Aspire Nautilus/Mini watts?

[WonderDude32]

Just wondering what wattage everyone that uses one of these tanks vapes at. I know what is recommended by Aspire but is anyone outside the box with this? I'm currently using a 1.8 coil (ran out of 1.6s which I prefer) and just can't seem to find a good setting for this coil. This is weird to me. I used the one that came with the tank and don't remember having this problem. I'm just not loving the flavor. I don't have vaper's tongue either.

On the BVC 1.6 I use 8W
On the 1.8, 7 to 7.5W.

100% VG juices.

I use the 1.8 coils at 20 watts, and I use the 1.6 coils at 18 or 19 watts. I feel like I get great flavor and vapor and the only time I get dry hits are when the tank runs dry. I love these things, but I wish they had a liiiittle bit more airflow. After about a week the coil gets gunked up and It's like sucking milkshake through a straw.

I've tried every suggestion posted here and keep going back to lower wattage. I'm using 12.5w and it's ok. Not warm and still good vapor/flavor. I appreciate all the posts. It was most interesting to see what everyone else runs on.

I ran mine at 12.5 watts. Airflow wide open, and I had drilled out the largest hole a little bigger. I have not used mine since I started using sub ohm tanks and my next door neighbor will be taking possession of it and a new iStick 50w tomorrow. I will see if I can help to get her off the analogs.

I have several Aspire Nautilus Mini's. Had issues till I learned about the coils. Some of the coils had small holes in the side where the juice flows into the coil. These SUCK! They are the original coils that Aspire used. They have since made the holes larger. If you get coils with small holes they are either old stock or clones. You may have coils with the smaller holes no way to fix this unless you rebuild the coil then you can make the hole bigger. I tried the hole maker they sell it just crushes the casing and ruins the coil.

I also drilled the larges air hole larger in all my Aspire Mini tanks which made a big difference. The drill I used was a #35. There are videos on youtube that talk about this.

It depends on what juice I'm using. One of my juices produces the best flavor at about 7.5w, another one produces the best flavor at 11 to 11.5w Both juices and wattages for them produce pretty anemic vapor production but the flavor is there. Just a matter of dialing in the correct wattage for your coil head and juice.
