Glad to hear that the Vivi Nova is working well for you. Seems to be one of the hottest new clear's available. I'm about three weeks into them. Have noticed a good bit of variation in the draw - from fairly tight, to almost perfect for me (a little more airy). For the ones with a tight draw, I just don't screw them down too tightly, and this helps a little. Draw can also be affected by the PV you are using. I've heard that some of the gig battery flat top tube mods can restrict airflow if the tank sits too flush with the top of the mod. In these cases some have found that using a 510-510 extender can help.

Has anyone noticed any problems with the threading? The top thread is off a little on mine, and although it doesn't leak, it doesn't sit flush when fully tightened. Also the diameter of the bottom that screws on to the battery is a little smaller than the threading on my kgo battery so it wobbles a little when tightening it and I have to keep it aligned.

i am using the vivi on a kgo. i like it a lot. but it does not look good. i need someone to point me EXACTLY to a sleeve or cone or whatever it is called to make it look good again. also ,one that does not impede the performance. i have seen a lot of links, but when i get there , it does not say it is for the vivi and kgo. tired of buying stuff that is wrong when i get it.....thanks......vince

Meh... Not to impressed with them myself.

I ordered 2 of them and both have cracked tanks where the threading is. On one the cracked piece actually fell out while I was vaping it. Wasn't to happy with all that liquid all over the place. Then I looked at the other one more closely and noticed it too has the same cracks along the top threads, just not as badly. I think I'll stick to the new vision stardusts with replacable parts. Got them from another vender the same day. Of course 2 of 7 were shattered in shipping but at least they have metal to metal threading instead of threading going into a plastic tank. Seems like a little flaw in the design to me.

On a side note... still vaping the second one that's just cracked and hasn't fallen apart yet. Just not as much as the vision stardusts. I'm sure screwing off the top to refill it will make the cracks bigger if not just from being used so it's days are already numbered. Was kind of a waste of $40 for me. :-(

I just got mine 2 days ago and it just started opening up and showing its true colors. It makes monster clouds but like i have read in other threads i cant pick up alot of flavor even with double shot liquids. But other than that i am extremely impressed with it i love the tank on it, it feels very solid and all the seals seem to be very well placed. I dont really have a problem with it threading in and seating well the only thing is that i dont screw it in all the way just enough to not wobble. I have had problems before screwing carto's in too far and then everytime i changed carto i had to pry the pos battery post so that it would contact the carto. I am using on an ego 650 and works extremely well, planning on getting an ego twist excited to see how it performs on that. I have even used it on a standard 510 battery, works great on it too!

Just want to chime in. I've been using the Vivi novas for a couple days now. Holy crap! After trying every possible liquid delivery method (with a couple very expensive exceptions) I'm extremely happy with the Vivi Nova.

What I don't understand is why they hit so much better than the stardust. It seems like a pretty similar design, at least functionally speaking.
