I love the sight of new gear. Its a beautiful thing. Let us know how it works.

Using it right now

Very nice. I like how adjustable it is. I can adjust air flow(I'm blowing some HUGE clouds), volts, watts, ohms(I think)..everything.

I like big CLOUDS. That looks like a great little unit, and of course, there is no going wrong with the nautilus. I've seen lots of posts of people still swearing its the best damn tank out there despite the new stuff coming out. I'm sure I will somehow stumble across one at some point :D
Oh, and that tank holds an absolute gang load of juice, doesn't it?

I must need a new tank myself. My juices finally arrived and the flavors are really muted. I could smell the "absinthe" from 3 feet away from my mailbox, yet i can barely taste the shit. ego c twist as well.

Yea the construction is good and I think I can use the same bottom heads as the protank 2 so I like that. Also less airy which is nice for a good draw. Right now I'm vaping blue moo mixed with artic Wolfe.

Do you guys dry burn when changing flavors or just wash the tank out ?

I've just washed the tank and coil head with hot water. Last night I just filled the tank with cherry juice and it already had some watermelon in there. No biggie really. I think i'll eventually find my favorite flavors, and have a tank dedicated to that flavor, or a coil head used for that flavor at least, just to make it easier.
Want a different flavor? Just switch the tank.

Yeah, thats where Im at, have 4 tanks, but they arent very big, only hold about 3-4ml at a time. And some of the flavour like menthol, ruin the coils for other flavours...

I don't mind mixed flavors but I always have some menthol in there. When I have more time I do a thorough cleaning and dry burn the coils and wicks as long as they are not cotton.

Anyone here running a mech mod? I've got a Panzer clone with an Atomic clone on top :) I use my MVP2 + Nautilus for the car.

I have three Nemesii, one each; copper, stainless and aluminum.

Most recent vapemail contained a Stillare clone. Have it setup with dual cotton wicked microcoils @ .4Ω. Much easier to build than the Omega clone I had been vaping and the higher well wall and airhole is much less leak prone when overdripped.:thumbsup:

I like the Kayfuns when not dripping and PT2s on a Spinner for hang around the neck portability when on the run.

Vape On

OK, check it out. Viper-Vape.com

Go there, PURCHASE their Grape Rancher e-juice. Put it in your rig, VAPE IT, and thank me later.

While the reviews for the Nautilus are overwhelmingly positive $35 for just a tank is kinda pricy for me. Also the Protank by Kranger uses a different type of coil than the Nautilus, they won't be interchangeable. One of the things that keeps me using my protank is that replacement carts are $6.88 for a 5-pack, shipped on Ebay. At that price I don't have to fiddle with rebuilding coils and such.

Look for deals, I got my Nautilus for $26 with free shipping.

and a 5pack of replacement coils is generally $10-15.
which for a dual coil, isn't a bad price.

I will also put this here. It's helped me out a lot when trying new tech.

This will show you optimal voltage based on your atomizer resistance. Experiment around with it for different type of juices.

The number in the boxes is in variable watts. Your evic will correctly choose it based on the atomizer you connect but I've got good results experimenting.

I am a little confused I think. My original tank that I got has a 1.8ohm single coil. The chart says up to 3.9 and the instructions for the tank say max is 3.7. I find that 3.4 or so vapes best in that tank.
My new tanks, with 1.5ohm dual coils, tank instructions say 3.0-5.0 volts! That's only with 1.5ohms! The 2.0ohm coil tank instructions say 3.5-5.5 volts! That's way higher than the chart and I find that they do vape best just under 5 volts. Damn, it must be the dual coils or something?

Along with my new tank, I have some e juices coming from here:

http://www.viper-vape.com/categories/e-liquid/standard-e-liquid/pg-vg-mix.html

Below are the ones I bought to try out and I will report my opinion.

Juicy Strawberry
Grape Rancher
Coffee Bavarian Hazelnut Cream
Vanilla Bean Decadence

CAN'T WAIT.

Juice report. These are from viper-vape.com

Juicy Strawberry = very good as long as voltage is dialed in. Nice and tasty with a good flavor and vape. It seems to be sensitive to voltage though.

Grape Rancher = best shit I've tried so far. Just amazing. I chain vape this like crazy.

Coffee Bavarian Hazelnut Cream = This is amazing. Plain and simple. I love it. I can chain vape the hell out of this.

Vanilla Bean Decadence = good flavor, but a little rich to vape a lot for me. Very strong flavor and just too rich for lots of vaping.


I just mixed a tank full of coffee and vanilla bean. We'll see how that goes. I find myself obsessing over flavors now. I got a few new ones I haven't tried yet. They are from provape and are:

Red Hot Cinnamon
Absolute Zero Menthol
Fruit Juice

The cinnamon is so strong I smelled it when I opened the shipping box, so that should be interesting. I'll be testing these in the mini.

Yea the chart is a bit weird and it varies for dual and single coils. I would use it as a reference if anything and expirement with voltage as needed.

Do let me know how the menthol juice is. I am waiting on some Mr e's menthol I ordered Friday. I need to find a non menthol all day vape too and I'll take a look at the site you linked.

I'm buying way too much e-juice. I'll have to go DIY at some point. I want to try everything! I think I like strawberry and watermelon the least. For some reason they are much harsher on my throat than the others. Pretty strange. Good flavor, but often harsh.

Hmm I was thinking about ordering watermelon rancher and the Brazilian Bavarian coffee. I would expect the grape rancher to be harsh too. I usually hate the flavor of anything grape unless it is real grapes.

My Nautilus is still half full after 3 days think I might just invest in a few more of those for starters.

Haven't even tried my toffee tabacco out yet.

As good as the VIVI look I could buy about 5 of those though.

But yeah might be practical if you've gone down that line.

I won't give up on watermelon and strawberry yet. I'll try them with less nic. I like the flavor, but the throat hit is hard, possibly due to the 24mg of nic. The grape rancher isn't harsh at all for me. Its just pure goodness. I'll try some 18mg grape from another company, just out of curiosity.

That tank of yours holds a whopping 5ml of juice from what I read. That's a fuck ton and would last me for several days.

You can also knock down the PG and up the VG to help with the throat harshness but most of it is from the nic content. I like a 50/50 ratio myself.
