1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.

    Well I am guessing it is a copy/knock off anyway.
    It was $6 so I knew it was going to be a knock off but I was interested in actually seeing one.

    It took 2 weeks to arrive via the slow Chinese shipping, even though it had been shipped 'Swiss Airmail'

    Anyway, very low quality, the heads are very different, they have a pointed bit of metal sticking out of the top of the silicone top.
    They have the air vent holes in the right place though.
    The materiel it's made from is not great quality, same with the actual metal parts
    I've not tested/vaped with it yet, I think I will wait for a rainy day before I do so as I already have 3 original Vivis on the go at the moment anyway.

    Has anyone ever used a knock off Vivi Nova before?

    Also noticed that the drip tip is not a shiny smooth finish like the real ones, you know, when you run your lips on the new drip tip is's smooth and shiny.
    This one is not.

    A few pics

    I just a drop of rain..lol..
    So I just filled it up.

    If it is a knock off, it vapes no different than the original Vivi Novas I have, it actually tastes really good.
    How it copes with everyday vaping I will find that part out next.

    So far, for $6, it's a cheaper look, but the first vape is great so far:vaping::vaping::very good:

    $6 is a good price for buying for own use.

    There is no different with copy / origin version, just the driptip, you can change the plastic one with stainless drip tip.
    the material are all from the same factories.
