wouldn't a manufacturer test this? i am sure they didn't design it and start building then release it without testing with all sorts of juices and viscosity. i refuse to believe a manufacturer would not design a product with all these variables in mind. they know some people only vape 100% or 50% VG juice. they know some people use darker liquids, or clear liquids. did they actually test different ratios in these heads to actually confirm that they can or will soak up a vg base eliquid. i mean they were smart enough to figure that 4 holes was too much, for thinner liquids..
Or they just dont care. they just created it, mass produced it and said whatever works, works.
Anyone having any problems with their Vivi Nova-S? I have two, one works flawlessly but the other one won't give me any suction when it's hooked up to my battery. I tried replacing the head but that didn't help. I tried interchaning parts and I think that it is the top piece that is faulty (?).
try unscrewing it a tad from your battery. Air flow changes from one clearo to the next.
i had one for about two weeks now. how to put this ............WOW!!! I have been on the same coil for two weeks and this is hitting great on both a simple Ego V2 mega and my new Vamo V5. I still use my Kanger pro 2 and mini 2 i'm not a high power (7 -8 watts) vapor but the flavor is different than the Kanger's but in a good way. no dry hits even chain vaping. I got the glass/ss model my only complaint is there is a lot of wasted tank space due to the filling method and the space the BDC takes, but all else concidering it works very well.
Are you getting any power to the Vivi? You may need to pull that center pin down slightly on the Vivi in order for it to make contact with your device.
im thinking about trying the anyvape Davide Glassomizer BDC Dual Coil they take the Aspire bdc coils right?
How can manufacturers test for the variables? We're vaping hundreds of different juices from hundreds of different vendors. There's no control group. There's different temperatures, elevations, air pressures. There are far too many variables.
I also had some leakage in an Aspire head earlier. I pulled it, rinsed the clearo and dry burned the base and head. I made sure that I could see both coils glowing (they actually look like fairly well wrapped micro coils). I rinsed again, let them dry for an hour, primed the head again, and it's vaping like brand new. These things are pretty amazing. They're a great balance between clearos and carto tanks.
I keep reading about the issues all of you have. I've been using 3 aspire tanks for about 5 weeks now...same original heads also and haven't had one bit of trouble. Dekangs dk-tab, my own bahama mama, and my own kona coffee milkskake clone.

I do believe you may be right B1shOp. Few realize that so called "consumer" testing of products is not necessarily the norm. That a great percentage of producers in this country don't have much more than a rudimentary QC or development standard for their products. And then even more for whom testing of suitability or performance is not much more than that of a broom maker.
And many labor under the misconception that we, the pulibc, are the beta testers. That's also an optimistic proposition. It assumes that someone's actually watching consumer results or reactions. If so, I'd urge they step forward and identify themselves and their interest. Perhaps that might add even a wee bit to consumer confidence.
Good luck!

I agree. The folks at Blu and Johnson Creek did an outstanding job refining their product. I'm sure the makers of Aspire products have also, to the extent of fitting the application for their target market. Not accounting for every likely extreme or variable as you suggest. That would be obviously impossible. That's what I alluded to in my remarks. LTBB Let the buyer beware always applies.
Good luck!
Can you please lay out specifically the steps to dry burning these heads?.. I too have some inconsistency with them. First head went almost 3 wks, no problems at all, 2nd through 4th had issues with airflow and burnt taste... Changed them out. 5th head is perfect again for 4 tanks in a row and it looks like it won't quit. My experience with these when working as they should, less is more. don't even rinse out between fills, just add whatever to what's left and they seem to last forever.. Vaping nicoticket Betelgeuse and it's awesome in my MVP with my present coil...Already tried soaking the "bad heads" in vodka, tried a dry burn in one of them but got no glow or results after 5 min...I gotta believe I'm doing something wrong... Do you take it apart to see the glow? Or view from that little opening? And I think I ruined the head cause it didn't vape at all afterwards... Wish someone would do a vid on it.. Anyhow have another 5 pak on order but would love to save the ones I got...

ya! I was wondering the same thing about dry burning. I haven't looked at them closely but was wondering if he/she took them apart.
Anyway, Just wanted to drop in and say a "so far so good!!!". Thanks to Salem and Peter (and all others that commented) for the extra nudges to try these when I was looking for an off-the-shelf clearo for my wife. As some may remember she blew one of the coils on the first. User error. She pumped 5+ volts through it. Maybe shouldn't have blown it, but meh...
She has one in a Davide and one in a Vivi (FYI... she likes them both, but likes the draw on the Vivi better.). So she is now on day 4 on each head. We're trying it the lowest maintenance way as possible. No rotating. No soaking. Just seeing how long they last out of the box. One started tasting a bit burnt/gunky yesterday. I told her to just try taking it out, give it a good rinse, and put it back in. Of course the first few hits were fugly from the water. But, then she said it was good as new.
If these last at least 3-4 days on each I'm sold and will be stocking up BIG time. Thank you all for your help!!!!!!!
(She still likes my gennys, but right now she is only vaping these full time to give them a good workout. And she is a heavy vaper. Chief's constantly. Low voltage, but constant.)
It feels so good that she doesn't have to depend on me to have a great vape!!

I tried this (and pulling the post out) and I have to pull it out too to make contact with the battery before I can get any air flow. Is it possible that I have a bad head (and a second bad head)? I have two other tanks that work fine so I guess I will try these coils in those before I waste all of my other replacement coils.
I didn't take the head apart to dry burn it. I just soaked it in hot water, let it dry for a second, and fired it without the tank until the coils glowed and no vapor was produced. I was vaping a dark liquid called Bananas Gone Nuts. I think that dark liquid gunked up the heads quickly.
Thanks for the come back J. I was reall curious to see that coil coming off the tests I was running. See if there was any relationship to burned taste I saw and flooding you've mentioned. Unfortunately, I won't have time this week and I regret I gave away the batch of coils I had to staff here eager to start vaping. Couldn't resist. Sorry.
I really think for many users the BCD technology may be a viable product as less fiddly. For users with varied tastes in viscous juices like myself, perhaps not. Not from my limited test. But I don't see much substantive quality in mass produced consumables with some notable exceptions.
I would recommend that you consider empowering yourself and take a stab at rebuilding. The same for anyone seriously contemplating vaping in the long term.
Good luck!
I had wicking/draw issues with the aspire depending on the mod. It doesn't work well on my eVic. Air path gets too restrained and I end up with negative pressure pulling liquid out. Works like a champ on my twist and lets face it, it looks better on that anyhow.
