Thats the exact answer I was hoping for, thanks MythDrago. Its an 8.5 watt battery and it says its perfectly capable for running 2.0 Ohm dual coil iclear tanks. (im assuming iclear is used here because of their partnership) So with 2.0 Ohms is it really worth doing a RDA set up? Will there be a lot of vapor or around the same as what it makes now with my Protank 3? I know a lot of this depends on the coil used

Wow - it's it's really limited to 8.5 watts you won't going to be able to build much of anything that would be much of an improvement over the iclear.

I would say it probably wouldn't really be worth it on the cool fire 1.

It depends on your budget for recommendations.

If you're going for budget, I think you'd be hard pressed to find a cheaper 30w mod than the iStick 30w, I've seen them for $30-35. It will do some sub ohming (down to .4o iirc) and has enough power to handle a RDA well. Then throw in a cheap $5-15 RDA clone, get some kanthal, and cotton, and you're set.

If you're not on a budget there are better mods and RDAs to recommend.

Just watch some YouTube videos on the different mods, and RDAs, and how to build coils and such to learn more about it.

Its non adjustable 8.5 watts :( But its still a great daily vape for the price I paid for it, and It makes decent vapor and flavor. I just want to get into RDAs and have been doing research, its just a matter of finding the perfect peice for the perfect price. I will definitely look into the iStick 30w, I would like to thank everyone again for the help. The forums work great for learning something new

With the MVP2, if you want to do a dual coil you'd likely have to use really thin wire (32 ga) which is a lot harder to work with than 28ga.

What to buy?
For building I'd suggest a 30w box mod. The hana mod clone is $60 these days. I bought one over 6 months ago and still use it, it's been great for me.
Beside you read up on battery safety if you go to a mod with a replaceable battery, and buy good quality batteries from a reputable source, and a good quality charger. RTDvapes and Illumination supply are very popular on this forum. The XTAR, NiteCore intelecharger, and EFEST LUK chargers seem to get great reviews on here. Cheap batteries or a cheap charger could cause a fire or bodily harm, best to spend the extra few dollars on quality, could save you a lot of pain later.

don't forget the ohm reader - most regulated mods will check your ohms for you, but better safe than sorry.

Hey, as long as it keeps you vaping and not smoking that's great.

Yeah, iStick 30w, and their upcoming 50w offer great value, check them both out.
