Received Vivi Nova V2 Today Don't know what to think??

[Steve K]

Just got the vivi Nova V2 tank in today and I have to say it has a very thick draw to it which I don't particularly like and I don't really hear much of any cooking or sizzling,just a little,Pretty quiet.but I'm used to a Smoktech eGo SCT 2.0ohm 2.5ml Clearomizer Mini tank which in my opinion is pretty good.I'm using the head that was already on the unit.And I thought the V2 had shorter wicks but this has the long ones.I filled a little above 1.40 ml.I'm going to let this juice run down and try another see if I get any difference,Not to impressed by the vape so far but it is O.k.

you may have to break it in a little. when I use a new head for a vivi nova, there is a small amount of flavor and vapor. keep using it, break it in, and youll notice the difference. after awhile, you will get good flavor, vapor, and throat hit.

 

[Steve K]

Thats what I was thinking,But what's with the harder draw??And are they normally quiet units.

 

[Amish Ed]

Also, try the 1.8ohm head. The one that ships on the unit is usually the 2.4ohm. What battery are you using it on?

 

[Steve K]

Ego Twist Amish Ed.

 

[XfooYen]

Yeah. Need more info. What PV are you on? What resistance is your atty? The V2 def has long wicks. You can cut them shorter but I think longer is better. They do need breaking in and at least a twist or equivalent vv to get the right power. If the draw is too airy you can stick a toothpick into one of the air holes in the knurled base and break it off flush. That will cut the airflow a bit. You can remove it with a small sharp needle if you want/need.

 

[Amish Ed]

I too am using a Twist and also a Bolt. I like a cooler vape and I'm running the 2.4ohm at 3.7v. Most people seem to like the 2.4ohm at about 4-4.5v. That'll give you more TH and more vapor. And yeah a little break in is normal.

 

[Steve K]

Xfooyen the draw is opposite of airy but harder pull.It is a 2.4 atty.I have the twist set 2 notches above 3.2 but probably can go higher to 4.0 possibly which I never do,But I will change juice soon and see what happens.

 

[Steve K]

I noticed when I set at 4.0 I get no flavor.

 

[elmattias]

are you using a cone to hide your threads? if so does it have air channels to allow airflow? if it doesn't, you need to get air going to the airholes, you can do that with a file, post a picture of the nova on top of the twist if you can and we can maybe see if there are air channels, also, are you using the mini or the mega sized nova?

Oh. I misunderstood. I think 3.6v is too low for a 2.4 atty but...idunno. Is your tank a VISION Vivi or a knock-off? Wish I could help but as they say, ymmv. The type of juice matters too. Just wondering, what's the PG/VG ratio of the juice you're using?

 

[Steve K]

I just changed juice and same thing,Do I have to crank it up to 4.00 to get a great vape??I also put the Clearomizer back on and great vaping.what is up with this thing??I've been using it over an hour now.Do I have to remove anything inside.I pulled it out of box and screwed the off top and filled it.Thats all.

 

[Steve K]

It is a vision it says on box,I first used a ratio of 70%pg 30% vg and now I'm using 100% VG.Are you gonna tell me this thing can't handle vg juice.I use a $6.00 clearomizer and get great vape with any thing I put in in and now I'm going to 4.0 to get the same vap as I would at 3.2 with the cheap clearo.

 

[VaprRipper]

The one with the air holes in the knurled base is the version 1.

Just got mine two days ago and am going through the same trial and error. Noticed a substantial improvement after running a tank through and cleaning the atty (just hot water). If you have a 'C' model thread cover I found that if I do not tighten the VN down too hard it gives me 1/2 a turn on the cover to increase or decrease the gap (air flow restriction) to where I like it. As for flavor, if it has been sitting for a while, a small unpowered pull seems to start the wicking and then it's good until it sits again. Going to try and loosen the thread and use a pin to poke the wick around the coil at the next cleaning as the cap doesn't seem to be pressing on them. I was pretty frustrated with it for the first day, but thankfully I'm stubborn and it's working quite well now.

 

[VaprRipper]

Should work right out of the box... mine did. Only the 2.4 ohm head is any good, the other 2 heads suck. I use 50/50 in mine with no issues. Make sure it say Vision on the side of the box. Long wicks are better... can vape to the bottom of the tank with tipping and twisting. Do NOT fill tank higher than the top line marked on the side of the tank. Coil is very quiet. I actually just converted my heads to stainless steel wicks and WOW! Got my first nic buzz from an ecig.

[Steve K]

Is there supposed to be a rubber piece over top of the wicks,Just wondering if this is something to remove.

 

[XfooYen]

100% VG unfortunately will not wick fast enough on a long wick. Dilute it with a little distilled water.

 

[cduhh]

So overall do you like it?

 

[XfooYen]

The one with the air holes in the knurled base is the version 1.

OK, Then. The airholes above the threads. Same advice.
