I don't go to my local B&M any more, but a coworker dropped his Nautilus today. He went to the closest, and best B&M we have. He bought a new Nautilus for $35.00 and they threw in 5ml of juice. He said they had 20W iSticks in the case with a $42.99 price tag!

I am really liking this little mod. It has taken a bit to get used to after using iSticks. It has good threads, spring loaded 510, replaceable 18650 battery and comes with a silicone sleeve. Here are the details: http://www.sigelei.com/goods.php?id=617 SIGELEI MINI QUICK DETAILS: Model name: SIGELEI MINI Material: Aluminum Alloy Type: VV/VW Colors: Black & Silver Adjustable Pin: Spring loaded pin Sub ohm: 0.30 ohm-3.00 ohm USB charger: With usb line Wattage Range: 5w-30w Dimension: 22*36*90.3mm Gross weight: 180g I do have some questions about the little mod. I have read that it has a YiHi SX130 (same as ipv mini v1), a Sigelei board, and a clone SX130 board. I have done the check where you remove the battery, hold the fire button, insert battery (while holding the button down) It says YH SX130V1.5. Tonight I took it apart to wrap it with some carbon fiber sticky stuff. I removed the board and it looks nearly exactly like the YiHi pictures on their website. It does have a few differences though. Do you think it is genuine?

Same here! I ordered on 1/18/15. They split the order on 1/30/15 to speed it up. First package showed to be shipped 1/30/15. Second package showed shipped 2/2/15. Both accepted at the XIAMEN EMS, CHINA 2/5/15...lol You gotta love SlowTech.

120ml of Hydra's Delight from the contest. Thanks Comp!

These just showed up at SloTech for $28.19 (ships in 20 days) http://www.fasttech.com/products/1/10011527/2153700-authentic-kangertech-kbox-8-40w-vw-variable

It does not take much arm twisting for me to spend on vape gear, but you have such good suggestions! I was fixing to buy a ipv mini, on your suggestion, but I have the Sigelei mini with the same chip (SX130) so I thought I would get the V2. I just have not pulled the trigger yet. It has the sx330 like my ipv3, but much better form factor! (still waiting on the Colossal..pushed back to March, went up $20.00 and they won't answer my emails...lol Hopefully it will all work out, not loosing any sleep over it though) My suggestion is that if you get the iStick spend the extra $10 on the 30 watt. It is much improved. It seems to have a better range (from low to high), the spring loaded connector and new threads make it much more dependable, and the new lip they added makes a 22mm tank look better. I personally don't think you can go wrong with the 20 watt, but the 30 watt is worth the price difference IMO.

OMG! I love it! I nearly choked!

If I were you, I would go see my Dr. There has been a lot of flu going around our area. I have been off of analogs about as long as you and I have never felt better. I went in recently because I felt like I was getting the flu. It never fully developed, just nagged, and nagged, but I never got sick. They did the test where they shove a cotton swab 4 inches into your brain to see if you have the flu. It was negative. I was not running any fever either. He gave me some samples of 2 nose sprays and it went away. He said it was allergies. I take Zyrtec daily and I guess it has quit working. On a side note, I probably get more nicotine now than I ever did when I smoked. I am using 24mg as my all day vape. I now get head rushes a few times a day and I never did with analogs. He was amazed that my blood pressure has normalized, we have fought it since I was 16 years old. (2 pills a day) He said my lungs have never sounded better. I never enjoy going to the doctor, but this time was great!

I doubt I am much help, as I don't drip much any more, and I don't use GPlat. I was thinking that with some builds on my Tobh I would get it hot enough to sizzle juice that had got in the holes where the wire would go in. Other than that, I'm stumped!

Not a bad price. No shipping and get it now! I wish I had a good vape shop near me. I guess I have to venture closer to DFW. I have not been East of Abilene/Wichita Falls yet this year...

Here is the one I bought: http://101vape.com/rebuildable-atomizers-tanks/413-11-454-big-block-atomizer-clone-by-tobeco.html It is showing $15.99. I think I paid more for mine. Now I don't know. I checked my order history and I guess I bought it somewhere else... I will keep looking. I got it from Amazon for $19.99...

Welcome to Vapor Talk!

I really like mine. It is very versatile. Like Tugboat said, they can be difficult to get all the ground wires under the ring and tightened down. It seems like you need 3 hands. You also have to trim them carefully or you can't get it reassembled. I have not built it in a while, but plan on getting it out soon now that I have my ipv3 put back together and sort of wrapped. Mine is a clone, but it seems very good.

Congratulations!

It is just about like using cotton balls, except it is a bit easier.

Yes. It is a long coil. I will get it out Monday morning.

I would be happy to send you some! I bought the big box and at the rate I have been using it, it should last at least 200 years....lol

I hate to even ask this with all of the work you are doing, but, do you have any Rayon? I have really liked working with it. I am using Japanese Cotton right now, but normally use Rayon.

I couldn't get my Billow to work the way I wanted it to (I gave up before I really gave it a chance, and I was building mostly subohm), but so far the one in this Subtank mini with a 1.5 ohm coil works pretty good. I think I put too much wick in it last time. I am back to running OCC coils. Your coils look good! I also like the looks of that build deck. I may pick an Orchid up one of these days.

Looks nice!

All day every day rig (currently): Sigelei Mini 30 watt and SubTank Mini Stealth rig (sort of): 20 or 30 watt iStick with Nautilus Mini/Delta 19 not really stealthy...lol

Welcome to Vapor Talk!

I agree. I have been a bearing salesman for years and a good cheap set of digital calipers are indispensable. I have 4 sets of the $20 dollar ones and they are great. I am now in the gasket business too and everything is in fractions, so I bought a simple pair of small sliding calipers that have a 1/32" graduation and a small tape measure. Most of my gaskets only have to be 1/16" tolerance, so it is pretty easy. I still sell bearings and also have to draw custom parts to be cut on the waterjet, so it pays to keep them both in my car at all times!

I have tried everything, it is fairly tight, not stupid tight. I cleaned it and put in another coil used some food grade oring lube on it this morning and it has been great ever since. I have been at 15 watts all day. I may try to rewick my factory coils, they didn't get much use, and this is the 3rd one in less than 2 weeks (Friday will be 2 weeks) running about 5 - 8ml a day through it.
