Easy answer for me that is :

Drop Rda with 3mm Id coils (resistance between .3-.2 depending on how i feel)
Gbox squonker at 92 watts (my coils are.18 at this moment)
Mostly a flavor chaser and omg my harambe from 12 monkeys is very nice on this hot spring evening (as of writting this i'm officially in shorts, shirtless lol)
Some would say i'm more into clouds but recently i've been looking with my vape shops for a rebuildable mtl tank as clouds even though fun, make me a human fog machine inside :lol::lol:

I have several devices and picking a favorite is kinda hard but if I had to choose right now I would say my Vapor Shark DNA200 with my Kayfun V5. This combo has never let me down and has great flavor and easy to use. I prefer a restricted direct lung hit or MTL. Most of the coils I use are .5 to 1 ohm. I used to go for the big clouds and always looking for a way to get more vapor out of everything I had. These days I am more about the flavor and I don't want the big clouds. I can understand why people get into cloud chasing but that just isn't something I can get excited about anymore. In the end, the best setup is one that keeps you from smoking.

OBS engine with some sort of dual SS Clapton on a Therion or Triade or some other DNA mod in temp control. I like the vape experience in temp control over power mode.

I rotate through other tanks but come back to the engines out of easy pocketability without worrying about leaks. I vape for flavor, clouds aren't a thing for me.

    I hate a fairly strange setup that works well for me for very specific reasons:

    Geekvape Zeus
    any Vapefly coil (in a 48 pack of 8 coil types each one costs about 3 cents) rewrapped to 3.5mm inner diameter, depending on the wire the resistance is usually between 0.45-0.75 Ohm
    35W
    Organic cotton wicks made using the Scottish roll technique with the outer layers of cotton still on
    DIY juice 0 nicotine 100% PG
    Triple battery mod

    What this setup does for me: super easy lung hits (no resistance on the draw), lots of flavor, not too much vapor (due to 100PG), no leaking ever (due to dense wicks and top airflow), massive battery life (spreading the load between multiple batteries means they work longer and age slower than they would if used separately with the same load), infinite chainvaping potential (tank does not overheat due to single coil at relatively low watts, super fast refilling due to top cap being on a bayonet mount instead of threads).

    If you feel like you are not ready to go nicotine-free, you will probably need to use a liquid with less than 100% PG to reduce throathit, and perhaps less dense wicking to compensate for the higher viscosity of VG.

    Yes that is the strangest I've seen .....that pg must be insanely sweet

    I am very new to this, but I already have a spot at least for now. If we imagine a line and on one side is flavor and on the other is clouds, 2/3rds of my body is in flavor. It's sick, how much money I've already spent trying to find the perfect flavor. :eek:
    My "setup" is really simple. It's an Innokin Cool Fire IV, with an iSub G sub-ohm tank, .5, 30 watts, very straightforward. So much so that I'm already seeing faults with it; well, not the mod so much as the tank, which fills from the bottom and IMO is a pain to clean. If I hadn't already spent far over the budget's limit for this new venture I'd have already bought a different tank to replace it, but I think I can convince someone this would be a great Mothers' Day gift. ;)
    My juices of choice are currently Cuttwood Sugar Drizzle followed closely by Om Vapors' Mindful Monkey. I vape either 0 or 3mg nic, whatever is available.

    Paranormal dna 75c, topped with an original kay prime with tank extension. Coils are ss316l, 0.3mm, id 2.5mm, about 0.8 ohm. Temp control set on 450°F, 17 watts. Filled with random liquids from Tom Klark, 6mg nic. Mtl or restricted dl, depending on daytime and mood...
    Works great for me and keeps me away from stinkies.

    Hey Ionori, not strange at all. I also vape 100%PG at low nic levels though I do it at lower watts and less airflow, and mostly with single battery mods :)

    Whatever works for us is the right thing for us. Vape on :thumb:

    Cloud chaser but for my own entertainment, I actually feel bad if my cloud hits another person.
    I have several mods but hands down fav is my Smoant Cylon, this thing just rocks my world.
    Atty for my fav is a toss up between my theimis mesh and the aromanizer plus (I have the gunmetal and on order the SS and black + mod kits) to the point I have pretty much retired my other tanks.
    My mesh is around .18 or so.
    I usually build coils 3mm at around .35 tho I am still experimenting.
    Wattage hovers around 30 and with TC around 300F.
    Cant stand hot vapor.

    I turn up my nose at very little that is MTL... I use RTAs and drop in tanks, and there is no way I could pick a favorite, OR really a favorite mod, but I appear to have been willing to give provari a large market share as I got up and going with MTL. I have other setups I like, too, there are times TC can be useful, especially if I'm out of the house and vaping only a few setups.

    Have yet to try a squonker. LOL.
