They drive me nuts, too. So I've been looking for a good solution and think I've found it. I tried using needle top caps, but the darn things had such a tiny gauge needle that they drove me just as nuts. But yesterday I was browsing at One Stop DIY shop and found that they sell luer lock bottle caps for $.75:

I ordered 6 of those, then I ordered some 1/2" 18 gauge blunt tip needles, which they have for $.50:

They also have bottles with the luer lock cap and 18 gauge needle for $1.75. So I bought some of those, too:

Boston Round Bottles with Luer Lock Cap and 18g Needle - One Stop DIY Shop Store, LLC

I should have them in a few days and this will HOPEFULLY solve that problem once and for all. I'm sure juice will go through those needles easily, but if not, I'll just get some 16 or 14 gauge needles and use those.
The juice bottles we get from Derall work rather well on them, but you still have to be careful.

Can you go lower in ohms with them? .11,.12?
.06 is already half of .12 :) But yes you can run .11 and .12 but I would use 29g or 30g because it would need more wraps and you have a restricted space
ETA: The Evic won't fire a .065. You need to go up to .12-.15

Why not? I would use 29 or 30g ni200 to get 6-8 wraps on 2 to 2.5mm. for .12 or higher.
I've got stock TC coils for the mini nautilus. I was going to use one of those. :)

And all I have is 28 gauge Ni200... 8 wraps on a 3mm screwdriver is perfect for the ST Mini. ;)

I have a bunch of those, Gran, and still manage to get juice in the chimney. I think the bigger luer lock needle tops should do the trick, though. I can't wait to get them and try it out. This is the one thing that drives me crazy about the Airs. Other than that, they are the perfect tank.

That works out to what, about .12 ohms? You don't have the room for a 3mm coil in a GS Air head though. I like to use 2.5mm with the ST Mini to keep the wick size I prefer. To run .12 in a GS Air you probably can't build a narrow enough coil to fit. Maybe a vertical coil or use Ti wire.

The mini nautilus with a .25 ohm coil doesn't work on the eVic...:(
