Yeah... There is that.
I also think that there is a Group of People who want something more Like Smoke than Vapor when it comes to an e-Cigarette Hit.
This is Nothing New. Back on the Day it was 5v with a LR Atty.
Me, I'm fine with DIY Mixes at 3.9~4.2 volts on a 2.8 ohm CE2. But To each Their Own.
Just a Tad farther South of where the Date Shake Stand was. Right before you hit the Bend and see the First Houses of Laguna.
It was always called Crystal Cove. Then they called it Reef Point State Beach for awhile. Now they seem to be calling it Crystal Cove again. LOL

BTW - It has a Nice Break that is virtually Rock Free. So it is Very Body Surf and Kid Friendly.
Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely have to check it out. The body surfing comment was the kicker;I don't do so well on those fiberglass sticks...

As a kid I used to body surf The Wedge...surprised I can still walk sometimes.

To continue the analogy, the issue isn't with someone who hears about deep fried turkey, looks up a recipe, buys the right equipment, and learns how to do it properly. The issue is with someone who watches a commercial about a deep fried turkey, then says "Hey! I can do that," and drops a frozen turkey in a pot of hot oil on their stove.
Also, there are enough new vapers trying it out for it to be a concern. Almost all of the ones who post here are looking for info, that's a good thing. For every one that posts though, I'd wager there are hundreds who don't know this place exists, and if no one is teaching them; there will be problems.
And to the OP's point, I have no clue what the deal is with cloud chasing. I tweak my coils to get the best vape I can, which doesn't include instantly exhaling to see a giant cloud. I want that vapor/nic/flavor, it's mine.

The Wedge at Low Tide with a Swell is like Sub-Ohm Vaping.
I got a Photo is "Surf" magazine when I was in High School (1976) dropping in on an 18 Foot Wall on a Kick Board.
What they didn't show was what I looked like afterwards when I Bottomed Out Face First and then was sucked back out thru the Car Wash. LOL
A Kick Board and a Pair of Fins. Sounds like a Great Day at Crystal Cove.
There's a big difference though -- people actually do catch their houses on fire deep frying turkeys.
My friends and I used to see who could ride the longest before wussing out and "pull out." I've done my share of bellyflopping into the sand...

How come he has to hold on and steady himself?
ETA: The lighting and the mirror helps it look more intense.
You're right, something would have to go terribly terribly wrong for you to catch your house on fire with a short/battery failure. Killing a battery, or having it vent is still not something I'd like to have happen.
I have an idea, how about you get a no name battery from one of the mech kits being sold, make a "coil" going straight from the positive to negative post with no loops in an atty of your choice, put it on a cheap mech and fire it for about 10 seconds straight; then let us know what happens.
*Please don't actually try this.
The Wedge Was Brutal at Low Tide.
You could look down a Sheer Wall of Water and see Sand and Rocks in the tow. It wasn't like you "Dropped In", it was more like a Free Fall with 2 feet of Water at the Bottom.
I Swam and played Water Polo in HS. The Wedge was about the Only Place I have ever been afraid to be in the Water when the Waves were Double Height. Or More.
Man... That sure was a Long Time Ago. LOL
Ha, nice strawman, the catching the house on fire is your turkey analogy. Violent venting or exploding is still exceedingly rare and actually more common with standard-resistance setups.
Why would I do that? Hurr durr why don't we throw a battery in a fire!
turn up the sound on that video and listen to the ginormous hit he has to take and how fast he is pulling on it.
must be a 1/4 inch airhole.
I agree some of what you are saying However you cannot judge a vaper for the wattage they use... taste is subjective.
That being said: you are really stressing the batteries with a sub ohm mech, and the chances of a dead short are increased due to coil size and the high amount energy applied.
However, some people like a 21 watt vape (4.1 at .8 ohm=21.025w). Nothing wrong with that. And perhaps there will be more regulated devices on the market that can go above 20 watts in the future (at higher resistance- would would provide a better margin of reliability).
My objection isn't the wattage. It's the method used to get there, and the possible consequences. Slim as the risks may be... if someone is going to get their face blown off, or hand roasted at 250c- it's more likely with a sub ohm coil and high energy density battery.
