Roxabox Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 As the thread title states I am going to try to rebuild the coils for my Aspire Nautilus. This will be the first time I've rebuilt anything so help me out here if you can! I'm trying to find the right wire and after some research I understand that I need kanthal wire for these coils. My problem I'm facing right now is what gauge kanthal should I get? I'm not going to replace both coils, just one, so I don't know if that makes a difference or not in what gauge I should be getting. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eLCruz Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Yeah he does, at the begining when hes holding the yellow screwdriver. I believe its 28g kanthal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Vapor Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Good luck. I tied this and was successful but it didn't vape as well as the original dual coil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaporized123 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Does this tank have a good amount of vapir production? I was thinking about pairing it with a mvp 2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliestheman Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Does this tank have a good amount of vapir production? I was thinking about pairing it with a mvp 2.0 It's a straight BEAST on the MVP 2.0. I ran that setup app day yesterday and it really impressed me. It really takes the MVP 2.0 up a notch, with the Nautilus it's much closer to the vape I get with my DNA 30 than it had been with my other tanks. It's definitely worth the $25 or whatever you pay for it. The coils should be around $9.99, I've seen people talk about how expensive they are and always felt like it wasn't that different from the protank, then I saw Mt Bakr Vapor has them priced at 17.99, so places charging that much might be what some people have seen. $9.99 to 10.99 is pretty standard retail for a box of 5 and the 5.99 to 7.99 price range is when they're on sale, speaking of Authentic only of course. I only buy authentic Aspire coils from US retailers. There's some articles by fasttech salesman that the clones have an improvement over the genuine ones, but even if they did, I'd still only buy authentic. So far I've been through 4 tanks on the first coil and it's still going strong. I got the protank 2 & 3 and aero base and the protank 2 with custom coils hits nicely, but no where near the vape I get from the Nautilus. I took off my kayfun lite to try the Aspire Nautilus and its been two full days and I haven't swapped back, and I LOVE the kayfun and didn't think I'd be able to back to a clearomizer, but this proved me wrong. Rip Trippers is spot on in this video, I watched it after vaping it, I don't like spoiling the surprise with reviews until I've made a decision myself.

Vaporized123 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Do you have to change your coils alot? With the nautilis its the only thing that moght keep me from getting it , i heard the coils die quickly and they are over priced aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliestheman Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) Do you have to change your coils alot? With the nautilis its the only thing that moght keep me from getting it , i heard the coils die quickly and they are over priced aswell They run about $10 for a pack of 5 coils, they're going strong, the kanger coils tended to clog up on me and get a tighter draw, some people may like that, I take bigger vapes and now realize I like a tighter draw IF it's a huge vape, I don't like a tighter cloggy then dry towards the end draw. I hit it hard and vape a lot though. But the Aspire coils have lasted longer with no change in draw yet that I can tell. Definitely worth the money for me, both performance and lifespan. Rox, check it out. Only $30 for all of it! Edited May 21, 2014 by charliestheman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eLCruz Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I only saw one coil when I tore it down. But I guess you could do a parallel. It vapes great with a single too. Glad it helped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
