Nautilus mini 1.8 bvc vs 1.8 clapton watts?

[Swampus]

Hi, New to all this, so hence the dumb questions..Please If in wrong place please direct me, thanks.
I am wondering what are safe wattage ranges for these 2 coils and does the Clapton require a higher setting than the bvc? it seems the ohm's charts get thrown out the window when vaping, as the recommended wattage is way to low to get any vapor and minimum setting is 7w on my unit. Thank you.

Claptons generally require more power because they're thicker.

I recommend the Vape Tool phone App, it's really easy to use and tells you the sweet spot
for your coils when you go into the coil calculator tool.

I'll check it out thanks.

Start off at a low power setting and gradually work your way up taking a vape or three on each setting until you find what you like.
Be sure to thoroughly prime a new/unused head.

If you get a hot, harsh, dry or burnt taste turn it down.

I use a nautilus bvc between 12w ~ 18w with clear non sweet 50/50 liquids.
I didn't care for the clapton bvc's, but, the same applies to every delivery device combo, start off low & work your way up.

I'd be surprised if they work well under 20 watts. The Triton version is listed 40w or something (mostly, I think they make these numbers up to sound cool) and it's got to be the same technology.

I vape standard 'large hole' BVCs (which is all the new ones) from 12-16 watts.

Thanks, I turned it up to 14w and the Clapton is doing much better, and it took a lot of the harshness out of the juice.
Still not sure if any better than the bvc. (too new to tell)..will have to try that at the higher wattage as well.
I also never thought it could go as high as 18w, because of the voltage marking on the coil of 5v.
So I can go higher than 5v..within reason?

I often find my volts up above 5 with a regular BVC coil. Just go up steady and be 'aware' of the flavor and vape quality.
I thought about trying some Clapton premades, but the mini Nautilus is my day-to-day MTL tank and eventually you run out of 'top end' power for MTL. (i.m.o.)

I can go up to about 14 tops on a BVC , i prefer the vape around that range so it works .

Thanks all..Now I gotta set my other tank up with the bvc and run the watts up and see if it helps with some of that harsh Vape Wild juice and couple others I didn't like.
Also thinking the Clapton should be able to handle more wattage than the bvc's. (both 1.8), but will increase slowly.
