Safe to keep juice in my viv nova for awhile?

[WillyCornbread]

Hi all, I couldn't find anything on this via a search. I have 3 vivi mini novas and I keep different flavors in them. Is it safe to keep juice in the nova's for a few days to a week? I wasn't sure if this had any effect on the head or the tank itself? I know some citrus juices will crack so I stay away from those altogether.

Thanks for any advice - b

Should be fine, WC.

I have 3 Vivi Novas going everyday...and I usually fill all of them up every morning. Yet, some flavs I don't particularly like will sometimes stay in the Vivi Nova for 2 weeks till it's gone. No prob on this end.

I agree, shouldn't be a problem. Welcome to the forum and good luck!

Should be fine. On heavier juices, though, like dark chocolates, caramels, vanillas, etc, the juice will darken in the tank overtime. This isn't a huge issue tbh, but sometimes the coils can get gunked up fast this way I've found. Obviously you need to vape the stuff to gunk the coils, but my chocolate mint, vanillas, and coffee mixes get very dark in the tank if I leave them for more than a day or two. Haven't really noticed a difference in taste however, so I'm not so sure that the darkening is an issue.

I do it all the time, haven't had any issues yet.

You got a vivi? I would recommend upgrading to the metal tank. I did it and never worried again.

Awesome - thanks for the advice, much appreciated. I looked at the metal tanks, but went with 3 of the clear ones. I might pickup a metal one so I can vape some citrus-y stuff - especially interested in trying the ecto cooler ones I've heard about.

It really depends on the liquid. Some you may have problems with and some not, it's a flip of the coin. There are juices like cinnamon, banana and cola that pretty consistent with damaging plastic, but others - there are variables like vendor recipes, extra flavor shots, etc. One might think coconut could be trouble since it kind of has a little citrus thing going on (at least it seems like it to me), but I've had an 80pg/30vg coconut sitting in a vivi for over 6 months and it's fine.

EEEKKK! What happened to my tank?

i have 2 novas 2.0 and a 2.8ml and both give off a plastic taste, they kinda just sit there , ive cleaned them well but still give off a plastic taste every few hits, but i wouldent let the juice sit to long, i have noticed after time the juice can melt off the plastic cover on the wires (more so on cartos) and also watch for mold in drip tips and tight areas. no more than 2 weeks at the most, id say......

if u have an old carto bust it apart and you will see the color leaking into the filler , nasty be safe and healthy
