RDA build

I know, but often they are not. OP listed fused claptons and specifically was trying to understand why they are often low resistance.

Ah. Fuse Clapton’s have multiple core wires so they’re effectively multiple coils. I’ve never had particularly good luck with exotic coils myself. For me they just take longer to heat and cool, and gunk up faster.

I've had the most success using low mass single core claptons in tanks, I haven't been able to fathom why this is as yet.

Me too. The only exotic I’m running atm is a single core 22/40 clapton. The outer wire is thinner than hair and is spaced a bit (mostly because I had to hand wrap it). It works pretty well.

Dual single core 26/32 in a TFV8, no other coil type can match this in terms of flavor and performance (for me).

Exotic coils like claptons as opposed to simple round wire coils will contain a lot of metal and as a consequence will have a low resistance. Please go back and read what I posted and specifically the article I linked to.
To reiterate, for all intents and purposes a regulated mod does not care what the coil resistance is. You set the wattage, and the mod delivers this wattage to the coil. You may be getting confused with unregulated devices like mechanical mods where the coil resistance is what dictates the power level.

To answer your question about how this pertains to your batteries on a regulated mod, the wattage you select will dictate the amp draw not the coil resistance. Have a read of the article below to see how this is calculated.

Mooch just made a video talking about batteries and regulated mods. Its really interesting and very helpful ... Thank you for helping me and your replies r highly appreciated.

Is there a particular reason you are looking for a hot vape? I personally have found that for me a dual coil at around .4-.6ohm can give a very flavorful vape without feeling like im sucking on a steam pipe (though if thats what tickles your pickle more power too ya).

In general flavor builds end up being in the higher ohm range than cloud/fog out builds. like @Baditude said running in a 30-40 watt range with mid range sub-ohm build is a great flavor vape, plus the battery longevity is higher. you may not get the 1-2 day runtime that @stols001 would get with her setup, but it will be orders of magnitude longer than at .15 and 90watts.

Its subjective i guess, I enjoyed hot vape more than warm vape. However, I am just asking and learning from you guys and from your experiences. Thank you very much for your reply its helpful.

You mean you build this in TFV8 BRA? Am I right? ... I have the TFV8 x-baby tank and TFV12 prince tank, I have ordered the RBA COIL for each. I would try these coils when I get them.

 

[sonicbomb]

The TFV8 Big Baby RBA comes with a spaced clapton which works well. I replaced mine with home made dual 26/32 contact claptons.

I have a question regarding the best RDA build to get warm-hot vape, best flavour and to vape around 70 to 90 watt.
what is the best wire to use ? best ohm? which better .1 ohm or .2 ohm? I am kinda confused coz i have tried many different wires and built before .. tri-core fused clapton ni80, fused clapton ni80 26-36 wire or 28-36 ... etc.

Welcome and glad you joined.
The information below can give you some opinions regarding the best. RDA's are the way to go.

I found Flavor and warm = hot build is tricky. The flavor mix (delicate balance of PG/VG, flavor,flavor percentages all play a role in how flavor is perceived. Wattage, coil construction, juice just to name a few variables are subjective.
