Hey vapingbad, so what chip do you prefer to use and what do you like for a TC mod to meet your vaping temperature needs?
The DNA40 hands down, but I have only tried those, the SX Mini M class and the Kinxing Flask clone. The Kinxing Flask clone was OK, but suffered from having to use extra clicks to wake it up and no or very little pre-heat, but if you get into the habit of one short click and then holding the fire down for a secend before you vape it is a good vape. Hated the SX for many reasons not least that the temperature was so far out like 150 F higher than you set, also no pre-heat on these and I would expect better at the price tag.

My ADV is a Origen Genesis V2 with the wick holes drilled to 3.5 mm with dual 3 mm ss rope, and a 6 or7 wraps of 2 strand 34 AWG (0.16 mm) nickel sleeper coil (sleeper just means both coils are made from a single length of wire) at 380 - 400 F, 32 W second largest airflow and 38 W on the largest. Temp limiting on these is fantastic for flavour and now I use steel tanks and vape her dry every tank so I can fill with fresh liquid.

Doesn't matter if you build bigger to counter heat production because you still can't push clouds equivalent to a 150w device without upping the temp limit, and upping the temp limit Reduces the usefulness of temp control as a means to avoid scorching wicks and producing unwanted compounds.

It might not be feasible with the size constraints we have to work with in our attys, but in theory you could build a coil that could easily handle 150w without getting any hotter than a standard 1.5 ohm kanthal build. Remember, no matter how many watts are hitting the coil, the temperature wont get much higher than the boiling point of the liquid as long as the liquid can be fed fast enough.
