Georgia Elwiss top-scored with 37 to take Lightning up to 135-5 from their 20 overs but after Danni Wyatt's quickfire 40, the Vipers looked well on track for victory.
However, they slipped from 80-2 to 129-8, three run outs doing little to help their cause, before Amanda-Jane Wellington and Carla Rudd got them over the line with three balls to spare, maintaining the Vipers' 100 per cent start to the tournament.
