Hi all, I've tried searching a bit but have found nothing on this issue, I just got my apollo vtube in today which I do say looks nice and seems to work just fine, but with my vivi not so much :(

I screw on my vivi nova and (i already know about the tight or no air-draw but that's not my problem) when it is seated all the way it will not fire, at all.. From what I can gather it is the center hole on the vivi, it is too wide, so when I screw it on the vtube the center pin which is kinda small, seems like it goes right in the center of the vivi nova's air hole.. so I get no connection. I have tried my 510-510 extension and it still doesn't work, I've tried all of the other heads and they don't work.. Confirmed that they do work on my ego-t battery, anyone have a clue on what the fix could be? Is there a different vivi nova with a smaller air hole?

I am not opposed to getting a new vivi nova as long as it is for certain to work, along with my atomizer heads that I currently have

I got the apollo vtube and the vivi nova V2 about 2 days ago. Works awesome. Perhaps you got a defective vivi nova or vtube?
I wish I could help. Sounds like a product defect, though. Did you try anything else on the vtube? I have a 510-510 connector and put stardusts on the vtube and they vape fine as well.

Yea I tried my ego 2.5 ml tank and it works very nice, so I don't think its the vtube... but it's really bothersome, I know I have 30 day guarantee on the tube but the vivi is out of the 2day DOA warranty :( i just wish there was a better way to figure this out without having to wait.. should I contact apollo?

ok well I tried the vivi with the 510 extension on my ego-t and it still didn't work the extension was messed up :/ sucks cause its practically brand new... so i guess I might need a new extension... any recommendations on the smallest sleekest looking extensions that would look good with both items?

Sounds like ya got a blown coil on your Nova, take it apart and rebuild it with a new piece of kanthal wire if ya have some, or put a new head on it. Or just pull your nova head apart, pull out the center pin, and make sure your coil is ok/or popped, you may just have a bad connection, either way pull out the center pin on the head and check the coil wire, re-wrap it and put it back together like it came apart if you dont have a replacement head.
