I noticed the same thing with my iPro. Very sloppy when threading the vivi on. I didn't want to strip the head so I'm using a 510 to 510 adapter just in case.

That's something everyone should be aware of, that is if threads are becoming suspect on any of your vaping equipment using a 510 to 510 stubby adapter can protect the threads of you expensive equipment.

If you look at the video, you'll see that the original ViVi had two opposing holes in the metal base.

The newer version on the video shows NO holes in the base.

I do not know if you can just plug the holes, or if we will need to purchse an updater (Version X) ViVi.

Ok im getting excited for the new one to come to Gotvapes.
Yesterday i opened a old but new vision stone 3 and dripped some vg on it to help season its coil then filled and vaped.
Thing i always liked about this tank was the flavor it offered to my e-liquid .

So im anxious to see how the revised Nova does. - keeping fingers crossed. ; )

I don't know if you're still taking suggestions, but I guess they are more constructive than just listing negatives.
1. First and most important one - resistance wire is burning silicone/rubber isolation on the inner connector. Its not just messing with the taste, its also seriously unhealthy. After so many complaints on the same thing, I figured it's gonna be addressed by now. You cannot really rely on juice draining on the connector to cool those.
2. Well, I don't want to be boring... There are several little things that I'd like to see a bit different, some of which were said multiple times. But seriously, isolation mentioned in #1 has to be fixed. Either by non-resistance wire, or by using a different material. Its toxic, even if you're lucky enough not to taste it.

Love the form factor, and would love to see this made right.

Btw, that scale again... ewwww.

Do you know if this also true of the latest Stardusts?

While Stardusts use similar/same system, I rarely saw a glowing wire on them. Silicone isolation on those is pretty much always wet. While it should also be addressed (as I think everyone will find at least some burns on the silicone if they open their unit), I didn't find it as much of an issue as here.

I agree. While we were gathering info on this initially, I dry burned every single one of my Stardusts (21) and I think I saw the "stand" wires lighting up noticeably on two, I think... Of course there is a caveat: in a Stardust, they are harder to see, and my eyesight ain't what it used to be close-up. And I need new glasses. (Note to self: get a magnifying glass) LOL And never as bright as the ViVi, and never without the coil. Plus, isn't the gasket made of different material? I'm not sure, but I think someone mentioned that much earlier in this thread.
