Be sure you're using authentic Aspire replacement heads.
Just me, I find 50/50 pg/vg to wick the best in nautilus bvc head type delivery devices, high % vg will work, just have to allow more time between vapes to ensure wicking material nearest the coil re saturates.
Also PG carries flavor better than vg, vg is smoother, increases vapor production & slightly mutes flavor.

You should see bubbles rise from the wicking holes on the body occasionally.
If not hold your finger over air inlet & give it a primer puff every now & then.

Proper priming & 50/50 or allowing enough time between vapes will eliminate 99% of low flavor, dryish hits & unsatisfactory head life.
If you get a odd, off, funky or slightly burnt taste turn it down.

Using a regulated power device use whatever power settings work best for you, always start off low & slowly work your way up.

You aren't trying. .... LOL

I had all mine in one container but had an organisation bug bite so I sorted them into acrylic, metal or other by color and size. Now I have 8 containers full of drip tips :(

None of them are used anymore because we made another 100 to make sure i had the right colour. :shock:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I SOOOOOO get that!!! :D

guys i need help. this may be a little long

I've been using uwell crown off and on with pretty good success. although after 4 years or so of vaping i'm still smoking. I have and have had tons of tanks. the problem with the uwell, is sometimes it's just not doing it for me. Like in the morning when i usually chain smoke, and like when i'm stressed... those moments when i smoke the most.

i use to happily vape smok single coil carto's. i was even off cigarettes for 3 weeks, before they just dissapeared from the vape scene, and most eliquid went to high vg (not good for carto's anyway)

so now I've been trying all sorts of mtl tanks.

I have the kabuki, nauti mini, sophia, dripper pro, cerotank, digiflavor siren, innokin T18 and T22, iclear 30s, that little eggroll tank that i think i need instructions for! and a few cisco atties including the hh 357. most of my coils are between .9 ohms and 2.0 ohms.

holy geezus batman on fire i can't get any of these tanks to work good for me for any period of time. maybe a week. i think oh yes, i'm on fire baby, and then it all falls apart.

I've been trying to pull vapor into my mouth then inhale, and on the inhale i get uck taste. or no taste.
so i tried to follow that ohms law chart. I don't think it works. I'm wondering....

am i vaping high enough wattage to heat the juice right.
am i inhaling incorrectly?

every once in a while i get a good flavor, i've been testing the theory out today.... and it seems if i take long hard pulls on a tight airflow, and inhale directly into my lungs, i get real good flavor. But isn't that wrong? aren't i missing the nicotine by doing that? and also a direct lung hit leaves me coughing, but the coughing really isn't bad. not nearly as bad as when i mtl. when i mtl, i gag and cough, and that is the worse. and that's when i really want a cigarette.

i get a little upset reading about how all these tanks work for every one else. and i'm sitting here years later asking wthell! how? am i using the wrong vg/pg ratio for these tanks maybe?

i don't know. some one give me some feedback on this.

Flavor is overrated. Your taste buds are probably dead for years of smoking. It took about 2 months for me to be able to taste most juices and then that wasn't a good thing.

Pick one tank and try to get that dialed in. Change airflow, drip tips and draw intensity and length. Start low on the wattage and work up until you get close to something vapeable.

If you have a local vape shop that is not a chain, I would start there. Get a feel for who they are, if they seem to be cloud chasers (people vaping for giant clouds), politely leave and head to another store if you can. You may end up needing to buy a new kit. Your batteries are probably old (if you were vaping off the same setup as Boge 510s, those are some really old batteries, Id be surprised if they hold enough charge to output anything).

Some good starter kits are

Ego One XL ($50)

Ego AiO ($25) (not nearly as good as the Ego One XL but it is half the price)

Aspire Atlantis EVO starter kit ($55) (the same folks who make the famous Nautilus, this has the new tank they just came out with, the Atlantis)

Aspire Zelos ($55) (which has the Nautilus 2 tank).



Personally, Id recommend any but the Ego AiO (only because the Ego One XL is so much better). Also, avoid the Smok starter kits. These are cloud devices that will suck your juice faster than a vacuum.

thanks. right now I'm vaping aroma ejuuice 80 vg 12 or 6 nic.
I also vape two others that are 70 vg 6 nic.
I have alice in vapeland max vg whatever that means.

I had been using the nautilus and kabuki 1.8 ohms at 10 watts, i just bumped them up to 13 watts and i think it's hitting better. I'm not gagging now that i've bumped it up a bit.

I'm lost about what to vape my .9 ohm tanks at, i have the eggroll (joyetech clr i think) and my digiflavors are .9
i don't think i vape those very high usually 2.9 volts because that is the whole ohms law i was trying to follow. the problem with the eggroll tank is that stock coils pop big time. enough to make your heart skip a beat. so maybe i have the setting to high.

the innokin prism tanks i have been trying around 12 watts. 14 makes the drip tip super hot for me. and i'm getting lack of flavor on those.
Everyone had good suggestions for you and Toolman gave you some really comprehensive instructions which I would follow and see if they help. I also hope there is a shop nearby that can look at your setup, watch how you vape and offer some help.

And please don't give up and keep us posted about your progress. We really want to help get this figured out.

VapeLuvr, I got a double sided one at Murdochs. Holds a lot of tips. It's 8 1/2" x 5 1/2".
I plan to get one more Molehill Mountain tip and then I am set. :)
