IPV2 Performance

[buildabane]

Hey guys. Picked up my first box mod the other day (Veteran's day deal) for a REALLY good price. Been using it ever since and I really am liking it. It is currently loaded with a Sony VTC5, and I am using Tobh and Zenith RDA's. Here is my question: Where am I going to find the best performance with a 50w mod build wise? I am so used to sub-ohming, and I am still sub-ohming on the IPV2. Currently vaping .3 ohm dual vertical coils. Firing these at 40-50w doesn't hit as hard as my mechanical mods, and I am wondering why. Is there a sweet spot for regulated mods? Would I be better off wrapping coils higher than 1 ohm (or even higher than .3)? From some ohm's law calculator research, 50w at .3 ohms has significantly less voltage than 50w at 1 ohm - Is the upped voltage combined with the wattage going to give me a more powerful hit? I know these are subjective questions, but just seeking some advise. Thanks!

I believe all you are going to get is 50 watts max out of those 50 watts box mods

I come up with 58.8 watts with 0.3 resistance when i run it on the calculator.
your mech can run at 58.8 where your box mod is i would assume limited to 50watts.

The IPV2 has a 8.5V limit so the highest you can build and still hit 50W would be 1.44ohm. What gauge wire are you using? You can definitely put some more wire in the coils and increase surface area.

Using 24 gauge kanthal.
