I just picked picked up an istick with the Nautilus Mini tank 5 days ago. I have been vaping 50/50 blend juice and have put about 8-10 ml of juice through it so far. Today I started getting vapor coming out of the adjustable air flow holes at the bottom of the tank. I didn't notice any vapor coming out of them before. Could it be a bad seal or possibly my coil is going bad? I haven't noticed any difference with the coil or juice flavor. Is it normal to get vapor out of the vent holes and I just haven't noticed it before today? Thanks.
Vapor out of Nautilus mini vent holes

That problem sounds like overwicking, as a RBA/RDA user I haven't worked with clearomizers in a long time. Lots of people have been having issues with the Nautilus overwicking if it is filled to a certain point, usually completely. Try leaving about 1/4th of the tank volume out when you refill it next time, so fill it 3/4s full, not completely, that might fix the overwicking. If not, then turn the whole atty upside down and blow through the air flow holes to get the excess liquid out and turn it right side up again.
Vapor out of airholes is perfectly normal. If it bothers you, try lifting your finger off the fire button a fraction of a second before you stop inhaling. That will solve the issue.
It's perfectly normal. The suggestion about overwicking above is wrong, don't even worry about that. You'll come to notice that vapor typically comes out of the air intake of most atomisers.
Good to know it's normal 
I hadn't noticed it on my other clearomizers, but when I upgraded (yes, this was an upgrade compared to what I was using!) to the Nautilus Mini, I noticed vapor coming out of air holes, too!

Normal IMO...but quick ? I had a BVC head with the nautilus mini that was hitting great then all of a sudden it was like sucking milkshake through a straw with hardly no airflow.All the other BVC heads I have had have been fine,I quess it turned into a dud.Anyone else had this problem or no why it would do that?
I have been using the nautilus for a little while and not experianced that, but I dont usually over fill. So, like Luva said, perhaps that is the issue
Yeah, just red that it's vapor, not juice coming from the air holes. Sorry for the confusion
Note to self: Don't comment when being dead tired haha
Like others have said perfectly normal, when I used my Naut a lot I would exhale and then blow towards the holes and it would come out of the drip tip. Kind of like cowboys in the old western movies blowing the smoke off the end of their six-shooters. 
Totally pointless but it looked cool, I'm an overgrown kid I know.
Totally pointless but it looked cool, I'm an overgrown kid I know.Being a newbie, I noticed this too with my mini. At first it was alarming, but then I pressed the button and blew into the tip slightly instead of sucking in, and noticed that vapor came out of the vent hole. I think it's just a matter of the vapor has to go somewhere, either out the tip or out the vent hole.
Just for s..ts and giggles I placed my mouth over the vent hole and pressed the button and sucked in and I got vapor in my mouth. I'm not sure if this hurts the device at all but I only did it once.
I think it's normal!
