After a bit of help, friends

[SecretVapist]

No prob! Happy to help

Well I just bought a 30w for portability - and it didn't hurt that it matches the black lemo both on size (23mm) and finish. I have the old one also so I knew the size was perfect for out and about. Let's be real, equipment gets lost, damaged, stolen, etc... At some point you're gonna find yourself with an extra 50 bucks and think, hell... why not get the 50w, that way I'll have a backup! Seriously though, the device (30w) doesn't dissapoint.

Now, the Atlantis is a great buy for what it is. I find it's flavor is a bit muted vs a kayfun/Lemo style RTA, but that's expected and it will most def make you happy. That being said even though the Atlantis is perfectly vapeable at 20w-30w, you might find yourself wanting more wattage. It goes without saying that we all agree that recommending a sub ohm topper is a big no-no for a beginner, but since it's out there I thought I'd give my opinion.

The nautilus I have a love hate relationship. Ironically I'm using one right now. I'd rather not comment on it since a lot of people rave about it and it's undoublty a great beginner device. I think I've just had bad luck with it. YMMV, and I'll just deffer to my fellow vapers on the topic of the Nautilus.

Great post, you're talking my language! Thank you, sir. The Atlantis isn't going to be the first one I use.. In fact it may stay in the box for a bit while I get acquainted with it all.. and do you have the Mini or the origional Nautilus? Hopefully the mini doesn't present the same issues that you may have experienced. Fingers crossed.

No metal taste, and they don't get as hot as metal tips.

I also use drip tip insulators and recently got angled 510 drip tip adapters.

LMAO, sorry I have a couple of the mini's

Get one anyway though. It might work wonders for you. And even if you decide to outgrow it and go for a RTA or RDA two weeks from now, it's still money well spent to stop smoking and you'll have a backup. Or you could donate it to a friend to help him stop.

BTW, if you do get a Nautilus, the adapters that edyle mentions will do wonders to avoid dry hits caused by unproper wicking when the juice goes under a certain level (tilting the tank to vape causes most of the holes on the coil to lose contact with the juice after going under a certain level of juice)

I've never tried it, but yeah it should help. One thing to have in mind is that it llooks long as hell. It might look weiird. It might make your vapor less warm as vapor has more distance to travel.

Looks like it'll be out in just a week or two so I may wait. If someone who knows what's going on can take a look at my cart and confirm that I haven't chosen the wrong things, i'd really appreciate it.
Great forum!

Everything looks good, just FYI, you are ordering an istick 30 or 50 watt, the full size nautilus might look better on them, same coils fit both, so coils are fine either way. Full size nautilus holds more liquid than the mini also.
