Still Cool To Not Sub-ohm?

Whenever i go out for a drink on the town with the lady, I'll see vapsters here and there with their sub-ohm setups. And here i am with my Nautilus Mini and whatever low-wattage mod I decided to pair it with.

Honestly, each day I seem to enjoy using these low wattage devices, such as the VV4 and a Nautilus Mini, more and more as opposed to my sub-ohm gear.

With my Nautilus, the flavor and throat hit is always spot on, and the vapor is nice too for what it is. I seem to be using this setup more and more lately... And when subbing, it's rare for me to get that satisfying hit, i just find myself vaping more and more to feel satisfied thus burn through a ton of juice. With a Nautilus, I get that satisfying hit right away and vape here and there.

With my sub-ohm gear, juices can be a hit or miss at times in terms of flavor and hit. But i can always count on my Nautilus Mini to give me exactly what I want each and every time.

I even bought a MVP20 at a killer price to perfectly compliment the Nautilus Mini. I wouldnt be burning through nearly as much juice, thus saving me money in the long run.

It's nice to blow crazy big clouds in public, but im starting to fall back on mimicking a standard cigarette with vaping rather than chase clouds.

Am i crazy for shying away from sub-ohming? Maybe it will be fun again after i take a break from it?

Istick Pico And Nautilus 2 S, Options And Alternatives?

Greetings to all

Having quit cigs, I am alternating With Jf Minifit*20mg Nicsalt for outside and nic craving, and Aspire K4*3mg regNic at home, because as it leaks and, at just over 12cm, too big, annoying for pocket. K4 is great to vape and at length with low nic, since I do sometimes just need to keep puffing, and I am worried about how much I use the minifit with the 20.

I am hoping y'all'll be able to advise and help. The following is a rather stretched permutation of a similar thread (with older gear and less details):
Will the Aspire Nautilus fit the iStick Pico?

Looking now to have something with the (1)dual function, to gradually lower the nicotine while shifting the settings to keep things cofortable and satisfying. In other words, I am seeking to have something that can do both 20mg Nicsalt and Subohm.
(2)Size (averse to large devices) and (2)leakage are priorities. So is (4)ease of filling and coil replacement. In addition, if possible, I would like to exclusively (5?)keep with salts (even as I lower the nic).

The boys at the store recommended istick pico + nautilus 2s. Does this setup work for the numbered and underlined above? Do the pieces fit? If so, can I use the sub-ohm coil for low nicsalt or is the material of the salt just bad for sub-ohm regardless of nic level?

Which is easier to fill/change coil: nautilus 2s standard or TPD? ANy other differences? Is the TPD available in Europe?

Is nautilus the only tank with the dual function?

Is it worth having two tanks to be able to keep shifting? Whether Nautilus 2s or another? And is there some sort of bag or case for my stuff to keep in my backpack (saw a lady with something for her stick in her purse once)?

Given the purpose of ease, Should I consider the Orion Lost vape, or is the ability to lower the wattage just not enough, and I need something with high-ohm. Keeping in mind I don't like anything higher than 3mg on the Aspire K4.

What about Chubby Bunny and Magico? Easy alterntives that vape better than Minifit, have a little more options but not too complicated and still easy to use, fill, etc?

I noticed, pico is small, together with 2s they'll be bigger than K4. Given the purpose of size, what about the istick pico baby + nautilus mini? Do the sizes fit and can nautilus mini take high/sub-ohm coils?

Is nautilus mini easy to fill like 2s or is it like the old nautilus requiring cap removal?

On their website, I read that nautilus mini has 2ml capacity and standard/tpd 2.6, but in the thread above it said the standard has 5ml. Who's correct?

Why didn't the boy recommend other setups? I came across istick pico X and Snowwolf mini and what about Aspire own mods like the one that comes with nautilus; the Zelos, K1 Stealth or Reax Mini?

Finally, is there antyhing I should know about VG/PG percentages with Salts and any of the devices above?

Thanks in advance!  

Nautilus Wattage ?

Hi guys

Another day another question...... What's the maximum wattage the Nautilus will vape safely at ? Last night i decided to purchase a ZNA 50 mod after reading a thread on these forums. I recently got a Alantis + Sub Ohm battery Valentines week, i'm definitely getting more into vaping with the Alantis a month in. More flavour more of a enjoyable experience all together.

I bought 0 mg Nicotine Apple juice for the Nautilus by mistake so re ordered etc the right strength. While i was waiting i just vaped on the Alantis, yesterday went back to the Nautilus and the experience wasn't really enticing.

I was thinking going with two Alantis tanks hence the reason why i decided last night to go ahead with the purchase of the ZNA 50. Now i'm wondering if the ZNA 50 will improve the Nautilus regarding flavour ?

I like my flavour being a menthol smoker, if not i should be able to use it with the Alantis and buy another tank and have two.

