Thanks for the quick reply!
I've watched tons of building coil videos but really don't have time to fiddle about re-dripping all day. Would prefer something that holds enough juice to get me through the day without having to re-fill or drip. So far the nautilus mini holds almost enough so I bring along a kit with a couple of other tanks in case I end up vaping through the first one!

Would be nice not to have to buy pre-made coils but I still hope to keep it simple. Fill and go is where I'm at for now.

The mini can run in any range to suit you .... just trying to run a Nautilus at high power isn;t going to work....the wicking just won;t keep it. The Atlantis may be up your ally if you want to bump up the power. Its a sub-ohm tank and same maker as the Nautilus. I just didn't know if you were looking for the higher power or just a really nice mod that is built to last and has a lot of flexibity :)

That's pretty much hit the nail on the head. Sounds like this mini will be upgradable and is well made enough to last. Eventually I will likely want to upgrade and get out of the little tank scene...lol
So instead of looking for the latest mod I can move on to the latest and greatest toppers. :facepalm:

As said above, the atlantis is a good choice. I just recently got a lemo, and really enjoy it. Tank is HUGE 5ml for a fill before you leave the house and your good all day at work tank. It is a large build deck that is easy to learn, but you need some supplies and general knowlege. I learned a bunch from youtube videos, and got one of these kits Rebuildable Atomizer Tool Kit 510 Ohm Meter Coil Jig Vape Tools Vipster Vapes | eBay Pretty much everything you need to rock and roll

Hi OneDesign1, has YiHi given you any info on the upcoming version of the SXmini using the J chip? I hear they've got a few of them off at a show in Vegas today and the temp control seems to be working. You mentioned in the other thread you're expecting to see the chip around March... any idea if it'll be the same for the minis? I absolutely love my mini, and the temp control has piqued my interest.

Hey there Nova....just spent 2 days with them helping out at their booth. Yes I personally played with the temp control. The march release will be whats called the M class SXmini with Joule and temp control. The M class is a refinement on the SXmini mod, new mold with attention to surface imperfections. Starting product now. The M mods they had for display has the existing Chip in it. The J chip was in 1 demo unit and also a bare board rigged up to an atty.

Will be posting up info on the chip thread! :)

I want to add that the finish is awesome. They listened to all the feedback. Also I think I got them to understand the need to switch to a coarse thread on the battery cap and they agreed. Lets see if that makes it in as well :) They actually improved on the ergonomics. The sleeve is now depressed a little such that when you wrap your hand around it with button facing you its sort of a little grip or indentation where your fingers are wrapped around. The also knocked off the sharp edges some on the bottom front corner. No molding marks on the shoulder up top. No more rough blasted finish but a polished smooth finish. The colors in person gorgeous.

When I get home I'll try to take some better pictures of mine so you can see what I'm trying to describe. Tired and at airport on the way home!

Very excited about the news and looking forward to the pictures. I placed a pre order through gingervaper today. It's going to be a long couple months or so.

Wow, you just told Varitube that you placed an order with their competition, in the Varitube forum. :facepalm:

I ordered my SXmini from Varitube, and will be waiting for their preorder page for the J.

considering YiHi is not taking pre-orders, nor a major distributor who was there,...... yet a vendor taking them is pretty irresponsible. We're talking 1...count them 1.....unit with temp control as of this week and its not a finished product.

I'm not worried about the finished product but I can say we were approached by many looking for price and no answers were given......just give us your info and we'll be in touch :) oh and that pre-sale is not refundable .... lol
