Neither are BVC heads for the nautilus.

Eigate does not make authentic 2.1 ohm for the nautilus yet. There are some clones out there.

Holt 7153 Aspire Nautilus [3] 5 pk. is a great deal.Sweet vape sells them for [1] 5 pk.10.95.I got my Nautilus mini there.Heads up,just be carefull when you buy the coils from Ebay,Make sure you have the right kind before you buy them.Ask ECF if your not sure.I love my mini on my Eleaf Istick.Happy vaping.

Sweet-Vapes sells the regular ( not Nautilus) BVCs for $8.95 per pack. The Ebay listing is for the regular BVCs :)
The Ebay listing includes shipping so is the better deal though.

Well after following this thread I ordered an istick yesterday. I can deal with any rough pwm it may or may not have. I'm mainly intrigued with the small form factor combined with very decent battery capacity. I'll be interested to see Busardo's usual overly long and theatrical vid only so I can see it scoped but the real proof will be the end user (me) experience. For 30 some $$ wth?

Truer words were never spoken.

One thing that strikes me from this thread, if this APV catches on as it appears to be doing, the manufacturers may go back to building higher ohm replacement coils. A small mod capable of higher power negates the necessity for low resistance toppers. A 2.0Ω to 3.0Ω topper will work perfectly well with a couple simple button pushes to adjust it to your taste.

You are right about that. I think that many people do not understand the fact that LR was only created to give vapers a high voltage experience with a low voltage ecig. They were introduced so that folks could get a warmer vape on an Ego. People that have VV/VW mods really should not need LR.

Still haven't gotten mine yet and the tracking hasn't moved. Emailed seller and to my Suprise they called me to tell me I wasn't the only one this has happened to from packages that went out Monday. If my istick isn't here by Monday they will send out a new one she said. ...

Thanks for the update. I'm guess I'll email them tomorrow if it isn't in the mail. Still wondering why I didn't even get a tracking notification,... even if it doesn't move!

I can't help myself:facepalm: Running 1.2-1.5 coils on it :vapor::evil:

Got mine earlier today. Ordered it 5 PM Monday from vapeNW off of feebay. Happy with the shipping time. So far it's what everyone says it is.

Works great with a Kayfun with a microcoil/cotton build.
As far as my protank3, that has a 1.5ohm dual coil in, I'm getting a burnt taste at its lowest setting.
When I put on a kanger T2 with a 2 ohm coil on top it performs well and reads 4.5 watts at 3 volts.
It definitely has its limitations!
Fit and finish is spot on. very nice.
So............I guess it is what it is. I don't think I'll be buying another one right away. I'm going to wait and see if eleaf addresses this issue and hopefully comes out with a revised model.

Hi, I 'm a little confused.I have a Nautilus mini tank that I just received.It says to buy 1.8 or 1.6 BVC Nautilus coils for it.Could someone tell me where I could buy these at a good price? Thanks

Right, there's several links right here in this thread, but the ones in that ebay auction do not say NAUTILUS.

You must buy NAUTILUS BVC coils, NOT Aspire BVC Coils.

My liquid's not burning :blink: 1.3-1.5 ohm coil :) Maybe your wick isn't producing as fast as you're vaping. I'm a chain vaper myself :evil: All's good :evil: What's the build on the Kfun?[/QUOTE
Build is 1.4 ohm, 28 guage kanthal microcoil/organic cotton wick. It's not burning at all and has much vapor! What you are saying makes sense to me. Those little wicks on the protank3 are not designed for a fast flow like a kayfun.....

They will keep up if you rebuild and use rayon:vapor:

For those who might be a bit more visual......

For now there are only two versions of the Aspire coils.

The Aspire NAUTILUS coils come in a vertically printed box. Only 1.6 ohm and 1.8 ohm are available (now).

The Aspire NON-NAUTILUS coils come in a horizontally printed box. ;) 1.6, 1.8, and 2.1 ohm available.


I am having a VERY difficult time reading this thread. Why? Cuz I don't have one yet!!!!!! Soonish, I hope. You guys are just making me drool with all the talk of how good these are. I'm in the waiting game (think "group buy")...

Eggs-actly. And I do hope that Aspire jumps in with some higher resistance coils for the Naughty and Mini Naughty.


Haven't been to Connecticut yet, but always wanted to!


Sigh.... me as well.........

Believe it or Not. You can use ANY Wattage you want and you will Never get a Burnt Taste if the Wick can Supply e-Liquid to the Coil Fast Enough.

I Can use the 220v Heating Element from an Electric Stove to Vape with. I would just need to have a Beach Towel sized Wick to do it.

Burt Taste Isn't a Product of Too Many Watts. It's a Product of Not Enough Wicking/Air Flow.
