my time vaping a full tank on & off, still snap/crackle/pop. I doubt it's water at this point as I don't let condensation build up. I was thinking water may be in the VV 50/50 liquid I was using, but it doesn't crackle...

    Into & a question about Vivi Nova 2.8 ohm head

    Thanks for all the replies. I didn't find crackling that offensive but rather as an indicator that something's different about the 2.8 ohm head. Hissing & spitting are more to my liking and what I've come to expect, but without having to cut down the voltage. If the wicks are in fact designed...

    Into & a question about Vivi Nova 2.8 ohm head

    Hi all. I'm new to the forum and have been vaping for about 2-1/2 months and digging it. I use a Lava Tube at home, and have an Inferno for carrying around. Smoked 3-1/2 packs/day Marlboro Light 100's and really enjoying the cost savings:-) I've diverted some of the savings to DIY supplies...
