iStick 20w, Nautilus Mini, 1.6 - 1.8 ohms.

6.8w - I've proven to myself it's not possible to vape Castle Long 12ml nic at 8w on this setup without burning the coil.

I read everywhere about people vaping at much higher wattage and it just leaves me confused.

I appreciate that sub-ohming requires more watts, but guess that these systems are only creating the heat I'm getting at 6.8w on my setup, or else everyone's using a very different juice.

Still new to all this, so maybe I'm missing something?

I have my DNA40 set to 10.5 W right now, on a 0.21 Ω coil made out of 0.5x0.2mm Ni200 ribbon.

The temperature limit is set as low as 340°F, because both the RTA and the mod have springs in them.

I read everywhere about people vaping at much higher wattage and it just leaves me confused.
The wattage depends on the surface area of the coil(s). The coil in your atomizer is on the smaller end of the scale, which is why it doesn't require a lot of power.

Now I'm curious what's your mechanical mod? the patriot rda is AMAZING btw I've been admiring that and the dodge v2 from afar for awhile now
I've been using an Altsmoke Silver Bullet mechanical mod for nearly 3 years. I used to work in a vape shop, and I've yet to find a better reasonably priced mechanical mod than the SB.

Vapor Shark rDNA 40 watt: 35 watts at 420 degrees, single nickel 200 30 gauge build at 0.2, 2.0 IDC, 13 full wraps using the El Cabron Slick RDA using the LG 2500mah 35A 18650 Battery), usual e liquid: Shipwrecked's Caribbean Cask 80vg/20pg, 5 mg (banana/cream/whiskey/honey - SWEET!).....this is my tasty vape production set up...but on a usual basis I usually just use the Panzer mech with a Doge X RDA at 0.3 single build (I never build under 0.2, too hot a vape for me)
