Is the aspire Nautilus as good as they say??

Snake

Bought the Aerotank Mega a week ago, and honestly it's making me wanna punch myself. Non stop leaking and gurgling whenever I fill it, and if I'm lucky I'll only waste half of my juice supply before I get it fixed! Horray. So anywho, I've heard a lot of great things about the Nautilus and was wondering if any of the boardsies have tried it?

Is this a common issue?

I've one ordered for delivery this week, I was going to get the Nautilus but I went for looks (probably the wrong thing to do).

It'll be interested to see peoples opinions on this as I'm a bit worried now if I made the right choice!

Ordered and posted Friday, It's an expensive F-up if it is crap

I haven't moved to one of these more expensive tanks yet as I have been waiting for a local stockist to get the nautilus mini with the new bottom vertical coils . I have been doing some reading and watching some youtube reviews and finally made up my mind that this is the way I want to go and now I see a post in the FB group saying that the taste is muted in the nautilus leaving me back thinking again .

Aerotank Mega?

I've used nothing else since I received it. You must have a dodgy one because mine is brilliant.

Must have

Mine works perfectly too,never had a leak no matter what way I lay it down.
Is the coil tightened down properly?
It's a pity you got a bad one because they really are a nice tank.

Yeah, it's as tight as I can get it. Could just be bad coils..

I've found them much better, less gurgling.

Where is it leaking from, through the base?

I see Esmokeireland have the BVC coils in stock this morning .

The aerotank, what a horrible pos. It seems to be totally dependent on the random heads though for me. Although its usually a case of 3 or 4 heads in a pack will just gurgle and leak constantly, so i spend half my day cleaning out the air chamber. When they work they will often only last 2 or 3 days, even with clear liquids. Beautiful looking clearo though, the mega.

Basically im done with clearos.

Through the coil, and flooding the base. I think its just faulty ones.

I picked up some bvc coils along with a mini last week, much better than the old coils, and nicer vape than the aerotanks as well.

I have an (original) Aerotank with the newer coils and a Nautilus. I use both of them regularly and have had no leaks with either. Of the two, I prefer the Nautilus and now that I've started using the BVC coils in it I like it even more.

Snake

Ordered the nautilus hopefully it'll be out Friday postman took a day off today... I was expecting a supply of juice to arrive

aoshea83

1 day in using the Mega, I'm disappointed to be fair, it has air intake control but I find it really only has two settings, no air or too much air!

I've only given it a short test run so we'll see how the next few days pan out, but ya, disappointed.

I have six Nautilus and would say they are the best that I have used so far.Just make sure that both ends are are secure and on the correct threads.

JH_raheny

yep have 3 Nautilus, never any leaks and only ever a tiny bit of gurgling if it gets low on juice, only small gripe I have with them is that the coils take better to some juices than others so can get anything between 24 hours and a week out of them

Snake

I got it. It's great... Better than the waste of money aerotank

Smacs89

Anyone used the new BVC's with a Nautilus?
Thinking of getting one, Protank 3's are my choice at the minute but hearing great things about the Nautilus.

And I was wondering where you did disappear. Grab your own juice and come into me. I'll let you try your own juice on fresh coil and you will see that the BVC coils are the best ones out there, especially for flavour!!!

JH_raheny

I'm a great fan of the Nautilus and have 3 of them and using them for months but lately I have noticed more dud coils in each order, I put in a new one yesterday evening and it went foul with burnt taste already this morning :-(
Others will last a week and be just fine.
Have BVC ones in the post so will drop a review when I try them tomorrow

That post was from a while ago , I tried it since with you and thought they were great and everything I have read since says the same .

naughtysmurf

Have the Nautilis ten days now, didn't really have a lot to compare it with previously, it came with two BDC coils & I ordered five more with it, the BDC coils were sh1t, had a lot of gurgling issues, pain in the hole

Done a bit of googling, seems Aspire knew there was issues with BDC, picked up BVC coils, working away grand since, no issues, happy with it, bit on the large size, will make a decision after a month or so, if everything still ok I will pick up the smaller Nautilis mini for carrying around, keep the bigger unit for the work desk

nuttyboy79

I've been using the Nautilis mini with the BVC coils for the last week and once you get it set up the way you want (airflow and voltage) they are good. I was using the BDC coils in the ET-S before that apart from how long they last I'm not seeing much difference though.
