Ok so after looking online and seeing generic suggestions about what volt to use for different ohms I wanted something more towards my specific set up. I am trying to find a good setup for my I stick 30w sub ohm with two different tanks, one tank is a KangerTech Protank 2 and it is running with a 2.2ohm coil and that tank has my Cinnasick from Two Peas in a Pod and When I vape from that tank I have it at 4.6v and 10.0w and that seems to work very well, it's a very strong flavor and that setting seems to be best for good flavor without the strong burn spice with it. The problem comes in when I want to switch to my Aspire mini Nautius with a 1.7ohm coil that has a new flavor For me, white mango from California vaping company, it a very mellow flavor and I can't seem to get the right volt for a bolder flavor and am trying to avoid burning my coil by setting it too high, what suggestions can you give me that are more targeted to my set up and not general? What would be to high and burn out my coil or cause a strong burn feeling and taste?

First, I'm really surprised that you can vape a PT 2 (single coil) at 10 watts--Kanger recommends 7.5 watts max for their single coil atties, and I agree with that recommendation. To me, everything higher than 6.5-7W (single coil) is too high--those coils were not designed to handle so much wattage. If you had a ProTank 3 (or an Aerotank), those have dual coils and require more wattage than the PT 2.

Nautilus, a vertical single coil, can actually take a bit more wattage than the PT 2, but if you're vaping a subtle fruit flavor, lower wattages are recommended. Increasing wattage will not make your juice taste stronger--but it may make it taste burnt. I would try 6 or 7 watts and see how it goes. Go up only if necessary.
