RDA Noobie To RDA'S & Dripping - Need Some Advice!

[tBERGz]

Hey everyone,
I've been vaping for about two years now, and have decided to start dripping. For the last few weeks, I have been dripping on an IGO-W, 26G Kanthal single coil (7 wrap micro coil reading at 0.8ohms) on my istick 30w.

I just recently purchased a new battery that arrived yesterday, and was wondering if anyone had advice/tips on producing some fat clouds! Dual coils? Different coil builds? Number of wraps? Watts to vape at? I think you get the picture lol.

The items I will be using are as follows:
-SMOK XPRO M80 Plus
-IGO-W
-26 Gauge Kanthal Wire
-Japanese Organic Cotton
- 80vg/20pg Juices

Can I produce good clouds with these things? Or do I need to buy a better RDA other than the IGO-W?
All input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
-Tyler

Yeah you might wanna get a better atty than the IGO. There's always the almighty Mutation X....I got my V3 from a BM for 35 bucks (can be found online for like 20), and it is amazing. It's got way more airflow than that IGO, unless you drill it out. If you wanna chuck clouds you definitely need airflow.

edit:

Oh yeah re builds and stuff, with a regulated device like you got, you got much more leeway as to what you can do. But I stick with mechs so someone else would be better to answer about specific builds etc.

The derringer is a great atty for sippin some flavor then chucking a cloud. I use the same coil you described, sometimes two. My device won't step down. But I usually run my dual or single at battery voltage. If I'm running a dual I can get a good fat lunger at 36 watts.

Blowing clouds is heavily dependant on airflow, I would pick up another RDA. There are so many out there, but tbh most of the more recent RDAs will put out a tonne of vapour with the right setup, Flavour chaser and cloud chaser attys alike.

Your build seems pretty good to me. The question is, what is your airflow like? You could drill out the airhole to 2 or 2.5mm (if you havent already done so), or add a second one for a dual coil build. Should be fine around 30W.

If you want a new atty, by all means, there are plenty of them out there, and everyone has their opinion on what is 'best'. My suggestion would be to explore the IGO a bit more, as it will help your decision making on what to buy next.

YMMV but IMO the doge v2 is one of the best for producing big clouds

Check out the troll rda and buy the chuff top. It's a cloud chasers dream. Awesome air flow, can be built in single or dual coil and it's cheap. Most stores sell it for under $30 and the wide bore drip top/chuff top is about $5

Like everyone else said, you're definitely going to want a new RDA. However, not a bad choice to go with the igo for learning how to set your coils up and get started. If you're looking for clouds then go for a cloud chasing atty, the mutation x v3, the archon by CCI, even a doge v2 competition would all be a great upgrade and would pay for themselves over time. For now, I'd perfect coils on the IGO so that way you know you're going to be set when you do upgrade.
