Vivi Nova, cleaned, and filled. Won't fire.

[RadarLuv1]

I thought I dried out all of my parts thoroughly. Pretty positive everything was good, so I reassembled and filled with juice. WILL not fire. So now my mini is just sitting there and I am using my standard Ego c tank.

I noticed that the little metal piece that comes off in the rubber tip that goes over the wick doesn't seem to sit super flush no matter how much I push down on the rubber tip.

Do I need to disassemble? If so how do I get the juice out of there without wasting it. I don't have a syringe.

I am a noob, so sorry If this all sounds stupid, or if I made a stupid mistake.

TIA

anyone at least know how to get the juice out after I just filled it?

Sounds like a knockoff. Vision brand is the genuine Vivi.

Try GENTLY pulling the center metal tube on the BATTERY end of the Vivi out about 1/32". It may not be making contact with the battery cuz it got pushed up.
When cleaning did you touch/ move the coil at all?

Try tiping it slightly and stick the nozzle of your juice bottle in it and suck it out.

It looks like the real deal. Looks nothing like the fake, I have seen those on you tube. I did message V Kings and they said they are real although they didn't come in a box. Everyone seems to rave about their products and reputation. When you take the little rubber cap off there is a small netal part that comes of in the rubber cap. Does that make sense?

Just take the drip tip off of your juice bottle and the top of the Vivi Nova and pour it back in. You won't get it all but you will save most of it. And check to make sure that your coil didn't somehow get bumped and is touching the side of the metal body. It could be shorting.

make sure the head is tight on it .I have found sometimes the heads get loose or are not tight so its not connecting with the center post

Yes that is the Vision Mini- sorry. Try, as posted above, pulling the center pin out a touch GENTLY. May not be making contact with the battery.

the coil is slanted a little. I just took it apart and rewashed it. afraid to try to dry fire it. I am afraid I am not drying it completely or something, although I blew it out, used paper towels, etc...

Wooohoooo, I am back in business with the mini!

Thank you guys! I guess the connection was bad!

Yall rock!

Wow, BTW, there really is NO comparison in the mini vs. the ego tank! NOW, I REALLY appreciate the clearo.

Any recommendations on my 2nd clearo purchase? I like a nice looking device, so sleeve suggestion is appreciated, too.

The wick won't burn cuz it's silica. As for dry burning just short 3 sec activations. Washing cleans the wick, tank, etc and dry burning turns the gunked up juice on the coil to ash- wash afterwards.

Cool but give yourself a pat on the back for persevering

I've noticed after cleaning that I sometimes don't screw the head back on quite tight enough. You can just pull the silicon sleeve with washer off and use a screwdriver to gently tighten the head up a little then just replace the sleeve. As far as the sleeve not sliding down all the way, that's not such a bad thing. I actually pull mine up a little and it wicks better so I get fewer dry hits.
ETA-typo fixed

Yup...I was going to say the same thing as I have done this before as well.
