Hi I have a question about my Nautilus tank. Pretty new to this tank.
I have had it for about 2 weeks and am on the first atomizer. Recently I am getting some bad vaping results. I am using it on both the iStick 30 and Aspire CF VV. The tank sometimes does not hit when I press the button. It is like an airy flavored draw with little to no vapor production and it makes me cough almost every time this happens. It may happen 1-3 times in a row then fires back up at full speed. Is this a sign the atomizer is going bad? I would guesstimate I have refilled the tank about 10 times. It is 2 weeks old. I am using a light color 50/50 juice. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated

2 weeks on the same coil sounds about right. Change it up, if it still behaves in the same way, you know it's something else.

The symptoms you describe could be any number of things, only way to know for sure is to change the coil and go from there.

When you do change it, examine the one you remove. If you notice scorching or any burnt marks in the cotton / ceramic head, you might want to change them a little more frequently - they're only $2 a piece and you'll get a much better flavor and overall vaping experience changing them more often.

Thank you all. Should I save the atomizer for any reason or toss it?

Some people try to clean them by soaking in alcohol or save them with a view to rebuild them later. I've stopped rebuilding clearomizer coils as I really cannot be bothered - but that is just me. Put them in a ziplock bag for later if you want.
