good price!

Sure is. Even with their $6 shipping it is a good deal.

Argh!!! Things just move way to fast in our world doesn't it? That's a good thing!! But, can be frustrating. Right now she's happy with her Aspire/Davide's. By the time she gets close to running out of heads, the next great thing will be out or the price on the nautilus, etc.. will go down. Win win!!

Agreed!

if you subscribe to their newsletter, you get 10% off, iirc! i get my nic juice from them. they run specials and extra discounts at holiday times.
free shipping over $75. they are a day or 2 slower than the quickest suppliers, but not bad overall.

Best Electronic Cigarettes and E-Liquid - MyFreedomSmokes.com

They also have a 10% discount code through january 31 (YU9317). I ordered from them last night but, not a Nautilus :) The 10% for my order did not really offset the high shipping for a small order. I did not need $75 worth of stuff.

I get stuff from them next day because they are close but, I do not order much from them because of the shipping cost. They just happened to have a flavoring that I needed and my regular supplier did not have.

2 nautiluses and some coils ought to hit the mark!

Well, yeah if you want/need two of them. better hurry because as soon as another vendor drops a dime on them, their price will increase :( That is what happened with 2 vendors that I know of so far.

The last time I checked discount vapors had them but they are out of stock. This place Anyvape Davide BCC to BDC Adapter - Viper Vape Inc has them. They have a coupon code floating around somewhere. (I think this is what you might be looking for).

Just looked DV has them in stock again.
[FONT="] Davide BCC/ProTank II Adapter for Aspire Coils[/FONT]

This is exactly what I meant, thank you. Now I have to convince DV to send to my location... They said suffered from CC fraud...

I got several adpters from Discount Vapers a few weeks back. They work well with the PT1 and the PT2. I have no issues with my Aspire Davide's either though.

Are you talking about the gasket type thing that is on the end of the air tube and keeps juice from going into the air tube? That can be removed if you don't like it. I am not sure of what fill holes you could be speaking of other than that?

The bottom part of the tank that screws on, is mostly one piece except for two reasonable sized fill holes. When you turn it upside down, forms an air bubble that keeps the liquid from getting to the head. Maybe the white gasket makes matters worse. The same setup on the PT1 works flawlessly...
BTW, in the PT 1 if you lose the white adapter you can simply use a silicone seal from a leftover kanger head. Fits right in.

I'm seriously thinking about getting a regular Aspire Mini Vivi (reverse threaded, less likely to leak). I have no problems with airflow in any of my devices, although I like to harden the draw somewhat. But remember the juice straw, too tight an airflow and you'll have juice in your mouth!

My vaping budget is getting tighter by the minute... I'm still debating if to get a second clearo or not. Maybe it'll work better or not at all. If it worked I'd take the dive, but like everything a lot of factors are in the air...

I have 4 of the Davide adapters in use on 3) PT-2s with one extra, had a guy offer me $20 on the spot the other day for the adapter. Turned him down as I was worried about losing the little plastic button.

Good to know the Kanger head gasket will work as if there is one thing I have is dozens of used PT and evod coils laying around waiting for me to feel like re-coiling them........

I guess that I am just not getting what you are talking about. None of mine have fill holes. I fill directly into my tanks. The only thing that I could imagine with two holes is the white silicone piece that is only there to keep juice from going into the air tube as you fill. That piece is not needed and they can be used without.

Photo isn't very good, I'll try to get another one. The base is one piece except for those fill holes and the air hole. Too small for liquid to get in. As long as I know all Davides are like that.

Received my Nautilus in the mail today. Paid 38 bucks and change from GotVapes.com. Came all set up and good to go. Filled it with my favorite Space Jam (Omega) and it worked like a champ out of the box. The variable air flow took some getting used to but once you find your setting it's all good. The real test will be to see how the heads perform. They are a bit pricey at almost 19 bucks for a 5 blister pack. Vapor and flavor are excellent so over all I give it a thumbs up absent any coil issues down the road. :2cool:

Okay! I have it now. I was picturing something that we would actually fill the tank into type of hole.

I am also curious as to the QC on those coils. Just imagine paying $18-$19 and getting duds. If that starts happening, these will die a quick death and really go on sale lol

Well... if you appreciate Rip Tripper's opinion Aspire Nautilus Clearomizer - YouTube
the new Aspire Nautilus ... is the best clearomizer made to date...

Interestingly...this thread started when the Aspire BDC was "the best clearomizer made to date".

My introduction to vaping "starter kit" had 3 CE4's. I liked them...quit analogs easily...then spent the next 5 months buying/trying the "next best" clearomizer.

About a month ago I ran across this Baditude post in a cartotank thread:

"I get the opportunity to try most of the newer clearomizers on the market, and none of them have been able to hold a candle with a cartotank. The Innokin iClear 30 line came close, but no cigar.

If you really think about it, how can you expect a couple of small silica string wicks in a clearo to keep up with the wicking ability of a big wad of polyfill completely surrounding a heating coil in a cartomizer?"

So...I decided to "take the jump" and try one. I got an IBTanked and...WOW!!! It gave me (in taste, TH and vapor) what I had been searching for (but didn't realize it) in my slowly fatiguing "next/best clearo" search.

[Sure...there's a small "learning curve". But if you're really into this vaping "hobby" trip...what have you got to lose by at least trying a cartotank???]

I went from carto tanks to Kangers to Aspires. I would agree about the carto tanks vs Kanger but these Aspire have as much if not more flavor, TH and Vapor than my DCTs did. JMHO

Plus, if you look around the forum, the "diapers" in cartos tend to burn fairly easily. Even before we can taste that they are. Not sure if that burned material is great for inhalation. Again, this is just my :2c:

Then there are the people that swear they can taste the filler in a carto. So, different strokes for different folks holds true with everything.
