What setup helped you to quit analogs?

The starter that proved it worked for me was a couple old Joytech 650 mah fixed voltage eGo, with 510 (non-repairable) attys and cartridges, or dripping them. It was heaven when I upgraded to Royal Smoker CE2 at 2.5Ω, held over 1 mL of eliquid.
Ego C Twist, vivi nova tank with 2.8 ohm atomizer heads. That got me off the stinkies and stayed with me for 6 months. Then the hobbyist in me came out...we all know what happens when you go down that road 
Debadoo, get yourself the bottom vertical coils (BVC) for your Nautilus. Be sure they're genuine! The BDC's have caused many people problems. Have been using both sizes of Nautilus's for the last several months and only flooded one recently due to my error. Otherwise, have had no problems so far.
It came with two bvc's and that was what leaked. I know the nautilus checked out with the scratch off code, so I would assume the bvc's were authentic as well, but the two just came in a blister pack with no code. Still need to just clean it up and fiddle with it, to see what's going on, maybe try the other one. But I got aggravated with having only the one air hole. I thought the big one came with 4 holes as well. Just now don't wanna fool with it, but will soon. Will decide based on what this one does if I want to try a mini. I like the big tank, but we'll see if I get used to that air hole.
I was able to quit analogs when I got my itazte vv 3.0 with mini protank 2. 220 days ago and counting and still using same setup!
basic 650 ego with a kanger t3s.
3 days after owning it, i learned you can rewick or rebuild them, and thought to my self hell yeah. money saved

The Inferno by Volcano, but I found love with the Provari and Kanger Pro. I wouldn't have made it to the end game without the Inferno tho.
pen style
was a protank II and a eGo variable voltage. over paid but it was worth it

We call traditional tobacco cigarettes "analogs," signifying that they're outdated and less technical than vaping.
An e-Go style EVOD battery + Kanger ProTank III Mini got me off the cigs. Upgrading to Nautilus, and then to Kayfun kept me off them. I'm finally in my happy place with my VaporShark and a Kayfun.
Debadoo, one air hole is not kosher! 
All of mine from 3 different stores have 4 air holes and the ones that came with the Nautilus within the box were not in a blister pack. BVC's purchased from evape.us, 101vapes, and myfreedomsmokes.
Oops, just reread your post and think the air holes refer to the base of the Nauti in which case you either got a defective one or a knockoff where they also have scratch off numbers believe it or not. Sorry. Can you return to where you purchased it? Some people have even drilled out the largest hole.

At first I thought the naughty was a clone with one airhole, but when I looked at the aspire site, apparently the 5ml does only come with one airhole. Bad design, but the code on the box was authenticated.

The two bvc's in the blister pack didn't come in the box, inside the box were additional bdc's. But it came with two extra bvc's as a freebie, those were in a separate blister on a card. This is the one I got
Tanks : Aspire Nautilus Tank - Genuine
ETA: I did get a return authorization, but then realized the naughty is authentic, not sure about the two bvc's on the card, so figured I'd hang on to it and mess with it later.

An eRoll, ejuice that tasted like my cigarettes... and a desire to quit. I think that last part was the most important.

Ultimate Mini Kit - NUCIG. Biggest problem with it was the battery life lol. Taken 5+ hours to charge and I only got about 2 hours use before I needed to charge again. I used two of these in rotation for about 3 weeks before upgrading to a eGo - C Twist and iSmoka BBC Mini

I quit back in 2009 using 808 batteries and carto tanks. I can't believe I was actually able to stay off analogs with those, but it worked and I have never gone back. Of course things have changed and I now have quite a collection of everything from Ego batteries and Ego-C tanks, itaste vv, mvps (v1 & v2), mechanicals, various box mods, and isticks with drippers, various Kanger and Aspire tanks, and rebuildable tanks (Lemo and Orchids). It's amazing how much hardware one can accumulate in 5 years of vaping !! But - it has kept me from going back to smoking so I'm not complaining.
Sorry, DeBadoo, I read both sites say the airflow ring has 4 settings to adjust airflow. Took a hard look at the two 5 ml and the two mini I've got from 4 different places and they all have 4 holes under the airflow ring. They were a bit difficult to turn when I don't have it put all together, but all 4 had all the 4 holes. Go ahead and send yours back for replacement. Even the best manufacturers can mess up sometimes (I happen to be married to a husband that ran plants), and should replace with no problem. Good luck!

The Vaporfi Pro was my first PV (basically an overpriced ego style w/ tank), purchased after a few weeks of using those blu disposables and knowing that this vaping thing (after 25 years of smoking) was gonna stick.
Of course I've leveled up again and again since and am now into mods and rda's and making my own e-juice.
Vape on!

Wow, thanks. I just had looked at the photo on the aspire site that showed one hole on the airflow ring for the large tank. But if you have two of the 5 ml tanks and they all have 4 holes on the air flow ring like the mini does, I reckin that's how it's supposed to be. That's very disconcerting since it had the scratch off thingy and it did show up as a valid code when I put it into the aspire site. I had told them it would probably take me awhile to send it back since I can't get out much, but I will do that. Will likely contact aspire too. I wasn't happy with this company and had decided that I wouldn't do business with them again, but figured I'd hang on to the tank, probably won't now. Thank you so much for your patience with me, and explaining what you said 27 times til it finally sunk in for me. lol
