More information... What exactly is the poor performance you are experiencing? Power settings? Ratio of PG/VG in juice? Mod? Etc...
No throat hit very little vapor vv spinner like device. Evod on same battery lots of vapor a lot more substantial throat hit almost like a more filling vape. It's a 50 50 blend going in both tanks

Could use some more info to better understand, but I never liked mine. I used it on different mods, tried different coils and different juice. We just never clicked. Same issue with the full size. They just aren't for me.
Funny the evod felt more filling if that makes sense nautilus seems airy and lacking substance. What tanks have you found you like. I've tried the pro tank 2 and like it a lot but disappointed with the nautilus. Which slot of people seem to like

I don't know which VV device you are using but when I used one I could turn it all the way up and still not utilize the potential of the Nautilus. My experience with the Spinner 2 and the Nautilus was just ok at best. Once I got my iStick the Nautilus really shined. In my opinion you're underpowered for the Nautilus.

I've tried it on different mods and always felt it was lacking. It's prob I'm just disappointed for spending the money and looking for solutions. I just don't want to believe I'm getting better results on a 3 dollar evod. Lol again it just comes down to personal preference the evod also seems to sip juice compared to a guzzle. But again it's more fulfilling th taste etc..

The coils you got with the nautilus probably need more power than what you are powering it with

I agree. 100%.

Let me put it this way. I bought 2 x mini Nautilus at VapeFest 2014. Within 2 days my Spinners were retired to the drawer of no return.

I got them out yesterday for a nostalgic trip with some mini Protanks.

The Spinners (ego VV/VW) have an amp limit. This means when you reach that limit, it will not go higher. The "maths" (math) says you are vaping a 1.6/1.8ohm coil at 4.8v making a certain wattage... but the Spinner is maxing out at less than what it should be.

I retired my 4 nautiluses about 9 months ago. They're sitting in my vape gear graveyard full of stuff i bring out every now and then to loan to someone who is thinking about starting up.

I always liked the nautilus but found the flavor just ok in it. Liked the atlantis much better.

My fiancee likes tight draws as well. Lately she has really been enjoying the kangertech genitank. It got a tight draw and pretty decent flavor.

My nautilus was what got me off the analogs. It's great for that, but after you get past that point it's time to move on to something else. I had mine on a spinner and ran it @ 4.2V. It was as high as I could go without getting a dry hit. Used the 3rd air hole and double puffed it like nobody's business. Lol!
