How come I can't go over 18 watts with a .45 ohm build using the rba v2 without getting burnt hits? I always thought the lower the ohms the higher the watts!! Is it the way I'm wicking it?

1: well if you wick tight, then the wicking is slower and more likely to get dry hits if chainvaping or too high watts.
if you wick loose, then the wicking is faster, and more likely to get flooding.
gotta find the right balance for your particulars.
2: Lower ohms alone does not mean higher watts.
How thick is the eliquid you are using?
The thicker the eliquid the more you will need to close down the AFC to get it to feed.
whats the coils gauge anything under 26ga and it will be hot or you have a hot spot in your coil..
If I make a .45 32ga coil and try vaping that at 15 watts it can be a hot experience but if use 24ga its cool and barely produces vapor..

I just wrapped a 24 gauge.39 ohms and rewicked and it's all good now Vaping at 28 watts and it's perfect lol
I believe lower gauge I.e 24 more watts and higher gauge i.e 28 lower watts, already that's wat I'm finding.
Logic would reason that 30 gauge coil headed up faster this quicker chance of burning wick and a 24 gauge hearts up slower so it don't burn the quick so quick
With a regulated power supply the size of the wire does not matter. 30W of heat is the same from a thick wire or thin wire. The difference is how spread out that heat is.
If you do a contact 24awg coil with a 2.5mm OD and a contact 28awg 2.5mm OD coil as long as they cover the same width they will vape the same at the same wattage.
Well except the 28awg will heat up faster.
