Help!! Broken Vision Nova Tank - is there a fix?

[tab223]

Hello all, I am still a rookie with this stuff. I have a Apollo Lava Tube. About 2 weeks ago I got a Vision Nova tank. I had an issue a few times where suddenly I couldn't get any draw at all - nothing it is like no air was coming through. I would unscrew the tank, rescrew it in and it would work again. Last night, I changed out the head (or Cartomizer - whatever the name for the piece is that has the wick in that screws in). And now I can't get any draw at all. It is like it is sealed. I thought maybe I had a bed head/cartomizer - so I put in another one and same thing - no draw at all. My Tube works fine on the drip tip, so it is not the tube. I really liked the tank though, anyone have any ideas for a total newbie on messing around to get this to work?

Take it off your Vtube and see if it has draw. If it does, get an unsealed shorty extension to put between it and the Vtube.

If it does not, try a different atomizer in it.

I honestly don't have any other 510 device to see if it works there. Air does flow through when I suck on it off of the vtuve, but when I put it on I get nothing.

Maybe I will try that adapter, thanks for the suggestion.

I'm new to this myself, but I can tell you my Vision tank leaks something fierce and I have to clean out the junction where it screws in due to all the leaked juice.

as tj99959 said try the adapter i had the same problem as you're having right now with a lava tube and a vivi nova

Don't screw it on too tightly on your Lavatube. You should be able to loosen it enough to get a draw and still make an electrical connection.

Flyer, that acutally worked. But it is still behaving strangely. If I loosen until it is almost coming off it will start to vape. Once I get a few vapes in I can tighten it a little more and it keeps vaping, but It has to stay so loose on there that it rattles around. I can't figure out why this is! I guess I need to buy that connection piece other people referred to.

Get a non-sealed 510-510 extender to lift the VN off the top of the Lavatube. That should help.

I'd definitely go for the 510-510 ext. Though it is possible to pull out the post a bit to get a better connection. I haven't had any issues myself with the vivi nova on a LT, and I'd guess there might be some risk to messing with the connector. So I'd recommend waiting for the 510-510 unless you don't have a backup and it stops working completely.
