If they are clear, how about line less ones purdy please.
So I finally just got around to trimming my wicks on my two Novas. Holy cow! So much better flavor and wicking with the short wicks! With the longer wicks I was having to invert the tank past horizontal, wait for all the bubbles (showing it's wicking) and then turn in back up right. I normally vape with my PV at an angle, so the short wicks (I trimmed them to original startdust style short) are perfect. No dry hits and no inverting!
I'm still rocking my original 2 1.8 ohm heads and they have each been through a few cleanings.

You trimmed short like the stardust or only half way up the wick?
Yes, short like stardusts ... Just touching the sides of the tank wall.
I just got my nova from CoV. The wicks are long and there is no vent holes on the bottom metal cap, not sure which version I have.
This thing is giving me no TH and very little vapor. Should I trim? What is my issue?

That's V2.5
It's not hitting at all. Like a mall ecig green smoke e9 model. I trimmed the 2.4 wicks and still nothing. Just filled it again with 2.8 and it's even worse. Wtf is going on here?? I was so excited to get this too /cry
I have not tried the V2.5 yet because I had good luck with the V1. You may just need to give the coils time to break in or adjust voltage or wattage. Most of the new Vision coils do have a break in period from what I've experienced and have read here. Hope this helps and you find a fix.
Make certain your batteries are fully charged, that your 510 connector is clean so it has good contact, also check the body threads of your PV itself to ensure they are clean.
On mod's without regulation or variable voltage/wattage... using the 1.8 ohm will give you more vapor than the 2.8 ohm one will... again, fully charged batteries make a ton of difference on these types of PV's.
It's already been shown over and over again that the Vivi's work very well... so check out all of the other areas I mentioned. I'd suggest to not use these ( or any low resistance vaporiser ) on a mini-cig type of battery since it may lead to the battery not living very long... eGo style batteries and larger should be just fine.
Not sure COV has V2.5. V2 and V2.5 are Very very similar.....GV tweaked a bit more and got the 2.5.
Wish i could help a bit with your issue, but my only thought is to check your connections.....make sure the heads are making a strong contact with the post, and that the connection between the tank and the batt are good as well. The heads seem to have a mind of their own at times and just don't stay screwed down tight
Not sure what you are using this on, but the posts may need some adjustment between the batt and the tank as well.
I use the 1.8ohm head with my stock voltage 3.7v to 4.2v PV. I also trimmed the wicks down to where they were barely touching the sides of the tank. Works great. I got practically nothing from the 2.4ohm nor the 2.8 heads.

thank you all for your posts.
I just got my new silver bullet two days ago so i know its clean and i put a new charged 18650 in it this morning. I do not have an extension or a kick. Everything else i put on it works great. I also have 4 ego 1100mah batts and they all were charged and clean as i cleaned and charged them before i got the SB and then put them in my stash. But even those produced the exact same result in taste and VP. The 1.8 coil head gave me better vapor and a slight TH, but the taste was terrible. It still did not output the vapor that my 3.0ohm stone tank puts out or my CE5 tanks from Cropduster901. The taste was bad too. not only muted but kind of funky. i tried leaving it sit for a bit to let the juice steep inside the tank and on the wicks, but it did not change anything.
i tried trimming the wicks on the 2.4 and it did not change anything. I bought the nova from everyones rave review about it. but to be honest, the Stone tank i have works a heck of a lot better, its just not as warm as a 1.5-2.4 coil. I have a DCC that i was using to try some new PS vapors juice and it was great, but the poly fill carts are just not for me. they alter the juice taste IMO.
I love the CE2/3/4/5 style tankomizer/clearomizers. They preform, taste and are easy to clean/rebuild....thats why i choose the nova....very bummed

the more i read this thread the more i think i may be doing something wrong here. how can so many users, that i trust my vamping needs to, have good luck with the nova and i do not. i just don't understand it.
on my SB i wish the 1.8 was not so crappy tasting. do i need to tape an entire tank on it to help break it in??

I have 5 modded stone tanks and they all rock after the mod...The novas are better than the stones. I have posted rave reviews about the novas. I also rebuild the heads myself. In the last 24 hrs since I posted my 1 week reviews of the novas I've had 2 heads (stock) just stop working on me. I open them up and the wire has come apart. there is 2 diff types of wire welded together. They are almost as thin as a human hair. If you put just a little bit too much wattage to the coil, POP, their done. Now thats a total fail situation, not what your experiencing. With anything mass produced your going to have some duds.
I know this post wasn't any help to you I just wanted to revise my review. Oh and mention the stone thing.
One... I'd suggest you only use juices you've already steeped and have used and liked before you try them into a new vaporiser... otherwise there are too many other possible causes of a bad taste and you can't isolate the real cause as easily.
The Vivi Nova's may be a little muted at first before it's broken in... but that shouldn't make a good juice taste bad but you said you were steeping that juice... so I'm not sure it is a valid or fair test.
Mine was good when I got it... it got slightly better as the coils and wick broke in... and was fine after that. I think Briar described the flavor profile best... the higher note flavors are accented with the lower notes being muted some. The flavors really popped out after I trimmed the wicks.
As with the Stone... keep it tilted to help keep the wicks wet.
may be dumb question...don't have time to read all the posts....but did you try taking it all apart, giving it a good clean and trying again?

i normally buy juice before what i am currently using runs out, so the new juice does have plenty of time to steep. i normally buy R2V juice, so i don't normally steep. When i said steep i meant leave the juice in the fresh VN tank and let it absorb into the wicks for a bit.
I just trimmed the 1.8 wicks and letting it sit for a while. i hope the break in period is not 3-4 tanks....
Yeah i just tried that. i took it all apart, tossed the 2.4 and 2.8, put the 1.8 in, filled it and i am letting it sit for some time to see if that helps. its weird because the juice i am using in it, is a good all around juice for any device or setup that i have put it in. Sure each setup can alter the flavor a bit, some mute, some enhance....but the taste i was getting was that of a dry hit almost plasticy/metalic.
The break in time I had on my Vivi Nova was less than I had on the Stone v3 which took about a tank and a half or so... and the VN is less prone to leaking ( which my Stone does ) and had much easier change out on the head/coils ( slightly )
May be the problem is in the resistance of the heads. On my ProVari the 2.8 ohm head was 3.2 and dropped to 3.0. My 2.4 ohm head was 3.4 ohm at first and has settled down to 3.0 ohm. On a small battery I'm sure this would need a nice long slow pull to get any real production. I have no clue why the ratings are so far off, but they are. May be this is the problem you are having?
