11 watts. Alright six! That's what I'm talkin' about.

That's about the top of my range most days. I run a 2.0 ohm hh.357 on my VVPV. In the morning, I'm usually around 4.4v and in the late afternoon I run it around 4.7v. That device only uses one juice (100% VG AVE 555) and ~11w is where the flavor begins to change. Any higher, and I don't care for the flavor, but it doesn't taste "burnt" until close to 12 watts or so.

My other most-used device has been around 9 watts since the 4th of july. I run a 2.5 ohm i06 on my REO VVW at ~4.7v. The juice is some DIY grape my wife's cousin made (I don't know what pg/vg ratio he uses) and that juice begins to change flavor for the worse around 9.5 watts.

I'd still like to know what you are using that can deliver 4 amps!

Any mechanical mod with IMR batts can do it. And quite a few VV box mods with linear regulators can do it if the switch is rated high enough and also assuming using IMRs.

I vaped dual coils almost exclusively for about three months last year. My rough stacks with stacked lifep04 batts or IMR batts did fine with 1.5 ohm dual coils even though the switches are rated for 3 amps. They handled 4+ amps without issue.

I usually run between 6.5 to 8.7 watts. However, Darwin can deliver! This pic is 5.4 amps, 12.7 watts. Not recommended.

Nano posted it... so there's a reason. We just don't know what it is offhand. lol. (Waits.......)

EDIT: Also the wattage calc with those (rounded/truncated) numbers comes out to around 16.4 I think.....so something is.... adjusted.

3 volts at 0.5499 ohms = 5.45554 amps and 16.36661 watts

I was thinking the same thing. Also sort of wondering what version that darwin is. I recall from the big smoke tech dual coil thread that Stownz darwin cut out at 3.33 amps - 5.0v in to a 1.5 dc was the max.

Oh, oh! Darwin porn! Can they make it with a longer arm so I can put a carto tank on it?

You could use one of these
