I personally do not recommend chocolates or carmel flavors in a ViVi Nova, it does not give a warm enough vape to give you the right flavor profile. Switch to a top coil carto/clearomizer after steeping and you will get much better taste from those juices. Do not forget to shake them well before using them. My personal recommendation is to shake enough to get small bubbles forming in the bottle, you cannot over shake a juice, but you most definitely can under shake one.

again these are my personal opinions, others may not agree, just how I do it.

From my experience, I would have to disagree. I have a peanut butter cup flavor from another vendor and it tasted great in a nova. Moved it to a CE4... awful. Like, I can't even vape it out of the CE4. I also have Dracula's Desire in a nova and it tastes pretty amazing. Obviously different devices and juices work differently for everyone. Just thought I would share my thoughts.

No point in sending the feedback email till your juice has had time to steep properly before you try it. :)

The email/feedback with the 15% off coupon will come in a few days. He gives you time to get the juice, let it steep, and then assess it.

Uhhhh... Yeah. That ain't happenin fellas. :D well, only to a certain degree. They did get 2 days caps off, then another 5 or 6 days. Really started diggin in this weekend though. That's why I wanna get this order in ASAP, so everything can properly steep.
Gosh, I hope Eleanor ain't around

I totally agree about the Vivi's. At first, I thought, wow these are so easy to fill they are gonna be great. But, the flavor is so mute it's ridiculous. Just my opinion. For cheap and easy I LOVE the Bauway CE4's. At around $2.30 a piece you can't go wrong. You can wiggle the tube off of them, clean and reuse. They last so much longer the the Vision's. I personally can't stand the Vision V3 replaceables. The draw is way to hard and so many dry its. If I was gonna buy the Visions I would buy the V2 non-replaceables, they perform way better. Again, just my opinions.

Idk, every non-replaceable CE4 I have ever used has leaked like there is no tomorrow. I'm talking the levy breaking in New Orleans during hurricane Katrina kind of leaking (too insensitive?). Either way, I have had bad experiences with the non-replaceables and even some replaceables. But I definitely prefer the replaceables to the others. I prefer vivis or carto tanks over all else though lol.

I am always beyond leery of JDS (juice delivery systems) that come out with new versions every couple months that are the "good" verisons that righted all the previous wrongs. One thing for sure that is not conjecture, assumption, or personal belief is how my favorite juice vendors vape. I have checked with all the vendors that I support to see how they taste their juice, and I think it would be a good idea for most people to at least know that the maker of the juice tastes their own work a certain way. One maker of a single juice, that I abhor, only uses a JDS that I abhor, so it stands to reason that the two were made for each other (that is the juice and JDS).

Well, if a juice doesn't taste good in my preferred jds, then it just doesn't taste good. I'm not changing it for a juice. :)

You mean you won't get rid of that titanium imported hybrid mod you posted pictures of earlier?

For those who didn't catch it:

I am not saying switch, but you could have possibly saved yourself the wasted time and money. I don't think it is different from people that insist on vaping 100% VG juice or W2V NETs in cartos. All I am saying is that the makers tend to know their products. Of course, just like modding, things can always have multiple uses and approaches. :vapor:

For me, if I REALLY like a juice I will do and try whatever it takes to make it work where delivery systems are concerned. I always have clearos, cartos, and atomizers on hand in that case. Luckily all of my Ahlusion juices work fantastic in mega cartos (my preferred method). Just gotta do what works for you!

Really. I never have problems with leaking. Now my high dollar JDS, like Zaps and Cobras, now those b*tch#s leak all the time.

Yep, and there's no point in getting irritated with the vendor that makes the juice or the customers that hype the juice when it's YOUR taste buds that don't like it.

And the choir said Amen - Why I read so much vs posting a lot. Trying to figure out whose tastes are similar to mine. Help me sift and select through the options. "Different strokes for different folks"

I personally do not recommend chocolates or carmel flavors in a ViVi Nova, it does not give a warm enough vape to give you the right flavor profile. Switch to a top coil carto/clearomizer after steeping and you will get much better taste from those juices. Do not forget to shake them well before using them. My personal recommendation is to shake enough to get small bubbles forming in the bottle, you cannot over shake a juice, but you most definitely can under shake one.
again these are my personal opinions, others may not agree, just how I do it.

I find the vivi on lower power normal resistance doesn't have enough juice to vaporize all of the juice elements. Happened to me with DealMaker. Vaporized everything but the cocoa. Left a very chocolate cocoa syrup in my tank. Tempted to go get some vanilla ice cream for a minute. LR head and more batt power eliminated the issue.


Wow! Emailed Vlad and he was able to fix the order still! Wow! So impressed! A+++++++!

Good to hear he caught in time. He has fixed a couple of my errors too. Also why I posted the other day for everyone to check orders. I love A+ can and will correct/fix (some vendors won't). At some point in the production process it would think it would be too late. That Wald seems to be willing to make these changes is another mark of their exceptional customer service.

On another note, Happy Veterans Day and thanks to those that served and continue to serve.

Lol, I have had a couple novas leak as well but its only because the little rubber things on top of the atomizer didn't line up correctly with the top cap and left a little space for juice to come out. Easily fixed by just nudging them over a little. With the CE4s I don't even know where it comes from. They just leave little circles of juice around them if they sit in one place for an extended period of time. But yeah, for me, novas and a couple carto tanks are my main juice delivery systems.

Done and done-er! (Safe Men reference, a must see for any goofy musician types)

BVC
CPBT
Pink Label
Peachy Criminal
Maple House Blend
JG Blend
Orange Creamsicle (wifey's suggestion, she likes to take a vape here and there since she can't take drags of my cigs anymore :) )
...and a sample of Spiced Pumpkin Latte.

Really tried to get a nice variety without going too far out on a limb yet. And, YES, Wlad and Co. are truly customer service ninjas!

I went to viv nova because I was very tired of ce3 always leaking. I liked the true flavor they gave until trying the nova as the nova gave me a much better taste to my Gandalf. I love coffee and cocoa flavors. All of my HHV has steeped now and taste much better so I am going to try and be patient for another week to give these new A+ juice alittle more time. Today I did fill a brand new dry burned ce 3 and tasted the same juice that was in my nova. Both the same, no flavor. We will see what happens in a week
