I'll have a look then.
Is it just a case f cleaning it in warm water so I can change the flavour?

Some people have said the mini Nautilus is still too big, looks phallic/ugly. Perhaps this is the answer for Ego type battery users or people that just want a smaller more discrete tank. It uses the same coils as the mini so should give a good vape. £9.99 but you you could probably get it cheaper if you shopped around.

Not quite, the trouble is the flavour gets into the wicking material around the coil. If you completely fill the tank with a new flavour you will still be able to taste the old liquid for a while. Or you could put a new coil in.

Personally as long as I didn't hate the previous flavour ill use the same coil. You sometime end up with an interesting flavour mix, im on peach and apple at the moment and have had a nice tobacco/apple previously, something I might try again.

That's a high PG ratio, that why you are getting the throat hit with little vapour. PG throat hit, VG vapour. Most people use a 50PG/50VG mix. Maybe try some new juice.

If you don't like the throat hit maybe go a bit the other way with a 60vg/40pg mix from Vapemunki, try something from the Gourmet Range.

Not convinced this is the issue TBH. I use 70/30 or 80/20 PG/VG and get plenty of vapour and a smooth throat hit. Sounds more like his coil isn't wicking properly to me and getting dry hits.

So every time you want to change flavour (i assume most will do it a bit when starting out) you need to change the coil? frown

Could be.

rich12 the Nautilus comes with two coils have you tried both?

No.
I will put the other one in when my new stuff comes. I have some cherry liquid but it has the same ratio as the menthol. Maybe the cherry won't be as harsh tho?

Some people have said you can wash the coil with water and let it dry before using with new liquid. Not sure how successful they have been.

If you can find a vape shop you can go along and they will let you try a few flavours. Or buy some cheap disposable cleromisers.

So, I started vaping about 3 1/2 years ago, introduced to it by my mate who had a totally wicked tornado. I was happy with it, until it broke, then I got an eGo-C tank. I liked these as you could buy bits and pieces from pretty much anywhere, and they'd all fit together just so. Not really been that bothered with making my own coils etc. Amazes me that there was actually some agreement there about thread sizes, instead of forcing everyone to be 'locked in'. Anyway, I digress.

I'm still using my eGo-C - was chatting to someone the other day at a party and they had this thing that looked liked a shortened silver monte-christo. Used a purple rechargable battery, he could rewind the filament, and to soak the wick, you clicked the base.

Does anyone know what this may be as the amount of vapour it produced was awesome.

Edit - 4 years was complete lie. It's just over 3 1/2 years I've been on these. Average monthly spend is £28.02.

Not if you use a Naturevape tank.

You simply pull the cotton wool wick out of the coil with a pair of tweezers, heat the coil a couple times, then thread in a new piece of cotton wool.

Takes no time at all and you are all set for a new flavour.

Yup, once you try Naturevape you never go back, all my tanks now have Naturevape coils in them.

Agreed. Finally managed to get one. All I could taste in the tester tanks at the local store was silica..

I bought an iClear16 today from my local vapor shop, very impressed with it! Have had no desire whatsoever for a normal fag all day, long May it continue!

I've been using the Vampire Vape Heisenberg flavour so far, very impressed with it!

What are typically the best manufacturers for e-liquid? Have no problem paying good money for the good stuff if the taste is good/strong etc.

Glad you're enjoying it, I really rate the innokin kits.

There are tons of small gourmet liquid producers to try, some of the ones posters on here rate:

Dr Stanley Clarke's Original Snake Oil
Digby's
Mrs Lord
Kraken
Five Pawns

I'm sure I've missed loads, sure the juice monsters like Griffin Dai and Cotty will chip in!

Thanks!

Going to have a few vodkas tonight, that'll be the deciding factor for me if it works or not. I'd be amazed if it doesn't though..

I mainly buy either digby's http://www.digbysjuices.co.uk/ or http://cloudhousevapor.com/American-made-Juices/Mo... these days. Not cheap but some of the flavours are awesome.
