HELP - how do you make bigger CLOUDS?

[Corey Boothby]

I am new to vaping, but have smoked hookah and would like to try smoke tricks. Im unfamiliar with watt/ohms/etc... What do i have to do do enhance my amount of clouds that I can exhale?

ummm grow bigger lungs? there is a correlation ya know...

 

[suprtrkr]

What kind of gear are you using? What is the PG/VG ratio in your juice?

Yeah, a lot of these potential cloud chasers fail to think about that variable. Big barrel chested vapor will take in more vapor than the skinny chested vapor hands down most times lol.

1) Coil build configuration
2) Coil to wick contact (surface contact)
3) Wattage output
4) Wicking
5) Airflow
6) Cyclone and Vortex inside the atomizer
7) How much hot humid air you can mix with cool humid air (mother nature ring a bell here)
8) How much vapor your lung capacity can handle

Need a bit more info for us to help improve your experience. What type of device are you currently using? Do you build your own coils? What VG/PG ratio juice do you use?

Go swimming. Enhances lungs tremendously.

Without getting into all the various subtleties of the smaller factors involved then the main way to achieve larger clouds than possible with small wattage devices is to have a device that goes up to at least 35 or 40 watts or above. You also want to have some kind of a tank system or RDA, that provides maximum airflow with little restriction. You also want to have an e juice with a high pg value (80% and above) that provides thickness to the vapor which will cause the vapor to be heavier and denser which will make the vapor more visible and easier to propel longer distances from your mouth. People who don't do much cloud chucking always seem to forget about the density of the vapor. Having a large lung capacity as already mentioned here is also a factor. But even a person with halfway shot lungs (like myself) can chuck decent clouds with the simple things I have mentioned here. There are other factors as well but these are the main ones.

The first thing you need to do is learn about battery safety and ohm's law.

You'll need to know all that watt/ohms/etc. stuff to safely achieve maximum cloudage. Read all of @Baditude's blogs about battery safety. When you're more comfortable with watt/ohms/etc., check these out before choosing your batteries:

Time to take of the Training wheels?

We really do need a Sub Forum - Cloud'S - I would not visit, but it seems needed.

use an RDA and a high power box (or a copper mechanical).
build good coils at low resistances (keep in mind the CDR for your batteries).
wick the coils to allow good airflow.
open the airflow as much as possible.
use a wide-bore top cap.

Thats it really. Clouds are easy.

We already have one, and a cloud chasers forum too.

There's no sub forum for the groupies, cloud gazers...

Just look what it did for Pamela Anderson.....awesome lung capacity.
