Clearomizers/ tank help needed

[ChipHead]

I apologize for putting this in the General forum but the tank forum hasn't produced the feedback I need. I'm frustrated beyond belief. I was perfectly happy using my dual coil cartos on a 1000 mah battery. Bought a couple of twists. Then I got into clearomizers. I LOVE the vapor and ease of filling but I'm completelt bummed out how they leak into the battery and gurgle when you hit them. I've tried the basic clearos and the rebuildables. Both gurgle ad flood the battery. It's a PITA. I've looked at the Kangers but they look the same. I'm not overfilling and I don't flood the air intake when I fill. Please post your suggestions. I'm begging you. It's driving me nuckin futs!
Thanks.

Vivi nova 2.5

Vivi mini + cool metal collars at got vapes

Rewick them with cotton after you get used to them=endgame.

NO LEAKS! No clearo can say that. I was using mine today and thought: "I remember those days with leaky Stardust knock offs gurgling into my battery or those bottom coil seals ...... on me in my bed."

And I laughed...

Vivi Nova 2.5/vivi mini/cool metal collars/ego twists= oh yea baby...

No leaks baby, ever! Can bounce it off a bus and catch a vape... Pound a nail with it into your wall and catch a vape... Beat down that home intruder with it and catch a vape...

No leaks... yea baby throw those Chinese crap clearo money pit things in the trash forever...

Vivi
Nova
Yea
Baby!

My totally unadventurous brother in law got a vivi nova today and let me try it.

I can say that the flavor is far less muted with it than it is in a star dust. I was pretty impressed. I might have to pick one up.

Thanks for the responses folks. I ordered a couple of mini vivi novas from LiteCig today. I also researched the versioning and it is confusing as can be. Hopefully this will be the tank I've been looking for.
Have a GREAT weekend.

I am really digging my vivi tank. 2.8mL and no leaks, no gurgling, no condensation in tip, easy to take apart, clean, and replace heads. I wish I bought another tank or two, but I'm pretty sure the 3 heads are gonna last till next meetup.

I'm using vivi nova and stardust too. No leaks. The clearos that i would recommend every time someone ask what to buy.

GAK!!! Bought two mini vivi novas. First head took TWO DAYS to break in before I started getting any flavor. Now a week later both are gurgling and leaking into the battery. I've cleaned them, replaced heads, made sure not to overfill, try keeping the tip end up as much as possible etc. Junk freakin junk.

I hated the Vivi Nova but loved the eGo Vision, specially on my low volt batts. They go through juice faster but I can taste the juice, something that doesn´t happen on the Vivi Nova.

Why did you hate the vivi nova?

Here's great example: I put my PV with a vivi nova mini in the car today at 3 PM. Car is in a covered garage, outside temp @ 65 degrees and the PV was laying at @ a 45 degree angle with the tip pointed up. 3 hours later I get in my car, take a hit and gurgle, gurgle gurgle with hardly any taste of vapor. Unscrew the tank while I'm driving and the battery was so filled with juice it ran down the side and over my hand. Guess what I'm vaping as I type this: a dual coil carto. Unless someone has some sound advice, I'm done with clearo/tanks.

from my experience, the vapor is a bit stronger in the stardust vision clearomizers compared to the mini vivi nova, but the stardust has weird gurgling and leaking onto the battery threads (... but i might just have a faulty one). i also found w/ the stardust sometimes you get random e-juice in the tip going into your mouth. it's only like one drop every once in a while, but i think i'm sticking w/ the mini vivi nova for now.

I would have to recommend the ViVi Nova, ViVi Nova mini, or the Stardust. All three of these are available at got vapes. The gurgling could be because the tubes still had liquid in them. You could have also had issues with the seals in the clearomizers. I also highly recommend against modifying the top seal on any of these systems. I know a lot of people recommend that but it can cause leaking. I do not own a ViVi Nova, but I do own the mini and I have ordered a second to have additional functionality out and about. I have also been using the stardust for several weeks. The biggest issues with these units is getting the correct resistance and checking the heads before use after cleaning. Also you have to be sure to dry burn the coil just a touch to clear any blockages. Also if you have gotten liquid in the tube you have to let it completely empty. This usualy takes about 12 to 24 hours to dry out.

Money4me247 The liquid in the tip is either due to over filling or collected condensation. If you are keeping the switch pressed the entire draw you will get condensation in the tip. Since the liquid cannot easily get back into the clearomizer due to the seal tip on the atomizer head. As for the leaking and gurgurling into the battery check the tube after cleaning. If the seals are wet before use or liquid is still in the tube it will stop the seals from doing their job. Since the moisture will compromise the silicone in the joint.
