I think I'm going to do a basic Clapton build - 24AWG Ni80 core with a 36AWG Ni80 just for the lulz. Although I usually ONLY use the 36 for fused, I guess I'll go with the standard Clapton today. 24AWG core or 22AWG core - you guys decide!
Yea ,I don't really go for clouds myself..I'm using the IPVIIs 60watt..I have a istick60tc. The highest I have EVER gone was 40 watts when testing the Billow V2. Before that was 32 watts testing the GMini.
Most of my vaping is done at 17.5 watts and below.
I'm NOT a cloud chaser. I want a satisfying flavorful vspe.
I was at a meeting with Mike (don't know his last name) we were bothb blowing clouds. As we wrapped up we compared wattages. He had his Coolfire4 pegged at 40 watts and I was tootling along at 12.5.
Going big wattage helps clouds but there are other factors
1. Knowing how to build coils.
2. Resistance
3. High VG juices. This is the most important factor

I was just impressed with the plume veil when i was just going for taste..the improvement it had on the vapor production..Just the design with the options of airflow..
The juice I'm vaping just taste better at 25 to 30 watts than it does in the teens..
I can't really do PG without it choking me down at just about any wattage..so it's all vg nic and flavor..
I set all my coils up for taste..
If i was to set this RDA up for clouds, it would probably fog out the room..But I was coming pretty close without even going for clouds..
Just Impressed with the Plume Veil is all..
I know how to build coils and know my laws and all i vape is vg juices..
If you ask me,it's more of a challenge to getting taste right than it is to get clouds.
Personally, I keep things simple. (Keep It Simple, Stupid)
Simple dual coils (open or closed, doesn't really matter).
I've tried so-called enthusiasts' coil who build all the exotic coils, and tried their vape. IMHO, they are no better than my simple coils.
If you enjoy tinkering around with fancy builds, go for it. I don't, I just want to vape.
Hey man, I would just stick with the Crown tank for now if you're not sure what to do just yet. In the meantime you can check out the rebuild section of the forum and look at the sub forums there. The Coil Builds sub forum has a nice picture thread, most of which are complex build, but you do not need to do that.
I would stay with a regulated device like you have now and look at the RDA thread for a purchase decision. You can get really nice vapor production from certain RDAs. I mostly use RTAs, but my favorite RDA right now is the Phenotype-L with simple 24 gauge dual coils with spacing in between the wraps. I don't use it all the time, but it certainly puts out a lot of vapor for that quick nicotine.
Couldn't agree more , now if fancier builds really did make a noticeable flavor difference i would be using them but thats just not the case .
A well wrapped and wicked single or double coil has always performed just as well as the fancier stuff for me .
No disagreement here at all. Plain old coil in the .8-1 ohm of 26 gauge, and can blow decent clouds at less than 20 watts.
