I don't post often but wanted to share. I apologize in advance if I bore some of you. I have been enjoying my Nautilus and Silo atomizers, never needed anything else for the past few years. Happy camper. Recently I realized that the replacement coils were not as satisfying and were also were my number one cost ( I DIY my juice). I had started out with egos then jumped right into rta's & drippers. When I had discovered the Nautilus tanks I cleaned and stored the RTA's but keep out a few drippers out for testing my juice recipes.
.
Someone on the board recommended the Goblin V3. I bought one, then another one. excellent vape but got me curious as to what else was out there. Bought the Merlin RTA, then bought 5 more (all flash sales at GearBest). Bought a couple of Digiflavor Sirens. I am a MTL vaper. I am in Vape heaven!

I bought 250ft each of 28, 29 and 30ga Kanthal direct from TEMCo, it was cheap and free shipping. Got me a big bag of Koh Gen Do from Amazon. I set down and preceded to wrap a few dozen coils so I could just grab one when needed. Discovered the little container that the extension tube for the Goblin V3 came in was the perfect size to store my pre built coils in.

Then I decided to go through my stored stash. Luckily I had stored them in their original boxes cause I had forgotten what I had stored away. It was like Christmas! I pulled out a Kafun Lite russian clone I had purchased on ebay for $39.99 in Dec 2013. Grabbed one of my pre-made coils and cotton and set the kayfun up - a few minutes later my husband asked me what was up cause I had the biggest smile on my face. He doesn't vape so he wouldn't understand.
I was on a roll so I went back to my nicely boxed stash and pulled out a couple of Smotech Pyrex RSST's that I had purchased from Venerable Vapes the 1st of 2014. I saw my list of accessories I purchased for it from Kidney Puncher I had center post upgrades, AGA silicon plugs, spare tanks, silver plated brass RSST positive posts. Why had I ordered all that crap?

I put together the RSST and filled her up. The first draw made me remember why I had bought all that crap.

I have carefully packed up my remaining Nauti's and Silos and put them in my stash box along side the various collection of retired Protanks and wonder if I will ever rediscover them again. Maybe when I'm too old to wrap coils?

Yes it is very pleasant and comes in handy for back ups. I had put away several regulated mods along with my mechanical s. A few days ago I had to send my Classic Zombie 2.5 to Bill at ProVari Repair Service for repair and needed a backup. I pulled out a few old regulated mods to try out. My old Sigelei Mini and SVD came in handy as my retired 18500 flat top batteries were put back in use.

BilI also emailed me saying he could upgrade my classic to P3. I figured for $20 it was probable a good idea. I don't have a P3 so don't know how I will like it. All my others are 2.5's as I don't sub ohm. I hope he sends instructions.

f1rsb1rd, a member here knows a lot about the Provari's and bet he'd help you out if you had questions:)

I've been vaping exclusively for almost two years, and with the exception of one pro tank, and pen battery I still have every piece of gear I ever bought. It is nice to bring out the older stuff from time to time, and still get enjoyment from using it.
