You are very handsome, but can you throw a football? lol..... Tina Fey is pretty, too and funny! :)

I was checking out videos of the T2's and had the same thoughts about them. I thought they might be rebuildable as the heads were sticking out the top, but I guess not.... I see the T3's have come out now... They aren't rebuildable either though.... I have an old clearo that I keep trying to clean and dry burn, hoping for different results.... d'oh! Kind of expensive for throwaways....

The T2 and T3 both have replaceable atty heads if that is what you mean by rebuildable. I think the Kanger T3's are awesome by the way and Eric should have them soon.

They are replaceable, not rebuildable. With a replaceable, you have to buy a new head, similar to putting a new carto into a tank. But, with a rebuildable, you can buy your own wire and wick and make one yourself, like the nova style tanks. That way you aren't limited to the stock heads that they sell. You can make your coils out of cotton, bamboo, whatever suits your fancy and they are REALLY inexpensive, as in only a few cents a piece! It is more advanced though! I haven't tried it myself, but I hope to soon. They make it look easy on the videos.... lol! Some places will even sell pre-made coils if you don't want to make your own, I have heard about them going to 25 cents! You could get 10 pre-mades for the price of just one replaceable head! Not to mention that you really only need a new coil, not the entire head, usually!

I haven't heard of anyone trying to rebuild one yet. I don't think they would be as easy to rebuild as the Vivi nova's being as the coils appear to be more accessible.

I don't know if you even could. With the vivi's, you have to put the wires in properly, one for negative and the other positive. Looks really easy and accessible. But, with these, they are similar to the stardusts, they have a long tube where the coil sits at the bottom. I did just see some heads that were very inexpensive, but still.... I never really cared for these types of things, probably because I don't clean them often enough..... They always seem to clog on me and the juice will come up through the mouthpiece. The do work well out of the box, but I'm not finding it worth the price compared to a regular carto....

Hey ya'll. So I finally got some pre punched cartos, cuz I havent learned how to punch my own (I know, I know. Sorry Tx!) Anywho, I have been using ViVi Novas exclusively and some Thors and wow, this carto tank is NOISY!!! I remember the crackle of the carto, which is fine, I actually like it but I dont remember it sounding this airy! Is there something I can do to make it not so "whiny"? Lol.

I have a tank that was punched and it is loud. I find that the cartos that are made punched at the factory seem to be less noisy... Maybe you could wrap a blanket around it? lol.... just kidding! I have no idea! :)

Does anyone know what the F1 code on the Mini Lambo is? I received it in the mail today, and it works beautifully, but my ViVi Nova wont fire and it gives me an F1 code....

My Lambo throws that code if there isn't a connection made to the Viva. I don't know what would cause that in your situation because the Lambo has the floating pin in it. If you press the fire button 5-6 times does it measure a resistance?

Nope, thats when I get the F1 code.

I get that when I have a short in the coils that I make, or a bad connection in one. I get it most often when I am messing with the DID, or Griffins.

All of my ViVis, Thors and T2s work on my other PV. This wont be the PV for me if I can only get 1 of each attachment that I vape to work.

I found out that the T2s require a ego to 510 adaptor to work, but everything else works great on my full size Lambo.:confused: Hopefully you can get the Vivi's to work. How heavy is your mini? My full size is pretty heavy as I could use it as a weapon!

Yea I tried them with the adapter as they wont screw on otherwise. Only one fires. Its a pretty heavy device. I sure do like the device, I just wished it worked right.

Kaleb is it the DV Nova that you are having problem working with your mini Lambo? After reading your recent thread regarding the DV Nova replacement heads, I pulled my other 3 new DV Nova's out and all of them had an F1 code on my Lambo. I took all 3 of them apart completely including the coil head. I discovered that with the floating center pin of the Lambo will not force the center pin of the Nova in far enough to make contact with coil head. I was able to push the center post in further with the coil head removed. With the coil head attached it won't let you push the center post far enough in. Also there is a silicone rubber seal inside that tends to push the pin back out too. Now all of mine are working at this moment anyway! :)
I also tried the universal head on the DV Nova and wasn't able to get it to work either. It is to short to make contact with the center post inside of the Nova. Darn now what are we going to do? Fortunately for me I can rebuild, but I understand your situation. I do like these units better than the new Vivi's as they seem to draw much easier.

I sent the unit back. Thank you though, thats interesting! Yes it was the DV ViVi. I thought they were basically them same device, just weren't from Vision. I didnt know they had differing specs. So yea, now im sorta stuck with 2.8 ohm heads, which is unfortunate. Oh well.

So it turns out my mom didnt have time to mail back my lambo today, so ive been fiddling with it. I managed to get my ViVis and Stardusts to work. The weird thing is that only one of my Kanger T2s will fire still, with the SAME adapter attached. Suggestions??

The adapter has a center pin also that might not be touching the Kanger center pin possible. Maybe if you push it up slightly from the 510 connection end(the smaller diameter end) it may work. All of my various adapters seem to be adjustable anyway. With the Lambo having the floating pin it should still make contact with the center pin of the adapter. Not sure it will work, but?
