aspire nautilus airflow help

[Subie07]

Hello everyone! This is my first post and yes i searched before posting haha! I have been vaping on some rda's for a year or so but I'm new to building coils and tanks. I just picked up the aspire nautilus and follow rip trippers rebuild for it. My nautilus is a single coil with cotton at 1.3 ohms on a smoktech magneto with a Sony vtc4.

I'm on the biggest hole on my aspire and it feels like I'm vaping through a hole the size of a needle! I have little airflow and want to know what could be the problem. I bought it from a store that knows a lot about vaping and he said it was okay to use my parrot e liquid in it but its a 80/20 if I'm correct. Could that be clogging it up or am I just so use to my massive air holes on my sub ohm rda's and so this feels small even though its fine??? Thanks in advance guys!

Your not making much sense . But maybe you got to much cotton?

It's probably just post RDA sickness. I remember the first time I went back to one of my tanks after using a wide open RDA for about a week. It felt like trying to suck a frozen shake through a straw.

sorry, im at work and still trying to post. i'll try to rewick it tonight. should i make my cotton shorter or not make it as thick in the coil?

 

[Subie07]

if i have post RDA sickness, is there a tank the has more airflow or am i just asking to much from a tank?

Eh, hard to say. I still use my tanks, it just takes a while to get used to going back and forth. I have a few genesis style tanks with drilled open holes that come darn close. Or you can use a Magma, which is this weird "almost a tank" RDA with a larger reservoir.

I'm having this same issue with a prebuilt coil from Aspire. Even on the widest airflow setting it's just like trying to drink an extremely viscous chocolate shake through a straw as mentioned above. Any ideas what the problem is?

I'm using the Nautilus on a BeyondVape Spire, the 1.8 ohm coil.

I've tried taking it apart and cleaning, but to no avail. I've tried the rebuild via RIP's video and that just made it worse (a wicking issue primarily).
