Power mode or temp control? What's your preference?

To me, it was/is the equivalent to single or dual kanthal... more flavor etc...
Power all the way. I have yet to find a TC configuration that gives me a satisfying experience.

I tried TC for a bit last year. Mostly on my Subtank Minis. It wasn't bad but my mod (Evic VT) seemed to be a bit under powered. Because the majority of my tanks are Kayfuns (which don't do well with TC) I really didn't get into it. The Evic has bitten the dust since then but I have replaced it with two newer mods that can do TC. I just don't really try at this point.
Primarily TC here. My preferred wire is NiFe48, 0.4mm. Running at 22W, with an 8 wrap spaced coil at 0.25 cold ohms at 250C|480F - I think the trick is you need an atty with plenty of airflow and a non-adjustable 510. I am a flavour junkie, and tuning the temperature for flavour gives you so much more control than just adjusting the power setting. I get less coil junk, and have to rewick less often 
One thing I have learned in life: "New and improved usually isn't".
I'll just stick with kanthal and vw.

I seem to be the minority here, but TC all the way 
I'm still pretty new to mods & building and haven't done any dual coils just yet, but I find a single coil of 2 strains of twisted titanium very satisfying altogether.

I just can't get a great vape from TC these days but maybe I've lost my way a little
May add some CSV files on escribe and see how it goes

Took me a bit of trial and error to find my TC settings, but eventually found what I like.
I noticed in another thread you were trying to use ss with tc on the DNA200. It can be a real pain to get working. You have to build high ohm (0.5 and above) and space them for it to work correctly. Even then it can be sometimes erratic. I just gave up with ss and tc on the DNA200.
By May 2015 I was vaping a 1.5 ohm kanthal coill at 20 watts. These days it's 400 degrees and 30 max watts with a 1.36 ohm stainless coil. With stainless I can switch back and forth and find I prefer temp control, in particular because I only use rda's and they are way easier to live with out and about in TC mode. I'm trying to avoid increasing power. It puts more stress on batteries, consumes more liquid, potentially annoys more people. If I was younger I'm sure I'd enjoy annoying more people but apparently I got over that.
The best ss vape I've gotten so far was on a crown coil, I know they have nickel legs but it vaped so well in TC every other ss build has been a pain
Power mode with kanthal, nicrome and finally 316l. ohms dropped a little and power went up with the 316 but it's an enjoyable vape...you can feel the difference.
