Hello All

So I like my glass tanks with carto's. But I'm getting tired of these poopy carto's. I really wish I could find some kind of clearo to put in my glass tanks to use. So if any of you can invent one please do and will you please let me be the first to know about it Thank you. Also if you know a good carto please let me know cause the boge gate is true. So let me know what you use and if you want to put the set up that you use down go ahead. I just thought this might be fun for everyone to see different ways to vape the awesum juice. So fire away!! VAPE HARDY!!!! :vapor::vapor:

I spent the last week on and off trying to master tanks 'n cartos, but after the 1st day of using them I just couldn't get them to work again without gurgling and then going dead, no matter how carefully I filled the cartos - I'm pretty much an idiot when it comes to that sort of technical stuff I think! :) My poor PV gave up and played possum for a day, but it's back to working again thank goodness. I just loaded up a Vivi Nova for the first time and that is like the perfect system for me. It's so easy! Initially I thought the juice wasn't very good in it, but after vaping for a bit, it's getting better and better.

I love the idea of tanks, and they're so individual and creative, but between having to deal with cartos, and replacing o-rings in case they were the issue, and then trying to screw it on and off the battery without sliding it too far up or down the carto ... they were just a total fail for me,, unfortunately. The Vivi seems more like my kinda system - fill-it-and-forget-it :)

I primarily use and like my Phiniac tanks (with prepunched, flanged Smoketek cartos) on my Provari. But, I am also enjoying the Vivi Novas. I have also tried the Type B Ego Mega tanks on my KGO and to my delight, they are very good! I am also waiting for someone to invent a glass tank with the innards of a Vivi Nova.

Well, I'll start by saying I'm pretty head over heels for my ViVi Nova with a pink pearl Twist battery right now! :D

I'm glad to see you use a viva nova because I plan to get a mini viva nova and order some of you VG juice. Will the undulated Juice do well in the mini nova? Is ther a particular ohm that works best?

Hi Colubrid!

The Absolute line may need a little thinning, since the flavoring is so concentrated it doesn't dilute the VG much. A 50/50 blend would work well, or if you want 100% VG, you can ask Annette in the comments of your order to thin any Absolute flavors a bit for use in a mini VN. The ohms will depend on you and the particular flavor you're using, but it seems the most popular choice is around 2.4 ohms. I hope that helps! :)

I bought a couple of atomizers for dripping to test flavors, and clearly I am a klutz and it just wasn't working out for me. So, I found some shorty, clear cartos to try and I love love love them! They're a bit flimsy and don't last as long as regular cartos but boy do I love the flavor I get from my juices in them! Maybe because they're so small, next best thing to dripping! Oh Anneeeeeeeeeeette...something to add to our inventory. :)

I revisited my atty last night...was vaping away thinking hmm..pretty good ..and then..BLEH burnt, horrible yuck! I couldn't get it to taste good again so that was that. I don't want to waste anymore juice in it. Too precious!!

I'm hoping to p/u the coil and wicks that water4 suggested this weekend and will try to rewick the vivi nova. Then I'll just need a mini nova. Hint hint Annette...?
I've seen some new designs coming out for cartos that don't use the traditional filling. One is half filling half empty, another uses some thin material to get the juice to the wick..so it's seems that soon we will have even more things to try out!:)

I have graduated to genesis type attys. juices that were good in my carto tanks and vivi novas are too potent now. One of the flavors that i do like but in small doses is my mint chocolate chip. In the vivi nova I could taste mint but no chocolate. With my genesis attys I taste more chocolate and the mint is much more balanced.

The best so far has been the Dual Coil, 3.5 ml clear cartos for the Go-go and the Smok tek resurrectors, also clear. Why the clear? Because I have a specific juice saturation I like for cartomizers. The clear lets me see that. I have a Vision Vivi Nova version 2.5 and the draw was too tight and the wicks a tad restricted, so like other Visions of the past, I modded it and it works pretty good now. Lately I have just been going back and forth between the cartos I mentioned above and the Smok-tek DC tanks with low resistance prepunched cartos with two holes. Two holes is perfect for the "Virgin Vapor Line" of juices, at least with the Bella Amaretto and the KCM. 3 holes was on the verge of flooding.

So far, my favorite device is a single voltage, 1300 mah Go-go kit which is an oddball EGO type with a potent battery. Just ordered a KGO from Virgin Vapor. I also own a Lavatube, a Provari, a 650mah EGO and a Volt kit. I rarely use the variable voltage mods unless I happen to forget to charge my favorites.

Here's my Go-go with the DC tank and a cone I made out of a defunct battery and the thread insert from a regular Go-go cone.

Here's what it would look like without the sleeve.

Being that, through much trial and error, that I have rested upon the fact that I am a carto or carto/tank guy, along with the fact that I have been vaping VV juices exclusively for the better part of a year by now, and that I like larger battery capacity in which to vape them with, there is a couple other things I have discovered along the way, personally speaking of course. I also like straight battery mods. In other words, I have come back to the EGO types after fooling with variable voltage devices. The only reason I really had the vari-volts in the first place was for larger batteries and being able to hover around the 3.7v area longer. With that said, I have accumulated a few 18650 batteries, some that have never been fired.

The KGO's I got from Annette are on their initial 8 hr program charge. So I borrowed a big bore cone from the KGO and it happens to fit this. A Joytech 18650/EGO t. Shown below with a clear, Smoktech ressurector carto. The great thing about these is you can use them in regulated mode like a regular EGO at around 3.3v or straight off the battery. Guess which mode I am on, getting the best out of 100% VG. :D

I like the idea of an ego with a replaceable, 2200mah battery.
