Okay, now I have a bunch of 10ml bottles of juice on the way, with a single vivi nova, how would the cleaning/changeover process go?

Video below on cleaning. 2nd part of video is about rebuilding the heads - ignore that for now. Under the video a link to another one that explains dry burning. I don't always dry burn and still get weeks of use just from the cleaning - and it's easy.



Dry burning is nice step by step detail:
Real Reviews: How I dry burn my Vivi heads - YouTube

The key to dry burning is to not be at high voltage, stop after 3-5 seconds each time and wait a few seconds, blow on it while doing it,and don't keep going once the whole coil glows.

The t3s are good at leaking or not leaking? (brain shart in full effect)

I haven't used them yet. I'm intend to. Reports are they don't leak.

Yeah, my first ecig purchase was an ego kit from Gotvapes, and i'm loyal to a fault, but sometimes you gotta stretch your wings too. Plenty of great vendors out their, I recommend checking out the forum suppliers list at the first page. Reading up there is always a good idea on what to expect when ordering.

I went to gotvapes.com to avoid the cheap vivi fakes that were(are?) circulating the scene. The prices are good. Only thing I couldn't get there was a lanyard that didn't have an advert on it.:)

Note to all those looking into rebuilding there own: Be sure to check on the safety of silica wicks. I personally replace them with cotton wicks. After some extensive experimentation from some ECF veterans, the cotton is just as good as silica and tastes better to most everyone who's tried it. If you are curious do a search for "wicks: safe vs. dangerous". It's a *very* long thread... Those guys tested all sorts of things and one of them made a mini wiki on various materials with tips (and pics) explaining each Thanks to Tomcatt for making this: MyWikkaSite: Cotton Wick Wiki
Good luck :)

Some extra 1.8 ohm mini vivi nova heads. I think they'll be the best with what you've got. A few cartomizers, 1.7 or 2.0 ohm - always good as a back up. I always have some cartomizers around. You might want to pick up a mini vivi metal sleeve - they look really nice, especially if you are out somewhere ot at work. Only downside is you can't see how much juice is left without opening the top to look.
