I've been working in the 13-18 range on an RDA. I'm new to RDA's. Right now I think 16 is the sweet spot.
Hmmm. Interesting. On my arctic with .2ohm coil I usually run 55 watts. On all my drippers I tend to vape anywhere between 75 and 85 watts, (usually 80).
Actually, with fully charged batteries you're looking at 8.4V, which would be more like 336W. Surely you know that a fully charged battery puts out 4.2V, not 3.7V right?
That also means you're pushing 40A through your batteries, and if they're 18650 batteries then you are far beyond anything you could consider safe. Even with the voltage dropped to 3.7V per battery or 7.4V in total you're still drawing more than 35A which is unsafe with any 18650 battery out there.
I can only say what I consider "safe". But, since others often quote me, I would guess that my personal "safe rule" is valid.
I try to never exceed 50% of a batteries CDR. So with a 20a battery that would be 10 amps.
I NEVER stack batteries in an unregulated device, and a simple mosfet ckt in a box mod only protects the switch ... not the batteries.
Now don't get me wrong, I do like & use mechanical mods. There are three of them sitting in front of me ATM.
However, all three of the RBAs on them would work just fine on a V1 Provari (2.5a limiter)
AND, if you're thinking "what a wimpy vape", guess again. (same atty on a V1 Provari)

Depends on what tank and what liquid i have in them.
8-9 watts on a protank
9-15 on my Nautilus mini
19-25 on my subtank

65 watts with .3 build on my Zephyrus, 130 watts on my Troll with a .12 build on my sigelei 150 box and 176 on watts with a .1 build in my Airek on my hades 26650 mech.
I have two vtc4's which are 30 amp cont so im In my batteries limits.
No one really vapes at 250 watts, except that professional Chinese vaper and dirty dish rag guy, and I think he may have blown up as I don't think he's been making vids for a while...
I was trying to find that vid of him and the dish rag the other day, cause I like to watch it every once in a while for a laugh, or to show new cloud chasers dangerous behavior, but he took the video down from You Tube...
...I was a sad panda when I saw that.

30 is less than 35. The amp limit almost doubles in parellel boxes, it stays the same in series boxes.
That was yesterday. The pros now go 500 and up...
500 watts....holy hell what would that be like? Fried vapor?
I use 80 watts on my 0.2 ohm VCT Pro. I could never imagine going past 120-150 watts. I'd never want to.
