Older Folks and Vaping

[Debadoo]

We'll just put some wheels on the recliner and twirl ya around in circles.

{{{{{yiddle & Deb}}}}}

Wahooooo!! I'll go for that!!!

Hey Mike? I suppose you think this went unnoticed how you so cleverly diverted attention off of your purty $tuff to my4jewels purty $tuff. Didn't work. Nice try though!

@those who want somebody to use their Swiffer
I'll send my hubby over to clean your floors. Somehow he ended up with an obsession about clean floors. Heaven forbid somebody walks in the house with shoes on, or worse yet walks around in bare feet. Don't ya know it leaves oily footprints on the floor?!? I can't go barefoot in my own house. Our grown kids give him vaccums and steam cleaners and Swiffers for gifts. Eeegads!

omgggggggg I thought only my aunt was like this. She would totally freak out if you kept your shoes on, or walked barefoot in the house. I was always barefoot or in sandals, and one time went to visit I didn't even have any socks with me. She sure found me some in a hurry!

Would someone point me to a dealer with the absolute best strawberry juice that really tastes like strawberries.

The only strawberry I've tried is vaporbomb's strawberry pie. They don't say it has whipped cream in it, but you can sure taste it, so may not be what you want, but it's my current fav.....and the usps has been shipping my package of it all over the dang place....everywhere but here!!
Iffy, is capellas strawberries and cream a whipped cream flavor??

That is surprising to me. I've had very good luck with the Vivi Nova's I use. I use them on my VV PV's and haven't used them on egos but mine have worked very good.

Same here Tx. I've mine on vv and ego and they're wonderful, easiest thing to clean I've seen yet. I'm guessin it's the heavy vg they aren't reacting well to.

Janet like yiddle and Iffy said....I cut all my long wicks down and fluffed em up some. Much better. But it's odd on the mini that there is no flavor. I haven't tried it, but lots of folks are saying they're getting better flavor from the mini than the regular even, and I get great flavor from the regular. Of course all I can compare it to is the boge carto (awful for me), stardust and ce3 bc. Tiny, I don't remember if you said you long or short wicks, but you might wanna cut em down if you have long wicks. Unless you've just given up on em.

I have 2 of the Viva Nova 2.5 kits and I'd really like to make them work for me but the taste is very muted. I am using the short wick and about 50/50 pg/vg.

 

[FranC]

Any deals on the gripper out there?

 

[Ronaldo]

I'm hoping to also get the free gallon of vg from P&G.

Who is P&G? I'd like to check into the vg by the gallon.

 

[FranC]

P&G chemical. I don't have the link but I'm sure someone will be along with it.

That is surprising to me. I've had very good luck with the Vivi Nova's I use. I use them on my VV PV's and haven't used them on egos but mine have worked very good.

I run mine on a ProVari and keep bumping up the voltage to get any vapor from it until it tastes burned. I think it has more to do with the dark thick juices I use that gunk up the heads quickly than it does with the overall design of the Vivi.

...Tiny, I don't remember if you said you long or short wicks, but you might wanna cut em down if you have long wicks. Unless you've just given up on em.

I've got the short wicks and do a lot of twirling to keep them wet. Until I find a thinner clearer juice to use I'll probably put it in the back of the box and stick to the cartos.

I would never discourage anyone from trying a Vivi Nova, obviously a lot of people like them and it hits great with a fresh head. But like every other vaping product it doesn't suit everyone.

 

[MikeE3]

I was impressed with the Vivi Nova initially but I find that they don't hold up very long with the juice I use. I got some replacement heads for it and I've run about 3 mls of juice through one and the vapor is about 1/2 of what it was new. I do use a lot of VG and find that a single coil carto in a tank last longer than the Vivi does. I haven't had much luck cleaning them and I spend way too much time fiddling with it.

As they say, your mileage may vary.

Like other's I find the Vivi has a muted flavor - but I'm OK w/ that because I don't taste flavors well anyway, I like the connivence of re-filling them and for me they last a lot longer than fussing w/ carto's (even in tanks).

