64 thousand dollar ??? Has anyone found a good wick and coil setup for over 20 watts? Every one I build I end up using between 16 to 20 watts.
Just looking for one to overcome any guilt for spending all this money on DNA30s..

How about this:
OK, sopmething new hit the market so I had to try it.
Vapin Donuts!
I built it up "VNH" style in my CFGT.
2 Donuts in parallel ohmed out to 0.65 ohms.
Filled the voids with hemp.
I havent zeroed in on the perfect build yet, but these things have potential. Takes a lot of watts to push em though. I am driving this at 22w right now. The vape is a little too hot for my taste, but I will keep playing with it.
Liked your donuts Mike, but at the end you closed with "too hot for me".
That is my problem, anything over 20 watts gets too hot and it is a combination of vapor and smoke. Too much heat burns juice, burns wick, and burns any carbon deposits. I have always had a suspicion that many sub ohm people are actually combining smoke with vapor and calling it a great hit.....

Yeah, as a matter of fact have 4 builds wicking without a problem vaping at 30 watts with my futura.
First up is on my Flashi, using a SS mesh coil with a hemp fiber & Ramie fiber core, using SS mesh around ramie fiber for the tank wicks. Had to break in and season the wick at 22 watts for about 6 ml of juice before being able to bump it up to 30 watts, but going great at 30 for a couple weeks now. Coil comes in at 1.1 ohms, coil diameter is just under 1/8". Used the smallest big mandrel that came with the Arisian wire coiler.
On the Russian am running a vertical mounted dual series micro coil with hemp fiber wick, used twisted tiger wire around a ~18 gage mandrel, comes in at 1.2 ohms. Awesome vape at 30 watts. Tried some Rami, but couldn't get it to wick well enough at 30 watts, so slapped some hemp back in.
Also have another flashi with a 0.7 ohm twisted tiger wire, using the same mandrel as the above flashi, with hemp fiber wick, preforming quite well at 30 watts. Also another flashi, at 0.8 ohms, think it's M.Mundy wire, or something close to, vapes great too.
Just received the TGT clone, and have been trying to get it dialed in, but 22 watts is about the highest I can get it to vape at. Have tried SS mesh, and ramie, going to try hemp next, if performance doesn't improve after another tank full.
I am positive my Aqua can handle the dna, but it is a 0.3 ohm build, so saving that for when the S.Max arrives and will see if Aqua man can handle 96 watts.
Almost forgot, have the TGS clone, with a simple 28 awg micro coil in it, 1.2 ohms, 18 gage blunt tip needle wrap, with hemp fiber coil wick and SS mesh tank feeder wick, vaping quite well at 30 watts. For such a slender petite rba, it is a Goliath performer. Tis a vastly underrated atomizer. Cutest thing I own.
Lol, I have no idea what a flashi is.... I thought one got arrested for that....
lmao, but you know what a tgt, tgs, R91 are? Apologies, thought yawl knew about the Flash-e-Vapor V2 rba/rda. flashi is just what Artur commonly refers to it as.
Yep I know what those are, have at least half a dozen of each....
Have been playing off and on with high watts for at least 3 years on my lab, desk source, 3 to 24v and 30 amps. Have never gotten anything over 22 watts that I liked. At 30 watts most of my juices flash flame.
Clover leaf coil at .8 ohm with hemp twine wicks worked good up to 20 watts. at 28 watts it would flame.
Only experienced flaming once, and that was just test firing a new build, and most of the juice had vaporized. So wasn't surprised. While tanked have never had a problem, once wicked properly.
Second DNA done, now I just gotta wait for round 2 chips to come in. Tried a light pipe in this one and it's working great. 6000 mah lipo and a custom vinyl decal of the tattoo I got on my forearm when my kids were born.

far out man wish I had the talent to do that!i can lay brick though but not much of an electrician!!...lol.Rick
Its going to take me a lot longer to finish my ZNA look alike, but mine is made out of wood so far I have started on the round part for the battery, still finishing the outside then to the inside. That should take at least 1 more week to finish then the more complicated part the side should take me 2 weeks, no rush here.
This last week I have been trying to get a 30 watt setup. I kept setting up 4 rockets and 3 TGTs with different coils and wicks. I had no success with any over 22 watts. Coils from .7 to 1.5 ohms and cotton, hemp, or ramie wicks. Gave up on RBAs and went to RDAs. Finally success on one IGO L. 1.4 ohm 28g 1.5mm, hemp fiber thru the coil and down to a very wet base. Adding more hemp in the base did not help and it prefers to be flooded. I know some of my problem is my long double draws, but that is how I like to vape. So lets get these Tibs going so we can get Bap and jonnie on a DNA 30 bottom feeder. Two long draws, squonk and flood, repeat.
