I was in total agreement with you until you mentioned the KZN national ballet dancers association....
Nice Burn! Roasting some carnivorous sea life tonight it seems!Seems rather fitting considering their performance of late
Even if I use 100ml juice a month more its still a winner. Mind you I probably waisted that a month on leaks anyway not counting the rolls off toilet paper.
It looks good why not plug the small hole with cotton and see if there is a difference. Maybe try a different kind of wire.
Strange how certain things bust our chops unexplainably,my Serpent mini does this to me and I know it's a good unit. I have all three Engines and get great flavor from all with little fuss. I usually place the coils about 1/8 of an inch from the top of the posts. I have been using Clapton type coils.Stay with it,they are one of the best tanks on the market IMO and worth the effort,tho part of the allure is the ease of builds,for me they are set and forget no leakage no bull and great flavor.
In my opinion its that wire. I never get good flavour from those specific claptons in the many times i have tried them. Did you try the coil from the box? I would advise on getting a flat clapton wire instead.
I've got both. Found that the Nano only really shines with big fancy coils. Aliens, Claptons, etc. I have a 3mmID Alien in there. Comes out to about 0.25ohms.
I haven't tried big coils in my normal Engine, but it works great with a pair of 26ga SS at 3mmID.
With that said, I'm getting better flavour from the Nano. It's an unfair comparison though.
Will try some fancy coils in the normal engine tonight and report back. Although I imagine that 5ml tank won't last me very long
Agree with the 'big fancy coils' statement. Had SS claptons in the nano which worked good. When I built a Fused clapton the flavour was much better. Current build Fused Clapton 26ga SS X 2 wrapped in 28ga kanthal a1 lovely vape at 37.5W 440'ish FI've got both. Found that the Nano only really shines with big fancy coils. Aliens, Claptons, etc. I have a 3mmID Alien in there. Comes out to about 0.25ohms.

Looks perfect to me. I love and own all three Engines but I find I prefer the original as IMO it delivers the best flavor,and the mini is a close second. I was psyched about the Nano and still love it but maybe the dual coil has something to do with it.
I just had to comment on this
even though this thread is ages old. I have 4 Nano's in my daily rotation, still can't beat them for the combination of ease of build, leak-free, flavour and vapour. Uses a bit of juice, but then we have our own juice co. so who cares!! 
I have to agree on all points @YeOldeOke except for the juice companyI just had to comment on this

Of all the tanks I've tried through the years, this is it, simply the best.
but I DIY. I have 3 in rotation. My first building rta and I have never been sorry, imho nothing can compete.
What I didn't mention is the fill, it's a real pleasure when you fill it 4-5 times a day. Slide up, fill, slide down. No mess, no flooding, no tissues and rags. Clean n easy.I have to agree on all points @YeOldeOke except for the juice company
Where can I get my hands on one of these?
@adriaanh Doubt whether you'll still find the Nano, but there's the odd OBS Engine out there still, its a dual coil, looks the same design as the Nano.
