Doesn't the RBA have coils installed? Get some Native Wicks, Cotton Bacon or other good cotton and wick 'er up.
If no coils are installed for some reason, lots of premade coils out there. Figure out what resistance you want and buy from almost anywhere.

Start low and gradually increase until you get a vape you like.

What KenD says. There is no real "safe wattage" for everyone.
Personally, I would be anywhere from 40-60w with 0.35ohm Claptons.
Just start drawing clouds out of my new BBB a few minutes ago. My RBA came with 2 Claptons installed, no wicks. On careful inspection I noticed the coil leaning up against the post they are mounted in. Pushed it away with a small flat screw driver. I got some complimentary wick (and 2 coils) with a juice I bought from Cake and was just going to go for it. Thinking I better do some reading before I burn something up first :<0) I got this to try the temp control on my Reuleaux 2/3 as all the BB coils seem to be made of Kanthal which just makes my MOD kick back to watts.
The coils for this device have a best wattage on the outside of the coil.
I use premade coils as well. There is v8 baby x4, v8 baby t6 and v8 baby t8. I prefer the t8 but the amount of juice usage and wattage varies so take the time to experience what you like best!
He's referring to pre-built coils for the RBA section. You're thinking of the factory built coils.
I'm a man, and I can change, if I have to, I guess.
I've got the big baby beast, it came with a Smoketech G priv 220 kit. I'm using the tank with the baby, nickel coils, in the temp mode 360 F. Nice vapor and flavor.
Oh haha. Okay. The RBA still has best wattage on the outside
I've been using this tank for about a month. The coils seem to start losing flavor after about a week. I vape 60vg 40 pg juice. At 55 to 60 watts (I am using the t8) what is the normal longevity for the coil. I vape all day everyday
I use 80 PG 20 VG and use temp mode at 360 F that's about 30 to 35 W. PG is thinner and carries the flavor while the VG is for vapor production. For the heck of it I tried using higher temps, just to see the results, whatever temp I felt like trying, let the coils be dammed. Result after about a weeks time a loss of flavor and vapor. The VG and PG will begin vaporizing at 300 to 350 F, cotton begins burning at 400 F but that's dry and not soaked in glycerin.
We got an awesome kit for winding and testing coils. @Islandswamp

I just finished making my own dual SS Calpton coil, it read .420 ohms on my Coil master meter the same as I have for an original Smok coil. After wicking and trying it In the vaporizer it won't work at the .420 ohm setting the vaporizer puts in .290 ohms and it works. On the Coil Master it now reads .31 ohms. I have two tanks with RBA in them it would be nice if I could get the same resistance in both of them, maybe I'll try again, take a look at the coil and see if anything is pulling it down first.
Right now I'm unable to purchase all the stuff I want (like coil building supplies). I could use my mod to read the coil's resistance, but I've heard that is less than ideal. I also lack the proper tools to make coils right now. And there's no local vape shop for me to find people to help, so I'm just going to wait.
Same here, I'd like to have the Eleaf Pico 25 but..
I did use the mods for resistance and finally bought a Coil Master. I did have a simpler coil ohm reader but it stopped working. I've been using 5, 6, or 7 twisted pairs of SS 32 gauge wires that is wound on 2.5 or 3 mm rods about 8 turns, I stop there but in the vids they like to cover it with 32 gauge wire wrapped the length. My coils are coming out pretty good and my wicking has improved.
