Need help with accessories for eGo C

[hoanger]

I'm having some trouble figuring out the difference between everything and I want to get some accessories for the eGo C

I'm looking at getting a new drip tip and a new cartomizer - I think I'm using the terms correctly...

First I am looking at these tips
https://www.canvape.com/product-p/candt.htm

And this tank
https://www.canvape.com/product-p/vivi2.0.htm

I've heard good things about vivi nova, so I thought this would be a good pick.

1) My questions are - will the drip tips and this tank work together?
2) Is this all I need to get it working with the eGo C?
3) What I've read is that we need to replace atomizers after a certain time - what kind of atomizers do I need?
4) Once I have this all set up - what do I need to do to maintain it? What replacement parts are needed?

I basically want something kinda like this -

If I'm missing something or if you guys have suggestions - please let me know! I'm reading about a wick and ohms and different coils... starting to get lost!

Those tips should be fine. The vivi comes with 3 heads a 1.8, 2.4, and 2.8. I myself like to keep extra heads around (just incase). I think your doing fine, just add juice ,and vape ,and repeat . Do you have a extra battery? Its always good to have a back up.

if you like cartomizers i would try an f-16 boge tank, and find the resistance you like, and get extra replacement heads for that nova,
personally don't like the replaceable coil wick design just my opinion, people seem to like them.

but otherwise you are doing good.

I have recently just started vaping myself. I am absolutely in love with the Vivi Nova tank and am getting the EVic next week. I have been using an ego-v battery. My only problem is trying to find that all day vape flavor. I am loving the minty type flavors. Any suggestions would be appreciated =)

 

[hoanger]

Thanks guys!

OK so I think I'll order that tank and the tips then...

As for the wick and atomizer portion - I'm still trying to wrap my head around - do I replace the wick or do I just buy a new tank each time since they are about $6/each?

I don't have an extra battery yet - I'll probably grab one of those too.

bear in mind taste is subjective, me i vape on Dragon's blood(ec blends) and vanilla malt, black cherry,banana, what ever i am in the mood for.
can you tell i got a sweet tooth?
i would pick a flavor you enjoy and use it.
getting away from the tobacco flavors seems to help me stay away from the analogs

Just the wick part, it will come as one piece . Just screw it on.

Thank you!

Just to confirm - is this it?
https://www.canvape.com/product-p/vivicoil.htm

How much should I purchase? A better question - how long does one last?

Do I have to replace the atomizer as well?

Canvape's a great supplier with reasonable prices. If unsure about anything email Tom and he'll get you set up.

No. That's the head (coil+ wick) for the SmokTek Clearomizer. Look here:
https://www.canvape.com/product-p/vivikit.htm Order the heads from this page and the smaller Mini Vivi Nova from https://www.canvape.com/product-p/vivi2.0.htm
In the pic you supplied there's also a cone that covers the exposed threads between the battery and the Vivi:
https://www.canvape.com/product-p/shortytc.htm
The heads should last at least 4-6 weeks BUT you will need to wash and dry burn them- removes carbon on coil and old gunked up juice on wicks.
As for ohms if you enjoy a warm vape you'll want the 1.8 ohm heads. If you like a cooler vape get the 2.4 heads. Realize Canvape also has stalls on the weekend in Toronto, Barrie , Brampton and Scarborough- saves on delivery charges. If you are paying for delivery then consider ordering a bunch of heads as they're only $1.50 apiece.
Cheers and the Best of Luck.

1) My questions are - will the drip tips and this tank work together?

Yes. eGos are 510 thread, the most common in the PV world.

2) Is this all I need to get it working with the eGo C?

Yes

3) What I've read is that we need to replace atomizers after a certain time - what kind of atomizers do I need?

They are referred to as "tanks" or "clearomizers". The head ( contains wick+ coil) that is inside the clearo is easily replaced.

4) Once I have this all set up - what do I need to do to maintain it? What replacement parts are needed?

All you'll need are extra heads BUT some acidic juices will etch/ damage the plastic tank. They also sell metal tanks for this reason. Understand also, as mentioned above, some maintenance of the heads is required- quite a simple process.

Glad your back, Vapoor eyes
I was starting to worry.
I have moved to DIY mostly.

 

[Vapoor eyes er]

It's good to be back. Mkts are a $$ maker right now and I need to be focused. Really good to see some of the Vets such as yourself...kinda like coming home.
Cheers and I hope you're keeping well.

I'll have to start stalking you

While I agree it is very important to have extra heads on hand, if cared for correctly your heads should last much longer than 4-6 weeks. I am still using the original I put on my mini vivi when it arrived last October. I thoroughly clean my vivi and wicks about every 4 weeks and do a good dry burn. The juice I use is super sweet but adding the dry burn has kept my coil squeaky clean.

I am doing great, March 1st, Retired at 56
I don't know if you really want to go over there. I went thinking it would be peaceful, but just got a visit from CAASA.

Perfect thank you! That's a perfect answer.
I ended up ordering 2 mini nova tank kits, 2 drip tips, and five 2.4ohm heads. Hoping they get here quick! I'm excited to get it going. Totally missed getting the cover, but I'll get that the next time for sure.

What a helpful forum!
Now I just need to figure out how to dry burn and clean the wicks.

You're welcome. Many here did the same for me when I first began vaping so I'm just passing on their knowledge. Here's a Vivi Nova Maintenance Vid by PBusardo- LOVE his vids.
Cleaning the head starts at about 7:02 but the entire vid is very educational. Also explains how to rebuild the head:



Cheers and the Best of Luck....the cone that you forgot to order is basically for looks so no biggie.

I'm new also and appreciate your questions ..... and all the answers. This post is to thank you for the canvape tip. Happily, I just dropped a chunk of change at their site - epipe for the hubster, pretty ego twists for me - awesome! They even have the Capella vanilla custard flavoring Thanks again!

 

[Vapoor eyes er]

You're welcome. Some vendors specialize in hardware and others in juice. JUGHEADS.co We've Got the Vapors ! has amazing juice and is just outside of Calgary. Sometimes he closes shop temporarily when backed up with orders. Has a HUGE following.
After 5 post wait 1 hr for the ECF servers to reset and request a Cdn Vendors List:
