    Has anyone else tried the New Aspire Nautilus Mini BVC? Your thoughts...

    The steel tank for the mini is built inside like the caged glass, at least according to my b&m guy, I didn't open it up and inspect it because the unfortunately shaped window isn't enough to let me see when I'm running out of juice. The steel tank for the full-sized is just a tank, and you do...

    Has anyone else tried the New Aspire Nautilus Mini BVC? Your thoughts...

    Understood. :) Yeah, I checked mine, and they seem to be in the right way too. Still, it seems like a vacuum issue somehow. Before I picked up the caged glass, I played around with the regular glass and I did discover that making all the connections tight TIGHT (I had held off tightening super...

    I picked up the caged glass replacement tank yesterday morning. My B&M had them for 9.99, which is pretty much what they go for online. On it, the top piece where the drip-tip goes is one solid piece instead of being a metal piece that the glass screws into. The only thing that has to be screwed...

    Has anyone else tried the New Aspire Nautilus Mini BVC? Your thoughts...

    Yeah, I've heard/read so many people talking about how it's important to not cross-thread them that I've been trying to be super careful to make sure that the top of the tank is threaded and screwed on perfectly, but it is still crooked on top. It is very noticeable when my mod is sitting on a...

    HA…I've had a touch of shiny-itis and spent a little over my budget since starting this whole journey. But, I've also had a cold for the past week, and it hasn't transformed into the hideous bronchitis cough of death for the first time ever, so, worth it.

    The shop I bought my nautilus from has the latticed tanks for ten bucks. The nautilus I got there is authentic, hopefully the replacement parts are too. I might go get one and give that a try. Part of me hates to spend any more money on this dang thing, but then again, ten bucks is cheaper than...

    Beer

    They're pretty good at my beer store about trying to get in as many varieties as possible, and trying to order things that customers request. The owner loves pumpkin beer, so she does her best to get the best ones in. Hopefully next year I'll get to try it. My pumpkin beer bar is set pretty...

    Yeah, my earlier tantrum aside, when the thing works I have to admit that it's delightful, and there is a part of me that just CAN'T give up on trying to figure out what the deal is. And feeling that I must be making an error that is causing it. I did take it apart and clean up the spilled juice...

    I just noticed in this picture that most of yours are the caged glass, Sambuca. And I know from looking at the caged glass replacement tanks where I bought my Nautilus that it seems like the top part of those is all one piece…as in it doesn't unscrew from where the drip tip goes, the drip tip...

    Has anyone else tried the New Aspire Nautilus Mini BVC? Your thoughts...

    So, I left my MVP sitting upright charging with the tank on it while I cooked supper. It started to gurgle a little bit after my last post, and I remembered what some people had suggested and turned my MVP up to 10.5 w, higher than I usually vape, and it was a little better. I don't suck...

    Dude…I was starting to feel like that crazy person in the horror movie who keeps trying to tell everyone that the aliens have taken over the bodies of their friends and family, you know? (OK,not that serious, but still.) I just took the whole tank apart, drained the juice into an empty bottle...

    Has anyone else tried the New Aspire Nautilus Mini BVC? Your thoughts...

    I did what you said, and WOW, quite a bit of juice came out! It fixed the gurgle for about 15 minutes (considering I'm watching netflix and chain vaping) and then…gurgle again. It is gurgling so much at this point that it sounds like I'm puffing on…something that isn't an APV and has water in...

    Beer

    Meh. More for me. :) Sgt. Pepper, I haven't been able to get the Dogfish Head. I've heard it's the best of the best, and my local store stocks some Dogfish Head varieties, but they don't order the pumpkin beer. :(

    Beer

    Yay for pumpkin beer! Ichabod is good. Smutty Nose is good. Blue Mountain Spooky is AMAZING, aged in bourbon casks and brewed with pumpkin and cocoa nibs. I'm a craft beer drinker and am lucky enough to have a fantastic "fancy beer store" in my town, so October is a whirlwind "try every pumpkin...

    Slightly paranoid about driving and vaping...

    Really, I've noticed that kind of weird camaraderie with vapers in lots of places lately. Like you see each other and it's "You vaping?! Yeah, I'm vaping too! Awesome!" Some rando kid outside a bookstore, the receptionist at the place that works on my car, people outside my work and at the...

    When can you legitimately call yourself a NON-smoker???

    Well, according to my insurance company, I have to wait 9 years to be classified as a non-smoker to see a change in my premium. But as far as I'm concerned, I am a non-smoker. Which is pretty nifty, since I was a smoker for longer than the nice boys who work at my favorite vape shop have...

    Innokin announces SVD 2.0

    I played with one at my local shop (ElectraVapor) today. Man, it is surprisingly heavy metal and substantial-feeling, and it looks pretty cool in person. I'm not sure that I want to get into sub ohm coils, or dripping, but I'm considering it, and this seems like a reasonably priced unit that...

    Ok…forgive my newbie ignorance as this might be a dumb question…but you're saying to put a paper towel over the tip and blow upwards through the airflow hole in the side? I will gladly give it a try! Also, thanks for the link for the coils. They're 2.99 at my B&M, so that's a pretty good savings.

    Slightly paranoid about driving and vaping...

    I thought about this thread today. I was driving to my local vape shop to get coils and juice. A cop was behind me from the time I turned at the light to head down the main road where the shop is. I didn't think anything of it, was vaping on my MVP at the light and going down the road. When I...

    Has anyone else tried the New Aspire Nautilus Mini BVC? Your thoughts...

    Honestly? After using mine for almost two weeks…I'm not thrilled with it. I had the nasty taste issue, which was resolved by switching out the coil and soaking the tank in soapy water over night. After that, the taste and vapor were OK, but not this OMG best vape ever that other people seemed to...
