It seems a bit silly to me...
Hey guys,
I just got my natural from Mt. Baker vaper and I'm having a problem with it. I'm using an 18350 in it and have my vivi nova on top but it's not producing much vapor, like almost none. My pro tank is vaping OK on it but not as well as it does on my vamo. The batt is totally charged, the coils on both attys are in good shape and vape great on the vamo. I'm just not sure what's wrong, anybody have an idea?
Thanks all.

Hey meatsneakers,
I'm using clearos, the nova is 2.2 ohms and the pro tank is 2.5 ohms. On the vamo I'm vaping at 9 watts.

You're at 6 - 7.5w with those cartos and a normal 3.7v battery. Get a lower ohm carto or a Kick to bump up what you have now.
A 1.5 or 1.6 ohm carto would be around 9w for the bulk of the batteries life.

What setting(VV/VW?) do your normally set your Vamo at? I can't use anything higher than 2.4ohm with my natural (my 1.8 ohm heads have been re-wicked so many times they are starting to deform)
If you have a mini nova ( i have both the vivi and the vivi mini - prefer the mini so far) and i I have to "squeeze" it back together every 2 days or so from being in my pocket to get the good contact again. Check/clean the threads of the 510 connection on both the natural and tank. It's possible you have gunk buildup that's interfering with the current exchange. When my vapor production started falling off, I pull the tank, change wicks (dry burn w/ no wick during to get off the gunk) and take a q-tip and get the inside (female) threads, use a paper town or TP to get the gunk off of the male threads.
Make sure your pressing the button down all-the-way. Until the button softens up from use(or stronger hands) it's difficult to get a consistent vape.
When I first got my mech, I was using the e-go t2 more than the natural. Now (2 weeks later) I'm using the natural exclusively. The e-go batts are now backup.

I just ordered an AGA-T2; 28,30,32g A1 Kanthal, Ribbon Kanthal and Ribbon nichrome, and ni60 30,32,34 and ni80 32g. 3x 40x40mm 450 SS sheets. They didn't have any "good" SS though
Lots of experiementing, just need to visit the hobby-store for hemp and bamboo wick. Does anyone have some 500 SS that they can send my way? It's the only piece that seems to be sold-out EVERYWHERE .I'm so excited to build my first(working) coil on the nova heads and the aga-t2! The Ni60 36g wire I have gave weird tastes and I could only get HR coils. I even tried to twist to drop the resistance and could still only get 2/3 wraps for 3+ ohms
on a 1"ish wire.Next paycheck I get DIY juice and flavoring and git 'r' done!

Always remember this guys its my 2 cents...if u want to use full mech at its power u have to use lower ohms... from my experience below 1.5 is perfect for natural above that lets say 1.7 now thats where ill be using my ProVari... hope this help...

It wasn't that long ago that I thought those 1.25 ohms cartos were way to low, now I'm making coils .8 to 1 ohms, it sounds extreme but seems to vape where I want it. If using a VV/VW I set it to around 12 watts.
I'm looking to purchase a natural as a back up while I wait for a paps in the mail..
I have a few questions though...
Does the natural have brass contacts?
Does the center post use a spring or is a solid contact?
If I use 18490 batteries with a pimple on the + side will it fit perfectly or be loose?
And lastly, if I use a drip atty with an ohm reading about .7-.9, will any part of the natural cause any shorts?
I've had problems with my Gus bottom button because it was really old and it would cause misfires and I wouldn't be able to properly use dual coils...
So basically I either wait it out or purchase this as I don't have any other mods avaliable atm

The natural has a brass contacts but, u have to sand it... about the center post im not sure what u mean about it but the negative post has a small spring between the post and the negative is a solid post (also if u want brass u can sand it too) and yes the batteries that is not flat top fits and its not loose(even with flat tops) in my experience running on .7-.9 I havent got a short (I even ran mine at .6 w/ no problems)....
hope that answers it all...happy vaping!sent from mars
You'll probably get the Paps before the natural, Perseas ships fast.
Sadly I don't think I'll get it ill at least till Wednesday of next week :/
To remove the post u need to use two flathead... use the one flathead to hold the negative screw and the other to unthread the post... also u can use aw for seamless look but sometimes it depends on how u adjust the top 510 pin or how far u modded sanded the 510 pin... but my experience flat top battery does seamless in my natural than the nipple top batteries but still I can work my way to make it seamless...when using a kick u can use both tubes and 18490/500 batteries it works flawless
.... also about the batteries, some batteries really fit well on the natural notably the efest and aw...hope that helps... happy vaping!sent from mars