I have been using 6 of them from 6 to 8 weeks. I just recently retired 2 heads. Which means some of the heads have lasted me almost 2 months (amazing!). The heads that gunk up the most were used w/ high VG (70%). My other juices are 30/70 to 50/50 PG/VG. It's the heads used with high VG that were retired. I've got a mix of short wicks, long skinny wicks, and long fat wicks. Haven't really noticed a difference in any of them. Maybe they've lasted so long because I rotate 6 of 'em, it's not like I've used 1 or 2 consistently for 6 to 8 weeks.

Tiny - do you check the ohm's regularly. I've found that my 2.4Ω overtime go up to 3Ω's, causing me to raise voltage to get the 'same' vape as when new.

My experience with the vivi nova is like Tx.....I have only replaced one head in 3 months. I just tried my first mini...and got good flavor from mine so far...have only used one juice in it.....will try another flavor.

Edit: thinking about this....I don't drip, so maybe I'm more accepting of "muted flavor"???

Running by to wave Good Morning

Have a great day everyone!

I use VG too. I'm on my second tank with it and haven't noticed this. Might be because I just made some Mint and put in too much water.
The test will come with the cinnamon. This I make on the thick side.

Have you tried doing the dry burn?

Good morning
I found this review on the Vivi Nova's

I couldn't have said it better myself!!!

Good find.

Has everyone seen Phil's Vision Stardust review? If not, it's worth your time for the giggles.

Taste Your Juice | VISION EGO CLEAROMIZER V3 (I THINK) – LONG WICK

 

[jj2]

The first of that is hilarious Gloria!!

I bought some of the first ones and then got a bulk of the second. I've had to mod them a bit but they worked well after that. I've continued to use them just to wait out the changing madness. I'm glad I did.

Just now looking into new things (as you know).

 

[Iffy]

Iffy, is capellas strawberries and cream a whipped cream flavor??

Although I don't have an acute palette, I'd say yes. My lady v -verts luv the flav. It's OK for me, but I want to find a 'fresh' SB taste flav.

Any deals on the gripper out there?

Last night I ordered one HERE for $50.48 using coupon code vapetv.

 

[Tiny]

Tiny - do you check the ohm's regularly. I've found that my 2.4Ω overtime go up to 3Ω's, causing me to raise voltage to get the 'same' vape as when new.

I've got a 2.8 ohm head on and it checks out at 2.8 before I start vaping on it. Once I take a few puffs it drops to 2.2 ohms.

I use VG too. I'm on my second tank with it and haven't noticed this. Might be because I just made some Mint and put in too much water.
The test will come with the cinnamon. This I make on the thick side.

Have you tried doing the dry burn?

I've tried the dry burns on a couple of heads in the past and get a burned taste on everything after that.

Phil just needs to figure out that a PV is not an olimpic torch. You don't need to hold it vertical when you have it in your hand, and you can lay it on it's side on your desk.

Can't say this often enough, if you are getting dry scratche hits, burn taste, etc with a Nova or stardust turn the voltage down. These are not boge cartos, and their power requirements are different.
I just put a different cappuccino flavor in my mini nova with a 2.4 ohm head in it, and I had to turn it all the way down to 3v before the taste was right.
If you are one of those that insists that something has to work properly at 4.5 or 5 volts then these products are not for you.

The T 2 clearos would be compatible with that battery but their price on the T2's is three to four times higher than elsewhere. They are 4.00 at wordup and 16.99 there for the same carto. eGo 2.4ml CC Coil Changeable clear cartomizer clearomizer
I would shop around a bit if I were you. Their prices are very high on everything.

If ya don't get da Twist and you want a nice rea$onable kit, go HERE. I've obtained at least ten Riva kits for some of my v-verts in the past.

Appreciate the input - Yes - I know it's high priced but I found the site by the 50% code someone posted on here a few pages back. Thought I'd asked how long it was good for. So figured that "Justice" would be $30. I've wondered about the Riva before. Guess I'm frustrated w/ the leaking Clearo's. LOVE LOVE LOVE my SI batteries - but notice the new juices flavor is muted in the cartos - leaking from Clearo's so ??? I'm looking ... Just to something that doesn't leak or mute the new flavors. I'm sure the main menthol w/ "something" will remain the all-day vape and SI carto's will be just fine.

Gosh I love the Butterscotch w/ Extra Flavor mixed in the RY4! Wow! And the Blueberry Ice! Cool Melon! That's why considering something else as I feel limited by the 808 threads in what I can find. I don't get much 'puter time these days.
Checking out your leads tho! Thanks all!
