Greetings! I'm running a I taste MVP 2.0 & Kanger Subtank rig. I've rebuilt the OCCs with various 30 & 28 awg Kanthal wire and organic cotton, but I'd like to get a little more cloud and flavor. Not sure if the rba would work better or if a higher wattage box is in order. Any suggestions?

Hello and welcome to the forum. Glad to have you here!
Do you have the MVP v2 (11 watt maximum) or the MVP 20watt?

I run my Subtank at 16 - 18 Watts on the 1.2ohm OCC, using the 0.5ohm OCC i run it no higher then 22 watts or else the juice seems to get too hot going over these wattages for me (even wide open). So if your MVP is only claimed to go to 11W, you may not have enough POWA to run it to its potential.
Get a better mod. The MVP 2.0 wasn't made with sub-ohming in mind and is vastly underpowered. Best bang for your buck would be something like an iStick 50W. Best price is at Rocky Mountain vapor (when in stock) with the code FORUM for 15% off. Eleaf Istick Kit : Rocky Mountain Vapor, The Mountain top of Electronic Cigarettes
You could also look at getting into mech mods.

As djs stated, the MVP 2.0 just doesn't have the power to run a Subtank. It won't be able to fire the 0.5 ohm coil and even with the 1.2 ohm coil it'll be struggling to keep up with the airflow even on the lowest settings. You're now faced with 2 options, either replace the Subtank with something else (Nautilus, Protank, Aerotank, etc) or replace the MVP 2.0 with something better suited for the Subtank. Should you decide to go with another device I wouldn't go any lower than a 30 watt device, a 20 watt would work but 30 watts would be a better option.
The iStick is a good option, but unless the OP is willing to put in the time to learn about batteries and the safety requirement to use a mech mod it might not be a good suggestion. Mech mods are like a parachute, they're great when they work but when something goes wrong your in for a world of

This absolutely made my day. I wish I could "like" it twice.
Not trying to jack your thread, but that brings up something I noticed. Granted I am very new to this but I have a Kanger Sub Mini(.5 coil) w/30w iStick and find I get plenty big, dense clouds at 2.8-3.0v. When I watch reviews on Youtube and read about things, it seems most people run much higher. I know the friend that introduced me to it runs his Aspire Mini Nautilus at 3.7v.Now, I'm using subtanks (on other mods), but at surprisingly low power... weird that.
I have the Mini Subtank and use both my MVP2 and MVP20w with using the 1.00 or the 1.20 coils (not into sub ohms) I find I use the V instead of watt setting 3.7 to 4.1 and the subtank works just great. Even then the vapor gets hot at times. I haven't once gotten a dry hit and often vape 70vg/30pg.
I recommend the MVP 3 myself as it's currently my favorite mod. However, if money is a thing you can actually get an MVP 20 watt for half the price and I personally get good taste and decent clouds off the Subtank with a 1.2 coil around 18 watts.
I started with the MVP 2.0 and enjoyed that, but just got my iStick 30W and love it!
