Yep, airflow and wick coverage are big factors, i was using thick wire (22\24g) and building big fat coils at silly low ohms that took an age to ramp up to temp but now i try to use thinner wire to lower the ramp up time but also enough wraps to cover the wick well enough. i have a .5 ohm dual 26g in my Origien dripper that is spot on, i get bags of flavour and real nice clouds too. Its also much nicer to vape on, chasing clouds is fun but sometimes i just want a nice vape!

0.4 - 0.5 is my sweet spot in most cases too. I know some people like a really hot vape so build very low resistance coils and run a lot of power through them but its just to much heat for me.

To each their own though. :)
 
I think I prefer the small, affordable but still capable regulated device war that is going on in China at the moment, the arms race of who can build the biggest, most powerful and impractical device was getting a bit silly IMO.

There's also the MVP 3.0 which could be the 30w range..

I feel sorry for the B&M, I'm not sure what I want to buy from one moment to the next let alone the B&M who has to stock them. By the time they get their shippment, its dated and people are after the next "best thing" ever.

I cant believe the MVP 3 still isn't out yet, I wonder what is taking so long?

Agreed, it must be a nightmare for retailers to keep on top of the constantly changing products. I don't pay much attention now as its just to much to keep with!

They decided to release a MVP 20W using the old boxes design :confused:

I was talking to the software dev at work, and its really is like the wild west (or east) at the moment with companies coming up with new stuff everyday floiding the market and trying to capure it, but I'm sure it will play itself out like it does with all industries where the good ones remain and bad ones die.

The MVP 2 was such a large seller they could have pumped a lot into R&D on the new version, but I have a feeling they will just keep playing it safe as it is such a well known product that continues to sell well I don't think they really need to innovate to shift units.

It is a massively saturated market, to be playing safe with the new itaste MVP might not be the best thing, as they have Eleaf as a established competitor now.

I do like them and I think it'll feel nice in the hand although I don't feel like ordering one just yet considering I just dropped £150 on my SX Mini haha.

I'll wait for the usual suspects to put out some reviews.

Yeah, let Phil Busardo put it through its paces! :D

The world of regulated mods has really started to shine recently, so many mods and variations, different looks and chips to suit most needs.

I would find it hard to pick a favourite from the few I have, each serves a purpose for a particular atty/tank or build, though they can all do mostly the same thing.

My top three would have to be:
Sigelei 100w Plus, So much power on tap to show of clouds bro! when mixed with my Infinite CLT V2 or Mutation X V2, but just as happy running my Sub Tank at 15w.
The VaporFlask v2.1, Aazing battery life and temp control. Running a Stillare Clone with a dual .08ohm coil and Rayon at 20w.
Cloupor Mini, pocket sized power house. Only just got it and running my Magma with a dual 1.1ohm coil and rayon at 17w.

You do have a superb collection of regulated devices. :D

I think your top 3 covers a good spectrum of devices, from the ultra compact and portable (Cloupor mini) to the high power (Sig 100w) to the high tech (Vapor Flask DNA40).

A device for every scenario!

Speaking of high wattage mods, what would you guys suggest? id like to have one that's got a nice lcd screen on like my vamo v6, and the same tube style mod which can take 18350 and 18650s and go up to a wattage of etleast 60w

if such thing exists?

Thanks :)

You won't find a high watt 18350 mod mate, the 18350 just doesn't have the guts to deliver that much power. High power regulated tube mods are quite unusual, they are mainly the box style mods to be honest.

Alrighty thanks, well iv found the vamo v8, that's 40w, is that high enough power? because in all honesty at 20w the way iv got my mutation clone set up, its absolutely belting out the clouds, I cant imagine how crazy a 100w or something would be, so if 20w is working for me having the opotunity to go up to 40w when I try thicker wires etc will be a good starting point?

or shall I just skip it all and get a box mod lol

If you really like tube mods (I like tube mods too) then you could go mechanical with a decent high drain IMR battery.

My IPV3 will go to 165 watts but I very rarely go above 50 and generally have it around 40w ish most of the time. I have not used a Vamo since the V3 so I have no idea what the 40w version is like.

The Sigelei, Pioneer4u and Cloupor ranges are all worth a look for well priced high performance box mods IMO.

damn 100 quids too much for me im afraid. maybe at a later date

100 quid for what mate? You can pick up the Sigelei 100w plus for £60, bargain at that price. :)

The Eleaf iStick 50w is crazy cheap also, some one posted a link earlier in the thread and is was ~ £28. :eek:

If you go mechanical you get a decent clone for peanuts. ;)

Anyone recommend a good single coil rda? Found myself preferring them over dual coils now I've started messing around with my coil builds like twisted and parallel etc...
Click to expand...

A lot of RDA's with adjustable airflow can be used in single coil mode.
I have be running a Hobo in single coil mode and have got stellar performance from it.
