After a few puffs my dripper starts to put out some pretty warm vapor. I'm used to cooler vapors from clearo type attys so I'm not a huge fan of this hot steam the rda is making. Its just a simple 8 wrap micro coil at 0.7 ohms, so it's not all that much power. Airflow is good but it still gets hot. Any way to cool it down so I can vape for a bit longer without waiting for it to cool.
Cooling vapor down?

What drip tip are you using, what voltage/wattage are you running, what rda are you using? All of that can make a difference. Longer drip tips can help, as can different materials it's made from. Lower voltage/wattage can sometimes help. Some RDA's from my understanding are just prone to run "hot" with sub ohm builds.
I'm using a stainless drip tip that came with my kfl+ it's about average size and thickness, wattage is probably about 25 I think, mech mod so no variable volts or watts, and the RDA is a quasar type.
I'm thinking a special drip tip would probably be the easiest solution here. Any of those designed for cooling vapor down?

It's not a question of them being designed to cool the vapour but rather physics denotes that glass, delrin or wood is less conductive than steel. Of course the easiest and cheapest answer is to buy some drip tip insulators.
You can build a higher resistance; use a Pyrex, Delrin, or longer driptip; open up the airflow even further; or vape at a lower wattage with a vv/VW device.
