VaporBreak.com has Twist batteries starting at $16 and Vivi Nova $6. I bought a Phonenix Rebuildable Atomizer from them for $6.50. It arrived yesterday, and I'm very pleased so far!
Slide on over to DiscountVapers and grab yourself a couple of E1-V Clearomizers (LR or SR versions). They are the same price as the Vivi Nova Mini, have better flavor due to fluffier wicks, look better, hold more juice, and they have a sleeve/collar that covers up the ego threads attached to the tank for free(which is win).
When I was vaping Stardusts I would frequently get juice in the battery's juice well. It was caused by one of two things, but all came from the same area.
1: I added too much juice and covered over the wicks. This causes juice to flow down the atomizer tube and into the well.
2: A crack in the tank cause back pressure and pulled juice into the well. You can tell if this is the case because you will see bubbles when you vape.
The problem is the slot area around the wicks. It can drain your juice straight down, no problem.

next time i go shopping ill look into different clearomizers, but for my purposes now the vivi has been a great place to start.
That was what I thought, but now I'm seeing problems with them when I've taken them apart, washed them, and put them back together. Now I can no longer lay them down, and it is very risky to fill to the "fill line."
What bottom seal? Is there anywhere to get replacement seals?
your mini vivi nova should NOT be leaking onto the battery threads. there is probably a problem w/ the white cap covering the head or perhaps you got a defective one.
mini vivi nova's usually come w/ THREE heads of different resistances (1.8ohms, 2.4ohms, and 2.8ohms). If you purchase one cheaper without the heads, that probably just means the seller is keeping the extra heads and reselling them for the extra cash (which in my opinion is kinda sketchy).
Personally, I had my mini vivi nova for over a week of heavy usage & traveling with it and there has been no reported leakage onto the battery thread.
And yes, any leakage onto battery threads that is at least a drop of e-juice is caused by e-juice going down the center post probably due to faulty seals. If the clearomizer is faulty, this can occur when the clearomizer is placed on its side or jiggled around a bit.

Holy Cannelloni, Dragonbone!!! Thanks for that!!
I have just placed my order with them and am hoping to receive Phoenix Rebuildable, Ego-Ufo rebuildable, ce2's + Vivi Nova all for £15 including shipping to UK!! Utterly Brilliant!
There are 3 O rings on the Vivi Nova- One on the drip tip, one at the base of the head (where it threads on to the base) and one on the base where it threads on to the plastic tank. If any of these O rings are not seated properly, or missing, leaking will occur. There's also the silicon cap that sits on top of the head- it also must be seated properly and form a seal with the bottom of the drip tip.
As far as pricing ElectronicStix.Com : Vision Vivi Nova Tanks and Parts sells Mini or full size for $8.95 and includes:
2.0 or 3.5 ml clear tank
1.8ohm Coil Head
2.4ohm Coil Head
2.8ohm Coil Head
Black drip tip

A few days ago, I just got my eGo twist with a mini nova that allows for 2 mL of juice. I have had the same problem and found small amount of juice sitting inside the thread well on the eGo twist.
The first time, I thought it was because my hand slipped while filling the tank and a little juice went down into the hole of the head.
The second time, I accidentally filled it above the wick line.
After my second, clean up I decided to take apart the mini nova and wash everything. After drying and I inspecting the parts, I suspect the white cap that goes on the head might be the issue but the seal seems to be good. However, I don't know if I put it on correctly. There is, what looks like, a metal washer inside the white cap. The washer has one flat side and one "cone" side. I didn't remember how it was sitting before I took off the cap or if it even matters. It's been a day since I reassembled the mini nova and didn't have any leakage yet but I made sure that I didn't get any juice down the middle and I did not overfill.
Unless you pull the VNs totally apart and clean then dry before filling, a slight amount of juice making its way to the threads is the usual. No need to pull it apart to clean, it will work its way out using a few stiff dry drags before firing it. All tanks, even the VN style, work on a pressure differential. That's why some people complain about flooding cartos in a conventional DCT. It just happens once you break the seal. It's easily fixable unless way out of hand for some reason.
People should be really careful buying those ultra-cheap vivi novas. There are a lot of knockoffs out there, and a lot of them don't work very well.
I store my Mini Vivi Nova on its side over 90% of the time and haven't had a drop leak from any of the three I have. I'm wondering if you might have put the silicone cap that goes over the head on upside down. Inside the silicone cap one side has a metal piece that looks like a cup and the other side has a flat metal piece. The flat metal side goes down facing the head.
