I started vaping in January 2016 it got me to quit smoking and I'm very happy about that . I join this forum to learn and ask questions to make me understand vaping better I watched videos like everyone else , sometimes l would like to blow a big cloud just for fun while watching TV but it doesn't make a big cloud like you see in videos I have a eleaf tc 40 with a herakles plus tank with 0.2 ohm nicid coils and using ropecut juice 70\30 at 480f it makes vapor but not just a big cloud. Just curious if I'm set up properly or way of the mark.

With that set-up as it is, you should get a huge amount of vapour if you take a 7-10 second puff.
If you want that device to fog up the room the same as a 100 or 200 watt device however, yes, you will be disappointed. I've been using ss coils (0.2ohm) in my crown tank on the istick 40, in power mode at 40 watts and get great clouds. Maybe not as great as they would be at 75 watts but still very nice, for me! Cheers.

Keep in mind that in the videos they usually have lighting from the top or sides that really brings out the clouds :). They also use high VG juice.

If 70\30 is 70% VG you can go higher than that. If it's 70% PG you'll get a lot out of going higher VG.

The 0.2 ohm SS coils are rated at 35-80 watts for that tank, so you'll also get quite a bit from more power.

If I want to blow a big cloud I use wattage mode so I'm sure the TC isn't kicking in and lowering the power. You can do that with SS coils. It's not advised with nickle or titanium. Kanthal is for wattage mode only of course.

Good luck with it :thumb:

Like others have said, you're at the bottom end of the wattage range for that coil. You would get a lot better vapor from a higher wattage mod.

And the comment about lighting is very valid. Youtubers tend to backlight their clouds which makes them look more dense. Using florescent lighting also makes the clouds look more dense as well.
