Question about Aspire Nautilus Coils

[yamezbond]

Hi there! I just got my smok Alien 220W, which I was testing with my Aspire Nautilus Mini tank. I usually use this Nautilus Mini on my iTaste MVP 3.0 between 10w to 16w depending on the coil, however I try this on my new SMOKE Alien and it seems that it doesn't work on that wattage range, however I have to increase the wattage to 54w to get a decent amount of smoke. Is there any difference on wattage between these 2 mods?
I haven't test the TFV8 Baby tank yet, since I was on a hurry.
Thanks!

Ah, something is really wrong if you need 50W on a Nauti coil. Mostly because 50W on a Nauti coil will turn it to ash. Do you have another tank you can try to see if it works correctly? And are you sure you're in wattage/power mode?

 

[Topwater Elvis]

Be sure you're using power/ watt mode when using the nautilus, not any temp control mode.
54 watts would almost instantly cause the bvc head to burn possibly go up in smoke.
Might be a chance your alien is malfunctioning.

Yes I'm on watts mode, when I see the screen is on W. I include this 2 pics the one is at 15w it fires but no smoke and the second one is at 50w it works ok. Do I have to adjust the oms?? I will try the TFV8 Tank later tonight and see how it works

Where are you getting Nautilus BVC coils that read .4 Ohms? I can only find 1.6Ω and 1.8Ω for mine! When you installed the tank did it ask the question "New Coil" Yes or No?

 

[SteveS45]

Also as far as I have ever known you should not push too far past 12 watts for the Aspire BVC coils.

I got them on Ebay, when it was asking me for the coil I select that is old coil. since it bhas been on my other mod for about 3 days now.

Did you authenticate them with the scratch off code? Like I said I never heard of Aspire BVC coils at .4Ω!

I just did and it say that code has been check it 1 time, it seems that is a clone?

 

[Topwater Elvis]

Authentic aspire heads for nautilus only come in 1.6 & 1.8.
There are some available from other sources that have Ni200 coils in them.
I've had several 5 packs usually .3 - .4 if I'm not mistaken another member found some .15 Ni 200.
Should have a different color insulator & o ring than the normal white ish.

Remove the nautilus then put it back on, press yes when asked if new coil.

I do not understand what it returned when you checked the code would be so kind as to clarify what it said?

 

[yamezbond]

Also I add the TFV8 tank that came with my Alien and it seems to work ok at 28w and Soft if I put it at 50w like other guys on the youtube reviews is to hot... however the amount of smoke cllouds on 28w is amazing!

When I check the code on the Aspire website for the coils I purchase on Ebay it said that this code has been checked once and it warn you about clones

If you are getting smoke out of your MOD you definitely have to lower the power~!

Regular Aspire Nautilus coils are 1.6 and 1.8ohms. The TRITON MINI coils can be Ni200 0.2ohm, Clapton 1.8ohm, and I believe kanthal 1.2ohm. The Ni200 coils have red insulators; the Claptons have orange, and the 1.2's are the same standard white as the 1.6 and 1.8 ohm coils. I've never come across a 0.4, unless it's a Titanium variant, but I have never seen anything like that.

 

[yamezbond]

I'm vaping art 28w and it seems ok to my taste, however like I said I saw some people with the same mod Alien 220w and the TFV8 vaping at 50w or 60w, that's why I was worry

 

[SteveS45]

The OP did say Nautilus Mini which those coils will not work with @DingerCPA

 

[Topwater Elvis]

Vapor shart makes or has someone make Ni200 nautilus heads usually .3 or .4. Blue insulators.
There other aftermarket sources of nautilus not triton / triton mini low res ni200 heads. Blue, black, yellow insulators.

 

[DingerCPA]

Errrrr, I'm using Triton Mini coils in my Nautilus tanks......

 

[SteveS45]

Nautilus or Nautilus Mini? Two very different tanks.
