I only wish that I had found the Nautilus tank before buying the other 6 or so tanks (protank 2, PT2 mini's, AeroTank Mega, ICiga Ninja, multiple disposables, iclear 30's etc etc etc.) it would have saved me a lot of money had I found the Nautilus tank first. It did leak one time, I never did find out what caused it, but I emptied it, cleaned it again and it's been bone dry ever since, it's the only tank that I have that does not spit at me. My AeroTank Mega is notorious for spitting at me if the weather outside is too warm, thus warming up the liquid and making it thinner, where as I can switch to my Nautilus tank that's been in the same weather and no spitting or leaking. It's a great tank for the way that I vape. The "half full" issue with the Mega doesn't bother me, I already accustomed myself to turning it drip tip down when I wish to see how much is really in it. Then when I see that the tank is nearly full, it satisfies me again.

I wish I could be on this bandwagon. I've got three authentic Minis. Bought them at the same time I bought two Aerotank Megas. I had an original assessment that flavor and vapor production was about on par with both, with a slight edge to the a BVC coil, based on what I predicted would be a matter of longevity (not having to replace the BVC coils as frequently as the new Kangertech coils).

After over a month of using both the Mini and the Aerotank Mega, I'm afraid I have to give the Mega the advantage. My BVC coils are burning up in a week's time, running only about 8.0 watts on a DNA30. The Mini spits juice and I've had problems with scratchy hits. I don't know how people are running BVC coils at high wattages. I'm using either 50/50 or 30/70 (PG/VG) juices, nothing out of the norm for dark or sweet. I clean my tanks, have taken them apart and inspected each component, so I'm confident at this point my opinion isn't based on user error.

Not that I think the Mini/BVC is a *bad* product and I'm sure there are opinions about the Mega that are less than favorable. But for the result I get from the Mega, I'd rather have to replace a Kangertech coil every 4/5 days knowing I will get the consistent vape I'm looking for than get an inconsistent vape from the BVC.

This is just my personal experience! You know how opinions are! Everyone's got one. :toast:

Your crazy the coils arnt supposed to last more then a week should be replaced every 3 days ago

After eight days on my first BVC I just went ahead and replaced it. Second coil is working fantastic. I'm a happy camper. I'll grab another mini and a full size here in the near future. I ordered a box of coils and the ss t-tank which I'm excited to get, hope the coils aren't duds like a lot have been for other folks.
 
It's a great vape for anyone who is looking for a clearomiser tank with a replaceable coil. Did you really have a question?

yes i was just sceptical on this tank because i hear everyone talking about it but no 1 was really giving a decent review on it... but as now im seeing here alot of people are having ether really good or really bad experiences...

My self i use alot of kanger tanks,

but i might look at picking one up

I don't feel like going back and finding them all, I'm on a phone, but I have posted in many Nautilus threads where people were complaining about dud BVCs in the past week or so.

Only issue I have had with my full size Nautilus is trouble with getting the tank off of the metal base when it needs filled. That bugger stays on there tight. I started using latex gloves wrapped around the base and glass tank and twisting. Still very difficult, but it has been a great tank.

What I do is tighten til it stops then back it off about a 1/4 turn. I haven't had a problem yet since I started doing it that way.

Supposedly flooding and the dreaded burnt taste we all hate.
I have been using them for 3 weeks on 2 minis and 2 regular nautilus tanks. No issues at all. No complaints from me.

I got one... deals and steals thread had a coupon... ended up costing me $24 with shipping.

I had the regular aspire nautalis - and it was okay - a little big... but it worked well.

Some juices I have would taste better in a tank, so I got another aspire, because for the price... they are an acceptable deal... not as good as a kayfun ;-) etc.... but between decent and good.
