Recommend a good clearomizer for 100% VG?

[Swer3397]

I am currently using Vision eGo Transparent Clearomizer V2 for 510/eGo, 1.8-2.0 ohm with a KGO.

They're OKAY but not great. I get dry vapes and find that it is hard to "drag" on it sometimes. Just yesterday I started to get a mild burnt taste and saw that the eliquid was discolored. I thought that I burned the thing out, but it seems okay now after refilling (should I be worried about that?).

I am using 100% VG from Virgin Vapor which is actually quite thinner than most. But I want something clear that eliminates the guesswork but perhaps performs better than these. Whether it's a carto or a clearo idc - still quite new to all this. Also would like something that lasts for awhile. Can anyone make some recommendations? Thanks!

My 1.8 ohm Vision Stardust CE4 v1 Worked really awesome.

Aren't these the same product?

I have been trying out these for about 2 weeks.

Kanger 2ohm EgO Clear'o'mizer

I am finding that they do not discolor my juice the way the stardust does, which is good. I like that they have no wicks and are bottom fed. But they are a wee bit leaky at the battery connection and can get gurgerly. Not a show stoper for me though.

Thanks for that suggestion. Why does the stardust discolor the juice? Is that a sign that something is wrong or it happens with all of 'em? I thought mine burnt out or something for awhile there but it still seems to be working. Also, do you use these Kangers with 100% VG at all?

Any other suggestions welcome.

As an off-the-shelf fix, try one with a little higher resistance, more like 2.4 ohms. That low of a resistance coil will get pretty warm. If you don't have excellent wicking of juice, you will surely risk burning. VG is hard to wick sometimes.

 

[Danidoo]

They all discolor the liquid. It is a "feature" of the stardusts. Rinse it out and it is all good. BTW my stardusts are the higher resistance so that won't solve the issue.

I have used the kangers with 50/50 but not 100% vg. The performance with the 50/50 leads me to believe 100% won't be a problem though.

Could someone tell me what the difference is between the Vivi Nova Vision Cartomizer and this Vision eGo Transparent Clearomizer V2 for 510/eGo, 1.8-2.0 ohm

Is the Stardust Clearomizer a tank?

Does the Vivi require any work to get it set up or does it just work like the stardust?

Vivi Nova comes with 1.8, 2.4 and 2.8ohm heads. The only setup needed is to decide on what resistance head you want to use. Many great reviews of it here, particularly version 2.0 and 2.5. Quickly becoming a very popular clearo.

And is the Vivi a tank or a clearo? From what I can glean it has a cartomizer in it instead of that wick setup in the stardusts?

No carto. Has a wick setup very similar to the stardust. Very easy to take apart and clean.

 

[Swer3397]

And is it better than the Stardust? I am not 100% clear on the difference. If I have a stardust should I bother with the Vivi? Other than it having different OHM ratings options it would probably work just the same - wicking issues, muted flavor etc. included.

I can only surmise based on what I read here, that some aspects of the VN are better than the Stardust (which I have not used myself). I do not see any reports of dry hits, burning on the latest VN's, but I read dry, burnt hit complaints about Stardusts frequently. I have never had a dry, burnt hit on the VN. They wick very well. Sometimes I do believe they mute the flavor, but, I came from carto/tanks and the flavor from the VN is so much cleaner I vastly prefer it. Describing flavor and taste is kind of tough as it is subjective and has to be compared with something else.

Thank you, this is what I wanted to know. I see they are kinda expensive and wanna know a bit more before trying. On many of these video reviews these people are doing things to them, like modifying the wicks, poking the vents with toothpicks etc. I just want something that works and wicks better than the Stardust especially if I am gonna be using 100% VG (again thinned out a bit).

The only thing I do is fluff the wicks before filing the tank. I haven't done any of the other things you mention nor felt the need to. It has been fiddle-free for me.

And it should work fine on a KGO right? How long do they last btw?

Will work fine on the kgo, they will last a long time as long as you maintain them as with all hardware. With replaceable atties you can buy a new one for what, 3 dollars or so and you are good to go again with your vivi nova. If you want a more clean appearance on the kgo I'd suggest getting the thread cover as well, the wider one for a large size tank the narrow one for a smaller size tank.

 

[Flyer]

Absolutely. Kgo is 3.7V. VN comes with three different heads/resistances. You'll definitely find a resistance or two the suit you best. You can then by replacement heads for about $2.50 or so making the VN cheap to keep. I have one head going for over two weeks now and is working as good as day one. Big plus is that you can rebuild the heads yourself for pennies, if you are so inclined.

 

[Swer3397]

Great news and thank you for the help. Finally, could you link me the latest version (the site you get them at) - I have looked around but not sure which is the latest. Also if there are replacement heads at the same place.
