Wow. I ALWAYS vape 8+ watts (the + depends on the juice). I'm surprised to hear a few people vaping such low wattage. Even with my nautilus tanks I was 8-14 depending on the juice. Just tried the doodle in my Taifun @ 1.3 ohm single w/ cotton at various wattages. Below 8 I can't hardly taste it, 10 it starts getting there, 11 is pretty good, 13 is WOW. Subtract about 1 watt for the nautilus from what I can remember comparing the Taifun to the Nautilus.
