The Vivi's are some of the easiest one's to re-coil . If you can't do these , don't bother buying any re-buildables . A waste of your money . As said earlier , lots of video'a on Youtube . I watch one , and took all of 5 minutes or less to do one myself . Came out to 1.9 ohms , which is real close to one of the one's , that comes with it . Cost , maybe 10cents .

Been mucking about with wick and wire for a while now trying to re-do my stardust.

Between lots of practice and watching PBusardo do it once I was finally successful.

I wrapped .15mm kanthal 5/4 wraps on a 1.4mm. electronic precision screwdriver and pulled the stands of silica through it after winding it....3.1ohm perfection.

I've been using cotton wicking but decided to try it with the silica as it's more forgiving and
less likely to burn than the cotton.
The ohm meter I use didn't give me a good reading but when I popped it onto Mr. Provari
it ohm'd out at 3.1.

Dropped in some 9 day old DIY Peaches and Cream and 2 hours later(and half a tank) it's breaking in just fine.

Thanks to PBusardo and this post/thread.:vapor::vapor:
