No vape from new ego twist and stardust. nic'ing-out help!

Well I am glad you are finding your grove, but so you know the vivi nova is a clearo, just it is a rebuildable that happens to also be a tank.

Thanks Nancy. I know it's a clearo./ I just meant I was worried about ordering another clearo before I ordered the Vivi Nova, cause lots of people complain about dry hits from clearos. I couldn't understand how the Vivi could be much better than my failed Stardusts, since the design is so similar. The Vivi Nova is better. I don't know why, but it is. No dry hits so far. Nice clearo. I would buy more.

I skipped all the other clearos and went with the vivi nova, and I'm glad I did. No regrets. My smoktech cartos haven't been used in a while.

That does not match my experience with smoktech cartos. But good on ya'. Use whatever works. Mostly, I don't like the way they seem to fail…smoktechs for me seem to flood like mad with no warning when they're ready to die; the vivi nova just keeps getting gunkier and dirtier until the vape quality diminishes……and so far that just means they need to be cleaned.

I'd suggest the vivi nova as a primary over smoktech cartos or clearos at this point. It's been hands-down better for me. If you're using cartos that are better than the smoktechs I've been getting, I could see preferring them……but not based on my experience.

Thank you, mostapha. I really appreciate your insight. I guess I got lucky with the smoktech. It's been working fine and I have extra carto's for when it dies. Thanks for the heads up. I'll always keep a backup of some sort with me.

I have the Stardusts and Vivi Nova but they are the long wick and both work very well. I have one short wick of each and I have to tilt the clearo to keep the wick saturated- would never buy short wick again. As for carto+ tank I love the setup.

The heads are rebuildable, but I'm not sure that's fair. I hesitate to believe that they're in the same league with the zenisis and the other high end stuff, but……I'm sure there's some form of diminishing returns in there somewhere. Plus, you don't have to rebuild the vivi nova.

No where in my post did I say, nor have I said in any other post, that the vivi nova is in the same class as the higher end stuff; however, that does not change the fact they are a rebuildable. They also have the advantage for many of a lower learning curve. Add to that the fact they don't leak even when placed on their side, thrown in a bag or purse, they are actually a very good option for many people.

You make it sound like only rebuilding the heads is not the same. Just what do you think you rebuild with one of the higher end units? It is still a coil and wick that gets redone, and in many cases the higher end ones use the same materials as what the vivi nova uses.

As to the you don't have to rebuild the heads on the vivi nova, you are correct. You don't, but once again just because you can buy replacement heads already to just screw on does not change the fact they can be rebuilt and many of us do so.
