I started vaping about 3 weeks ago and I've been off cigarettes for over 3 days now. It's been the easiest go I've ever had at quitting. I'm excited about that, but I am having some problems. I'm wondering if I'm just doing some fundamental things wrong. So I started out with 2 mini Vivi Nova's with e go c batteries. They leaked like crazy at first. I cleaned and made sure everything was firmly connected. It was better, though, still had some leaking problems. So I got a kanger evod- I like it much better ZERO leaking and just everything about it I like. So I decided to order another one.

My 2nd one arrived this morning and had a small crack in it towards the top. I am not the type to really care about this sort of thing and you could hardly tell so I filled it up with honeysuckle nectar from ec blends and puffed away. Best flavor yet for me, however, about 2 hours later I go to pick up the tank and it falls apart. So needless to say I was super bummed and I emailed the company I ordered from. He agreed to replace it if I sent him a picture and asked what type of liquid I was using. I told him and sent him the picture. He advised me that he'd had several reports over the last month of people having problems with tanks and ec blends liquids. He said he wasn't sure it was related, but it was a weird coincidence. He said the type I was using was not on the list to avoid with plastic tanks, but that perhaps I should be wary. I was very grateful for the prompt and helpful response. I shrugged it off because it was a brand new tank that had already had a crack in it when it arrived.

SO FINALLY. This afternoon at Petsmart I had my Vivi nova with E go c battery in hand. I had also noticed a small crack in this tank while driving over to Petsmart. The entire thing basically shatters in my hand with liquid all over me. I had previously used bahama mama ec blends liquid in this tank ( I think- I have 2 vivi novas that are exactly the same). And I had also filled it with the honeysuckle nectar and that's the only thing I could think of that would have caused that. I was frustrated as I am now down to one vivi nova and one kanger evod. As I just quit traditional cigarettes it's a little stressful to have them breaking. I'm worried about my last two failing as well. I was hoping someone may have some insight into this. I'm sorry for the long post and if I missed any details please let me know! Thanks!

Go to Valley Vapes,get the 7.99 tank,hell get 2-3 get 5 boxes of the SR or LR cartos and you will not have a problem. Watch the video on Vape dudes,they sell the same tank,same price,as he makes them. Vape Dudes call them TEXAS TUFF and that they are. I burn citrus,licorice,red hots,and these handle it. A little more work,but you will be pleased. You will get a bum carto every blue moon,but that is just vaping. I went from the ego to the Vamo. Happy vape trails:vapor:

You are having BAD luck and NO neither of those Flavors should have anything to do with the issues of Cracking.
Inspect you other 2 tanks well before using. Any defects - send them back.
Also remember vivi tank plastics are a bit fragile. Be vigilant in using. There are also a dozen different makers of vivi tanks so no telling what you actually have.

Evods are nice and even the one clone has been reported as good to go by most users. Avoid Tank cracker juices.
