Hi guys, is my Aspire mini setup old school?

[Bucky Goldstein]

I've been super happy with my Aspire mini Pegasus with the Triton mini running Clapton coils
And even though it still works great it's pretty beat up and I'm out of coils so before I order yet another box of coils I just wondered if there's something newer or better
I still want an 18650 mod because that's what I'm set up for.
I don't sub ohm, I just like a nice comfortable, non-obnoxious vape... no clouds here

So what do you think?
What's newer or better?
Thanks!
Bucky

honestly? if you're happy with your vape and the coils are still avail? keep getting them.

If you like it Bucky, then it Doesn't matter if it is Old School.

But if you are thinking about buying something New, I would suggest maybe getting something that has an RBA Section. And Trying your hand at building your Own Coils.

running Clapton coils

I don't sub ohm

What resistance is the atomizer?
Clapton coils over 1.0ohm would take a ton of power to reach their potential.
Thats alot of metal to heat.

Triton mini is very much like nautilus... by far the best MTL vape ever. You won't find anyone that says anything new is better then that for MTL I don't think. If so they probably don't have one and are just recommending what they have because they have it lol. A MTL RTA maybe a good future purchase if you want to rebuild, for the price of two 5 packs + wire and cotton you'll be set for years.

Thanks, do thy have an RBA that is not sub Ohm? Like maybe 1.5 or something?

Do you mean Nautilus mini? I started on one of those and moved on mostly because I wanted to rebuild. Lot's of people still use them. After 2 years my brother won't part with his.

Thanks, Triton mini claptons are 1.8 ohm, they seem to work great at 12 watts

Not always, they do make 28+/32+ non fused claptons. I'd guess thats what it is. They are recommended 13-16w so it's a tiny clapton sure.

@Cheallaigh is right. If your setup still works like it should and satisfies you, just stick with it.

Alternatively, @zoiDman is also right. An RBA/RTA is great because building your own coils is easy, fun and cost effective. May also be the only way to vape if nothing changes with the deeming regulations.

But if you still want to update your equipment and you're not ready to get into building, my best suggestion would be to get a PICO topped with the Nautilus Mini. Should be able to get both for under $50.

No it's a Triton Mini, I have the Nautilus mini and prefer the Triton's clapton coils

With a RBA Section, you Build the Coil. So you can put whatever Coil you want in it.

So if you Like 1.5 Ohms, you can Build a 1.5 Ohms coil and use it.

But you can Also try other Ohms by just changing the Number of Wraps the Coil has. Or Changing the Thickness or Type of Wire that you use.

BTW - Here is an Example of an RBA Section.

This one is used in a Kanger SubTank Mini or Kanger TopTank Mini.

You put the Coil in and Secure it under the 2 Deck Screws. Then you Wick it with Cotton.

Sounds like you got a good system. I'd stick with what works, as long as it works...

 

[Gramdogg]

Yeah alot of tanks have RBA coils but not all are MTL. Crown and Triton RBA for example both have huge airflow which you can cut back with your AFC but a true MTL RBA/RTA would work much better because you'll have more room to play with the AFC instead of just almost cut off all the way. Tron, Ego One make a 1 Ohm MTL RBA or Kayfun 5 and Merlin mini RTA seem very popular as well.

Thanks, I do MTL. I have a couple sub ohm tanks with higher ohm coils and there is way too much airflow so they just sit in the closet
I like the idea of rba if I can get one suitable for +1 Ohm
I also need it and the mod mini sized for my pocket similar to what i have
Which one of those listed would be ok for that?
I'm not tech savy at this yet

 

[Gramdogg]

Pico and Tron RBA or Merlin mini RTA would look bad .... I'd suggest the Merlin mini just because RBA coils are made cheap and don't last. 5 pack will last ages but not forever like a RTA.

For an RTA that includes an RBA Section, the Kanger TopTank Mini I think would be a Good consideration for a MTL Vaper.

For a Mod, you might check out the eLeaf Pico. Very Compact for an 18650 Mod.

 

[Gramdogg]

Tron comes in a Evic VTC mini kit as well but it's a little bigger and heavier then the Pico. Pico comes with a Melo 3 mini which also has an RBA option though I'm not sure if it's built for MTL and looks much harder to build on.

 

[Gramdogg]

Another option is just rebuild your triton mini coils... not designed to be rebuilt but they can be. Sure youtube has some videos on it. Fast tech should have thin claptons, an RBA won't fit normal sized claptons in most cases.
