only had it 2 days. Having problems some hits are fantastic others I get gurgling and little vapour and throat hit. Could it be my battery I'm using a standard inno 650. Maybe it's not powerful enough for it. Fairly new to vapeing and tempted to go back to my dual coul evod. It's it worth trying a different battery ? Don't know much about different voltage etc. anyone help ??
Nautilus mini help!!

Angie.. Hi!
Yes, I'm afraid the Inno 650 is not going to power your mini nautilus very well.
I vape mostly at around 8 watts (imagine your battery with a 1.8ohm evod) but find myself using mini nautilus up at 11 or even more.
How is it when you have just charged up your battery?
I would suggest getting a battery with variable voltage if you want to keep using the mini Nautilus. I think it is the best clearomiser out there, but needs some power i.m.o.

Probably not the ideal battery, but it should work.
Which airflow setting are you currently using?
If you're not on 'max' airflow try moving up to a larger size hole, the increased airflow should help to slightly reduce the chamber vacuum inside the nauty and may help stop the 'overwicking' (gurgling) you're having problems with.

I'm with djs and xtwo. I'm thinking those eGo-style batteries output around 3.7-ish volts, and on a Nauti, that may not be enough. If my math is decent, that's only about 7.6 watts, and like djs, I run my Nautis around 10W or more.
However, you mention going back to your dual-coil evod.... If that's been running well, I would be a touch surprised that you can't get consistency with the Nauti.
Like xtwo comments, play with the airflow - I find that I adjust occasionally to compensate - especially for where my juice level might be in the tank at the time.
The other thing is, take the Nauti off your battery, and covering the airflow hole with your mouth, blow out. You might have some juice in the chimney which is causing the gurgle. I've had that happen a couple of times, and once I clear it out, it's much better.
Also, make sure that the coil is seated well in the base, and that all your connections are snug, but not overtightened. I think I read somewhere that a user hadn't set the coil properly and he/she was getting some gurgling and even leaking issues as a result.

Get a more powerful battery I have to vape mine at least 4.5 volts or it floods too
i have a nautilus on my MVP and i keep getting vapor in my mouth... any quick fixes out there?
Unscrew your coil and check for liquid in the bottom of the well it screws into. You can use a paper towel rolled to a point. Make sure it is dry then screw your coil make in tight but not too tight. That should fix your problem. A strong battery is also needed.
Is it more of a metallic taste? I know that when i change to a new coil on my Nautilus mini, i always get that funny taste for a little while, then it goes away.
You HAVE to let the BVC coils sit (when you use a new one) for a while to wick up juice. I'm talking like ten minutes and give it some primer puffs. Otherwise you'll scorch the wick material which is not so tasty at all.
I put a new coil in a Nautilus Mini the other day, filled it up and let it sit on the dining room table. My wife came in about five minutes later and took a big long toot on it at 17 watts before I could turn around and yell "NOOOoooooo!". Burnt wicking material, whole tank full of juice tastes gross, wasted coil. You gotta let them sit.
Personally I like to drip 3 or 4 drops down into the wicking material before I install the coil, then I let it wick for ten minutes and give it a bunch of primer pulls, just to be safe.

Depends how much you care about spending two dollars on a coil. Chances are if it tastes burnt its going to stay that way. If you burnt it really badly the juice in the tank might even retain some of that burnt taste/smell. I go through these coils like crazy but it's because I want a perfect vape every time. I'd rather spend $2 then spend time rebuilding a Kayfun or the like. That's just me.
You just need a variable voltage battery. Aside from that sounds like operator error somewhere in the mix. These tanks changed vaping for a reason. They're amazing.
This is exactly correct!
I've used a handful tanks in the past and the BVC requires more time than about any other coil to prime. While I'm waiting I take a few primer pulls every minute or so. Also while it is necessary to drop a few drops on a fresh coil if you drop more than like 4 or 5 you will flood the bottom hardware and liquid will begin leaking out of your air holes and you'll have a lovely mess to clean up.
But damn these coils vape like a dream. I get around 2-3 weeks per coil too.
Sounds like these could be clones - The Nautilus Mini is a pretty solid device IMO - Did you check the authenticity code? 
I found that coil life was fairly dependent on juices in addition to wattage - dark juices led to more coil gore and short life (in the case of one of my juices, about every 4 days). Note that I also tend to chain vape, so not much cool down time on the coil between pulls (each pull lasting about 4-5 seconds). The upside (downside?) is I started building my own coils
