These BVC coils are amazing. I wonder how the Aero .8 will compare??? I just ordered a few.
ASPIRE Nautilus after 24 hours

Okay, nautilus now in hand and it has the plastic tray. Code checks out as authentic - no surprise there, I guess. The lettering on the tank seems pretty durable. I actually tried to scrape it off with my fingernail to no avail. The air flow control ring isn't nearly as nice as the one on the mini. I guess as long it performs well and doesn't leak, I'll be happy.

I find this statement interesting:
2) Paperboard: The packaging used within both the Aspire kits and the Nautilus models is comprised of a material termed as Paperboard, a kind of compressed cardboard. This material is made from recyclable materials, is of the highest quality and is marked with our logo to ensure the secure and safe packaging of our products. Due to both cost and the complex nature of our packaging, counterfeiters have opted to used plastic instead. This is a very important difference to look for in the packaging, and pictures of both original and imitations can be found in the product descriptions on this site.
I bought them when they first came out, before the cloners showed up and they had plastic trays. I'm wondering if this was something they implemented after their initial launch to differentiate, much like adding the second hologram starting in August? I got mine back in March. I emailed EIGATE let's see if I hear anything back.

I have two of the full size Nautilus coming this weekend as well. One from WorldofVape and one from MyFreedomSmokes. They say they are authentic on the website but will be following this thread to help with confirming authenticity.
Maraud-Same here. I got mine in January from a well-known vendor on ECF who swears their stuff is authentic and it has a plastic tray. I, too, am wondering if the paperboard was implemented later. My mini which came from 101 Vapes does have the paperboard. I will await your response from them...
I have switched entirely to the Nautilus Mini (I am also planning to try the full size units). Perfect size for me and the vape is excellent running 1.8 ohm at 9-10 watts.
I just ordered my first Nauti-but-nice mini from Mt. Baker. The owner went out of his way to assure me that it would be the real thing, and that they will guarantee it. I'm willing to pay a few extra bucks to know I am getting what I am ordering.
Today from EIGATE:
We just post that the Kit and the Nautilus Mini are using the paperboard. It is our worker's mistake to write the Nautilus Models, we have changed to Nautilus Mini, Thank you for the mention.
So the short version is paper board is only used I their tank/battery starter kits and the mini. So those of us with validated nautilus tanks with plastic need not be worried!

I've had nothing but good luck with the Nautilus. I've moved to RBAs recently, but I still have need of backup tanks, and for that I use the Nautilus - just a good consistent vape overall with really good production and flavor. Fortunately, it works well for my wife as well, who has recently begun vaping (quitting cigs finally). She had an issue with coughing, no matter what I tried (PG ratios, voltage, etc...), but when I had her try the nautilus she was able to vape without coughing. I'm assuming it has something to do with the Nautilus air flow and thickness of the vape.
Since Nautilus is working so well for her, I decided to pick up another two - found a GREAT site that currently has a blowout deal going - $17 bucks for a Nautilus tank!

Expires 8/31 according to the site, so if you want a Nautilus at a great price, check out that page.
I think the caughing thing is because people are too scared to start sucking some vapor down and getting used to it my dad does same thing takes small baby hits... I found when I first started vaping especially in the morning my first few draws I cough but then it goes away

That's the problem my wife had/has. She will take mini drags and cough, and I think out of reflex as I started her on 100%VG without flavor and 12mg nic? She's a pack a day smoker!
Yes, they are genuine. Grabbed two myself. I ordered the original Nautilus awhile back from that same seller.
interesting read through, this thread. I respect peoples concerns, but I would also caution, don't allow obsessive concerns get too raging.
the vape industry is rampant with clones, copies etc. It might be impossible to determine authenticity. heck, I go into my grocery store.. MOST of the products are imported now. not good, but unless I can start doing all my own farming etc, I have little choice, other than to read labels, do the homework etc.
the important thing is.. is the product working?
i have a couple of high end RTA's that are now my main devices, but I still keep my large and mini nautilus in my rotation. the BVC coils were a huge upgrade to the original BDC. I understand that learning how to actually rebuild the BDC's makes a huge difference. I saved mine for a later date with playing with rebuilding.
just wanted to caution folks that may make a mountain out of a molehill. not to trivialize the issue, but it might be almost insurmountable. if it works, and your satisfied.. vape on!

I did this as well. I finally found a really smooth flavor ('Nilla Custard) and it is my first vape.
Well call me confused but I sent an email directly to aspirecig.com to check on the trays and they informed me paperboard is only used on the mini and the full size kit that includes a battery.
