I love the vivi nova!

[DesmondTheMoonbear]

There isn't much else to say. Got it in the mail today and i cant find a word to describe my level of satisfaction. AMAZING vapor and flavor. With every ,combination of resistance and variable voltage on my ego c. Thank you GotVapes!
Anything i should know tips and tricks wise from any of you seasoned vets out there?

I received mine as well today. I've already rebuilt a new wick and coil. I'll like it for work.

Glad your liking it.. I got a viv nova, viv nova mini, and kanger t3 .. I am in love with the vivis but this kanger leaves taste to be desired, I'm kinda sad with it.

 

[DesmondTheMoonbear]

I'm still a n00b so bear with me, but what should i be looking for in terms of differences between the three different resistance heads they came with?

I'm still a noob as well, so I don't know the exacts, but I tried the three that it came with and found that I get the best flavor and vape out of the 1.8 ohm head at 3.3 v. I'm sure there is some crazy response that would go well with that question, but I think it just comes down to personal preference.

With the 3 different heads you'll get a different temp of vapor and more depending on the power you put to it. When I was using a vivi on a standard ego I liked the 1.8 heads for desserts as it made it nice and warm. The only tip/trick I would think of with these is to clean them every few tanks and dry burn the head makes it taste brand new everytime also when starting a new head or after cleaning one drop right on the coils before you fill it up will make it wick faster. Not that it's even a big deal as it's pretty much ready to go as soon as you fill it up. Hope you love it for a long while I know I did it was my first upgrade in my adventure of vaping and still use nothing else other than a 303 when I'm having juice add.

Hi Des, It comes with 1.8, 2.4, and 2.8. You should try them over time to see which you like. Unless you have a variable wattage you would need to do some math. You take the voltage of your device {squared} and divide by the ohm resistance. For example, I like to vape at around 7 watts. With a standard eGo battery the voltage is 3.7 {3.7 x 3.7 = 13.69} I would then divide by the resistance. 13.69 / 1.8ohms = 7.6 watts. OR 13.69 / 2.4ohms = 5.7 watts. There are other considerations like amp limits but for basic beggining information this should help.

Yep see, there are your crazy responses

I resemble that remark. lol

What exactly is a 303 scabby? Because i just ordered 18 flavors from delightful vapor and i can see this juice add in my future lol

I promise I mean it in a good way!

 

[MF DOOM]

I like to rotate mine a bit whilst drawing.Keeps that juice a' wicking!

 

[Amish Ed]

Be careful not to cross thread the tube when screwing the caps on. I did that (partially) to one and now it leaks a bit. The other tip I have is to not drop them on concrete. Mine survived a few short falls to concrete and then a bigger drop ended up with my other Nova leaking.

 

[DonD13]

I hear all of this love towards the Vivi Nova. I wish I shared that notion. I only have one of them and I am starting to wonder if I just got a bad unit. I cannot get a draw from this thing. I have had it on regular Ego, Ego Twist and a Vamo. The draw is so tight that it isn't worth messing with. I have seen other folks with this problem, but for the most part folks seem pleased with the unit. Should I buy another one in the hopes that I just got a bad one?

I used them with a several of ego twist 1000 mah batteries and they worked like a champ. Pefect draw; not too tight or airy. Make sure you clean out you tube tower with hot water and blow it out before you use it. If you still have draw problems you may have a Vivi Nova knock-off and or an ego twist battery knock-off.. I have never had a problem with the Vision Vivi Novas, or genuine Ego-C Twists. The only other thing that can happen is if you flood your wick tower with juice, because you forgot to put the plastic cap on properly, filled it too full, or did not screw the wick head on tight. Blow it out into a paper towel and make sure everything is tight and you should be good to go.

Oh, I forgot. some of the beauty rings for VV devices can affect the draw. I don't use them.

 

[DonD13]

It had perfect airflow until I screwed it in. I think I have a faulty unit as it has no air holes above the threads. I drilled a 1/16th hole above the threads and now it hits great. Problem fixed.

 

[mitsuhashi]

I loved my Vision Vivi Nova at first, then one of the heads turned out to be faulty, then I started noticing I had to keep twirling the thing to get semi-consistent vapes, then it leaked juice all over my couch overnight. I don't use it any more, though I'm probably partially at fault. Maybe I'll give it another shot sometime. But for now, I'm liking the Kanger T3 far better than the Nova as it's consistent and passes flavor really well. Give that one a try, too

The kanger T3 is the other tank I am using right now. I like it, but I think I actually prefer the T2.

That's odd Don because my draw seemed to have alot of air to it compared to the stock ego (tanks? Cartos?) But i got used to it eventually and now the stock seems to have too tight of a draw. Maybe order another and try again.

Never had a problem with a Vision Vivi Nova and 510 connections except for user error. Commercial wick heads sometimes vary in quality.
Compared to other clero tanks I have used the Vivi's have been good consistent performers and easy to use.

I tried CE2's, Stardusts, Fluxomizers, Apollos, Ego clero tanks, and Excaliburs and they all either leaked, gave poor vapor production, poor taste, or simply fell apart. Of all of those the Apollo tanks gave me the best taste and vapor production, but they leaked and were fiddly.
