You are right but i like warmish, thick and lung filling vapor and that by my experience tends to require higher rated coils which the tank can offer. Like this is rated 60-120w and when i changed a new coil i started from the minium wattage to give the coil a safe welcome but at 60w it barely work at all. At 80w it just really comes alive and perform best around 100w for me. I never max the coil either as i want to have some headroom and better coil life. The problem with my previous products were that when i was using higher end wattages i couldnt fire more than 2 seconds max without getting burned and ruined coil. That was almoust enough but not quite. Now i dont have to fear i ruin the coil even with deepest vapes, im happy for that. My wife is the opposite she likes cooler and lower wattages but likes to chainvape more little puffs like a cigarettes. I use 2 different tanks the other i enjoy at 70w and it is a really nice alternative becouse the vape rendering and feel is very different. I think im happy to settle for around 60 to 105 now and dont need anything else but keepin an eye out if something really interesting comes around no matter the wattage.

Get a couple more batteries, they are a good cheap investment. I always let my batteries rest for several hours before and after charging, 10min isn't enough.

They rest maybe to much my other 2 batteries sit at full charge for a long time atm i have around 80% power left in my mod and the other set waiting at full charge in their case. What i ment is when i take batteries out of the mod for charging i wait them to cooldown so when i put them in charger they surely are cool as they can be. Usually when i take them out they are only a bit warm like body tempature what i can tell or a bit warmer at most. After like 10mins they feel cool in hand like room tempature. Then i only use 0.5a for charging them. But if there are some other reason than heat not to charge after use i probably should delay the charging as they sit at full voltage for long anyway. But having a full charge for like 12hr+ is probably not harmfull either. I just swap full batteries when im down to around 30% then i start to charge em up when they surely feel cool in hand. Id like to think i have max power with me if i have to leave my home suddenly for longish time which about never happen anyway heh.

Btw my mod say at 0.12ohm 105w my voltage is 3.69v what happens when batteries get drained out and their voltage drops below that, mod just cut wattage output or im not understanding something here? Becouse at full my charger say batteries are 4.2v and when i swap and start charging again they are usually still 3.6v+ i dont let them go down too much but if they are at 3.6v my mod would say about 30% left, cant tell the exact % becouse mine only display bar. I propably dont understand anything but i know with regulated mod i dont have to :) i never noticed performance dropdown or mod downing wattages itself so dont have a problem just curiosity.

Just because the battery is cool doesn’t mean its rested.
