Those are ProVari's in that picture. They're both 18650's and they're 1/8" taller than a Vaporshark rDNA. What's not compact about that?

By reputation, I got a Vapershark rDNA30 back in the day and now have two rDNA40s. All three are doing well. One thing, is that the outer cover gets scratched pretty easily. The have silicone sleeves. They can be colorful.

I also have a VS rDNA40 Flask which is my out and about, all day vape with its dual batts. I have a Provari and a Reo, but, each has its purpose.

Getting a Provari 2.5 blemish and paying for the extension is what I did. The others are above $100. But, I believe quality leads to a quality vape.

Have used the Nautilus on: MVP 1, 2, 20 watt, and 3, the CoolFire IV, the Subox mini, iStick 20 and 30, the VaporShark rDNA 30, the ProVari mini and the Radius. Have more recently used the Nautilus mini on the Endura T18. At all times the Nautilus delivered......just wish I could rebuild the danged coils! Ha! :)

Thanks for all your input. Was going to get an MVP , but my buddy just offered me his Provari 2.5 and Nautilus for $100. Not entirely a great deal, but not way overpriced either. He's including the batteries, but more than likely I'll be buying the 18650 extension. I'm actually excited to be down scaling. I guess I've grown out of dripping.

Heya @RebornLincoln06! I've never tried a Provari (so I neither love them nor hate them), but I have a couple of Nautilus and Nautilus Mini tanks. I run them on everything I have (except for my old iTaste VV3 - I mostly don't like the "top-heaviness" - although the Mini isn't too bad on there.)

I have iSticks (30s and a 50), iPV Mini2, Cloupor Mini+, eVic VTC Mini, a Vamo V6, and a few mechs. Nautilus works great on all of them. I'm usually between 10-11.5W, even with the 1.6Ω BVC atty.

So, really, the "bottom" is (IMO) less critical, as long as it can support the "top". If you like a Nauti, pretty much anything out there will drive it :)

I heard you can't own just one :). Blow all your cash and get it done, OP!

I'll stick with this one for now lmao. It's the black going into the red finish, which is absolutely beautiful. I'm going to see how it fires first. And who knows, maybe I'll end buying a P3 or a Radius. Or something else if better comes out lol.

Just a note though... Don't even bother with the "Nautilus Coils" anymore, jump right into the Triton Mini coils... they work wonderfully, are more accurate, and offer a slightly more open draw due to the larger coil. They have them in 1.8 Clapton, .15 Ni200, and a standard 1.2 Ohm Kanthal.

Hope this helps! :)
Wow, never heard of those before! I'll have to do some reading and try them someday!

Yep! They were released with the Triton Mini :) I have the Clapton, and Ni and they are working wonderfully! Much more accurate than the old ones too.

*Please do NOT turn this into a Provari hate thread!*


So I'm seriously debating getting a device that puts out less power than what I have right now. I'm currently running a Sigelei 150W with a Smok TFV4. I don't know if I'm just getting tired of the same setup or if I'm just ready to scale down, but I'm really debating getting another setup with a Nautilus tank.

I'm about to get a lot of money coming my way, and was probably going to get a Provari because I've always been pretty fond of them. However, I would of course want a more cost effective mod that works just as well.

What do you think I should roll with? I would like it to be compact but it's not necessarily a deal breaker.

Thanks in advance!!

I have three mods and expecting a fourth next week

Cloupor Mini Plus
eVic VTC Mini
Istick60tc.

Love my eVic and Istick.

The mod is OK. Just don't trust the battery door it seems way too wobbly.

The doors on the other mods are rock solid.

And the Triton Mini coils fit in the nautilus? I will try anything to make an already amazing tank even better :)

+1 to the eVic VTC Mini. Picked one up the other day for something small to use for work and the thing is great. If you're looking for a compact mod then the VTC is the way to go in my opinion, I've only used the Tron tank mine came with the it but I'm sure everything else will work like they are supposed to since it goes up to 75w. TFV4 is the only tank that I use at higher wattage than 75 but I'm sure it will still work pretty dang good, might just look goofy!

I tried a few different mods way back when. Each failed rather quickly. Could of just been bad luck on my part. Who knows. I saved for a provari and it was great but I needed something smaller that I did not need to change batteries all day. So I got a vs. That was great but also started to fail. Went back to my provari and it still ran like a champ. Now I have saved for the radius and now I have the size of the vs with the reliability of a provari. Just my two cents.
