Vivi Nova BDC Floods Below ~2 ml

[Nadia]

Hey y'all,

I recently got myself a Vivi Nova BDC clearo because I wanted a bigger tank and more consistent vapor as the tank empties. The problem is that for whatever reason, the head floods when I get below about 2 ml of liquid in the tank (about where the tube meets the head).

This seems strange to me because it doesn't flood before that point, and consistently after. I tried a different head and the results were the same. Is this a design flaw? Should I just keep it topped up? That seems to kinda defeat the purpose of a bigger tank...

Anyway, I'm curious to read what you guys think.

Cheers,
Nadia

Hi Nadia! I welcomed you on your introduction thread.

First, to fix a flooded atomizer take your tank off the battery and blow through the mouthpiece (with a paper towel under it). This will drain the extra eliquid.

When you inhale, take a long smooth draw vs a short sharp draw. This will prevent extra eliquid from being pulled into your coils and flooding it. Inhalation technique with an e-cigarette

Whenever you first sense that your atomizer is beginning to flood try this:
1. Open up the airflow so when you take a hit you are not pulling in as much juice into your coils (if your tank has airflow control) .
2. Raise your voltage or wattage if your battery allows you to do this. This will vaporize more eliquid.
3. Tip your battery up (and take a few hits). By tipping it up you will prevent more eliquid from being fed into the coils.

Give one or all of these a try.

Thanks, Susan! I'll keep these things in mind for the next time I get flooding.
