thanx for the reply, yeah i dont think its a 3.7V.. if let say its a 3.4v whick ohm should i use, 1.8, 2.4 or 2.8? any advise?

Ok, the magic number your trying to get to is 6 watts for flavor...
wattage is calculated by voltage times voltage divided by ohms.
So, with a 1.8 ohm coil you will be pulling 6.4 watts of heat, ideal ohm's for you is 1.8 to 2.2 ohm.
Hope this answers your question.

Also authentic joyetech products will have their logo on it, the fake mods will not. The Viva Nova tank is most def. not authentic joyetech.

If you're gonna run a mini nova, you may as well go with the T3. Same form factor, better vape, IMHO.

I don't much care for the 5ml tanks on an ego; looks wonky and I don't find them very ergonomic or pocket friendly. A 2.8ml T3 on a 650 twist will last me a full day of work (8ish hours vape time). Same setup on a 1000mah twist will last all day and night, but I need a juice refill around 5pm. YMMV.

The OP is assuming a lot of things. By saying "fake" I assume the implication is that only Joyetech is "authentic" eGo. This is very likely true, but just because something is "authentic" Joyetech doesn't have to necessarily mean it's superior. An eGo is an eGo...and over time has come to refer mostly to a Sharpie sized PV. Joyetech may have started it...but like many things, it doesn't mean there aren't other products that have come out the same size using the "eGo" moniker that might be as good or better. I have a couple of BetterLife eGo battery units, and have found them reliable (3.4 volt reg. is about right) and sturdy. They perform as well and arguably better than my Joyetech eGos. I also have a Hello brand Twist...and it is a fine little VV device. Every bit as good as the Joyetech Twist my husband has.

Just sayin'. To say Joyetech is the ONLY eGo worth having is would be a bit like saying anything but products made by the company named for a fruit is "fake" and not worthy. Some might feel that way...but it's based on opinion not FACT.

Agreed! Most - not all - of the 510 "eGo" batteries that are currently being sold on internet based retailers and brick and mortar stores are NOT joyetech products. The eGo moniker was originated by joyetech, but was the name the gave to a unit with 510 interanal threads and eGo cone threads. I have used and sold hundreds of eGo based batteries that are not manufactured by joyetech and have not had substantial problems with any of them. Just as with any small electronic device made in China, there are the occasional units that missed something in the QC department and need to be replaced. That being said, I also have a great deal of experience with the joyetech units as I only use joyetech brand passthroughs. Just as with the regualar eGo batts, I have had my share of duds from Joyetech. Don't through out the baby with the bathwater. Just because it's not a Joyetech battery doesn't mean it's not a good unit. Find the proper resistance atty and have a vape and a smile. 510 and eGo style batteries are a great compromise between size, style, and vape quality. Someday a manufacturer will come out with an 808 size battery that lasts all day, holds 6ml of juice, and vapes at 6v, but until that happens (and pigs fly) we have to work with what we have.
