The more I use this thing the more in-love I am with it :) I started getting a whole lot of fluid building up above the cone-style seal after a nice vape session. I took off the cone seal, seated the cup seal tightly and moved the cone seal up so it presses against the tip and its working great now :thumbs:

This totally changes the game in my vape-world. Now I can focus on what I'm doing instead of how wet my atomizer is

And thanks for the hookup, GotVapes :vapor:

we are very happy with how out of the box ready to vape it is, just fill and vape.

Those who don't believe it just need to hit play :thumbs:

EDIT: I've run my VISION through its first fill now. It effortlessly makes VG-style plumes of vapor like I could make when trying on a 510 atty.

Great review!! It is what I experienced as well...I used a syringe to fill tho,much easier for me :) This carto is very durable,,,i got one to try out with some glue....it is still going strong and I think it has been 3 weeks now..maybe longer. But, still going real nicely!!!
:vapor:

(when I got the Vision, to try out, it was noted on invoice there was a crack and there was glue to seal it...so thank you Gotvapes for letting me try it! btw, I havnt had to reglue it either, that end of it is still holding strong as well!)

I tried your tip and left a gap between the two gaskets so the top gasket was touching the tip (I just pushed it in with the tip for maximum space). I still get the som bit of juice coming up from the tip, but it is improved. I noticed now more juice gets trapped between the two gaskets rather than on top of the funnel gasket.

I've actually tried your tip! For me it really has performed well (less juice buildup) without the top cone-style gasket. Even though juice may get up there, and sometimes it looks like it's even getting in the mouthpiece (!!), I haven't gotten any in my mouth. Sometimes I notice the condensation-juice looks high, I forget about it, and now it's pretty minimal again. It must be falling back in. With the cone the juice seems to 'wick' further up the sides of the plastic toward the mouthpiece. But again, I haven't gotten any juice through the mouthpiece yet (on both how it came and either method) with the 1.5 (counting the fill on the video as a half) times I've filled it up. I was driving in the car, too, and with my high-strung setup that's not a gentle ride :) I thought I was going to have to take the mouthpiece off to empty it once and a while but the juice must fall back down when it gets large enough to overcome its adhesion to the sides or an unsolvable, mystic phenomena on those lines

Cool! I'm still trying to find the right mojo with the gaskets. I think the issue definitely is the condensation sticks to the sides of the tube so it doesn't make it down into the funnel. I also believe this issue is more prevalent for heavy vapers. If you don't hit your PV as much, the juice has time to pool back into the funnel, but if you're chain vaping, it just keeps sticking to the side.

So, how is this thing different than a larger ce2 clearomizer?

Hoping Chris could chime in here since he knows better than me. But... it's made by a different manufacturer I think. It uses welds instead of solder, the tube may be a different plastic, the tip and both gaskets have a different design. The engine design looks roughly the same. Functionally it's almost like a MAP tank, because the tube is so wide the wicks don't get pinched like they do in a CE2 so wicking tends to be better.

yes it is like a MAP tank but more affordable and if you already have a syringe, easier to fill in my opinion. the plastic does feel different to me, more give if I push on it, but it could be the larger diameter.

I wasn't thinking and put one of these in my pocket (on my GLV2mini). It was before I got into and I was just driving in my car, but when I took it out to vape the mouthpiece was cocked a little. Upon closer inspection there are countless hair-line cracks in the tube where the mouthpiece meets, just on the top 1/4" inch there. I can only just barely feel them on the outside and not on the inside. No juice gets up there anyway so it's not a problem. Moral of the story: respect the VISION.

It's definitely been respecting me with VG, though :thumbs: I had a fill of a different flavor in VG today and there was just a trace of liquid condensation on the side between the two seals (you can't even see it on the picture). When I exhale on these with VG I can't see the laptop computer screen. Still very happy with these
