Hi guys this is my first post and I'd like you're expert opinion on this.

I've been vaping for about four or five months no am thinking of upgrading my setup, I'm currently using an aspire bdc and ego c-twist setup but was thinking of getting the eleaf istick and a nautilus mini, is this a good route to go? having spent a few hours reading the forums it seems there is some controversy about the istick's displayed wattage, mostly over my head but it seems the advice is to just dial it back and most people seem to be delighted with it. Should i go for it and get the ileaf, which i presume i'd have no problems with paired with a nautilus mini or should i wait for a v2.0 or innokin v.3? btw I'm not into sub ohming, dripping or any of that fancy stuff... I just want a reliable setup that is easy to use, has minimum maintenance, but is a good step up from the starter kits.

Feel free to recomend an alternative setup, I am looking at a smok rocket and vamo v6 but am not sure if it is worth the price difference, especially when you factor in batteries and chargers.

Thanks in advance.

Get the leaf , I've got 2 and like them so much I'm thinking of selling off my 7 sigelei's my chargers , my MVP , and way too many Panasonic 18650s .........longevity is a wild card but I've been through 3 vamos, a SVD , a dozen egos and that's just in my recent memory .......everything is disposable ( exception being aprovari or rheo )...... my 2 cents psPS im currently liking the kanger genitank as a topper

You can't do better than an iStick with a Nautilus tank. The new BVC coils are fantastic. You might want to get a pack of regular Aspire BVC coils for your current BDC tank. You will be amazed with the flavor produced by the BVC coils. If you decide to get an iStick get one that has the ego adapter. The adapter is great for preserving the 510 connection on the iStick and you will be able to use either 510 or ego tanks.

The Isticks are flying off the shelves and are hard for vendors to keep in stock. I have 2 of them and I feel quite sure you'll be delighted with it.

Here's a few pics I took of mine to wet your appetite. I think it looks best with 19mm width tanks, especially the Nautilus Mini with the stock glass tank.

You are really asking very tough question.
Imagine someone asking:
Should I buy vodka?
Should I buy whiskey?
Should I buy rum?
It can generate a lot of advices, and quite different ones.
I do not have eleaf nor nautilus mini, but I do believe it can be a good upgrade regarding your current setup.
Anyway, if I want whiskey, but just have vodka, I’d be still reasonably happy.

It sounds perfect for you as you know it's limitations and will be able to make it work. I'd get one myself but have too many PV's and I'm gonna wait for my MVP's to quit working before I get a similar device.
