RDA for huge clouds

I just built my first dual coil on a Kanger Sub Plus 7ml. Not getting the wonderful, thick, silky clouds I get with the standard .5 coils. SO, I just bought a shit load of stuff. Including the eVic Supreme (just because the reviews were good AND I could interface with my PC.

I'd like to try dripping - bad. I have 5 mods. 1 for stealth, 2 mini tanks - sigelei spark w/ Tobecco Super, Kanger box nano ki and my main one I use all the time at home since I work at home, Sigelie Fuschai 200w w/Kanger 7ml. I was thinking I made a mistake in buying the eVic. Why? Just because it's big? I was a hair away from buying that alien giant one, can't remember the name.

So, my question is: Do I buy a RDA for my Fuchai and put the Kang 7ml on the eVick? Or, sell the eVick (still unopened) and buy a different mod to switch the kanger to and use the Fuschai for a Drip?

I see that Doge is good among others but that was in 2014-2015. Any advice? I love my flavor, Lost Fog Streek...Streak is cone I think, Lost Art Cottontail Cream and any other yogurt, cream mixed with vanilla'ish flavor and a few drops of menthol for a cool exhale. I don't want to be sitting here until 3am again with 31 windows open trying to decide. Oh, and DO NOT mix menthol with Peach. Ick!!!!! Way Bad. Strawberry is about the same.

As a result of over analyzing everything (last weekend) I wound up getting THIS in the mail this week: Damn it! I deleted the photo before I let it email it to myself to keep. Ugh!

eVic Supreme
12 empty brown bottles w/droppers
10 empty clear botles w/droppers and colored labels
Box of Quad ceramic coils
Large steel funnel for juice mixing
Ohms/Volts Reader
Kanger Subvod Kit for Stealth (may give to my sister - Pink) and get something else.
Smok Tf-T3 Triple coils
I could go on...thought I bought a new tank, but I guess not.

HELP!

One of the best rda's out there is still the Velocity.

Tobeco makes great 1:1 clones and can be had for under $20.

One Here! as an example

Been binge watching vids of Smok tfv4. What a beast. Will consider flavor vs. clouds. Still vacillating over it.

Ok you asked. You'd need lungs of a Grizzly to make it work.
You could put it on a custom lipo box pushing over 1kW, connect it to a shop vac with no filter and the vapor production would likely match a professional stage fog machine.

Unless you like the feeling of sucking on a steam line, I don't see the practicality there.

You can get crazy clouds out of build with 40 watts.

But you want airflow and a decent sized build deck.
I prefer two posts for long horizontal builds.
Three post for vertical builds, both with single and dual coils on each side (quad).
With regulated mods no need to worry about too low of a resistance but I'd stick with >.15Ω to prevent excessive heat build up in the driver boards and prevent hitting the current limiter.

I have lots of RTAs too. They can be a PIA to wick without leaking (Yes, VCMG I'm calling you out!) but flavor and clouds can be quite good. The new Smok RTA with the quad coils is great IME. I chain vape it at 150W on a DNA 200. It clocks in at 155 milliohms (.155Ω) which is just right for a quad build. Disadvantages: 1) Tank gets hot as hell when chain vaping > 100W, and 2) It RIPS through juice but that's expected when you're producing those kinds of clouds.

I have a Tobecco Mini. Works great on my Segilei Spark but need to work on my technique.

@triakis Thanks for the wealth of info! I just ordered the Smok TFV4 today to go with my Segilei Fuchai 200. Should try a different mod for that, huh? I won't be chain vaping. Usually 3-4 draws and I'm good for a while. Still at 24 nic when I can get it. Will drop to 18 when what I have in 24 is gone.

As for builds, I did a double on my 7ml Kanger mini deck the other week. What a PITA! Was great for a few days then burning set in. Yeah, it takes me about 2hrs to get it right. But I'm still a noob. Got 100ml of a few good juices so the Smok won't be a problem there, at least for a while. I bought some twisted kanthol premade coils. Will try them with the Smok. I just like the feel and smooth taste of my juice when thick. I like it like silk rolling off my tongue. My stealth gets me through a few hours but then I want my other rigs. And, I don't have the lungs of a Grizzly. OCD, flat diaphragms. But, I do what I can and like it. Down to 2 cigs a day still.

Thanks again, triakis!

If you want clouds then you want a dripper. The tfv4 is OK but it destroys the premade coils pretty quick and the rebuild able deck is shitty. Cloud wise they are OK but not like a dripper. The closest tank to get clouds like a dripper that I have used is the boreas. Again though I would get a dripper(rda) some suggestions would be the velocity Tobeco Clone $20- $30. The twisted messes squared is supposed to be very good haven't used it yet though. The original twisted messes works very well too. Some honorable mentions the troll, the Kennedy's clone or authentic, freakshow. There's more I can't think of at the moment. Hope this helps.

Smok RT4 (TF4) is crazy. Just shoved four big claptons in there. It gets too hot chain vaping and thins the juice a bit. Big, dense clouds and flavor to boot.
I was at Carlisle this weekend and picked up a rogue mech (copper) mod and topped it with a pure copper goon 24mm rda. It hits pretty hard, in the same class as my rig and subzero setups. I want more though. I want the hit of stainless steel but be able to do 6+ sec hits without it getting hotter than an electric arc furnace! Going to try a double wrap alternating 304SS and clapton kanthal for kicks.

Until the 4S lipo comes in. :D
