Replacement parts for Vivi Nova V3?

[Amethyst_Star]

I am wondering if they sell the bottom piece that screws into the battery for these? Mine leaks once connected to a battery. It seems as if it's coming out of the tiny hole in the bottom piece. I don't get any leaks out of it when I tap it on a napkin, though. The tank and coil are fine, so I see no sense in replacing the whole thing. Thanks for any suggestions that you may have!

OOPS! Found a base for it! Sorry for the unnessary post!

They all leak. At least every one I have had does. Not a lot but the bottom of the 510 connection is wet.

The base I found was too big for my 3.5 ml Vivi Nova! I got a lame response from the ecig vendor. It would cost just as much to ship back as the base was priced. Told the vendor that I wasn't sending it back and left a bad review of the product. I've heard the mini Vivi Nova's are better, but I'm scared to take that risk. Looks like I'm stuck with the small clearomizers. *sigh*

Thanks for your reply!

I still use them all the time. I just wipe out the 510 connection everytime I refill the juice. I use it on a VAMO and it actually will work its way through the 510 until it weeps just a bit out of the switch. Good thing you can't take the VAMO apart, I would hate to see what the inside looks like.

But, it still works. Says something about the VAMO. Matter of fact I ordered a V3 today.

Actually, I've seen someone take a Vamo apart on YouTube. I forget the reviewers name, but I think he is on ECF.

My husband's first APV was the Vamo V2 and he likes it. He uses it when his eVic is charging.

How does he like the EVIC. Never really appealed to me but, I do like my VAMO. Got two of them. Both have the switch that's a little squirrelly. Works about 70% of the time.

I think he prefers the eVic, as it's lighter. Me, I'm always afraid of dropping mine and having it break on me. We both have lanyards for them, but mine keeps bumping up against my computer desk, so I don't always use it.

Late reply but I have found that these things are a lot tougher than they appear. Have dropped my VAMO several times with only scratches as the result.
