Been running my naut mini on standard battery for 2 weeks. Was running ok most of the time. Finally got a vv battery first time ever used one. I haven't gone over 4 v I'm getting no flavour. Flooding gurgling and spitting Took coil out was liquid underneath it dried it all out tried again no flavour. Now gurgling again. I thought vv would make the tank work better. What's going on ? Anyone help ?

I don't have a nautilus but have been reading a lot about them. You may need to turn up the voltage. It sounds like you are not heating the juice enough to vaporize it so each time you draw on it you are just adding more juice to the coil thus the gurgling. I have read that the newer bvc in the nautilus need more volts/watts to power them correctly.

Once you start flooding, instinctive reactions usually end up leading to more flooding.

Just keep voltage on the low side; don't make a point of raising voltage unnecessarily.

If the tank gets hot, it tends to flood.

If it floods and you find it's losing flavor so you turn up the voltage, it makes the tank get hot ----- more flood.

Set volts to 3.7 volts; that's the standard nominal voltage.

Thank you. I turned it down to lowest setting 3.5 left it for a bit. Fired it got a nice spit in the mouth but got the flavour back. So these don't run to good at high volts. Seems if you turn them up for as I thought more flavour and vapour you just get a burnt taste. Disappointed now maybe I should have just stayed with the standard battery. This vv wasn't cheap.

Turned air hole up full and it's working again loads of vapour. Just no flavour any ideas why?

Yes.

Once you get the vapor (provided it's not just too much power and you're just burning stuff), the flavor is there, but your tastebuds might just be overloaded from trying too hard.


Just keep that vapor going and take it easy; the flavor should come through.

Every setup has a sweet spot. Merely cranking things up more more more just goes past the sweet spot; you have to find the spot in the middle.

Yes it's the bvc coils. If I turn volts past 4 it taste really burnt. Read in another post if you screw coil in to lose it floods and to tight it won't wick properly. Maybe that's my problem ? Maybe I have coil in to tight. Though somewhere else I read screw it in tight. I keep going to thesmall hole to get more juice in then it floods. It's one extreme to the other.

So what volt do you think I should try ? Haven't gone over 4 yet. If it's not wicking properly will it just burn. Maybe I'm drawing to long. I draw 6 sec hold in mouth then inhale. I do tend to chain vape abit. With all the problems over last few hours not getting a proper hit getting desperate for some nicotine. Tempted for a cigarette now!! Don't want to haven't touch one for 18 months
