Has anyone else tried the New Aspire Nautilus Mini BVC? Your thoughts...

[WhatupFoo]

I still have 2 aerotanks and a kayfun nano , i hate the aerotanks but i love the nano i hope i like more the nautilus vs the aerotanks.. On the nautilus mini the only difference is coils and smaller tank size right from the regular 5ml one right?

You're going to love the Nautilus. Yes, smaller size and better coil is the only difference. And from what I've read, the adjustment ring for the air holes is firmer on the Mini, which is a good thing as it's looser on the big one.

rbrylawski nailed! differences are 1) capacity, 2) BVC coils 3) Air flow ring is tighter.. I'm actually thinking the 4) is airflow in general. the mini seems to have more air flow overall. but negligible difference

Is this the coil?

Could be....hard to tell from that picture. The BDC and BVC look similar on the outside but they do differ in that the BDC has two slits on the lower end and you see wicking from each slit. The BVC has circular holes. (4 I think) and you don't see the wicking.

Do u have any pics of the bvc? I just got this one but im doubting this is the one

After reading this thread, I can't wait for my rDNA to get here tomorrow so I can bump up past the 11W I'm currently running the Mini on. Picked up a Protank 3 as a backup and I'm afraid it's never going to get used, lol.

Sorry I don't have any spares with me. When I used the BDC's I always had extra with me because the needed to be replaced so often. But the BVC's are so stable I no longer need to worry about a midday replacement.

Just Google Aspire BVC coil and you'll find images out there.

Actually I googled a picture for you:

That's OK. I have a one week old Kanger Mega that is home alone too!

This is a BVC I just removed from my emptied Mini

 

[WhatupFoo]

Yeah that doesnt look anything like what i bought

 

[XBarbarian]

ya, the holes for wicking are bigger on the BVC's I believe. its cool.. use the ones that came with it until you get some BVC's

The box of coils (there are 5 coils in a box) would be clearly marked BVC on the box.

Appreciate ur help mate! [emoji106]

 

[XBarbarian]

the b&m sales person might not know the difference, because the older BDC's work in both, too. but as rbrylawski pointed out, the BVC's are clearly advertised as such
