Hey guys...I'm not sure if this should be here but I honestly think it needs to be addressed. I just got the Aspire Atlantis and while I do like it, one thing needs to be pointed out for serious consideration before purchase. It doesn't even come close to the Nautilus, or even Kanger Aerotank and Genitanks, when it comes to mouth-to-lung hits. Both the Nautilus and the Kangertech products offer a WAY better vaping experience for these folks. If you're not a fan of lung hits, or have never tried it, this may not be the tank for you. Even at it's smallest airflow setting, there's not really a way to get a good mouth-to lung hit with this sucker.

For those not familiar with fundamental differences between these styles, I'll just say throat-hit and taste becomes a different experience altogether. I don't get a traditional smoking-type throat-hit when lung hitting. The flavor is enjoyed in a much different way as well. It seems to be more on the exhale that flavor is at it's peak. I'm a mouth-to lung hitter more often than not so I'm sure others can speak on the pluses and minuses of that practice.

I'm not, in any way, disparaging this product at all. It's an amazing, beautiful tank that is well worth the money. But folks should make sure they know what they're getting with this tank. If you're a mouth-to-lung hitter, definitely try before you buy.

Take care all!!!

I agree 100% with this post. I kind of knew what I was getting into but wanted to give it a try anyway as everyone seems to like them so much. I guess I just prefer a mouth-to-lung hit and am much happier using the Nautilus. The Atlantis is great for what it is - just not what I'm looking for in a vape.

This is ridiculously true and accurate. I'm not sure how it is south of the border, but up here at the local stores & vape meets *all* of us that sub-ohm lung hit, so the Atlantis works great for it and have never seen an issue, I think many of us forget there's other ways people enjoy vaping. The whole thing is personal preference, from flavours to power, to coils....the list goes on.
