Pyrex ViVi Nova V1 tank leaks internally

[graywoulf]

I bought a Pyrex ViVi Nova V1 tank to use on my Kamry K1000 ePipe and it leaks internally causing me to get ejuice into the mouthpiece and my mouth. That along with the intense gurgling sound is at the least annoying. I tried installing a new coil thinking that the leakage was from a bad internal seal but that did not help. There is no external leakage at all by the way. Anyone else ever have this problem or know of a cure?

Throw it in the trash and get a better tank that was one of the first tanks to hit the market and it sucked. Any of the sub tanks are pretty good you dont have to use sub ohm coils in them unfortunately a lot of shops and vendors still sell the crappy preforming stuff . Aspire Nautilus is a pretty good tank also.

Sounds like a vacuum leak from inside the tank allowing it to drain out. I would also cut my losses on it after checking the orings. There are much better tanks out there.

I guess I have heard enough to figure it out. I'm going tank shopping. Thanks for the feedback guys!!

does it leak right away or maybe after a refill or something?

vivi novas have the known problem of the head unscrewing when you take the top cap off to refill. If you tighten up the head a bit more than what seems normal it won't unscrew when you take the lid off during refills. Hopefully that's all your problem is. Good luck.

Apparently this only occurs when I use this tank on my Vamo mods. I tried it on my Vision Spinner 2 and it works fine. I might try drilling the air holes a tiny bit larger though which might cure the problem altogether.

That's really strange, it shouldn't leak at all, and it really shouldn't depend on what it's screwed in to. Maybe on the spinner you just got lucky?

Is the center post inside the tank moving when you screw it on to the vamo? I guess what I'm asking is, is the 510 head on the vamo smaller in diameter than the head on the spinner? Perhaps it's pushing up the post when you put it on the vamo & causing a seal break where it's not being pushed on the spinner.
