Yes, you double the voltage, but
batteries will "sag", so a freshly charged 4.2v 18650 is really only able to output about 3.7v (its nominal voltage). Double that is 7.4v.
No doubt you can put out "fat clouds" with a series mech
mod and a low resistance build, he's probably pushing north of 200 watts when the battery is fresh on a build lower than 0.3 ohms. And he's also pulling more than 30 amps. But ask him how the flavor is, and how wide open he has to have the airflow to keep from burning his mouth at that power level and how deep he has to inhale to support it.
He's basically showing off, and not many people actually
enjoy that sort of vape, they just enjoy watching the pretty pretty clouds.
You have to ask yourself what you're looking for out of
vaping, and the FIRST thing you should ask is "am I doing this to impress people and fit in with the cool kids?" Because if you are, you're probably going at it for the wrong reasons. It's that sort of crap that got most of us smoking in the first place, and we all know how that turns out.
There's nothing wrong with clouds if that's what you like, but don't feel like you NEED to do it either. There's a whole lot more to the experience than that, just be sure you find the aspect or aspects that actually keep you off dipping and smoking, for your own reasons.
Getting back to the X Cube II, it's a decent device for the price (I have one on the way), and gives you a lot of options, it'll support any type of vaping you choose, from tootle puffing to mega cloud chasing and anything in between. It has some issues, and it's huge, but for the most part, it's hard to go wrong with it for around $60.
