Depends on your style of vaping I guess and what wattage is also used . . . . max VG, 12watts I find a ' comfortable ' vape.

Agreed but if you asked 100 experienced vapers if the Nautilus would cope with high VG juice there would be an overwhelming no vote.  It was never designed to deal with high VG juice and that's why things moved on.  Mentioning the TFV4 was a mere comparison with regard to tanks that are designed to cope with high VG juices, i knew that OP wasn't in the market to buy hardware.  However if OP is going to mix high VG juices then in my experience they should also look at upgrading their hardware.

hissie has only just done that . . . .  has been using readymade max VG eliquid and enjoyed the experience, like myself with the Nautilus.

Clearly she and I, although experienced vapers are not 2 of the 100.

As i stated earlier this thread has been edited.

Wrt the 2 of 100, I always knew you were special  Right that's enough cheek, i'm off out to cause havoc in town, happy vaping peeps, just don't suck too hard or at too high wattage, better still use a tank that was designed for high VG juice.  Tease-smiley
Love you x

Even better, know the person you're advising.

I have some high VG juice in a nautilus at the moment. The secret seems to be to give it plenty time to soak right into any new coils, I try to leave it at least 30 minutes. After that it performs really well

Vaping and mixing can be as simple or as complex as one chooses. I'll always choose the simple approach

hehehe

I think Perpetua won that one

Yet again, goes to prove that vaping is different for us all. If hissie enjoys vaping her high VG juice in a Nautilus, that's great, whilst *-SARIN-* fugs up West Cornwall with his TFV4

Mixing is indeed as easy or as difficult as you make it, and I hardly ever buy premade juice now, although I broke my own rule the other day and got some 'Farmer Giles' "Seagull Splat" from cornishliquids because I tried some of Kenny's before Christmas and it was bleddy 'ansum - white chocolate and custard.

Haven't got around to testing it out yet, but I will do a review when I get time.

Anyway, I digress! There are so many decent 'one-shots' around now that if you don't want to get into concentrates and recipes you don't have to. Chefs Vapours and T-Juice do concentrates of many of their flavours, and simply stick in around 15%, top up with nicotine and VG to personal preference and away you go, all for around £1/10ml at the most conservative side.

No, I'm a happy bunny, definitely don't need to upgrade my hardware, I'm VG heavy & my Nauti has absolutely no problems at all.

Thanks for all the replies, much appreciated

Firstly, I find that VG heavy juices do well with the Nautilus. Was very dubious even trying this tank system, but I am glad I did. Thanks to perpy, she made me see that I was well behind the times. Even enjoying my little ELeaf stick.

I will mix one shot juices to start off with. Just a bit wary of using higher % nic bases as I am quite a clumsy person. I just know that if I want to keep vaping, I am going to have to start mixing my own.

hissie Vapable sell nic at 48%. At their current prices it works out pretty much the same cost as the 72% with the bonus of being safer to handle. I've spent quite a bit with them over the past few weeks and very happy with the service. Just for info in case it helps :-)

Thanks hondo. I will take a look

Can anyone recommend a mint flavour concentrate (not menthol)? Not looking for something too strong. Also, I know with mint flavours the % of flavour added is smaller than that of other juices. If anyone could give me an idea of the % then that would be great

You could try TJuice Mintastic. It a mint with no menthol and rather pleasant I find.

Thanks Greg. I will check it out.
