feeling like juice is shooting to the back of your throat?
Tam replied to alykzandra's topic in New Vapers Forum
Yes, since the Atlantis fit on your battery, that means the Nautilus will too. The full sized Nautilus comes with.two dual coils. The mini version comes with two single coil vertical coils. At this point I would not suggest rinsing your Atlantis coil. Listen to the directions Compenstine gave you. Wrap some tissues or paper towels around the coil to draw excess juice out and go from there. Sorry, but I'm going to drop out of the conversation for now. I'm. On my tablet because my internet just flaked. Trying to type out anything on the tablet is... Less than ideal. -

These questions you're asking is why I would never try to recommend a sub-ohm tank like the Atlantis to a new vaper. A more experienced vaper will be able to troubleshoot problems that come up -- like the spitting. The battery you're using, does it have a removable battery or is it an internal battery that you charge with a USB cord? If it's a removable battery, what's the brand and mAH? Do you know the rating of the battery? For sub-ohming you must have a battery that can handle that kind of draw. If not, you're risking overheating the battery. This could cause the battery to get very hot at best. At worst, it could explode. Try what Comp is suggesting to see if that helps. He is a great source for accurate information. You might try an Aspire Nautilus with a 1.8 ohm vertical coil if you decide to replace the Atlantis. The Nautilus is similar but is more user friendly, much less likely to spit (I've never heard of anyone having this problem with them), and it should give you a fairly similar vapor and performance as the Atlantis if you use the vertical coil. -

Aaarrrrrrggggghhhh! That idiot clerk who sold you this tank should be shot. While the Atlantis is a good tank, it's not one I would recommend for a beginner. You need something that doesn't sub-ohm right out of the box. If I were to give you some advice, I'd tell you to take it back and see if you can get a refund. Then, with the refund, buy yourself a Vision Spinner (a simple but extremely dependable variable voltage battery), a charger, an AC adapter, and a Kanger Pro Tank mini with a 5-pack of 1.8 ohm single coils. That is a simple yet very dependable set up for someone who is new to vaping. You'll get a feel for how things work with something easy. This set up is like a bicycle you can learn on. The clerk just sold you a Harley Davidson full touring bike by comparison. -

First, it would be easier for us to give you recs if we knew what kind of Aspire tank you're using. Aspire is the company that makes tanks and they make quite a few. You can get more vapor with a higher VG juice, but without knowing what tank you're using, the coil resistance, etc. it's kind of hard going in blind. If nothing else, can you post some pictures so we have a better understanding of what you're using? -

The clerk is pulling your chain. Even using it on "high powered devices", your tank shouldn't be spitting juice back at you. Not any tank. My personal opinion? I think he just doesn't want to have to deal with it, doesn't know what's causing it, doesn't want to have to replace it or give you a refund... or all of the above. That's just my opinion and I realize I don't have all the facts, just from what you've written, this is what it sounds like to me. I could be wrong... -

No, it's not normal. If I were you I'd take it back to the store and have the clerks there troubleshoot it for you. It might even be how you're drawing on the tank so show them what's happening and give them as much info as you can so they can figure out what the problem is. -
Ha! You beat me to it. Both has my vote too.

Tried that, Earthling, but it didn't work so well. *sighs* But on the bright side, I got a great buzz from absorbing the nic through the skin.

It could be the vendor, it could be the ratio, it could also be the VG. I'd say you might want to try sampler packs from several different vendors. Some are sweeter than others. Me? I keep a bottle of sweetener just to add it to my juices.

Okay...what do you do with the shaved ice? Thoughts of snorting some of that are coming to mind. Lol

Nope. Not at all tired of charging my batteries.

Easily over a month now on a daily basis. Still haven't needed to rewick yet, either. Yep. Quality control is alive and well at Fadora.
-
Kanger Pro Tank coils are easy to rebuild, and you can have all the control you want and more when rebuilding these coils. Or better yet, just order rebuilt twisted wire Tiger coil KPT replacement coils from Comp (Fadora Vapor). You can easily take out the old wick, dry burn, rewick and reuse these rebuilt coils for a ridiculously long time.

Your wife should say no just because you're thinking of buying it from eBay.
-
Great news, Comp. I'm glad you got your package!
-
And this is reason #754 why many of us try to discourage people from buying e-cig related stuff from eBay.

A Kanger Pro Tank mini 2 has a Pyrex glass tank so you can use any type of juice in it and it'll be fine. Plastic tanks are fine for many flavors. Anything with a lot of citrus (lemon, lime, orange, etc.) can crack plastic tanks. That doesn't mean it always will or that it'll happen right away. Other juices with heavy mint (peppermint, spearmint, wintergreen, menthol, etc.) can also crack tanks, same with those heavy in cinnamon. I've cracked more than a couple of tanks with one of my favorite flavors: mojito. That's heavy in mint and citrus. For me, the tank developed spider cracks that spread out after some time. The tanks never changed color for me, others might tell you different. If you're using plastic tanks and are worried your tank might crack and start leaking, then use only those flavors that are not high in citrus, cinnamon and/or mints in them. Save those for use in your KPT 2 mini. My preferred tank is an Anyvape Davide mini. These are very similar to the KPT minis, the Davides just perform better for me. These have Pyrex tanks on them. I also use the full sized KPT, full sized Davides, an Aerotank and Aspire Nautilus mini. All of these have the Pyrex tank in common so I don't have to keep track of what juices can go in them. If you're using any of the tank crackers in plastic clearomizers, just keep an eye on them for cracks. Otherwise, I wouldn't worry too much about it, just be sure to keep a spare back up so you can transfer the juice if your plastic tank should develop a leak.

Oh no! Is there anything you can do to at least get your money back?

Are you sure you were just sleepy... or did she spike your drink? Hmmmmm? -
I wanna see her face!

Speaking of names but only a little off topic here, I remember you said something about wanting to change yours. Now you can! Go to the top of the page and click on your name with the little down arrow. Click on "My Settings". Then, click on "Display Name" on the left side of the screen. You can change your display name twice in a 30 day period. Just let us know what it is so we know who you are.

So...since she's keeping you, Joe, does she have a name? I'm thinking Princess because you will treat her like one. Lucky kitty!

EC Blends has roast chicken, bacon, roast beef, crab legs, pickles, carrots, pizza... all in their novelty flavors. I've tried their roast beef but didn't like it at all.

Who gets to be Q?

I hear ya. There was a 4 or 5 week old kitten that I took in and bottle fed until she was old enough and I could find her a new home. My nose was constantly red and my eyes were watering since I'm allergic to cats. It was okay for a little while until she got a little older and developed the dander that all cats do. I won't leave an animal in need either. The wild cotton tails in my back yard love me. They get baby carrots every morning. The sparrows, finches, morning doves and prairie quail wait for the birdseed too. If we had the room I'd love to get another Irish Setter. We used to breed them when I was growing up, but with an apartment, we gotta stay small.
