What wattage is your favorite for flavor alone.

Hey guys a friend reminded me of this question I've had myself before: Why do I see other people claiming they get better flavor at 20 watts? I explained to her that because she uses a kanger tank and stock carto/wicks that her device basically can't keep up with the wicking for her to do that, as she says the highest wattage she can get before destroying flavor and even vapor is at 6.8. I remarkably had the exact experience (I worked mine down to 6.81 (1.8ohm coil at 3.5 volts on the dot) with my aspire et-s, and often wandered what I was doing wrong myself. I mean if I literally bumped the control over to 3.52 on accident it would become noticeable so these cartos must be very precise/finnicky. Once I later started dripping on a trident, and made my own epic wicks, I found out that's what it came down to.

-What is ECF's experience with this? Similar? Was I right in my explanation, does it basically come down to how fast your wick can replace the juice, or is it maybe just the fact that it's submerged more?

-Thanks for any enlightenment on this topic, it's still fuzzy to me to be honest, sometimes I still prefer 6.81 watts depending on the coil.

Single coil cartomizers I stuck around 9 watts..I never really used clearomizers.. didn't like them. I'm around 20watts with my kayfuns..around 30 with dual coil drippers.

It's all about wicking, and a tiny bit more about airflow to what heat an atomizer can give you for efficient vapor. The liquid also plays a huge roll. Some can't put up with 10 watts. Some shine around or above 20watts.
