    You're welcome, Kyle. Just about anything without a floating center pin is prone to getting pushed down too far at one point or another. This is a good fix for them. Glad it helped.

    Glad that cleared some things up for you

    The 9W target is seen on a lot of charts, and yes, it is kind of a sweet-spot for flavor on most juices. I know my all-day-vape tastes best (depending on tank and coil) between 7.5W and 10W, and my MVP is currently running 9W with a Kanger KPT2 and 1.8 Ohm coil.

    Every juice will have a sweet-spot for Wattage or Voltage, depending on the resistance of the coil, and to some degree, the type of tank. You really have to play with the settings and coil resistances for each juice to find the combo that you like best. When you're unsure of what works best, start your settings low, vape a little, try a higher setting, vape a little, repeat.... once a setting makes the juice taste burnt or "bad", back the settings a notch or two and you've found the sweet-spot for that juice/tank/coil combo.

    I love it when you talk geek, Earthling.

    Also, turn the battery too high and you'll burn your wick, which will leave a nasty taste in the juice of your tank. The only way to get rid of it once the wick is burned is to empty the tank, clean it out, put a new coil in and refill with new juice.

    Looks like you solved that one on your own.

    When thinking of Wattage, think light-bulbs... a 100W bulb is more powerful (brighter, hotter) than a 40W bulb... The same thing stands for vaping. More Wattage = more power, and subsequently more Amps are required of the battery to reach higher power.

    More Watts does not necessarily mean more vapor. Sure, if the Wattage or Voltage is too low, vapor is diminished, but too much Wattage/Voltage will just cook the juice, giving you a horrible taste. Some juices will handle more power than others. More vapor is produced with higher VG content of the juice. 100% VG will give you the maximum potential for maximum vapor, and the hotter you can get it and the faster you can get it to the coil, the more vapor you get. This is why cloud-chasers are looking for maximum efficiency in their wicks, maximum air-flow, and the lowest Ohm coils possible, so they can produce extremely high temps via high Watts (which also means high Amps).

    Voltage and Wattage are functions of Ohm's Law, and are two of the variables. Given that your coil's resistance is a set variable, you "set" either Voltage or Wattage to allow the device to determine the third. It is really a choice of the person to determine which method they prefer... Personally, I use slightly different Ohm coils across dozens of tanks, so I leave the Wattage setting as my "set variable" and let the device select the proper Voltage. This way I can maintain relatively the same flavor level across all my tanks. If you use the same resistance coils, you can use the Voltage setting, and the device will set the Wattage. Basically they both are the same side of the coin... more Voltage/Wattage = higher Amps, which results in more power/current.

    Nice! Good job Tam.
    That video helped me fix my Vision Spinner that wouldn't charge.

    You got a very good set up. The Vapor Talk store has the Eleaf iStick 20w for $31.99 and the Nautilus mini for $24, but you'll nearly always pay more at a brick and mortar store than online. Regardless, it's a solid start.

    There's always something "better" out there but what you have is a great place to start. Read lots and learn more. You'll find something else that catches your eye as you go along. Vaping is very subjective. What someone else loves won't work for you and vice versa. Only you will be know what works for you and that's only when you try it for yourself.

    Honestly,I would stick to what you got right now.I have a Nautilus too and I love it.I would give the eleaf and Nautilus a chance before going out and buying some high dollar mods and tanks.I would spend your money on different eliquids to find what you like.just a suggestion!

    I've been getting the same "no atomizer" message from my iSticks, too. It's more than likely the center pin on the battery that got pushed down too far and needs to be pulled up so it connects with the atomizer in the tank. An easy fix.

    This vid is for an eGo battery but the principle is the same. Be very careful and slow when you're pushing on the center pin to pull it up, you don't want to pull it out.
