Best Cloud Chase Build for SW 200W + Velocity RDA?

[The Easy Vaper]

Hello fellow vapers,

So basically I have the snowwolf 200W and the velocity rda (So a regulated device).
I'm looking for the perfect build for cloud chasing.

By calculation I think the "sweet spot" in ohms would be around .25 ohm (since the SW can supply 8.5 volts max I think and the max amp is 35A although I got 40A batteries) So 8,5 / 35 is around .25. I guess I should aim for a resistance around that number right?

I did some theory crafting and research and probably when I go for .25 sweet spot, the next important thing would be surface area without getting a too hot or too cool vape + not getting a heat capacity higher then 200 on steam engine (cuz I think that would result in a really long ramp up time.)

So then... this builds seems good in theory:
Coil wrapping
Which is 26g 3 strand parallel dual coil.

Any ideas ppl? What coil builds (Gauge, wraps, diameter, etc..) worked best for you all?

Doesnt the snowwolf just use 2 18650s? There are no 40A batteries and if they are labeled that way chances are they maybe arent even up for 20A... id double check whats in there.

Yes they were kinda advertised on the website as being 40A but they are the LG HG2 3000mah batteries. After some research i found out that they are 20A batteries but with a peak discharge of 35A i think. Anyways... yes the snowwolf is 2x 18650 but according to reviews and stuff the LG HG2 batteries seem to be great batteries.

Im gonna build a weird coil tomorrow hopefully it will be a good one we will c

Build whatever you want (within your device's limits) and turn the wattage up/down to suit. Using all 200w isn't going to do anything but eat up battery life. I've also read that over 150w, the snowwolf goes into PWM mode.

ah ok then, yeah they are great. Think only the vtc4 are noticeable better at higher As.

For builds if i were you id just search around the forum. Im sure lotsa of people are sharing their builds in the rda sub .

ooor you just play around and see what happens

Well i ordered some VTC5s they come in tomorrow
Im gonna try to build something weird... No idea what the ohm will be and if it will be vapable.
Trying a 3strand parralel 30g fused clapton with ribbon wire in parralel with 24g wire xD

I just built some dual zipper coils tonight in my velocity and it's easily the best build I've ever done, easily out does my claptons which are my favorite all time coils...or should I say were! Took me quite a while and a couple different vids but if you have some 28g laying around its worth it! Clocks in a .2 exactly and I'm running it on the rx200, the temp is exactly where I like it even with the airflow pretty choked off.

That's not the way you calculate amp draw on regulated mods though. The calculation is:

Watts (+10%) / battery cutoff voltage

So, at 200w:

220(200+10%) / 6.4 (assuming that the Snow Wolf is a series device) = 34.375 amps

It doesn't really matter what your resistance is, as long as you're within the voltage limit to reach your chosen wattage.

And there is no established "pulse discharge rating". How long is a pulse, how long should you let the battery rest between pulses? Go by the continuous discharge rating.

I second this. Try a 22g N80 8 wrap dual on a 3mm. Should be in the .17~ ohm range
