Cloud chasers do you prefer mechanical or regulated mods

[DraganPDX]

I have the S1000 mech mod but Im considering getting a regulated device like sigelei 20w (excluding box mods just cant get into them)

I typically run dual coils between .3-1 ohm

I wanna get another mod but im debating of getting a regulated mod that can handle lower ohms (sigelei 20w will go down to .6ohm) since I already have a mechanical mod (S1000)

Im running a Seven 22 with a .5 ohm dual coil and I love it. I've never gone below .5 on my mech mod though, so I'm not sure how much difference it would make. The added security and battery meter are quite nice though.

I use a mech for big clouds but my buddy just got a hana and that thing blows some awesome clouds as well. I've seen some of the biggest clouds come from reallly low ohm builds on a mech but I imagine many of the newer boxes out there will be just as capable.

Too be honest. When I started vaping and getting into mods I was all about the cloud chasing. I was using strictly mechanical mods and drippers at about .3 ohm dual micro coils. Recently I have really been getting into kayfuns and regulated mods for a consistent and quality vaping experience. I still use my mechanicals and rda's but not nearly at as low of ohms as I did in the beginning.

For cloud chasing, mechs rule supreme. A DNA30 mod would work, but you'll be waiting in a long line or paying huge markup to get one.

Generally 'cloud chasers' will go for mechanicals because they can run higher watts by installing lower ohm coils. A regulated (vv/vw) will always have a minimum ohms and maximum watts which I guess they would find restrictive.

Another thing with regulated mods like Sigelei 20w will it allow me to run full 20w on a .6 ohm coil?

 

[Blind Squirrel]

I don't think the Sig 20w will let you run sub-ohm.

This is what I found posted about the specs:
* Variable wattage - adjustable from 7.0W to 20.0W (in 0.1 watt increment)
* Variable voltage - adjustable from 3.0V to 8.8V (in 0.1 volt increment)
* Supports 0.5-3.0ohm Atomizer

I'm not a cloud chaser as I prefer quality over quantity, mainly use 1.7ish ohm in my KFL+ and .7-1 ohm in my RDA's. But I would say stick with the mechanical. For example 4v x .4 ohm = 40watts. Sure DNA 30's and other high end regulated devices will produce large clouds and deliver high wattage but you have to ask yourself do you want to be using them at there maximum potential and shell out that kind of money? I vote mechs, however we all know there is more to big clouds than just delivering the needed power.

I prefer a mech, but I've never had VV/VW mod that can handle sub-ohms so I really don't know how well they work.

Another vote in the mech camp here.

Stay with the mechs!

I like both, equally, as long as the regulated can push at least 30 watts or more, that is. Own both, use both, need a home for all my rba's after all. lo.

 

[CassiusCloud]

I love my mechs for chasin,because the highest regulated i have at the moment is as 20 watt and won't let me down below .6

 

[Blind Squirrel]

I run pure mech at the moment, but that DNA 30 has my attention. When I find a Hana for a reasonable price I'm in.

 

[Cloud Junky]

My mechs produce the biggest clouds but I am on an Atomic and a DNA30 reading .8 @ 24-watts and it is pushing them out there but still not as good as the mechs when strictly drowning in cloudage.

 

[Papajohns]

I prefer regulated because I just get soooo much more vape time. My zmax can push 13watts for about 6-8 hours on a single battery. I much prefer that to 30 minutes of vape time on a mechanical.

 

[itskohler]

30 minutes on a mechanical? I get 12 hours on a charge.

If your chasing the clouds a dual or quad build even, around .15-.2 ohm on a mech with a good 30amp battery (gotta have this) can't be beat.
