I have a vivi nova V2 from another provider. No muted taste. The 2.4 Ohm rated has 2.5 Ohm, so thats OK. Amazing flavor right out the box. Much vapor, flash don´t know, using 40/60 VG/PG liquid with 0.6 nico. The best clearo tank I ever had right out of the box, no fiddling, easy to handle, big enough tank, cheap spares. If the V2.5 is still better....People, get some of these, they are great.

I'm getting a slight muted flavor in my v2. I think I'll try the heads GV sells when they get them, because they say they got the final revision and the vision site did change the picture of the heads where the silicone comes up around the top of them. So I got either 1.9 or GV will have 2.5?? Who knows... but they should be different.

Just thinking out loud here....people stated on some of the v1 heads that more than just the coil was heating up and this was effecting taste. If the final revision of v2 fixed this, then there would be no need to have the completely open silicone cap and they could narrow it more again. Maybe the final revision of the v2 heads fixed this and they could narrow the silicone cap on them. So maybe the final revision v2 also has an improvement in side posts in the head not heating up? Anyone take apart an early v2 head and see if it had that same issue of the side post heating up? Was it already fixed in an early v2 head?

I wonder if the muted flavor is do to one of these?

1. The need for break in time.

2. The need to soak / wash the head right out of the package.

3. The heating coil in contact with the seal.

Anyone able to try a new head and re-wire using NR for the legs and soak / wash before 1st use.

Possibly I haven't broke it in enough yet... only probably vaped 3mls through it so far... but I've noticed no improvement over that 3 ml. I did do a good hot water rinse over the whole thing before I started. I'm not having any burnt taste on this 2.4ohm but did notice a burnt on my 1.8 ohm occasionally. I could try a couple of more heads because I got 12 v2 heads total :oops: But I think it'll be easier to just try the final revision because I didn't notice a flavor difference in the 2 I tried. I'm going to have to get better glasses before I try to rewick and coil.

What battery mod are you using? And if it vari volts, what setting for each head.

Well, I got the V2 - only because I wanted a comparison of long wicks with short wicks, and, well, I was curious about how different various versions are... It works great, to be honest. No funny taste, flavor intensity is almost comparable to the Stardust, and so is flavor profile - this is what I expected from the V1, and I'm certainly not disappointed in the V2. And *amazing* amount of vapor. The draw is really nice, not too tight not too loose, very smooth.

And, btw, didn't wash it or dry burn it or anything. Just filled right out of the box.

I can't wait for V2.5 - will get several of them for sure. If V2.5 is even an iota better than V2, my addiction to Stardusts is in grave danger. LOL

I know Badkolo mentioned it as version 2.5, but it is actually revision 2.5. I am sure they will still need about a half a tank to break in, but some of the new changes are going to be great! I am holding off on getting any more, until GV gets rev 2.5 in.

I was going to review the rev 2, but did the live broadcast instead (it is recorded though). I am going to do another one when rev 2.5 comes out, and probably a new review.

This Sunday's show, I am going to go over recoiling the rev 2 head, on my show. :)

I also do a live broadcast, Sundays from 6PM - 8PM Eastern. It is on TotalVapingNetwork.com. The live show is called "LordDavon Presents: LIVE". I use it as a little follow up to the reviews. Kind of a Questions and Answers, for after the reviews, since people can chat with me during the show. It is still new, and I am working out the kinks, but last week was a great show. :)

I am hoping to have Chris and/or Dan on there one of these days. Chris has been very supportive with the show, and has offered giveaway items, which is great!

I just got mine today ( from a mysterious vendor that I can't remember the name so I can't say here :unsure: yup, dat excuse sounds good dere :laugh:) cuz I wanted another vivi badly and Bad/Danno's ain't here yets.
It's great ! Now I REALLY REALLY can't wait for Bad/Danno's version to try :laugh::laugh:
I didn't do anything, just right out of the box used it. Loads better then the tastes from the first vape of the other one. No burnt craps. Although I do like the long wicks vs the short ones :) that could very well be all in my head tho :laugh:

Curiousity gets the best of some of us, I suppose. LOL Not that GV is in danger of losing any business - we all going to jump on GV version as soon as it shows up, I'm sure.

On the negative side, I vaped so much yesterday, that my taste buds went south. Can't taste much of anything. My favorite fruit/coconut/cream concoction just tastes like burnt coconut... :(

Revision 2 is really good. Once revision 2.5 gets here, the Vivi Nova could be one of the best tanks. I really love rev 2, so 2.5 has to be at least 50% better... right. ;)
