Question from a novice

[EagleGreen]

Hey there have a question I would like to get answers about. I have a Inferno and a LavaTube and as of now I use them both with the Tube tank that Volcano sells. They both have a carto in them and I was thinking that when I'm out of replacement cartos I was going to try a Vivi Nova tank or one like it.. Can someone give me the pros/cons in using a tank like that over a tank with a carto setup.. Another thing I want to ask is I see a lot of setups w/o a tank, just a long carto w/ a drip tip.. What is it about vaping with this setup that makes people use it? For me I want something that's going to give me the best flavor of the juice.

Knowing what I do now, I would say go with the vivi nova tank - easy to use and fill. The carto have fiber filling in them that has to be kept wet to prevent burning, even with a tank around them they just never worked well for me. No question on how much juice is left in a nova - you can see it.

I did a kind of pictoral dictionary of common vaping attachments to use on your battery device here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...4-proper-terminology-carto-tank-what-lol.html

All these devices are a little different in how they provide flavor, throat hit, and vapor production. Everyone has their own opinion of which ones work best for them. The only way to know if one is best for you or not is to try them all out.

Many people believe that the best flavor comes from dripping juice directly into an atomizer. A few drops of juice is dropped into the atomizer or drip tip and vaped for a few minutes. The process is repeated over and over. I never cared for this myself as one must carry a bottle of juice where ever you wish to vape. I also could never perfect vaping this way, your results may vary. This may be what you were referring to earlier, or it could have been a cartomizer.

For myself, I get the most flavor from using a cartotank. This is a cartomizer filled with e-juice and has at least one hole in it. It is inserted into a reservoir tank and that is filled with more e-juice. These can hold enough juice to last a day or more. I'm assumiing this is what you have been using.

The Vivi Nova tanks work a little differently than a cartotank. Instead of polyfill in a metal tube (cartomizer), these use string wicks to draw the juice into the atomizer head which contains the heating coil. These are extremely easy to fill with juice, just screw the top off and fill. However, from my personal experience, the flavor is muted with some juices. Your results may vary.
