Vivi Nova vs. Protank

[dmj4]

I have to vote for vivi. I ave used it exclusively for 6 months or so. I got a protank a couple of weeks ago and it floods ALL the time. I like the airy draw on a new vivi head, so i loved the provape airy draw. I just can't stand the grgling and spitting juice in my mouth.

I am open to suggestions on how to correct the flooding of the protank if antbody has any.

I have noticed with the Vivi that the 2.8 ohm heads work great and the others not so much. I get burnt taste from the others, but do love the 2.8's.

I've been rebuilding my heads for both my protank and Nova, I notice that the protank coils gunk up much less than the Nova, probably because the protank heads are always submerged in e-juice. Not to mention, I like the way the protank hits and looks much better. My vote is hands down for the protank

on my evic vivi novas draw tons better and looks alot better also being able to customize drip tips makes it so i dont have the metallic taste in my vape but pyrex is really awesome too!

Vivi nova , no question. Protank has too many issues, the worst of which is the draw which give no resistance to pull a decent hit and the metallic taste that overpowers the juice. Theres 6 or 7 other problems with it but those are the deal breakers. Vivi novas Ive gotten dont have any of the protanks issues Id never buy another protank. And theyre three times as much.

Vivi is good, I agree!

Personally I have both and have tried both extensively - The ProTank wins hands down for me. I have Vivi's that have been used and Vivi's that are still boxed and will never be unboxed. The juice tends to get very dark and thick in the Vivi's and for me I don't like pouring juice down the drain - in the ProTank I can vape down to where I can't even see juice in the tank and it doesn't turn dark and thick.

My personal opinion - but my vote goes to the ProTank.

Same here. My juice gets really dark, really quick with my vivi nova. My 1st protank should be here Friday. Will reconoiter and report.

Aww. Love the pic! I have a bichon and black toy poodle. Here's my bichon, Sassy, on my recliner. My toy poodle is laying on the couch. Lol. And THANK YOU so much for defending our country! Hugz!

Edit.. The pic came out sideways. Sorry. Lol. Not sure why.

Independent black poodle, Shady, usually is upstairs sleeping in the bed in the guest room or on the couch. Lol.

Up for Protank, produces great vapor though the airy draw doesn't bother me anymore, easy to vape unlike the VV, tried VV it has tight draw to actually get a good continuous vape. VV also gurgles if not properly handled and taken care of. No more purchasing VV for me!

All this talk about the BCC tanks having a cool vape scared me off from trying them for far too long. They do not have a cool vape. Tanks with top coils have an abnormally warm vape. BCC tanks have normal warmth comparable to cartomizers and atomizers. I think people got used to the very warm vape of top coil tanks so anything else seems cool to them. I've used a clearomizer with a cool vape -- it was disgusting. The vape from a BCC tank is noticeably warmer than room temperature. It is also noticeably warmer than the temperature of your mouth.

I think they're both about the same re performance. That said, Vivi Nova's better since the tank is not glass (and thus less prone to breakage); Protank 2 (with pyrex [glass] tank) is better for juices that degrade plastic (or "polycarbonate"). Pyrex Vivi Novas are available but I don't recommend (I've tried several) -- lots of leakage problems and they're big and bulky and it's difficult to observe the juice content, since they're shrouded in metal with peepholes (unlike the Protanks). Prefer the draw of the Vivi Nova.

I just moved up to an eVic from an ego-style battery and I've been looking into tanks. My kit came with a Vivi Nova but, like others have mentioned, the draw is just super tight. The airflow is just not what I prefer.

I'll be trying the Protank 2 next, since it sounds more along the lines of what I like. I don't mind the slightly "cooler" vape associated with a bottom coil design. In fact, I may even like it more.

 

[MiamiGuy]

Try it then. Bottom-coil tank is fine but gurgles more and takes longer to get the flow going.

 

[MiamiGuy]

My experience has been that the Vivi Novas are better (but not the Vivi Nova Pyrex tanks).

I have the regular Vivi Nova, the pyrex Vivi Nova, the Protank 1, and the Protank 2. Both Novas perform similar and both Protanks perform similar (sliiightly less airy draw on the PT2, but that's about it). I can say with absolute certainty that the stock Nova heads actually work, while the stock Protank heads will (more times than not) drive you insane. Even if you rebuild the heads for the Protank, it's astounding how one is amazing and the next, seemingly identical, is just plain bad.

I vote the Nova. It's my tank of choice these days.
