For a 70W mod I would get a 30A battery. The vtc4s are only 2100mah, but they would be the safest in it. RTD Vape has them.

.2 ohms at 70w and 18.75 amps. I personally don't like sitting on the line for "safe usage" so I wouldn't push it that hard, but just because you have a 70w mod doesn't mean you will use all of it. Get some vtc4s if you want to push it up that high, otherwise you should be fine with 20amp batteries. If you are Vaping at 70w on a single 18650 I doubt you are very concerned with battery life... Just sayin :)

Top choice is the SX mini and it's soon to be released cousin with Temp control - but those are ~200.00 devices

Xpro 50 or 65 - nice size and form factor , but maxes at 4.2 V - I need 40 W for my Atlantis off this device to have the same affect as 32 for the SX mini

IPV2 mini is about the same form factor and size as the SX mini and I think they are available for 50-60
My Atlantis at 32 W 4.4 V is perfect for that tank. Billow at 37 is just right (.5 ohm dual coil)

Tried a .3 atty at 45 W and that was excellent- sleep mode to fire is almost instant. Really like this device
The black seems to scratch easily, but that will not be an issue once my wrap arrives
Much better chip then them the first IPV mini.
30 watts just seems to give more voltage, more powerful vape then both the original IPV mini and Xpro
Easy to change the Battery so I don't bother with pass through, but I will charge overnight if I remember to

IPV2 original is nice although they still use screws, but mine have worked fine for many months.
Just a bit larger of a box mod style

I can post pics of them all if needed
Some atty's like the plume have issues on the 510

The flash point of nicotine is 203°F so pretty much any wattage we us is effective. The higher the wattage the faster larger volumes of nicotine can be delivered but there always are limits. Even the vapor being produced will have a limit. So vaping at 200 watts isn't necessarily going to give you more vapor than say 70 watts.

Studies are currently be performed to figure out what chemical byproducts may or may not be produced at different temperatures. Personally, my answer would be to stay as low as you can while maintaining the amount of nicotine delivery and vapor you find satisfactory.

I personally like 25-35 watts.

Do you have an xpro? I saw reviews with it sparking, which would concern me...

Hi there.
Time traveler here don't mind me.

The perfect vape for me is my beginner MVP 29.0 going at an OK 2.3 gigawatts. Those crazy cloud chasers are going quadruple that though!

Nah just kidding. It depends on what kind of person you are. Personally I enjoy hot humid vapes; which many people despise. My sigelei 150 is a bit too much for me at full power but 75-100 watts its perfection depending on the juice to me
