What Are The Benefits Of High Vv/vw Mods?

Hi all

So I keep hearing about mods that go up to 100-150w. Right now I'm using an istick 30 with the aspire nautilus and whenever I vape above 19VW I get a burnt taste. I use 100% VG juice at 6MG.

If I pair a subtank sub-ohm tank with a high voltage mod will I be able to vape above 19w without a burnt taste?

If I could, what will a high VV/VW mod actually do to enhance my vaping experience? Stronger nicotine hit?

From using the istick at 19VW I don't see any difference from when I was vaping at 11.0VW on the MVP2.

Also, isn't it dangerous after the coils exceed a certain temperature?

I Think I'm Dumb (or Maybe Just Happy)

So I need to make sure right off the bat that no one misunderstands this post as somehow an attack on any vaper of any kind. I'm posting this because I have become genuinely curious and feel I may be missing out on my vaping experience. I've had an APV of some kind or another for the last 2 years or so, nothing ever real fancy or expensive (I just got an istick 50W and love it) but APVs none the less. I have found that I only really vape at very low Watts/Volts compared to many on this (as we speak I'm vaping The Virus in an old original model protank with a 2.2ohm coil in it at 3.8V--6.5W). Now it's not because I don't own a device that can reach the Watt levels I want, any of them can; in fact, I purchase higher resistance coils so I have a bigger range to vape at. My first VV battery was an ego style twist, and I have always kept with the same mentality (again, I'm not suggesting this is the right way, or better than others at all)-- I start at a low voltage, hit it, and continue to raise it .1V at a time until I get a burnt hit. I dial it one down, and there I am. Now I always use the Variable Voltage setting, and where I vape usually works out to be in the 5.5-7.5W range. Now, I have noticed that this is astoundingly low for the devices I use. My question is: when vaping at such high Watt levels, how can you taste the juice at all? I mean, at home (obviously not out in public) I would love to be getting even more satisfying vapor from these devices, which is clearly possible. So what am I doing wrong? What am I missing? Why is it that in the 6-7W range even my hits taste so burnt and dry I would never dream of continuing? All of your information/advice is greatly appreciated. Vape On.  

Burnt Taste

Aspire Nautilus Tank Works On Mvp 20w?

Hi all. I've been thinking of trying the Aspire Nautilus tank on my MVP 20w since I've read so many good things about it here. I'm doing mouth to lung vaping and I have an iStick 30 on the way too.

I just want to confirm the Nautilus tank will work on both mods? And what replaceable coils should I get for the Nautilus? Thanks!  

Strange Burnt Taste

I've got one that has me puzzled. I went through two fills of my Aerotank V2 with Cosmic Fog's Milk and Honey when it started to taste burnt. I figured no big deal, let me change the coil and clean the tank and all will be well. Well, new coil and cleaned tank and about 4 drags in it tastes burnt again. Thinking maybe I have a bum coil I try another one. Same deal.
I'm at a loss. It's the same bottle of liquid, same tank (cleaned each time), same battery (iStick 50w), same wattage (8.9), same resistance (1.2 ohm). Anyone have any clue what's could be causing this? It's getting expensive in coils and liquid!

Thanks  

Sigelie Coils Taste Like Ebay Knock Offs

Im new to external battery mods but have been vaping for 3 years and I know how to prime a coil with e-juice. I go the extra mile after I prime the coil and let it sit for a minute. Then I fill up the tank put it back together and do not touch it for at least an hour or two just to make sure. I just got my now verified as legit sigelei sobra with the moonshot 120 both of the coils from that taste like those knock off BS eBay fake coils. I started off at a very low wattage and I don't know what's wrong both coils are disgusting. It's not exactly a burnt taste or a dry taste it's like a sour off taste and I can't use them. It also makes me feel like I have something in the back of my throat. What in the heck is going on? Do these coils take awhile to become usable? They're the coils that came with the mod and I verified the mod so I assume the coils are also okay. I even went so far as to try the second coil on a different mod but with the same tank just in case the mod was frying things the very first hit. Can anyone give me an idea of what's going on so I know what I need to do and also if anyone could tell me whether or not the Cascade baby coils will fit in the moonshot 120  

A Reborn Vaper Looking For Advice.

