If you are dripping with an RDA you definitely need to cut down. My Itaste VV was variable wattage and I had it at 8 watts most of the time. My RDA pulls 98 watts on full battery *4.2 volts at 0.18 ohms resistance* (not factoring in voltage drops). I went from 18mg Nicotine level to 6mg Nicotine level since I am dripping and pulling so much more vapor.
