Hi Nursery Girl !

It's totally legal to vape anywhere and everywhere,

however ....

If you do not want the attention, you can 'stealth vape'

Just hold the vape in for 10 seconds or so - it will cool down to ambient temperature.

When you exhale there will be no vapour, as it will be at ambient temp.

In neither stealth or normal manner would it trigger smoke / fire alarms on planes hotels.

I have not got an Evod (in fact I don't even know what one is), but my attempts with re-coiling vivi nova heads were very much the same as your own.

This time I didn't even try it, just shelled out for another box of ready made heads.

I think it's ok if I cross post my own posting from ECF about this ?

Please remove if not.

Fixing a broken 510 connector (with Pics)

Bit of a blow Grant's mixing machine blowing up. I have some spare, however it is 22mg Nicotine, and 50/50 VG PG so may not be of use.

With the rebuild-able clearo leaking / not vaping much. Take it apart, and take the bit of rubber of the head (bit with the two wicks sticking out).

The head needs to be tightened down nicely (I use a pair of pliers, but don't use much force).

The breaking from overtightening happens from overtightening the clearo to the battery.

Just put in my third order of Cappella's from Frogster (Alchemsists Cupboard).

Shockingly this means I have now ordered 90ml of CVC, and gone through about 150ml of PVC since this thread started

I am pretty certain I have vaped nothing put Vanilla Custard for at least 2 months now !!

Impossible *everyone* likes GVC !

I have had great success with Perpetua's Vanilla Custard recipe, but not everyone is into the MIY (Mix It Yourself) Thing

The atomiser is the thing at the top of your vivi nova that screws in and has two wicks hanging out of it. It heats the e-juice when a current is supplied to turn it into vapour you then inhale.

In the 'olden days' the atomiser screwed onto the battery, and a cartridge containing a filler (think cotton wool) soaked in e-juice slotted over the end. The filler contacted with the atomizer and juice gets gradually wicked up the filler as you use it.

This is pretty much(*) obsolete nowadays as the 'cartomiser' was introduced, which is just an atomiser and cartridge permanently connected together.

You're vivi nova is a Clearomiser (Clearo) which came later still. Because it's clear, you can tell how much juice you have left**. In addition, some people do not like the 'taste' of the filler material in cartos. The disadvantage's with clearo's are wicking issues and also leaking (through the mouthpiece, onto battery etc). Carto's don't leak, wick consistently and are not vulnerable to being oriented upside down / shaken.

* Atomisers are still used to 'drip' a couple of drops of ejuice on - mainly to sample new flavours, or by purists as this is the cleanest taste.

** In fact carto's can be modified so you can see the Juice level by using 'Tanks'. These are simple clear plastic tubes which go round the carto, which you then fill with juice - so they constantly refill the carto.

Ps, I use a Vivi Nova like yours, and I love it.
