Thicker clouds, not bigger

[BigDoctorJ]

Hi everyone, been messing around with my igo-w trying to find that "perfect" vape for me. Currently running dual coils collectively at 0.6 ohms on a k100 mech. The vapor cloud seems big enough for me but I was wondering how I can make thicker clouds? I have 30/70 pg/vg mix so I think I'm good on the juice side. I noticed that as I went lower with sub ohms the vapor became hotter and thinner. I like the size of the cloud but wanted to see if I can make them thicker. Any help is much appreciated.

I've noticed this myself with my IGO-L. Running it 1ohm on a Nemmy clone with 50/50 liquid. Vapor production is nice, but it's not as thick as my PT2 which I really like. Wish I could help, but at least I can get it bumped up!

sounds like lack of airflow. heat is the best indication of this. as far as getting the clouds thicker, i'm assuming that would be directly related to the efficiency of your coil(s). i would try drilling out your airhole (assuming we're talking about an rda here) and see how that works. the clouds will require less effort, and if your coils are working fine the density should be there as well.

Will do I thought the flow might be an issue but I've snapped 3 titanium drill bits trying to add a hole. Guess I might have to take it to my local b&m or buy one with 2 already in it.

use some Diamond bits. that'll never fail Lol, or a drill press maybe.

Thicker clouds? ... Thicker juice. Up your VG ratio, this is one of the main reasons that VG lovers, love it! Most especially if you are using a dripper.

I'm at 70% vg now, unfortunately I don't mix my own and the place I go doesn't carry 100% vg. I'm not if even like it that high

Back to the hardware store

I'm happy with my IGO-Ws vapor production. It has 2-3/32 holes.

Get a dremel and a pointed stone grinding tip. Works like a charm. Everyone should own a Dremel, anyway.

Kind of a stupid suggestion, but try blowing out the vapor more slowly. That is one of the many "tricks" the guys on youtube use to make their clouds seem so impressive.

Also try using cotton wicks and experimenting with different amounts pushed through the coils. The more you can get your coil to "hiss" and the less it "crackles and pops", the denser the vapor will be. This is because the heat won't be wasted chucking large droplets all over the inside of your atty, and will be used to make actual vapor. How this is actually accomplished depends on a lot of factors and will take some trial and error, but I am convinced it has something to do with wick density and compression after everything is broken in.

And as others have stated, you will need to drill out your air holes to effectively handle a 0.6 ohm dual coil. Just buy a drill bit that is made for drilling through stainless steel. The smallest I can find at local hardware stores is 1/16" and this results in a pretty airy draw for 2 holes (but I find it perfect for 1 hole).

For your 0.6 ohm dual coil I would drill dual 1/8" air holes. Direct lung pull should make nice thick clouds.

Well I bought a nimbus with 2 1/8 holes. The guy at the b&m said that's how they build theirs. I wish I hadn't so I could slowly increase the size. I draw is super airy but now I finally understand direct lung inhale lol. Huge clouds and very thick although next to no throat hit. God I love tinkering around with this stuff

Oh and I do use cotton wick. I strictly build micro coils as I find them much easier to handle. Less prone to shorts it seems. I've even experimenting with different ohms and different builds. So far this nimbus is top notch. Little airy but huge clouds

Nikitta she right up the VG

and yas want them clouds to not get bigger,,,, dont run a fan in house or use ur air conditioning, that should keep your "cloud" all in one piece..........................

True, I started as a flavor chaser and it appears I've fallen into the cloud chasing label now. I know some people think it's dumb or unnecessary but I have to say blowing out a huge flavorful cloud is VERY satisfying IMHO

Holy moly the more I use this nimbus the better! I finally have my fog machine lol
