Issue with mini nautilus base contact

[bob2nice]

Hi
I've bought a mini nautilus one month ago from MyFS and was very happy with it chain-vaping my all day, I only used one coil. I had to replace it only after 3 weeks of intensive vaping.
I continued inhaling a few tanks of my favorite with the second coil until it got stuck to the tank's central tube (it's normally screwed/attached to the base).
I managed to remove/unscrew the coil from the tank and replaced it with a new one, tried again. Nothing.
I tried my pipe-mod with an Aspire BDC and it works well: battery ok, pipe ok, allday ok, tank ok.
I presume something is wrong with the positive electrical contact on the base element of the mini nautilus (the one screwed to the battery contact) although it seems in good shape, yet moves slightly out of position. Maybe it does contact the coil anymore, or forces the protected battery to shutdown because of a short circuit.
Any experience like that ? clues ? fixes ?
Thanks!
Bob

Hello and welcome to the forum Bob. Glad to have you here!

What battery/mod are you using?

This happens to me also! Sometimes when disassembling to refill the juice the coil gets stuck on the inside of the tank. Whenever this happens I manage to get it off, but when I put the coil back in its place my battery blinks a few times upon firing, and thats all she wrote. The only way I've found to fix this is to put in a new coil. It pisses me off very much heh. I'm using a kangertech evod VV for a battery and the mini nautilus of course.

If anyone else knows why the coils are no good once they get stuck or a way to fix this issue PLEASE let me know. I had to trash a brand new coil after 1 day of use after this happened to me.

Thanks for your replies guys,

I tried both workarounds, I replaced the coil once again and attached the tank to a USB VV. Surprisingly the USB trigger doesn't flash, and the coil doesn't work. It seems that no current gets through the base

same problem solution to remove it is to boil it in hot water eventually it will come out its a hit and miss prop with this sometimes it works most times not,i believe it has something to do with the coil the first one had a screen new coils do not whatever prob is this has to be reconfigured the juice turns to glue like sub prob from heat and cold loluck with it iknow its frustrating as it stands its total garbage

Sounds to me it could be a connection issue in the 510 on the bottom of the tank. My suggestion would be to call Aspire, and hopefully they might replace it

If your pv does not show the coil resistance you need to get an ohm meter. Using an ohm meter you should be able to determine the resistance of the atomizer coil and/or the source of the connection problem, whether it is the coil/tank base/pv 510 connector.
OBTW, Welcome aboard

1:
So; I'm discerning that your power source is a mechanical mod - pipe mod - probably using an 18350 battery and no kick module.

Correct?

Could you elaborate on this part:

I continued inhaling a few tanks of my favorite with the second coil until it got stuck to the tank's central tube (it's normally screwed/attached to the base).

My guess would be center pin contact.

that's a strange one try it with a innokin vv or mvp the sticking is part of there problem with the coils

Is it an Authentic Nautilus Mini, did you check the code? Seen lots of dud clones going around so watch out!
