Again with this garbage that makes me want to go back to smokes. I got a new pack of bvcs along with new e juice. I put moo juice in the nautilus and I wait 5 minutes, I go to vape it and I get a burnt taste I assumed the coil was dry so I took it apart and the bvc coil was stuck in the metal tube that leads down through the ejuice glass tank, I removed it and screwed everything back together and waited 5 minutes and dry puffed it without the power button on trying to get ejuice into the bvc, idk if its still dry but even after an hour I get no taste of the ejuice, just kind of burning ejuice yet the vape clouds are fine, what is wrong, this is making me in such a fit of rage after an hour and this is the 2nd time it happened

The genuine Aspire BVC coil has "BVC" laser etched on the side of the coil body. You might have to use a magnifying glass to read it. Yes, there are fakes out there. Watch out for Ebay vendors.

The blanket inside the Nautilus head is pretty thick. The instructions say to install it and wait 5 minutes for the juice to soak in. I always put several drops of juice directly into the top of the head and wait for each to soak in. Then, I fill the tank and set it aside for the 5 minute soak period. Burnt flavor is either a dry wick or an actual burning of the juice on the coil. Once that happens, it usually doesn't go away unless you can wash it out and dry burn it.

If you can't salvage it, prime up another head and try again. Talk with your vendor about replacements for bad heads. So far, no one has really revealed a problem with the BVC's, but anything it possible.
 
Like many have said is that it can be a hit or miss thing. A bad batch of the heads were spotted but that was in the beginning . I've had good luck with them since but they do last for about 5-7 days depending on how you vape it can be longer . I'm on sick leave for a wile and vape all the time now and they last about 4-6 days . I would say prime the head with a couple of drops then assemble the tank but only snug not like real tight . My wife had the same problem with the heads sticking when she took it apart and it was because of the way she tightened it not the coil itself . There is a very small learning curve with these but then that is true with so many other things too . I vape with a mini on a 18350 battery in a k-101 mech mod . It will vape awesome until 3.6 volts then you know it would be good to just pop another battery in it . Hope you have better luck , there are great vapes and sometimes you will get a dud but that's with everything .
