Since I tend to chain vape I've been super-heating my Protanks & iClear 30s, causing the iClear 30s to leak. I've switched over to Boge carto tanks, cranked up the VW, and vaped 8ml in one evening LOL

It sux when you get a great little DIY [Blueberry + Cinnamon Roll + caramel + cotton candy] and you make more and find something is missing :'( WAFFLE! Hahahahahaha! Maybe that's it!

I have a theory but no way to back it up. My vamo uses cheap PWM and you can hear clearos and Vivi's "rattlesnake" and not do a solid draw. Hard to explain but if you've heard it, you'll know what I mean. The MVP does *NOT* do that so my thought is the power of the MVP is a bit cleaner and more consistent than my other options so on a long draw I might be getting into dry-hit territory. It settles down just fine and if I'm just taking 2-3 second pulls which is more typical for me, it's fine. I do prefer VV mode over VW mode on the MVP V2 for what it's worth.

To the poster who thinks they have a bad iClear (DOA coil), it very well may be the firing pin issue...

It's constant voltage. Check out Phil Busardo's review. He puts it on a scope. The only thing he mentioned besides the button was that he felt the VW was a last minute feature add-on because his scope registered it as being somewhat all over the place, but usually the output was a bit higher than the setting.

Ahhh, forgot all about Phil's review, I did watch that and remember what you mean. And that's fine, VV is fine with me.

I really like my iClear 30 but I can't wait to try some new things. I have a carto tank on the way and from there, I think I'm going to try an RBA or RBD and really get lost in this hobby, lol.

Can you give me a link to somewhere that has them that sells legit vision vivi novas I have heard of a lot of places selling knock offs. I think that's what my B&M sells that's why I am just ordering. I knew the 2.2 is the common resistance but, I was under the assumption the lower the resistance the warmer the vape. Are there negatives to doing lower resistance, bc I love warm vape.

The best I could do with a quick look through my vendor list was Vapor Alley Vision who offers the genuine Vision Victory tank that is suppose to be an updated version of the vivi nova as well as the T2 that appears to be longe wicked from the picture as well as T2 replacement heads that definitely show as long wicked.

Since you have a variable volt device, the ohm rating is not as important for cranking up the heat. The thing is, you can only go so warm until you start to burn. The T2 has the coil as close to you mouth as you can get thus the warmest vape for any given wattage. The vivi is a mid coil and is not as warm.

EDIT: I did not dig deep enough in to Vapor Alley. If you type Vivi Nova in to their search you will find many more Vivi options. Don't forget one or two 510-ego connectors and maybe a small beauty ring.

Second edit: I'm pretty sure the T2 they show for the product display isn't even a T2 :laugh: I'm sure it is just the wrong picture. The description is for a T2.

Thanks for the help with understanding ohm isn't as important with VV/VW. They are currently out of stock with the T2. Guess I am not going to be ordering today. I don't want to pay shipping for 2 different sites, and can't seem to find them both in stock on 1 site. What is the difference between long wick and short. I know the triton uses to long, so I assume that is what I will like more. If you happen to come across anything let me know. Thanks.
Nevermind that was just purple one, other colors are in stock. Thanks.

yeah, if i stick to around 5 sec max ... and let it sit for a bit before taking another pull i never get the taste ... but if i use it to often or for to long i get it ...

i am still playing around with the different settings ... normally end up on about 7.5 P

I didn't even notice(I have never seen one) I am pretty sure it should be correct product. I placed my order for 2 T2's, 1 vivi nova, a 510 atty, 510 to ego connector and beauty ring. Thanks so much for help. I am really enjoying my menthols through the KMPT 2 today. Can't wait to get my warm vapor tanks.

Just the other day I posted somewhere that Nickoticket Juice would taste good in a spoon with a lighter waving underneath. (Saw that on "Intervention" program). LOL
But I agree.
I just love my MVP2!
0 complaints from me. 0
Same here!! My MVP v2 is about to "go to yellow"....after 4 DAYS!!:D
And....we NT fans KNOW Clark's juice IS......"that addictive"!!;) (Haven't yielded to temptation and tried my new Frenilla!!)
Happy (vaping) Trails!
See you in the Virtual Vaperoom!!

Ohm vs. Voltage chart. Will help you dial in your sweet spot:

Just remember if you are using VW, for most settings the MVP 2.0 is going to send a bit more power than what you have it set at so best bet is to use this chart and set by VV. :)

Example, a resistance of 2.Ohms and setting voltage at 4.2v may fry some juices.

A day of rest. Today I gave my MVP 2 a day off. Received it a week ago yesterday, gave it a full charge and charged it again on Thursday and again this morning. Since I purchased 2 iTaste VV-3 not long ago I'll use them today and let the MVP enjoy sitting on the counter with nothing to do.

I'm enjoying my VV-3 as IMO has the best feel and best power button I've ever tried.

If your local shop has some, pick up a Kanger T2 with the long wicks. They are identical to the Triton tanks but have standard ego threading. If they don't have them, you can order them from Discount Vapers here: Kanger T2 Clearomizers


Right and Thanks, Kanger T2 not T3, I made that mistake earlier in my reply to Lindsay.. T3 on the brain :blush:

It seems to be somewhat of a consensus that with the MVP 2 (as with any device) there are a few quirks and foibles.

(1)Firing pin is too short causing issues with making a connection (and corresponding tight draw/low vapor production).

(2)Generally tight draw (low airflow) on some delivery systems in general.

(3)Variable Voltage seems to be favored over Variable Wattage (for me also).

(4)Button a bit stiffer that desired.

Anything else I'm missing here?

My personal fix for the firing pin/tight draw issues have been solved by using a 510-to-ego adapter. Both issues have gone away by always using an adapter.

I'm just curious if anyone else has answers to these (or other problems/fixes) that haven't been thought of/brought up already.:)

They have a great vanilla custard, Custards Last Stand. And Creme Brûlée. Just got it last week lots of flavor!

I'm just getting into bakery style juices now. I'll be stalking you when I move into custard, puddings, and Brûlée juices :p

As long as you're trying some "new things"...you might want to score a couple Aspire ET BDC Clearomizers and/or Aspire ET-S BDC Glassomizers.

After trying the Aspires...I moved all my CE4's, CE5's, iClear 16's, iClear 30 and T3S's to my "back-up drawer".
