Amen. Got one in 18500 now. Problem w/ that setup is lack of fiddle time. Just build it and go. Haven't tuned it since I got it setup right in Jan. I like to fiddle and see things, like coils, liquids, etc. I spend most quality time w/ others cuz I get bored w/ vape and fill.
A lot of people think box mods are ugly. I how ever like the looks and performance of my MVP 2 and with my protank 2 It looks HOT 
you are rght. i set two aqua at once and chabge both cotton every few days. very lil on hobby side but the vape is quite charming

As long as it's not 10 inches long, is full of finger grease and/or looks like some teenage gaming fantasy... I'm all good. The smaller the better. The less crazy looking, the better.
The more of it that fits inside your hand, the less important looks get. Not like I'm waving it around for attention. (Yep, still talking e-cigs!)

I think the Nautilus can be ugly if not matched with the right device... heck, any topper could potentially look bad on one device over another.
IMO, the second and third pic look quite good.

Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so its subjective ... I think the Nautilus looks good/better with the stainless steel tank as you pictured it.
Personally, my devices have to function well, and look good, at least to me, in order for me to be pleased with it. If a device is not aesthetically pleasing to me, then I will not buy it, regardless of its functional capacity. And likewise, if a device looks good, but doesn't perform well, then I will not buy it .... Function, and aesthetics are "equally" important to me when selecting gear, especially at this stage in my game. I believe in the beginning it is more important to find a device that works well, and helps you quit smoking. That changes when you hit the "collector/hobbyist" phase of vaping.
I will say however, there have been quite a few devices that I initially thought were ugly, but then they grew on me later ... The Taifun GT and GS were two devices that I continually looked past because I didn't care for the aesthetic initially ... sometimes you just need to see how someone else puts their set ups together, and then it changes your mind... you have an "aha" moment.

At first, I thought mechs and RBA's/ RDA's were the "Ooo, its shiny! Look at me!" of the vape world. Then I got into the RBA's with a kfl+ clone and love the vape. Picked up a clear tank mod for it as I wanted to see the guts and now I'm waiting on a stainless nemmy plus magnetic switch upgrade to pair with the kfl because it just looks silly on my MVP. Yeah. I came fully circle. Sue me.
Functionality is the number one priority for me, which is why I currently have 7 REO's.
I flavor chased though all sorts of pretty and blingy set-ups and different drippers and tanks. Nothing has performed as well for me as my REO's. I've pretty much settled on bottom feeders for consistent flavor (and the bonus is ease of use) and am also on the wait list for an OliveR Dibi as well (actually for two of them).

I agree. The functionality IS the beauty for me. That's probably why my favorite vapes are my MVP's with the lowly iClear 30s or my Helios clone (the low price tag on all three belies the incredible functionality, IMHO) and my beloved REO's with either my RM2's or my Divo as their crowns. Ugly? Maybe. But they all fit my hand they were made for me, and I can build on them (MVP and Reo alike) so well that I can vape like a mad woman on a runaway freight train. And that, my friends, is a BEAUTIFUL thing

Immature minds think alike my friend, provari's with their tapered end do look like a stainless dildo, there I said it!
I like blocky, but you gotta admit no one will ever call them sexy (if you care about that
The first thing my husband said when he saw my mod, was that it looked a huge dildo. I told him that says more about him and his prowess than it does about me. No more dildo comments.

Nope, but they will go all grabby on you when you walk into the vape shop carrying the one in my avatar. Surrounded by staff going "let me see that, what is that, is that a REO, where did you get it, how much did you spend, can I try it, that's so cool, I've not seen a REO in person, where can I get one?"
And then the patrons start to gather around to see what got the staff all excited, looking all wide eyed! LOL
And then there's nothing sexy about this bottom feeder either.

Nope - nothing sexy at all (insert sarcasm here, LOL). Which is why I'm on the wait list for 2 of them - 'cause I don't do sexy.....
