Coils, Nauty, not getting it :(

[Tumb3w33ds]

Hey yall, aloha. I have posted before and am a 7 Provari owner. I vape on 4 minis Naughties, and 2.5 with the big batteries. For lack of a better term. I am starting to freak out....I have all Aspire Nautilus tanks. Mostly Minis, 2 fulls.
I have 1.8 ohm coils, and they are dying....in a few puffs.


I cannot get through even half a tank without my coils dying.

My point of this all was to quit smoking. I now have to but 5 coils to make it through 2 days, with my rotation of juices and devices. I am spending more on this than smoking Marbs. I am getting sad.

I have all 2.5s. And naughty tanks. It was never like this before. I do clean them. I am out of coils and just got 4 new ones tonight. My BM is stunned that I get worried about this...said they should last weeks. They last half a tank.

I vape at 4.8v

Help :/

Also, all tanks and all coils matched on all 2.5 devices, same result.

What coils exactly are you using?
And what kind of juice (the PG/VG ration - for thickness is why I ask)

I don't have Nautilus, but I know people will ask - because that IS wrong, a coil should last much much longer. It could be crap coils - a bad batch or even "fakes". It could be you're not getting them wicking right - juice too thick for the wicking in the coil (I used to pull some cotton out of Kanger coils).

I use a 40/60 and it was OK before. My coils are 1.8 Nautilus BVC. I am dying. I

Something seems to be wrong. The Nautilus coils have a scratch off sticker on the back of the box... make sure they are authentic.

 

[Tumb3w33ds]

They are all real, it has been like this for a few months and a dozen batches.

I have cleaned all my devices, and my tanks. I am getting super sad, I have no idea why it was once so good, and it now going downhill. I lurk on all the threads, and and not financially able to to Kabuki, and not sure I even want to. I am am pretty sure it is my coils. I have buying from ecigavenue . They have always done me right and fast shipping. Now, it all bad. I am out of coils, and I hate the fact I am gonna say I wanna got buy a pack of smokes. I literally have NOTHING to vape, and I had 4 5-packs of 1.8's from ecigavenue last week, just burned out on the last one after half a tank on a Nautilus on a 2.5....I am not loving it.

 

[Tumb3w33ds]

I am fixing to cry. This makes me want to smoke the stinkies. I just washed out one coil, vodka like yall say...dried it out....I have nothing. I hate this.

 

[Tumb3w33ds]

What am I doing wrong????? The last few months have cost me more than Marlboros. I have no idea what in the hell I am doing wrong. I have 6 p2.5s, and 10 aspire talks that were always OK. 1.8 coils. Juice is all the same....please input I am not ok with this and about to go to Hawaii Circle K which doesn't even exist....going crazy...

 

[Tumb3w33ds]

I have tanks on call, and I am recruiting them all now, and they are all OK for a few puffs....and then burn. What am I doing wrong and why has it all gone bad? Sorry to crash the party, I am a long time lurker who is freak out depsarate :/

I don't know what to tell you. I had a lot of problems with Nautilus coils, but mine leaked half the time. I gave up on them and gave my Nautilus tanks away.

What are the coils doing? Burnt hits? Leaking? Just not working? I did have to clean the contact under the coil in the base a couple times.

If you have a multimeter, check the actual output of your mod.

Never used a provari myself - but 4.8v seems pretty high to me. Right now, doing 3.7v on 2.1 ohm with an istick and an iclear30. At 4.0 I won't see my monitor anymore...

Try lowering the voltage some, maybe them coils aren't capable of handling 4.8 ...

 

[SomeTexan]

Are you priming the coils before using? I always put a drop of juice in from the top of the coil, and put a few drops on the openings in the side. Another trick is to cover the air holes in the base and lightly blow into the drip tip. This puts pressure in the tank and forces juice into the coil. Too much and it will flood though.

4.8 at 1.8 ohm should be 12.8 watts. I vaped those at well over 15 watts. I don't think that would be a problem.

Coils could have been mislabeled. Check their resistance on the Provari if you have one thats not completely fried.

 

[Tumb3w33ds]

I prime. A lot . And coils are confirmed at 1.8ohm. Nothing is different about anything about my routine. I Provape device. Nautilus tanks, and same juice from Maui. I am baffled and burnt

 

[Tumb3w33ds]

I have 20 coils (4 5 packs) and all are the same. I hate sounding like a bimbo, but this is real.

 

[Tumb3w33ds]

All are shot. I went though the 20 just tonight. I have nothing left.

Have you tried lower power? If they are getting burnt it's either too much power or not enough juice. Even though I'm not big on Aspire "quality", it's a simple concept with only so many things that can go wrong.

Thats the thing with stuff from China. Quality control is hit or miss.

People have been experiencing a lot of trouble with certain Nautilus coils in the Kabuki as well.

Op that probably doesnt make you feel any better, but you arent alone in this.

There is supposed to be an American company that is making replacement Nautilus coils. I havent tried them so cant vouch for them but if you want I will try to look them up for you.
