Does that mean that I need to 'get a life'

Had one once, but it became a bad habit so I gave it up. Now I just kick back and wait for the lawn to need mowing.

Life is over rated anyway!!!!

I'm on my fifth or sixth fillup of the Vivi Nova and looks like I need to clean it.....not bad though!!!

hi rik, welcome to the thread. Good luck on finding the elusive vape. Say - what's an SRT pre-wicked coil?

OK...I am trying to make amends by entering your name in a contest to win free juice. Am I forgiven?

It's a long read but basically it cuts the PH or something like that. I do know I can vape the stuff pretty much non stop now and it doesn't make the inside of my mouth or throat sore.

I finally made it through the whole thread. I am going to try it on my cinnamon roll and Kentucky Vanilla samplers. Let them sit over night and try them tomorrow. Thanks!

Just an update on the Knock off Vivi Nova's from youvape.com. I just got off the phone with the owner Dean was his name and a real nice guy. He is reimbursing me for the two novas I bought and more than made up for the missunderstanding about them. He does have the best prices on the Dekang juice I've found. 8.99 for 50 ml. E-Liquids

 

[Debadoo]

Wow Tx that's pretty awesome!

Yeah I thought so too. He was a real standup guy about the whole deal. I will definately be buying my Dekang juice from him.

You're welcome. I know it made a big difference for me. Not only doesn't it irritate my mouth/throat but I'm using it in the T2 and it's holding up great. Of course the latter could be because they are making the clear tubes out of better stuff!!

 

[jj2]

I got a couple of other pharmacies around to check and then, if I can't find it, I'll be ordering it online.

JJ - I went to the vinegar thread, but jeezzzz it is lonnnnnnnngggggg! LOL So could you just answer a couple of quick questions? (I did read part of it) Which vinegar do you use, AC or white, and how much? I think I want to try it. I love to vape, but it STILL hurts the back of my throat or I have to vape at very low voltage....like 3.0. Thanks in advance!

 

[MikeE3]

Oh No!

Here's my letter to Provape Support:

Today my mini just seemed like it was running 'hot'. I use 2.5Ω atty's and Vivi Nova tanks. I actually check Ω's a number of times of the atty's and Vivi's to see it they were dropping in Ω's because eveything was tasting too warm/hot. I run the Provari at 4 to 4.2 volts. I had to drop it down to 3.7-3.8 to get the vape I'm used to.

Then I started getting E5 error's w/ the Vivi (2.8Ω) tank, switched to an iO6 2.5Ω atty and still got E5 errors. With the atty on I did an Ω check and a batt check and both times the atty glowed brightly thru the drip tip and put out plums of vapor. Never have seen that before when doing those checks - it would just sizzle a bit then display the result.

Yikes - lastest attempt with it set at 4 volts & a 2.5Ω iO6 atty, almost as soon as I press the power button the atty is glowing through the drip tip. Seems to be putting out too much power for the settings.

Shall I send it back and if so where do I send it back and do I need a return authorization number, etc?​

Well I'm disappointed but thankful I have 2 more for backup.

(For non-Provari folks, an E5 is an internal circuit error. )

When I make up cinnamon, I do it in a four ounce jar. I use plain vinegar that is in one of the small bottles and I fill the cap (once) and add it.
I know this doesn't help much.

Oh Mike....disaster!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry.

 

[MikeE3]

Oh Mike....disaster!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry.

It'll be going back to the hospital. A 1/2 hr after mailing Provape Support, I got this reply from them. Now that's customer service as it should be.

It sounds like the capacitor has been damaged and the ProVari is now outputting more than 6 volts (that’s what the E5 error means). It definitely needs to come to the hospital for some minor surgery J​

 

[jj2]

A little surgery to make it all better!!

Glad they are going to take care of it.

Which vinegar do you use, AC or white, and how much?

Although I'm not JJ, I will say that I use ACV @ 1 drop/3 ml. Now, that's only for my DIY non-fruit juices; i.e. bakery/savory/'bakky.

BTW, I do use lemon juice for my DIY fruit flavs at the same 'dosage'.