I use the Nautilus on a Vamo 5 that can only go up to 15 Watts. What's the maximum in wattage the Nautilus can do ?  

To Sub-ohm Or Not To Sub-ohm

I'm an ex-smoker who enjoys the throat hit I used to get with cigs. I find that I get a much better throat hit and better flavor overall with my Nautilus Mini at about 14 watts than I do with my Atlantis at 30 watts.

When I want to blow some massive clouds just for the hell of it, I'll crank the Atlantis up to 30. I don't really understand WHY I don't get good throat hit and flavor with sub-ohms at higher wattage. Does anyone have a good explanation for this?  

So Far How Much +/- Did You Spent On Vaping?

Been vaping and quited smoking last year December 07,2014. Until now, my set up is strictly just two (2). First Vivi Nova 3.5ml + a Vamo 6, with one spare tank and 3 wicks. Then after a month I bought a second set-up namely: Aspire Nautilus 5ml + a Cloupor mini 30W. I do have a have a bad habit of having/purchasing a replacement or emerency tank so I also have an Aspire Nautilus Mini and 5 spare BVC coils. Well my rough estimation is around less than USD200 including e-Juice which I got from friends... Marlboro and Cuban Cigar flavors.

I mix those two juices, because Cuban Cigar juice is almost perfect clear in color, while Marlboro is Light to medium yellow... while Cuban cigar CAN be vaped at 15up Watts without burnt taste, but lacks "Throat hit" so, I add 30/20 cuban /Malrboro for more throat hits... all at zero (0) nico. btw.

Goal is: to keep away from analogs, still play with moderate vapor and enjoy throat hits + the smell of cigar and try to save money. I consider myself a "Casual Vaper".  

Once You Sub You Can't Stop

Does anybody else on here feels once they start their new journeys with sub vaping they can't stop and find it hard jumping back to their old tanks set ups ? I'm just wondering what people views are on the subject.

I mean i have 2 set ups my Nautilus on my Vamo 5 which i been vaping with for 6 months now, it was good the Nautilus was my baby to the Alantis came a long. If i vape on the Nautilus these days it feels like i'm smoking a weak roll up ciggie.

The Alantis gives a great nice vape but the downside is you always filling the tank up, i mean i can get a night out the Alantis before having to refil. But the experience is far more advanced then anything the Nautilus set up can give me.  

Can You Use A Bdc Coil In A Aspire Nautilus Mini?

My GF is a chronic smoker (over a pack a day) and Ive been doing a heap of research into vapors in an effort to help her quit, I just bought an Aspire Nautilus Mini for her but upon further research i notice some users were worried about the ceramic fiber in BVC Nautilus Coils.

I know Aspire claims the ceramic filter is ok but there is lots and lots of research to show ceramic fibers cause cancer, so whilst my GF has bigger problems with her excessive smoking i dont want to give her something to compound the chances of cancer.

Question: Can i fit and use a BDC in a Nautilus Mini? the filters are different but i know they are interchangeable, i just dont know if it will work? anyone tried?

The BVC contains the ceramic coil and the BDC doesnt?

Thanks for anyone with a reply, i appreciate your time.

Nautilus Mini Spitting?

okay so i hope i'm posting this in the right place, but i have a nautilus mini that i've had since december and i just bought a new coil for it yesterday from my trusted local vape shop and it was working okay at first, but then it started gurgling and spitting juice into my mouth

this isn't the first time it's done this, i actually stopped using it for a while because of this problem (and the coils were old, so i thought that's what was causing it) but i just put a new coil in and it's still happening...

i have scoured the internet for reasons why this might be happening and i've tried every trick in the book and nothing has worked

PLEASE HELP!  

Having A Hard Time Finding The Right Set-up

I'm having a mad time trying to find a tank or clearo to fit a relatively small battery to upgrade from my triton without having to go to a MOD set-up I need a nice drip-tip too.It seems like an in between of my Triton tank and a MOD I can't quite find the vapor production I'm looking for I lowered my ohms on the triton 1.8 it did produce a bit more vapor but the tanks just aren't built for those ohms and they run to hot.I've already gone through three coils.I looked at the Aspire Nautilus mini premium kit not completely sold on it, eGo One battery with Nautilus mini but I think the tank I'm looking for should hold more e-liquid.Any help here much appreciated.  

More Nic Delivery Nautty Mini Vs Kayfun

Just wondering what everyone who has used both tanks think of there effectiveness. A 1.6-1.8 bvc coil nautilus vs a 1.5 micro coil in a kayfun v4 (clone). Would you rate them the same?? I only ask because it seems the nic (6mg) in my nautilus tank at 17 watts has less effect than my kayfun 4 (tobecco clone) at 17 watts, (same juice 50/50 mix) Obviously the kayfun is not a dripper, but does the micro coil have any impact as far as vapor effectiveness??Sometimes I think I get a little nic sick compared to the the nautilus mini. idk maybe I'm just paranoid lol
