I'm still laughing, good one David
Haha well I Enjoy sparring with cloud chasers at work and here too, all in fun. I've done lung hits with subohm on my subtank mini and can see the appeal. It's just not my style or desire. I vape like I smoked, mouth to lung the heavy Nic stuff. Toot toot lol

We get it, your cheap, have fun with that.

I don't agree. I think many people are just not interested in falling prey to the marketing, marketing, marketing creed that we've been brought up to live by. That everything has to be new and improved and you have to keep "shelling out."

This hobie cart to carry your Kayak sells for $170.....everywhere. Adn a hot seller.

Just helped build 1, took all of an hour and exactly $21. We were laughing that anyone would spend $170 on it but it is a hot seller everywhere:

I call people who know how to *make do*....smart, not cheap. ;) It comes with a certain amount of can-do attitude, as well as a sense of self-sufficiency.

Is it just me or are more and more companies focusing on SubOhm tanks rather than standard 1.0 Ohm+ tanks?

Don't get me wrong... I own a few of the big SubOhm tanks as well as the entire line of Aspire tanks (Nautilus & Mini, K1)

It seems like they are a dime a dozen and Aspire are just settling with "Version 1" of theirs.

Even after getting into rebuilds, and sub ohm Vaping, I still use my Nautilus/Mini on a daily basis alongside my Atlantis V.2 at .3 Ohms.

I'd love to see a version 2 or even a revision of the Nautilus Mini (favorite tank to date) come out this year, but I ask the community...

Are standard tanks dead? What would make you switch back (if you're using a sub ohm tank) to a standard tank?

I'm excited to read what the community says!

Aspire did just release the Triton mini which has a new line of coils that are compatible with the Nautilus line. Its basically an upgrade on the Nautilus. You also have the Kabuki which is an excellent tank for flavor and it takes nautilus/triton mini coils. Even the Triton has a 1.8 ohm coil for mouth to lung vapors.

I got caught up briefly with sub ohm tanks but it was a downgrade for my style of vaping. I like nic, flavor and throat hit which is what I got out of cigarettes. I didnt smoke cigarettes to blow clouds so the increase in vapor from low sub ohming did nothing for me. All I got was muted flavor, less battery life and higher eliquid expenses.

Good suggestions! I might pick up a kabuki next year when my post Christmas vape budget returns. and await reviews of the new triton mini. Though the juice holes on the stock triton coils look awful big for my high pg thinner juice.

Haha believe me I didn't make up the term, I voted for cowboy vaper ;) course tootle puffing 24 mg Nic on a glass bell shaped nautilus mini doesn't humble cloud chuckers .. Until I let them take a lung hit even after I warn them and watch their eyes water lol :D as I said above I'm going to man up my nautilus mini appearance and post a pic. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Haha :shock:
That definitely would have been better. Tootle Puffing sounds like something you would do with a pack of Mistys.

Can't be done well for both. Hope some manufacturer proves me wrong :D
You won't get a 150W cloud chasing tank and a MTL decent function both in the same tank but the Sub tank mini can blow nice clouds and do MTL both pretty well.

got one and like it so well I am going to get another.

Been using mine on a tube mech mod with the 1.2 vertical coil. nice...

I'm going to disagree :). Both the UD Bellus and Goblin Mini can. I've tested them set up both ways. Side airflow combined with the ability to use single or dual coils seems to be the ticket on the Bellus. The Gob Mini can also set up single or dual, but you can change the size of airhole(s) beneath the coil. Both are excellent designs for a variety of vapers.

If it was not for that filling by removing the little screw I would have gotten one.

The Gob Mini? That screw is a pain. If they just made it a phillips, it would be 10x better.

The Bellus top fills Erlk style.
I just refuse to buy any tanks with that itty bitty fill screw.
I would lose 12 a week and do not want to have to carry a screwdriver with me to fill my tank.
