vivi nova modders

The problem I am having is that when I have the rubber seal cylinder on, twist cap back on, it draws but I only get a tiny vapor, I would have very strong raw flavor. So i took the rubber cylinder off, twist cap back on, whoa huge vapor, flavor is perfect ratio.

Try cutting some V in your rubber seal cylinder to correspond with the wick so it doesn't pinch the wick when pushed on all the way to see if that helps. Cuticle scissors work well for this minor task.

Something I have noticed, the higher gauge resistance wire doesn't burn the grommet as easly (using 33). Using cotton also made it less of a threat because of more consistent juice flow to the coil. Twisting the legs is more of a precaution for me now.

is the khantal need to be burn/oxidized ?
if i use a lighter to burn it, is it okay?

I always run my Kanthal wire through a Bic lighter flame before making it into a coil. Not to oxidize it, but to burn off any impurities left over from manufacture, like machine oils and such. It also takes some of the spring out, makes it easier to wind the coil.

I have been using Kanthal A-1 Wire, 32 Gauge .0080 Resistance and cotton for a month or so and have had no issues with burning the grommet. putting 5 wraps and it Vape's like a freight Train and great flavor no burning.
Im using a SB 3.7V 2600mAh and Vivi nova.

0.0080 resistance? 32 awg kanthal is 13.81 ohms per foot, 1.15ohms per inch. Are you using a different setting on your multimeter?
