Zerominusone (guessing sir?), what brand kr808 are you using? The regulated type with a dual coil carto (bloog, smokeless image, etc.), and the new king diamond and stealth series from v4l with a wow carto produce the most vapor of the kr808's. The question is what warmth of vapor do you prefer. Regulated run at 3.6v, kd/ss run at 4.2 and maintain higher voltage longer than any other kr808 I've seen.

Zerominusone sir those are standard kr808's. The dual coil cartos (it's the newer technology) are designed so the filler isn't touching the coil, so it's very hard to burn the carto, and acts more like direct dripping. The problem with that is they don't take well to higher voltage (smokeless image's do far better than bloog's version though). The carto doesn't burn, but the juice does, which believe me is almost as bad as a burnt carto... The wow cartos are based off the old tech, but are low resistance (2.3ohm avg in all my testing), and have no issue with voltage as high as 5.2v. The king diamond batts from v4l are a newer tech, but they went in the opposite direction from the regulated batts. Regulated batts stay at 3.6v until the very end where they drop to 3.2v before needing a recharge. The kd's (technically they're the diamond series, but when you order them it comes up as vapor king diamond, and King being the legend he is, well.... :) ) are based off a new cell technology that holds a higher voltage longer. They start at 4.2 and slowly wind down to 3.7 at death. Done a lot of testing on them (my blogs are actually a comparison of the bloog vs. the kd's, sorry for the self promotion).

Fsroq (sir or Ms.?) the fatt batts like the ego and it's clones (haven't tested a gogo or an igo yet, will soon after my bank account recovers from my latest purchase) don't run at 4.2-3.7 under load. They too are regulated, only at 3.2v...

Lower resistance in the cartomizer, and/or juice with higher VG %, will generally lead to more vapor. A "standard" KR808D-1 cartomizer is 3 ohms. I'm not sure if the V4L WOW cartos are standard resistance or lower, just that coolcarts are higher resistance than WOW cartos. Several places specifically sell lower resistance 808 cartos (2.4 - 2.8 ohms) -- pretty sure NHaler, litecigusa do.

Lower resistance = more power, warmth, vapor, though it will drain the battery a bit faster. Higher vegetable glycerine (VG) % = more vapor, less throat hit.
