Since Amazon does not sell mods or tanks (at least I don't think so), are you saying the batteries were from Amazon? Double check and see if they were sold by a third party and "fulfilled" by Amazon. I've seen a lot of warnings not to buy batteries from Amazon making me wonder if you actually have authentic 20A batteries.

Turn your watts down... Turn it down to 70 watts then try and fire it. Do not try and fire it at 200 watts..

See what happens when you fire it at 70. When/if that works come back and tell me, and ill explain further.

Try holding the fire button and then (while still holding the fire button) pressing the + (just a normal one click on that + while holding your fire button down) See if it fires then.

But set your wattage up a little higher, set it around 70 watts so that if it fires properly you know.

Then tell me what happens.

Okay, so turning up the wattage is what worked... that's good your mod isn't faulty.

Let me explain why putting it at 70 watts worked. Your batteries would not allow the mod to fire at 200 watts. It's a safety feature, you probably will not be able to fire above 160 watts at all with those batteries. Few batteries will make that mod fire at that high of a wattage, and safety features kick in and it simply won't fire. (It's a good thing those safety features are there!)

That said, yes 70 watts is very high and will make you cough. Personally I would use high ohm coils, and vape at lower wattages while you get used to vaping. You might try a tank that takes .5 or .7 ohm coils even, and try vaping somewhere around 20-30 watts or so to start if not lower.

It will make you cough less if you vape at lower wattages. You will want to buy a tank that takes some higher ohm coils and experiment with what wattage works for you.

Your not getting a lot of clouds likely for a couple of reasons. One is that you can't inhale that much, and two is that you might not be using a high vg juice.

The higher your vg, the more clouds you can exhale.

From your photo you're using a Wismec 2/3 with a Smok Cloud Beast King?
It should fire it fine at 70w. In the photo @20w it won't do anything.

70 watts is making him cough as a new vaper.

My suggestion for him would be to get a different tank that will take higher ohm coils so he can vape at lower wattages while he gets used to vaping.

What do you think?

New vaper with a King Beast, nope.
Start out with a Baby Beast and go from there.
Bigger isn't always better.

Not going anywhere lol
And useing it on 50w atm seems to be doing alright I only got this mod and tank for a friend got it and he's looveing it just obvis not working as good for me lol

Those are not mods to learn vaping on, as a general rule. Most people start with beginning gear, and work up to the more advanced.

The problems your experiencing so far is part of the why.

But.. I'm glad it's working out a little better for you anyway, and that we finally got your mod working. Try some higher vg juices.. you will have more success with the clouds you desire.

I mean to say a MTL tank on your mod (you can do that, though I'm not sure exactly how low a Wismec goes wattage wise, but it's probably low enough). I started out with a big old Sub0hm setup, and I hated it. I didn't smoke that way, and my respiratory system was shot from smoking 3 ppd. I found myself MUCH happier with stuff like the Nautlius 2, (has various coils), maybe an Ego one (very flexible options) you might even like the Vapefly Nicolas tank, it's quite cheap these days (I really have to buy coils for mine) they come in 0.6 and 1.8 versions, and I love my "Sub0hm MTL" kit, I vape it at 12 watts and it's a very airy vape but pools in my mouth before I inhale it. Keep in mind I have to use 100 VG, so I tend to get more vape than the average MTL person. But, I adore Nautilus 2's 1.6 BVC coils (I think they were designed for the mini) but the 1.8 coil is great too, and the 0.7 can totally function as a MTL coil even though it's slightly sub0hm. There are some other good MTL setups, but you don't have to buy the whole setup, just a tank. It might be worth the experiment, if I'd been starting vaping at 70 watts, I would have coughed, too. In fact, I coughed just plenty on a Cleto .15 coil, even though I was running it an all-powerful 35 watts, LOL. Sometimes a great deal of hot vape isn't the best for making the transition to vaping, though you may well enjoy more powerful, sub0hming vapor on down the road.
