I’ll tell you this.
I have a few big loves in my life. Apart from the usual wife and kids thing, one is vaping on my SvoeMesto prime (18W, round wire SS316-26g/10 wraps, 35mg-40PG/60VG). Another is vaping my Kennedy 25 (110W, fused clapton aliens, SS316 3x28g-38g/5 wraps, 3mg-20PG/80VG).
If we played the aliens game, or the FDA, and they would come and take all my vapes, I’d have a hard time picking which I would replace. Both are equally dear to me, both hit me in the throat equally I’d say, and they couldn’t be further apart in style and method.

It’s kind of funny though. When I go out, I always bring the Prime, as I find chucking huge clouds in public not that chique. However, after I while my mind always wanders off to the Kennedy.
After chucking a few clouds, I then long back to the prime. I tried a few juices with higher nic content thinking that that was the key here but no. I just love both equally and must have both.
I use a tank every now and then, mostly either the Kylin 2 or the Voopoo Rimfire at the moment, as some kind of ‘in between’ solution, when I know I’ll want to chuck a cloud but can’t be bothered dripping. When I travel, or need to take a long drive for example. But those I still vape at 95-105W.
Other tanks I just can’t vape that high. Mostly 50-70W for dual coil, 30-50 for single coils.

I vape chocolate mint and noticed i can vape mint at lower wattage. 20% alcohol is not that much when you look at the recipe and see that only a small amount of mint goes into the batch. But alcohol may be why i can vape at 20 watts.
Man I waded through that whole sucker to say two things:
Who cares, you vape where you enjoy vaping, congrats. Now, you are like every other sane vaper who is at THEIR range and does not need to mentally .........e about it. Come on.
For someone so "VG" conscious and how it needs to be all organic and natural, you sure due suck down a ton of alcohol and oil. That MAY be your lungs being completely intolerant of the type of eliquid that would um, cause problems in your lungs.
You know, arsenic is all natural and can be very pure and expensive and I still would not suggest vaping it. Especially at 20% or 15% or whatever.
Having some ETOH in your vape is probably fine, and vaping what you vape is probably better than smoking. PROBABLY.
But this tendency to demonize the "new" or "untested." It can be kind of a crappy theory, there is tons of "new" stuff about these days that has been show to be not only useful, but inherently safe, that does not occur in nature.
Vape what you want, but you are not going to convince me that your flavoring is safe, that homeopathy works (although placebo does) and really you are the type I would expect to see vaping UNFLAVORED, you are so paranoid. You should vape your silky smooth VG base on its own and avoid ANY danger.
I also bet if you DID that you could turn the wattage up quite a bit. Maybe give it a shot sometime.

I'm vaping at 25w right now. Using a single coil RTA, with 24g Kanthal at .5 ohms. I'll inhale for 2-3 seconds, but only hold the fire button for 1-2 seconds. I'll sometimes go up as high as 30w, but for some reason I've been getting dry/burnt hits lately so I'm keeping the power a bit low.
I think it's just purely preference.
I build dual coils around .12 and I vape at 130 Watts.
40 or 50 watts just does absolutely nothing for me. 80 watts does nothing.
I want to be punched in the throat when I hit my mod.

47.5% is 95 proof and wouldn't that ignite..? 
I vape at 115-140w and don't understand why people vape so low.... anything under 100 with the coils I use and I don't even taste the juice. I also use a mason rda with airflow wide open and juggernaut coils (2-26/.1*4/2-36) at .12ohm so I kinda need some power...

It does. I learned the hard way.

Some mtl rtas just have a hard time going to 30, but if it's sort of a mtl/dtl rta that's kind of made to handle those wattages, than perhaps it's just the last wick job. At least in my experiences, if I get a dry hit, usually it's under wicked and I can actually hear it. There is always a faint sizzle sound as you release the fire button and if that sizzle goes on slightly longer then usual, it's under wicked and dry hitting or very close to hitting dry. If over wicked in these wattages, most of the time it's just muted flavor rather than dry hits.

I do have a tendency to trim the tails a bit too much, so it probably is underwicked, though I've replaced it twice now. Guess it's time to re-learn wicking technique.
At 11.5 watts I get seasick from taking really long drags.
Nope, I meant 10 amps...most of my favorite builds are 0.4 ohms @ 4 volts...no matter the wire I always do the math before I start. 10 amps keeps me around 50% of most of my batteries CDR or even less on some.
