Hot Vapor

[JT Cheeba]

Whats up everyone, first post. Have had my MVP for about 3 weeks with nautilus (Sadly, I just dropped it and smashed the tank..) and I've been trying to figure out the watts. I like the amount of vapor I get at 10 or 11 watts but it is always unbearably hot and burns my throat. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong? Tried multiple juices and theyre 3-6mg of nic I don't think its a nic throat hit. Let me know! Thanks

Hi JT and welcome to ECF!

Well, I guess the first thing I would suggest it that you try to vape at lower watts and see how that goes. If you miss the vapor production you might appreciate the lower heat and the lower pain level.

OTOH, if you need the vapor production let us know and I'm sure other folks will be able to help with that.

Sorry to hear about the Nautilus! Vape on my friend

The vape being to hot and harsh, you may be set to high on wattage output, open up your air flow regulator to the next widest open or even all the way wide open. The extra air flow should cool things down and decrease the scorching hit. If it is still scorching lower you wattage to around 9 watts, get a thinner juice, ie if using 30 PG 70 VG drop to a 50/50. But what you are describing sounds to me like lack of airflow and wicking is to slow, so a combination of 2 problems compounding upon each other.

welcome and hello.
sorry to hear bout your tank....
good luck seems like your problem has an answer............

Thanks all, what has me confused is how some people can use a box mod at 50+ watts and I'm getting my throat burn with the biggest air hole? Is that because rebuildables can fire at far lower ohms?

 

[IMFire3605]

Airflow is designed for more advanced airflow control.

The second thing is very few can do above 20 to 25watts when using a tank other than a modified Genesis Class, Aqua Class tank. Most rebuildables up at 50 watts and higher are generally drippers with huge air flow to rip straight to the lungs which creates a lot of airflow to keep the coil cool, most other Clearomizers like Nautilus and even Kayfun class RTA rebuildables are designed for more gentle mouth to lung hits.

im new(ish) but im running a nautilus mini and i run mine at 10.2w (4.3v with 1.8ohm atty's) what ohm atty's do you use?
try using a larger air hole (more air to cool the vapor but still a good hit) also try popping a longer drip tip, a long steel drip tip will also cool your vape down without loosing any of your hit)
failing that really lower your watts and see if you can enjoy a cooler vape that way

I'm not sure the ohms on the nautilus but I assume somewhere around 2?? I had the largest air hole as well. I think i'll just need to turn down the watts! Thanks guys

 

[Cowboy192]

if you are using the coils it came with its most likely 1.8ohms

For some flavors, like tea flavors, I like a warmer vapor to be honest. But, I'd probably up your airflow or lower your voltage, or up your resistance.

Cheeba, you can find the ohms of your coils on the MVP 2 by pressing the "P" and the "U" buttons at the same time. The first number that comes up "A" will be your ohms. The second number will be what's left of your battery.

Your only solution would to be to drop the wattage since you are already open at the highest setting so you can't get more airflow.

Everybody is different. I used to vape my nautilus with BVCs at 17-18 watt since I felt like anything under 15 watts was too cool and weak on vapor production.
