Holy good lord... that was AWESOME!!!!!

[nepatitan]

Got my vivi novas today, two minis and one 3.5 mil. Filled it up and let it soak for a few, took a deep long hit and BAM!!! coughing, gasping for breath lol and I LOVED every second of it . Awesome throat hit, lots of vapor and taste was almost as good as dripping. Now I was a 2.5 PAD for 17 years so I vape heavy and love a big throat hit, but until now (other than dripping) I haven't been able to get that nice warm throat hit with carts and tanks.
These things are awesome!!!

Nice, I'm gonna drop a order in a few days also.
Your juice plays a big factor also as I've tried many devices, not to mention your battery device.
I thought some of my devices were less than impressive lately and I found out it was my rechargeable batts that weren't putting out making my vape seem weak. I have a new 6amp beast coming with a few pks of IMR batts and I plan on rocking some coils....lol.

What other clearo's have you tried?

 

[nepatitan]

Nice
Def worth the $35 I spend on the 3 vivis.
Ive been vaping pipe flavor from Dawn at diyflavorshack. Was going between dripping and boge 3.2 cart last night cause the tank setups I've been using just haven't been giving me much flavor. Put the pipe liquid in the vivi about 2 hours ago and its been fantastic.
I haven't tried any other clearos yet, saw reviews on the stardusts but I have enough trouble with juice leaking out of the bottom of an atty while dripping so I figured I'd go with the vivi for now.

I have a couple of different rebuildable's. And they are very nice, dont get me wrong. But I may as well admit, my Vivi Novas spend way more time perched on top of my mod than anything else does! I mean there is just nothing about them I don't like. The flavor is great the vapor and throat hit spot on perfect for me, and like you said I can get that really warm to almost hot vape that soooo hits the spot and crushes the crave. Easy to fill, easy to clean, consistent hit after hit. I bought extra heads, but after more than 2weeks I'm still rotating thru the original 3 that came with it, haven't killed one yet. And I can put it in my pocket! Might just be me but it seems like every time I've put a clearo in my pocket, it immediately empties all over the place, with the exception of the bottom coil Phoenix style, I'm cursed with those things!
I'm with you , they're awesome !

@ synthros
They are quite amazing, I might stop dripping if it keeps up at the pace I vape at lol.
Have a question though. So the gf and I both vape, she can vape the same flavor for 2 or 3 days at a time, I myself need to change it up every hour or so. Which is why I drip as well as use carts (vivi now). I have seen some videos were people will just remove the head on the vivi and just rinse it under hot water to clean it out. Does this remove all or most flavor due to no poly fill being used?
Just got a ultrasonic jewelry cleaner yesterday to clean out carts. Think I could put the head in that to clean it as well?

 

[synthros]

Heh that's funny same here. My wife pretty much vapes Halo Malibu all the time. Me, I'm switching it up a lot. I don't know about the ultrasonic, I've been doing what you just said. When the tank is empty I rinse all the parts out really well under warm water. I then put the newly cleaned head on the windowsill to dry out completely and pop the last one I cleaned back on. The last time I did it I did a quick dry burn (was worried that I would burn it, or give it a burned taste) But no, no problem at all, it's like new and basically no flavor carry over. The ultrasonic might work , but I just don't know as I've never used one.

[nepatitan]

Lol that's the exact video I was talking about. Just wasn't sure if hot water was enough, but guess what... it is! Was getting bored with the pipe juice, so I unscrewed the cap, poured the rest of the pipe liquid back into the bottle. Unscrewed the base, rinsed it under hot water as well as the drip tip and top. Blew it out and dried as much as I could with paper towel. Popped it back together, filled it with tigers blood (liquid jolly rancher) First few hits were low vape, damp wicks I guess but after that is was all good! AMAZING!!!

THANKS!!!!
It's a good night for me, this is the setup I'm happy with.
Vapor seems to be soo strong in the Vivi that it feels like my nose is dripping, I guess the vapor is getting stuck up in my nose lol. It's dripping out when I got the pv outa my hands lol

Great..well... I dunno know about knowing the nose bit...but... LOL - wasn't too long ago that you were going through the discouraging vapor blues if I recall correctly? What juices do you like?

[jeffjr464]

open up the top of the atomizer(take off the silicone cap) there's a stupid piece of paper in there near the coil, pull that out with tweezers, makes it even better!!!!

 

[nepatitan]

lol
Yea was only last week I was having issues. Honestly I think it was something with the poly fill in the cartomizers, I think I could taste the poly fill or it was altering the taste. I wish I could say it was simple as the unflavored efluid that comes in them, but I had boiled the crap outa a few carts for a day and same thing lol. But also figured out I vape so hard and long that I was burning the atomizers right off the bat. So eneded up getting higher ohm cartomizers.
But..... this right here my vivi and the twist, I think I found my true love

Ive been ordering from Dawn at diyflavorshack and have really enjoyed most of her juices. Also got a few samplers from altsmoke.
I really enjoy the pipe flavor and tigers blood (liquid jolly rancher) from dawn and cigarillo from altsmoke.

[Hulamoon]

Brilliant! I'd like to recommend Heathers Heavenly Vapes Huntsman if you like pipe. And also Gandalf. Well,...anything from there actually. They are both truly wonderful. Fruit flavors from Rawr, Alice in Vapeland for teas, NiteliteVapor for anything (though you need to read their thread for their "opening times" which are only two half days per month because of the volume of orders they get. I think with your hardware, they'll really knock your socks off. Vape on!

Ill have to spend some time navigating the sites you recommended.

Have you heard any reviews on pipe sauce from epipemods ?
Just the sound of it "pipe sauce" makes my mouth water lol

Does anyone use the vivi nova with 100% VG? Wanted to get some advice before I order one. I use a 1100mah KGo. Thanks.

I do, and I haven't had a problem yet. Went from dripping (4 years) to the vivi nova regular then mini, and love it. I have used the viva on my ego twist 650, 1000, precise and on the vv gripper - no problems with any of them.

Next, you have to learn how to rewick them.


Vision Vivi Nova, Part 2 - Changing Wick (COTTON) & Final Impressions - YouTube

You don't have to use cotton though. Kind of a pain if you ask me because you can't dry burn them. Stick with the original silica if you want.

 

[nepatitan]

The only juice im having trouble with now is what i'm vaping with "Tigers Blood" its 70PG/30VG but its think to begin with Had trouble filling carts with it, just takes a long time to wick in.
