Have you tried buying an aluminum driptip for the T2? To me the T2 vapes FAR better than the Nova, and the flooding is due to air getting in through the drip tip.
Nope have not tried that but may as I have a few laying around. That assumes they are not damaged beyond salvation already. I guess Kanger should have thought to fix the problem before it became one.
I do have a few and haven't thrown them out yet, will have to try that one.
Thanks

I've got mine set and ready to go if I need it. Considering wrapping a few heads for convenience. I prefer my AGA-T but I use a needle bottle/syringe to fill. VVN just open it up and fill. Good for being away from the house for a long period.

I dislike the stock heads. Inconsistent, coils are wrapped super tight, dislike silica. But with the bamboo they work great. Pull it out after a week, dry burn, rinse, dry burn and rewick. I can't say that is all that more difficult than cleaning my AGA.

What really bugs me about it is the small working area of the heads. I enjoy working on my RBA but not the VVN heads.

You can dry burn with the bamboo? I gotta look into this. I like cotton but I'm always paranoid about it burning and it bums me out.

No no no :p

I dry burn without it in there.

Accidentally hit the fire button with dry bamboo in there. Needless to say, I found a quick way to cut through bamboo yarn.

I think maybe a lot of people jumped the gun and bought something they thought/heard/"knew" was mind-blowing. And when it turned out it wasn't, they were a little irked. That explains my story, at least.

I loved the real Vision ViVi Nova's , they are great for $10.00 bucks , plus I rebuild them myself with 2.0mm silica wick amd 34 nichrome wire. So the running cost is almost -0- ......
And I liked the version #1 the best with the air holes on the side of the bottom base instead of just at the 510 connection.
I have 3 Nova's , one V-1 and 2 V-2's and a mini Nova. I even have a couple metal tubes for them 1-black and 1- silver.

I got mine when they first came out , now every vendor has them I think.....

Anyway Best Wishes All !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A dual tank,may it be a clearomizer or caromizer just means it has too coil heads,you need more power to run them,some say you get more flavour going dual.

so theres a dozen posts and only this guy can reply, through some further research, its a dual coil not dual cartomizer, can anyone shed some light on this?

i tried the vision V1 ,after the third pull it was nothing but dry hits even with the tilt..i hated it like so many others

then people were going on about the new V2.5 being absolutely perfect ,,tried it and not much better,,no dry burns but muted flavor and minimal vapor at best ..

i'd rather have a Ce2 or stardust

Seriously every person here has their own opinion whether u like it or not its a personal opinion thing... I love cartos and love the vivi nova... as long as it vapes and keeps me out of analogs... if u want flavor then go to rba... but as far as im concern we're talking tanks here... vivi nova is not perfect so as carto tanks...I like both of them! Happy vaping everyone!

I have some T2's and i like the way they work. I bought one of the aluminium tips to try because they cant crack like plastic, but the vape was just too cold with it.


The flooding is due to air getting in through the drip tip.

Flooding can happen if the juice is too thin. It will wick too good.

I just ordered more of the Vision Vivi Novas. I have Vision clearo rebuildables, Ego tanks, and an AGA-T. For me, the Vivi Nova is just the easiest, fastest, quality vape I get from any of them. I have not had any leaking problems, the first one that I purchased still works perfectly with the original head after three months of constant vaping. I clean whenever changing juice flavors (about every two days). I use it on my EgoC battery and my Vamo, works great on both. I think that the Vivi Nova design is excellent for an overall inherently flawed electronic cigarette design that requires liquid to saturate a heating coil while keeping air flowing across it. As far as tilting, that's my natural movement when vaping, so it doesn't bother me at all. I just think back to the 510 Titan that I had previously and trying to find the right material, sticking straws in it, getting about 45 min of vaping and 15-18 drops of juice at a time, burning polyfill, etc. and I'm thrilled with what Vision has done to improve the experience so much and with so little maintenance.
