Vision V3

[Bluefish]

Anybody having problems with these? cos i just got two of them and they leak and gurgle like mad, when i say leak, i presume they are getting too much juice and it's going down the center and on to the center post, have wasted loads of juice using these, and i am wondering if cutting the wicks a bit will improve things? now i have been using these with an LT and turning up the heat just makes it burnt, so today i opened up a new boge, not used one in ages and it was loads better, and i'm not a big fan of them, I just want something that bloody works

I don't get on with Vision's at all Blue, so can't advise you sorry.

The Vivi Nova is streets ahead for me . . . and you can recoil them.

Check your screwing in the mouthpiece in enough, this seals the tank at the top and keeps the wicks tight in the groove stopping leaks down the centre tube.

I've had loads of these and find them great.

I like the Nova as well, i broke mine though when isat down on the ferry over to france, was in my back pocket, and it's gone a bit wonky, and don't work too well now lol

This is a possible des, i am wary of tightening the top too much and causing poor wicking, and i did notice on occasion, when taking a pull on it that there would be steam inside the vision, and so i would tighten the top up a bit, maybe i'm just being a girl and it needs abit of a Man tighten, cheers Des i will give it another go after i've had my Weetabix

Take the silicone cap off..Cut a 1 cm piece of 1mm wick and slide it down the slot till it rests on top of the coil and put the silicone cap back on..

See how it vapes after that..

Iv found if you fill them around 2 thirds you dont get the gurgle, there generally a pain in the arse though, doesnt matter what i do with them i still get residue on my posts, vivi nova`s are better all round IMO.

[Bluefish]

just tried it again with the lid done up tight and no joy, pants vape and still leaks, not using them again, or wasting anymore juice on them V3= fail

My V3 is sitting on the window seal after only using it for maybe one fill of e liquid from brand new. It's doesn't vape nicely. I still can't figure out why some you cleoros you buy can give you a really good experience and some just make you feel like "what the heck am I doing vaping " lol

The vivi nova is that similar to the Tanks?

[Dream (s)]

I ment Tanko's?

[OneDay]

Dream a vivi nova is a similar concept to the vision 3 - a rebuildable/rewickable clear tank. It just works so much better somehow

[Dream (s)]

hmmmmm I'm tempted to buy one

I've used the Tanko, which I really like, but found it was a bit too airy to vape on for me, but really like the size shape and style.

Being an avid - daily V3r user, yes I admit they do have their problems, but easily over come.

Overfilling will cause gurgle, vape long, vape hard, it soon goes away.

Double check the silicon cap, after prolonged usage, they don't seal as well, rinse well, pop in freezer, - you won't have that problem for at least a week.

Alignment - The threaded drip tip needs to sit square ( okay, I know both are round, but you know what I mean), and tight, the one I'm using as I type is one I have that does have alignment issues, it is a case of double checking and making sure the seal is there and working.

Topping up, fill at angle, but not at wick, as the wick will allow some juice into the centre - and we're back to gurgle again.

Re-wick - after my free sample from health-e-vape of wick and wire, I spent a few mins making one up, as one of my heads had really caked, and no dry burn was ever going to sort it, so having the wick & wire I thought what the hay, best vape out of a V3 yet! Doubled the wick, measures in at 2.2Ohms, the wick isn't as long as the long wicks you purchase, but they're not short, they're sort of 3/4 length

The V3's can be a pain, but technique can sort it, I also have mine live with my mobile in my pocket, and again no leak issues since the very start of vaping. Tell a lie, had a new V2 non re-buildable that had structural failure the other day was a bit annoyed, is only the second item I've had die on me in the 6 weeks I've been vaping.

Remember, if you have a problem - dismantle, rinse, dry burn, assemble, fill, blow, vape - I only give mine a quick blast now with a hot-gun to dry them, and make sure I drip the wick before a main fill.

Hope that helps.

I've been using rebuildable clearos and a vivi lately without any trouble.

vivi was leaking all the time, so i replaced the head with a vision v3 head, and it works like a charm!
