Ours are both great, stock coils failed on both after 2 days, our fault.
The coils really need to be left for 10 mins and to be honest I over primed both too to make sure they had enough juice in them.
These cannot be dry burned so if you treat them as your would a cotton build that might work for you.

I've never dry burned them, left them for half an hour as advised on the instructions with them, even tried leaving for an hour, half a day, etc, etc still no different. I bought coils from 2 seperate vendors (both known and with good reputations on here and elsewhere - still no different). The nautilus seems to be a hit or miss device - i have read roughly equal amounts of glowing reviews and awful reviews.

Got me puzzled now. I dry burn all my nautili heads between flavours without issue. They're silica wicked.

Also I don't understand why peeps are still using the BDC coils. Switch to BVCs guys, give your nautilus a new life.

BVC are the ones that came with my mini Nautilus. I also have some on the way from FastTech.

Where does it say? or if it doesnt say on the pack does that mean they are BDC? I'd give BVC a try to see if it improves things before my nautilus is condemned to the drawer of death.

These new heads have polyfill batting surrounding the coil and cant be dry burned anymore than you could dry burn a carto.. sorry.. when they are finished, they are finished..

Normal Nautilus coils are BDC, there are only a few places selling the new BVC coils at the moment, available from the usual suspects, UKECS, myepack, possibly C9V & Cloudstix

On the back of the box, where it gives 'contents': 1 - replacement (BVC) Atomizer

From what I can see, the cheapest UK price is myepack at 1.80 each if you buy 5.

All Aspire products come with a scratch and authenticate code, please check.
As doots said, that's why they can't be dry burned.
Haven't tried the BVC, will be trying them next as I only got 10 BDC replacements. Didn't know at the time that the Nautilus took both. :(
Again, I have to say I'm very happy with it, it's the best 'non-rebuildable' I've had.

Just an update, my BDC coil lasted just over a week on custard, happy enough with a week tbh. :)

I thought best not to try Custard, so I've just loaded up my Vapefest Custard haul into a KFL with Rayon wick.

(Not actually vaped custard for over a year and a half....)

Sounds good though Steve. :)

I got my BVC coils from vape escape this morning. I'll stick one on this week and fingers crossed it makes the nautilus useable.

If it doesn't, either you are the most unlucky vaper ever, or are just odd. :)

I love the BVCs. I never even bothered with the other (old, BDC) one. If one of the most experienced vapers in the business got a "bad vape" off them, they were clearly dodgy.

Hey guys, have a question about the new nautalis BVC coils. So I just purchased a Mini and I really like the flavor/vapor production. Actually the best I've had to date (I don't build)...only problem is that I feel as though the vape is very wet. I'm kind of getting burst of liquid in my mouth, but not the burst your thinking of. I'm not getting hot nasty juice in my mouth (no flooding), it's more of a feeling of spraying tasty juice. Now while it tastes OK, I'm kinda getting the feeling that I'm getting juice in my mouth and not sure if this is good not, or if it's just how this thing vapes. I also notice that after an hour or so of vaping, if I blow out the drip tip on a paper towel, the condensation that comes out is the color of the juice. I'm just nervous that I'm getting juice in my mouth and not sure if this is safe or not. Now I know the difference of having a flooded atty and getting hot juice shot at you...this is not that. This is more like bursts of wet liquid crystals exploding in my mouth...but they're kind of wet if that makes sense. Is this happening to anyone?