Hi forum,
I've been a smoker for 25 yrs. 2-3 PPD of lights. 7 yrs ago I started to vape and was able to cut back to 10 analogs a day. I used KR808 with cartos and then upgraded to Ego's with cartos and later tank atomizers. Dripping was never my game. A year and a half later, I stopped vaping and went back to cigs. Why? I got tired of charging, filling, leakage, dry burnt hits, modding ...etc. And I was not getting the satisfaction I needed.
A couple of weeks ago, I thought why not give it another try. So I got my boxes of eliquid and batteries out of the closet. I was surprised that all my Egos were still working (the KR808's are all dead). What's more surprising is that the eliquid is still good after 5 or 6 yrs. The flavor is still as good as it was. And the nicotine is still there. The TH, peppery taste and the buzz are still the same. So here I am, vaping again and I already cut back my cigs use to 10-15 per day.
I wanted to check the ecig world of today. And what's better than ECF. I've been at ECF for 6-10 hrs daily for a week now. And omg what a change!! VV, VW, TC, tanks, rebuildables, Subohms, NET, WTA, mods, mods and even more mods. Amazing! Hats off to the ECF family. I don't think all these advances would've been possible without ECF. Ideas are born here.
With all these advances I'm hoping that I'll be able to quit cigs completely. But it's really confusing and I need advice from the veterans here. As to my vaping style, I inhale M2L, use 70/30 to 40/60 pg/VG most of time. I chain vape !! 24 mg is the least that works for me. 36 mg is better. I like a warm (not hot) vape. I need a good balance of vapor and flavor. I'm not into mechs, rebuildables, dripping or modding. I like hassle free setups. fill, plug and vape away.
I want 2 setups. One for work and stealth vaping. Should be smallish (Ego size), does not look ridiculous, consistant and easy to use. box is ok but should be small. It should still have options that will enhance the experience. The second setup is for use at home. maybe a high end VV VW with TC. Damn! that Sx mini looks great. /But i'll wait before throwing away $200.
Sorry for the long post. But what suggestions and tips can you give for these 2 setups?
TIA  

Nautilus Mini Gurgling - Tried Everything I Can Think Of

Starting from a clean - authentic nautilus mini - with a brand new 1.6 (or 1.8 it makes no difference) coil (coils also verified as authentic).

1. Turn tank upside down - with tip removed and fill with juice.
2. Take base unit and set so no air holes are open.
3. Put a tiny bit of juice around the o ring of the base unit (i get the issues if I do this or not)
4. Put 2 small drops of juice into the coil (I get the issues if do this or not)
5. Screw the coil into the base unit (as tight as you can comfortably get it without going past the obvious stop point and damaging something)
6. Screw the coil/base unit into the tank.
7. Turn nautilus mini correct way up.
8. Move air hole to a middle setting.
9. Take some primer puffs with no power.
10. Leave standing for 5-10 mins.
11. Begin vaping gently at 6 watts - moving up slowly to 10.

Ive tried all types of juice - both high VG and high PG and in-between. Invariably at some point i start to get the gurgle. Ive tried the following fixes:

1. Using a paper towel blow gently out of the air hole to get rid of juice - doesn't work - if i kept on blowing id blow the whole tank of juice out.
2. Take the unit apart - most times there will be juice in the base unit underneath where the coil sits - dry this out - dry the coil off and repeat from step 2 above missing out steps 3 and 4. - this sometimes works but its a temporary fix.

There seems to be no pattern to the problem. Sometimes the gurgle starts as soon as ive changed the coil - sometimes its ok for a week. I have 2 units and 2 spare tanks and have rotated them all using the above method - still get the issues.

I have actually never experienced the burnt taste or reduced draw because Ive always got sick and binned the coil before that point.

I am vaping generally at 9.2 watts - but have tried as low as 7 and as high as 13 - it makes no difference.

I don't draw hard - I cannot understand why I keep getting juice in the air chamber - its not a problem with a "dud coil" unless they are all intermittently dud coils - they are all authentic aspire and I've bought them from different places - so its not a dodgy batch issue - the rings are all the correct way up - I have spent hours and hours researching to try to fix these issues - and cannot for the life of me maintain a stable nautilus mini.

Can anyone save me from madness and tell me what Im doing wrong - Im tending towards a conclusion of all nautilus mini components are junk at the moment.

Many thanks in advance  

Nautilus Aspire Vs. Kanger Aerotank

Curious if any of you have gone to the Kanger Aerotank from the Nautilus Aspire tank? I have two Nautilus tanks and I have to say it is real hit and miss when I change the coils out. Sometimes I will have a clean hit and no burnt taste and other times it is burnt tasting for the life of the coil. A local vape shop told me to switch to the Kanger Aerotank. They did not have it in stock so I ordered it to try. Yes I am doing the whole prep scenario with the drops and hitting it 4 to 5 times before hitting the button. He told me it is common with the Nautilus, but not with the Kanger Aerotank. Any feedback?  

Taste Issues With Kanger Subtank Mini.....

I am new to the mod world and I entered the foray with an IStick 30 and a Kanger Subtank Mini. When I use an old cheapo tank that came off an earlier Ego my juice taste fine. It's a 2.7 ohm coil set at 7.5 watts at 4.5 volts.The problem is the taste with my Kanger hooked up. It is very harsh. I also do not get the same visible exhaust (sorry, but I can't think of another term ) I operate it at about the same watts. I have tried both a sub ohm coil and a 1.2 ohm coil. I have also tried different air intake settings. One thing to note: The cheapo tank gives me a much tighter draw (It's harder to draw in the air). I have adjusted the Kanger down to the smallest inlet and the resistance still seems very easy.

Would the difference in resistance of the coils affect the taste with running the same power. Do some juices just not taste good with different tanks? I must be doing something wrong. Maybe I assembled it wrong by leaving out something but for the life of me I can't see what? I did insert a little piece of cotton in one of the coils which was foreign to me.

Any ideas? Fire away and don't assume anything. Again, I am ignorant with these mods so I am learning here. Thanks a bunch  

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!
