I'll typically vape between 10W and 25W with an occasional foray into the 35W to 55W range just for something different. It really depends on what device and what juice I'm using. I was referred to a clearance sale on MEL for an Aspire CF Mod w/18650 that puts out a constant 4.2 Volts. Recently I slapped an RTA on there at about 0.8 Ohms, it's pretty nice at (I'm calculating) about 22W for a strong MTL. Feels cigar-ish. But I like to use my NaughtyX at 12W-14W for a nice cig feel on my e-pipe, and I have a squonker at 0.75 Ohms that I will take through a pretty wide range. I also have a stealth vape that won't even get to 12W but it's great with high PG/ high nic juice. And an EVOD Pro with a 1.0 Ohm atomizer that is dependent on battery state. And a 200W box mod. OK. I have too much crap.

My experience has been the wattage does stay constant. That said, I have 2 T18's and one T22. As soon as one shows yellow it goes on the charger. The 22 goes right from green to red, no yellow, but steady power. No weak vapes, ever.
Trigster, a vape shop also recommended the Eleaf 40 to me with these tanks or even the Nautilus 2. Do you prefer the Eleaf or Aspire Zelos?
 
cannot say I noticed the vape getting weaker as the battery diminished... from memory it was really a simple consistent vape until the battery light flashed telling you to recharge... when transitioning from ciggies to vape - it was a plug and play set up and it just worked.. the only downfall for me was in a hot australian summer when it was 40C I just found myself wanting a cooler vape with a tad more air ..

Nice. Maybe the Enduras provide constant Wattage. That would be a big plus.

Yes, according to specs and from my experience, each hit is regulated at 14 watts. Good to see more T18/T22 users chime in on their success. In my opinion they are the best on the market for quitting smokers who want MTL.
The only drawback to these devices is that the fixed 14 watts can mute some flavors, or be a little strong with some flavors. After a couple months with the T18 and T22, I decided for the heck of it to follow Trig’s path, because my wife is very sensitive, and found the T18 a little strong for her with constant use. I bought her an iStick 30 and I bought a Zelos. She is much better at 9-10 watts, and my perfect spot is about 10.9- 11.5. But we still use the Endura tanks. The tanks are excellent. No leaks, cheap coils, and with the iStick and Zelos, you can cool the vape a bit.
In my experience, the perfect situation for me was two months with the Endura setup, then adding the iStick and Zelos to the rotation with extra T18 and T22 tanks that I bought. MFS has T18 for $8.95 and T22 for $9.95. The T22 and wife’s T18 are still in the rotation, with the iStick and Zelos as a change of pace for variety. Allows me to put 4 devices with 4 different flavors and 4 tanks in rotation.
No big financial hit, because the other mods can both be found at around $25-$30.
A side note to lack of air flow adjustment. I was gifted an SVD 2.0 with a Kabuki clone tank. I set the airflow to my liking, about a turn and a half out. For a test I swapped the T22 tank on the SVD. The draw was very close to the Kabuki, which was adjustable. Lol. Innokin did something right when they built these tanks.
This is my experience, yours may vary. But I can say I don’t think a T18 or T22 as a starting point would ever be a waste of money. As you progress just add a cheap adjustable mod to the rotation.
Down the road, as you gain experience, you can always move up to a more powerful device and sell the Endura or keep as backup.

Redeuce: that was a really helpful post. I am using a T22. It is really reliable now that I have solved the leak problem I was having. I started on the Juul and really liked the nic salt juice that comes in their pods. So, I bought mr-salt-e juice at 4.5 for the T22. But it is a bit harsh - sometimes making me cough more than a cigarette. Perhaps the problem isn't the liquid but the fixed wattage. I will investigate further.

Hi all,
I’m new to the vaping world, having bought my first starter kit last week. It’s an Innokin Endura T18 in blue. I need to quit smoking because I live in Australia and the tobacco tax is killing me at a faster rate than the cigarettes themselves. By Christmas this year the price of the CHEAPEST packet of cigs will be at least $40. And I smoke Vogues (definitely not the cheapest).
So, vaping. So far, I like it. I love the array of vape juice flavours and—more importantly—the extra money in my wallet. The T18 is great, easy to use and small enough to carry around inconspicuously. I’m adding nicotine to the juice to make quitting cigarettes easier. Looking forward to becoming a mad scientist vape juice mixer!
Welcome and glad you joined.
No wonder you stralya's are so keen on vaping, $40 is crippling. I feel for you guys.
