Just received the new nautilus mini! HOLY crap is this little thing amazing! I thought it might be like a kanger tank,which I did like before I discovered the Kayfun lites.The mini his great,looks good on my vapor shark. Stock new coil reading 2 ohms,I thought they were 1.8, but whatever.using shark at 13.1 watts and the hit,vapor volume and taste are all just as good if dare I say better than my 1.5 ohm kayfun. I never would have believed it. Grim greens review is spot on.everyone should get one. I'm just wondering if new style coils will hold up. I'm so used to self wrapping I'm just a little skeptical. This thing rocks.my juice I'm using is a 50/50

I just ordered - finally the BVC coil which the mini uses and will also work in my Aspire full size as everything I've read about the new coil is great. Supposedly huge vapor and much longer life, without the burnt taste the BDC coils are famous for. I really hope they are as promised, so it's nice to hear you're pleased!

Satisfied is almost an understatement! I'm almost,we'll ok,I'm full on giddy over this thing .i was lucky, ordered from eBay Tuesday and got today.you will have to find your socks cause they will be knocked off! I am in zero way associated with this product,but they have a gold mine here enjoy!

That's great! I really like my big Aspire, but the BDC coils are in my opinion an epic fail! Here's to the BVC coils making my Aspire and me happy. Mine should be here Monday. I'll report back when I get them .

Maybe I should pick one up for hubby. He texted this morning that all his Kayfun's taste burnt. I'm in for a long night of rebuilding. I have a couple I need to work on for myself as well.

This why I'm on the quest for a trouble free clearomizer system. I just don't have the time to be rebuilding coils. Nor the interest either. Give me a system with coils that last, huge vapor and great taste and I'm a happy camper!

Just my opinion here, but I thought the exact same way you thought 2 months ago. I got a single coil RDA just to learn on, and honestly I will never go back to buying coils. Building a coil takes about 5 minutes, and you will get bored of it before it actually goes bad. Rewicking with cotton is simple and takes about 45 seconds every 2 or 3 days, or if you want to change flavors. Just a thought, give it a try.

Rebuildable is about as trouble free as you can ask for, and much more cost effective. 100' roll of Kanthal wire: $7 (each coil uses maybe 3 inches including the scraps you cut off) and a bag of organic cotton balls from CVS: $2.50 (should last an estmated 47.2 years!) Or just pay $10 for a 5-pack of coils and hope that at least 3 of them are good! :D

Sarcasm will get you nowhere! LOL

Maybe sometime I'll join the RBA bandwagon and that day may come sooner if the BVC's don't work but just call me an eternal optimist! Yes, call me that!

I remember when the orginal protank 1 came out and was described as a Viva Nova killer, then through a progression of other clearos the Aspire and Aerotank were released to (initial) great reviews and fanfare.

Now we have the Aspire mini, with it's vertical coils and batting wrapped around the outside of the coil like a carto. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Soon we'll have the Aspire foamy and the Kanger t-bag.

Glad you are enjoying it OP, finding that device that scratches the itch is the best vape feeling of all.

I totally understand wanting to buy a hassle free, well functioning clearo/tank system that you dont' have to fiddle with much. That was my mindset before I finally gave into buying a Kayfun and rebuilding my coils. I still desire that, but at the same time, I don't want to have to continue to buy new coils everytime it wears out or gets gunky, even if I can clean them and dry burn a few times to lengthen it's use. I will pick one up myself depending on how long people say these coils last after some time and heavy use, and the possibility of rebuilding a similar vertical coil inside.

Well, fingers crossed the BVC coils, which are in the air on their way to me from Wisconsin, will do just that. Last a long time and work with minimal fuss.

Sarcasm is a way of life! :D

Honestly I am not one to push rebuilding on anyone. I just know that when I was somewhat new on here, every other one of my posts I was saying I didn't have the time or desire to learn rebuilding. One day at our local b&m a guy showed me in about 3 minutes how easy it is and I have been hooked ever since! I also find it fun to try different builds and ideas. Check out this thread I started this week and see what you think...

I've got to agree with the OP. This mini is pretty sweet. I also believe the taste is spot on or even better than my KFL+ builds. Could be my builds, but I'm blown away! I'm not going to stop building but man... this thing rocks! Time will tell about durability and longevity. But for now, IMO, there's no better mass produced tank on the market to date.

I just saw them today on fluidvapes.com for $24.99 for anyone interested. I've purchased from them and they're legit. Fast shipping and pretty impressive prices on just about all of their stock. FYI.

I'm using my Nautilus Mini on a VaporShark as well.

I was lucky enough to find a B & M store that had 'em in stock.

They vape great, great flavor and tons of vapor production!

I don't feel it's quite on par with my Squape R, but it's damn close, and for times when I want to fill it and run out the door, this tank fits the bill!

If I'm going to be out of the house for a longer time, I'll still take my Squape R with me, but these Nautilus Minis are really sweet!
