Well thats a good thing because I think most clones only come with airholes on one side. So you might have an authentic. without knowing the actual resistance, the build how and what its wicked with. It is hard to say what is going on. Do you all vape the same pg/vg ratio juice?
we all vape epic juice main squeeze 6mg

There are both single and dual Helis, both of mine are singles, and that's cool with me, but I'm not super-subing and I like single coils. Just bumping the coil in the right place or tweaking the position of your airflow can double (or half) your vapor production. And flooding your well will really cut down on your cloud potential. There are so many variables you really need to be able to tweak. Start learning the safety aspects before you go messing with it much though.

i have noticed that sometimes less airflow makes bigger clouds. maybe my holes are drilled out too much and theres too much airflow

Airflow position is crucial.

You can have TOO much airflow in some cases. Typically though the lower the resistance the more airflow you will need.

im gonna stop in my vape lounge and talk to the techs there and see what they can do for me. ive seen them teach other people things so maybe i can learn a thing or 2 from them on starting to do my own builds. thanks a lot guys you've been a big help! :toast:

If the airflow is positioned right and the coil is really producing, the more air = bigger clouds (less air tends to improve flavor). But if, say, yer coil is below yer air holes, or the coil just isn't producing well, then a tighter draw will help production. It still won't be great, but it will help.

Hello, hate to say this but those helios didn't work for me. The build deck are nice but other than that, nothing nice to say. I prefer an Ego W with large tip Pyrex glass($30 on Ebay). But anyhow, yes technique, wick material, size of coils(prefer micro coils), placement of air opening on coils, and juice all dependent on blowing clouds. One juice I find that blows clouds in almost anything is Cosmic Fog The Shocker. This thing blows clouds in a Kayfun. Also go down to 0 nic which helps you chug more vape.

If you want a cheaper RDA that blow clouds without somewhat flavor.

Ego W with Pyrex Glass.
Enigma RDA
Plume Veil
Tug Boat large drip tip
List can go on but dependent on coil type and ohm.

Juice:
Mention above.
Or something 100% VG with 0 Nic. Too much cloud = greater nic level. RBA with 18 nic is about RDA with 6 nic.

Mods:
Really doesn't matter, I think good RDA with high voltage loss Nemisis is still good. Although copper mod with silver contacts is the way to go.

Yes I know everyone says that. But my Notorious Mod hits harder. :ohmy:

I have 4 nemy clones as well including 2 single body alumn with hybrid connectors. They do and no one is going to know the difference between .1 to .3 voltage loss. If they do, they are high off vaping.
Amen I agree that 98% voltage drop vaping experiences are just a placebo effect.

Clouds tend to look much bigger when you're watching someone else blow them.

Since safety has hardly been touched on in this thread, I feel obligated to at least mention it again. OP, please be safe. At bare minimum, you should own an ohm meter to test your atty and build every so often to verify there aren't any shorts, loose connections, etc. If you heed the advice of some of the members who have commented on this thread, encouraging you to learn how to build yourself, I ask that you don't only rely on what the B&M 'tech's' tell you. Do your own research and familiarize yourself with all aspects of building and battery safety before even trying it.

There are many resource on this thread, Baditude's blog being essential. I'm sure there's even a 'Blow clouds on your helios' thread floating around here in the ether.

Good luck with the changing of the weather, I hope you've found some cheap juice!

Vape happy!
