Aspire Zelos Nano Review: 1600mAh MTL Mod with Nautilus Nano Tank

The Aspire Zelos Nano is a compact box mod aimed squarely at mouth-to-lung vapers. A 1600mAh battery and the 2mL Nautilus Nano tank keep it simple and pocketable, while smart wattage detection means there are no complicated menus — fit a coil and vape.

It suits newer vapers who want dependable MTL flavor, and experienced vapers who want a small backup that takes the well-proven Nautilus coils.

• Battery: 1600mAh built-in
• Output: Smart VW with Low/Medium/High levels (auto-set per coil)
• Tank: 2mL Aspire Nautilus Nano, top-fill
• Coils: Nautilus BVC 1.8Ω (MTL) and Nautilus Mesh 1.0Ω, supports 0.5 to 3.0 ohm
• Charging: USB Type-C (1A)
• Airflow: adjustable
• Build: aluminum, 126 x 21 x 29mm

The Zelos Nano keeps a slim, lightweight aluminum body that is easy to carry and hold. The Nautilus Nano tank fills from the top, airflow is adjustable at the base, and a single button plus smart wattage keeps operation straightforward.

Smart wattage detection reads the installed Nautilus coil and sets a suitable output across Low, Medium and High, so there is nothing to configure. The BVC 1.8Ω coil gives a tight, classic MTL draw while the Mesh 1.0Ω runs a touch warmer with fuller flavor. The 1600mAh battery covers a day of moderate MTL use and recharges over USB Type-C.

What fits the Zelos Nano: tank and coils

• Tank. The Zelos Nano ships with the 2mL Aspire Nautilus Nano tank, filled from the top.
• Coils. It uses Aspire Nautilus coils — the included BVC 1.8Ω and Mesh 1.0Ω — and is compatible with the wider Nautilus coil family, including Nautilus, Nautilus 2 and Nautilus 2S coils. Smart wattage sets the output for whichever coil you install.

Pros: genuine MTL flavor from proven Nautilus coils; smart, menu-free wattage; slim aluminum build; adjustable airflow; top-fill tank.

Cons: modest 1600mAh battery and 2mL capacity; not built for high-wattage direct-lung clouds.

Pairing: the tight MTL coils are a natural match for Black Note nicotine salts and 50/50 blends. Explore the full Black Note e-liquid range to find your pairing.
