So, one of my Mini Nova coils has reached the end of it's useful life. Muted, "dry" taste on each vape. I tried cleaning, soaking, dry burns. Finally, I gave up in looked in there with a ear scope. OMG!!! yuk!!! It's no wonder it tasted like that! 
I've noticed these coils (the ones for the mini) tend to gunk up real fast, yet the ones on my rebuildable stardusts stay nice and shiney and new like much longer!
So I figured I would try dropping a stardust coil in the mini nova. They are both 2.4ohm, both Vision products, I figured what did I have to lose, worst possible case would be fry the battery, but I reasoned that was doubtful.
It's a tight fit. I even went so far as to use the little top stopper piece from the stardust coil, I think the little metal cones that stick up prevent a lot of flooding.
It's tight. But it works amazing!!!! I could not believe the flavor off this even from the first pull!!! I don't know if it's the single thick wick vs the 3 or 4 smaller frayed ones, or if it's the cone stopper part up top, or if it's both, or neither, but this is amazing!!!
I've been vaping on it since last night, so harm no foul yet. I'm watching for leaks, as it is such a close fit, and for signs the battery might be heating up, but so far, besides major improved flavor, no bad side effects at all.
I'm going to try this in my other Nova next! The only thing I may change is I may sand the very top of the metal on the coil itself down just a hair, just a tiny bit, and give it fractions of a inch more wiggle room.
Anyone else done this?
Can anyone think of any bad things I should be watching out for? Or anything bad that could happen that I haven't considered?
If these coils stay fresh and cleaner longer in my Mini Nova, I may just have to find a good home for my pile of Nova Coils and get another shipment of Stardust ones in!!!
When does this start SAVING me money again??????
