Try a 28g 1.8Ω (1.6 for a warmer vape) at 30 watts. I assume you are using an RDA since you are already at .3 on a mech.

You can use Steam Engine to gauge your builds and how they should vape, I have found it to be pretty accurate. Use the "heat flux" to adjust the wattage and the flame will change color, letting you know what you can expect the vape to be like.

So I've got a few mech's and I've found that I really like how the vape is when I build the coil's around .3 or so. The vape is warm but not hot and it's overall pretty enjoyable. What kind of build would I need to do on a DNA 30 to replicate that? Or does the device just not put out enough power for something similar?

0.3 ohm on a mech means about 4x4/0.3=53 watts.

If you are using dual coil, then just disconnecting one of the coils would mean you're only running 26 watts, which a dna30 can handle.

.3 on a mech means almost nothing without also knowing what gauge wire you used , at least. That said .3 on a mech is 45 watts.. So on a 30 watt device you are shooting for a higher ohm coil with approx the same heat and as close as you can get to the surface area.

It was a dual coil 26g build.
