ive come to learn what i truly want in a vape. a want rich flavor and a lot of vapor so i primarily drip on an rda/mech mod. i also really enjoy a really warm vape. the way i have been getting the rich warm vape i love is through super subohming. my RDAs usually run no higher than .2 ohms. but as you all know this DESTROYS battery life. i have to change batteries every other hour and I'm a budget vaper so I'm only working with 3 VTC5s and a 2 bay charger. is there any way to get a very warm vape using a higher resistance? i love the heat of a .1 build but want the battery life of a .8 build? is this possible or do i need to just find a happy medium?

Hmm... Kayfuns gave me a very warm vape, do a vertical build in one of those maybe? Same deal with the Aqua... Both of their airflows are fairly restricted tho, fair warning.

Only other thing I could think of would be getting a 30/50 watt device... But even then you're pulling a lot of power from the battery so I'm not sure it'd help with the battery life thing.

Drip tips will affect the warmth of your vape also. Maybe a shorter one would help.
I'm vaping at .5 with short drip tip and if I'm not mindful I will burn my lip or parts of the roof of my mouth because of the vape heat.
But if I use a longer tip it cools the vape quite a bit.
I believe the bore size will also make a temperature difference.
Try different tips, see what happens

I popped in a freshly charged vtc5 before going to work today like I always do, got home checked the voltage as I always do and still have 3.99v and I vaped more than usual today at work.
