Can I add that I truly HATE my nautilus (and I even bought the stainless tank when I bought it, yes it was different orders) . This is only the second time I have used it. First time...MOV..Double Barrel. ..this time Ahlusion Figian Nights....oh my holy hell, all I taste is "metal". I truly hate it! $50 down the vape drain. Put Figian in my beloved SmokGBC...I dig it! Totally.
That sucks. Is nautilus a rebuildable? Did you dissasemble and thoroughly wash all parts? Cutting oil/rust preventing oil is all over these things when you first get them. Lemme google nautilus tanks real quick and I'll see if its maybe a mesh issue? I'm not familiar w/ them...

Googled it, it's like a protank kinda, bet you just need to wash it and dumpa ny liquid that was in it down the drain. Probably the atty head on it too. Take it all the way apart, and wash everything but the atty in soap and water, and then rinse it real good. soak that atty in vodka overnight and throw a fresh one in. dry the atty another24 hrs If that doesnt help, I dunno what to tell ya

I want a cheap rebuildable. Was thinking about the IGO-L... if I get a dripper, I don't want dual coil... but I'm not sure that I even like drippers. I definitely like tanks but the Kaifun clone I got was terrible.

Try a smok tech uda. under ten bucks, and the easiest thing I've ever rebuilt. No tools required.

No, it was supposed to be the end all to end all. The best vape ever with specialized non rebuilable heads. I hate it! Lol. When this semester ends...to the classies it goes. I got verified and all that jazz.
i hate premades. I strongly dislike the silo cartomizer that came w my vmod that I'd never used because its 2.2ohms and its a carto. Its better than a normal carto, but its not better than the hybrid atty. The silo is squonk friendly at least. Wish Jenna was up, bet she knows how to make these stupid 306 atties work right on a reo. Theres always some kinda clever trick to getting your vape gear to work right, lol.

never had that issue with either of my protanks

My protank was clean, but every other chinese topper including my aga-t2 was caoted in oil. When I first got my kraken, I washed it but didnt take the tiny set screw out of the deck. Just the tiny amt of oil that was in the threads ruined a whole tank of bug juice! I was so mad, I love ecto cooler:)

Should be able to just squonk an vape. Prime it a little maybe? They always tasted like burning poo juice to me.
Just get an rm2 already lol

I cant justify 45 for something that small and easy to machine/assemble. I think of this stuff in terms of gun parts. An ar15 lower reciever(part w serial number on it) is milled out of a block of solid aluminum and a good one stripped, just the housing, runs about 150-300. So a reo, milled out of a block of aluminum about the same size w about the same amount of machine time, I can justify. But someone has a cnc lathe spittin one of those rm2's out every 5 minutes, probably arent more than $5 to make... a gun part turned on a lathe that is as small as an rm2,(like a rail mounted sling sling swivel ) is about $10-20. I just dont agree with the price point on these high dollar rda's

50/50 seems to be my happy medium, lol. Good thick vapor, good rich flavor, medium TH, just how I like it. With companies like TPR or AHL, I just go with recommended or default ratio, I figure anything they suggest will be on-point.

I made a mistake and went with the "default" ration that popped up on AHL on my first order - 90VG/10PG and it took FOREVER to come together. It's not their recommended default, it's just how the page came up. On SOME of their juices, in their descriptions, they'll recommend a ratio, but what pops up when you order is not intended to be a default mix.

When I ordered from Plume Room a default percentage came up but I made sure it matched what it said below in the written portion that stated the suggested ratio... just in case. Mainly I checked because the VG seemed a bit high. Wanted to make sure that's what they recommended. Good to know about Ahlusion though.

Yes, but it broke because I clamped it too hard w the pliers when I was taking it back off after overtightening. It pinched the insulator inside. I took it off when it was really hot and then put it back on hot, so when it cooled down it was waayyy too tight. Totally my fault, same thing probably wouldve happened to the rm2. Operator error, lol. I dont think I'm a raw pro, lol. But when I can make/fix it myself, I always choose diy over the other option.

Lol, get over yourself, all I was trying to say is that you shouldnt blame not understanding things on bein a girl, I've met plenty of smart girls, so speak for yourself.
And now you see why I dont speak up when you're havin technical difficulties lol. You wanna call someone a know it all for trying to help others learn?

Get over yourself. My boyfriend laughed hard when he read your post where you thought I was implying that I feel women are not as brave, smart or capable as men as he has watched me, for ten years, prove to him that girls can do most things boys can. Merely mentioning that guys have a knack for the 'talk' of tools and such that chicks do not have or always understand. Thats all.
As for you not speaking up when I have diffulculties?? I am always thankful for the small things in life.

I couldnt believe that anyone agreed w chanel on this one myself, let alone other women?... What on earth would posess a girl to think that she cant be as smart as a man just because she doesnt have a frank and beans? Last I checked, those make it harder for us to think, trust me

The fact that you somehow deciphered that I said that girls are not as smart as boys astounds me. You really read things wrong dude and all I am saying is be careful that you do not shoot off at the mouth too often when you might not be reading things right. Your cockiness is attributed to your age I am sure but it can be offensive.
