vivi nova mini clearomizer vs. atomizer

[jeffd]

I tried a 2.0 mini viva a friend gave me new and though it was a POS. I couldn't get it to perform consistently well with way too many dry hits. I was as the point of tossing it out actually. One day I drained the juice out (first and only fill at the time) and cleaned it out. took the inner rubber silicone cap off the coil head, dry burned the coil, trimmed the wicks a little shorter, notched the silicone cap where the wicks touch it and refilled. omg. I could not believe it. been using it daily, 3-4 fills now and not one single dry hit. not one. glad I didn't pitch it or stomp it. I love it and want more . work with it. cheers
