Just received mine today. I got one of everything except the maxi and the new t3.

These are game changers for smokeless image. Unbelievable vapor. Good design, especially the vivi Novas. They made the vivi nova base so it covers the Vgo threads, which is not the case on a 510 version. It makes for a nice transition, similar to a cone for cartos.

Videos to come over the next couple of days

Ok, I got the iClear16, the ET, Maxi and Mini Vivi Nova. I do not care for the iClear16 as for one the vapor is wayy too hot for me and after a while it does puke liquid onto the top of the battery...lesson learned. The other 3 dbc clearos are fine, all produce great vapor and great taste. The Maxi however, will not operate on my X2 auto battery, only the manuals, the other two are fine on either manual or auto X2 batts. I haven't experienced any leaking so far. I run so many batterys and flavors that there is not a dedicated clearo yet for my adv's. But I can say this, if there are no leaks on these three I will try out the T3 dbc as well as the Ce5 to see which I prefer most. The ET is great (except for the cold metal tip), and looks like it's full when you fill it. The Maxi and Mini Nova still look like there is room for more juice even after you have filled it to capacity and put it together. The ET and Mini Nova have the better looking design when on the battery covering any thread areas. I do not have any review on how long the heads last as I have only had them less than a week. But, so far I am impressed with the Aspire DBC line.

I'm just got a few of the iClears and I gotta say I am not overly impressed. Don't seem to produce much vapor. With with the design it is a little hard to fill because there is so much wick in such a narrow area. Gotta fill really slow. And when the juice gets low it is really hard to tell if any is moving towards the wicks when tilting and twirling.

As far as the Aspire line I am really leaning towards the ET to use for my adv favorite juice. Still trying to figure out which other to try. Leaning towards the mini nova because it is a little smaller in capacity. But not so small it would need more frequent fillings. Great for my secondary favorites. And I wanna stay in the same interchangeable head family.

have you tried the iclear at over 4.2 volts?

All of the aspire line with the exception of the new T3 will give you the same vapor. It really comes down to looks and capacity. The interchangeable heads are really nice but remember that the full size vivi takes a different head then the other ones. The full size vivi heads are the same as all the 510 connection aspire vivi, mini vivi, and both ce5's though.

The other nice thing about the vivi and mini vivi is that if you have tubes from the original top coil vivi nova, they will fit the aspire line

I haven't tried the new t3 yet, They accidentally sent me a ce5 instead of a T3. Since they are the same resistance and a similar coil design, I assume it will be the same, but I really couldn't comment further until I try it. All I can say is that all of the other ones all have the same exact design and vape the same. The only difference I would say is that the ce5 has a slightly cooler vape because it's longer, but it's not a huge difference

So if you have tried do they give better vapor than the original T3 and T3 mini???

And yes I saw the full size Vivi takes it's own head just like the T3. That is why I am planning on sticking to the ones that take the same heads. I already use two different types of cleaors with two different heads. Don't need to add a bnch more to the mix.

Go for the Davide BDC, I LOVE mine! 3ml capacity, all metal and glass, and the Aspire coil! AND if you want to you can also turn it back into protank coil mode by removing the spacer ring and coil adapter. I also own The Protank 3, and have already retired the thing because the Davide BDC out performs it in every way!!!!

There is definitely much more vapor over the t3. And the flavors are intense. I cape mostly mint and sublime and the taste is completely different. Usually I would vaoe between 3.8 and 4.3 volts. I'm getting more vapor wth these at 3.3v than I did with the original t3 at 4.3. When I turn it up, it fills the room

So you don't have to use these on a VV??? SI recommends 3.8-4.2v. I don't use my spinners as much as my regular X2's so I was leery about getting them. But if they work fine I am all in.

Would you say flavor rivals that of a top coil???

The flavor is intense.

I actually have the i30s, which is a dual top coil. I thought the flavor in those was good until I tried these.
You can use them with x2's, but I suggest using the spinners.

I really don't like using my spinners on a regular basis. My 1300mAh spinners don't last anywhere near as long as my 900mAh X2's. Even with the voltage set at 3.8v. My spinners rarely leave the house other than for back-ups. The 900's are my regular use.

So what would be the disadvantage of using the Aspire line on the X2 over a spinner???

The only real disadvantage is that you can't change the voltage. Also remember, the aspire line has lower ohms, so you will see a decrease in battery life between charges.

I have been noticing an increase in time I can go between charges with my spinners on the aspire line, but that's because I'm using them at around 3.5v now. If I turn it up more than that, it's overpowering for me

I have no idea why both of my 1300 spinners have such a short life. I use mostly 2.2-2.4 heads running at around 3.8v. Is it normal for the spinners to have a shorter use time than regular X2 batteries?
