Todd ecigreviews has a perfect detailed YouTube video on how to rebuild a Vivi Nova head with SS mesh wick. Check out his channel. He has quickly become one of my favorite reviewers. Good luck.

Hello,
I have a few questions:
What would be the advantage of using the extra SS mesh around the wire? Is it for taste or to avoid burning? How long would they last before you have to make a new one? When I use just a wire (without SS mesh) they last me 2 weeks.
Thank you!

Ended up just taking the old coil out and rolling the mesh small enough to just slide into the coils in a new head.. so i basically just slid the silica wick out.. and slid a ss mesh wick in its place.. no rolling required..
Steps to do it:
1. Take the bottom off the vivi-nova and slide out the 510 connection post and bottom.
2. Get a new head and using your fingernails just pull the pin out of the bottom.. You will notice one part of the coil is outside the
plastic rubber sleeve (the ground id assume) and the other part of the coil is on the inside of the sleeve (Positive, this part of the coil actually is pressed up against the bottom pin completing the circuit.
3. Remove the grey rubber sleeve.
4. lift the coil out gently grasping the wicks gently
5 slide the silica wick out of the coils (there is next to zero resistance they will slide out pretty easily.
6. Roll a VERY VERY VERY thin stainless steel mesh and oxodize it. (there are TONS of videos to learn how to do this
on youtube)
7 Slide the new mesh wick in between the factory rolled perfect coils.
8. This is optional but it helped me... unroll one wrap from each end to give you some extra to feed out the bottom. Doing
this did drop the ohms on the coil from the factory 2.6 down to 2.1 but no biggie for me..
9 Feed the left and right wires down the middle of the head.
10. Re-insert the rubber sleeve leaving one of the wires on the outside and one of the wires on the inside of the sleeve
11 push the metal center Pin back in place, and trim the wire as needed to neaten it up
12. Test fit the length of the mesh wick and trim as necessary
13 Check your ohms.. and vape away.
Flavor for me was FANTASTIC.. Just like my z-atty pro..
Be careful the first time I tried this the wick was a bit to wide and the wicking was cut off by the VERY small gap for the mesh to go through on the walls of the head.. Other then that.. was a VERY simple thing to do.
!!NO MORE BUYING VIVI HEADS FOR ME!!
I just pull out the silca and slide the SS mesh in,no need too take it apart,it works and tastes awesome.

They have anodized metal tanks that are leech free and harder than steel,just make the wicks stubby and short so they dont rub the sides of the tank.
