I am sure that many of you have been surrounded by the bothers in seeking of huge vapor and today, Ceci have accumulated some ways for you to get huge vapor during your vaping. Only a look at this passage will have you known the solutions.

 

What type of atomizer to use?

While smaller atomizers like the Aspire BDC are great for everyday, and more discreet use, to get really big clouds, you’re going to need a low resistance sub ohm atomizers like the Aspire Atlantis, Aspire Cleito or the Innokin iSub V. The Atlantis features a BVC (bottom vertical coil) with a low resistance of 0.5ohms. The BVC coils give less air resistance and more vapour than the still great BDC atomizers.

 

Like the Atlantis, the coils on the Cleito were designed for vapour and flavour, using a dual “Clapton” coil design and keeping the resistance low at 0.2 or 0.4 ohms. The iSub V has both BVC and Clapton coils, in addition to standard (but still low-resistance options) To use the Aspire Atlantis or other sub ohm tanks, you need a battery powerful enough for sub ohm resistances. Here are three compatible batteries (read on for more information about these devices):

  • Aspire CF Sub Ohm (fixed voltage)
  • Council of Vapour Mini Volt 40 W (variable wattage)
  • Innokin Coolfire IV TC100 (variable wattage and temperature control)
  • These are all great devices, but if you’re relatively new to e-cigs, they can seem a bit expensive.

 

The Aspire Nautilus Mini features the same BVC coil design as the Atlantis and enjoys increased flavour and vapour production but at higher resistance, meaning it is compatible with a wide range of batteries including variable voltage and standard eGo batteries.

 

How to set airflow settings for maximum clouds

More airflow means more cooling capacity and more vapour. The more air you can get over your coil, the lower you can keep the temperature. The temperature should be low enough so that you do not burn your wick caused by excessive power, or insufficient airflow. Keeping the temperature low minimises the risk of burning your wick because it keeps everything cooler, but also brings a fresh flow of air into the mix and encourages condensation of the vapour into a cloud. Do you know how to prevent burnt coil?

 

By increasing the air going over your coil, you’re giving your device the chance to make more vapour. As e-liquid is vaporized, the space above the coil becomes “saturated” with vapour, and the only way more can be created is if some condenses back into e-liquid. This effectively prevents new vapour from being created if your airflow is completely closed off (or close to it). Having air flowing rapidly across the coil removes this “old” vapour and allows it to be replaced by “new vapour.” This means you get more vapour than you would with less airflow, because you’re providing a constant supply of fresh air to be filled with vapour. This is really only one of the reasons vapour production increases with more airflow, though.

Another, more important factor – explained excellently in an old ECF post – is that when you vape, it’s not really “vapour” you’re visibly exhaling. It’s actually an “aerosol,” which means a mist of liquid droplets. In other words, condensation is actually what you need for big clouds, as long as you have enough air to pull the condensed aerosol out of the chamber. The airflow over your coil cools down the vapour, and this makes it condense into liquid droplets. So the more airflow you have, the more condensation there is and the more visible “vapour” (i.e. aerosol) you produce.

 

The extra airflow also “dilutes” the vapour with more air, which has the effect of puffing it out. It’s been compared to cotton candy – the more air that’s in the mix, the bigger and fluffier it seems. You can go too far and get wispy vapour, but in most cases, more air is a good thing for cloud-chasing.

 

Adjusting Your Power Settings for Maximum Clouds

The simple lesson here is that more power generates bigger clouds. If you vape at 60 W you’ll get much bigger clouds than when you’re vaping at 30 W, as long as it’s with the same tank and e-juice. It seems easy (and it is), but there are a couple of other things to bear in mind before you go cranking it up to 100 W. When you increase the power flowing through the coil (in your atomizers), you increase the amount of heat generated, which is one of the reasons you need that extra airflow.

Which battery should I use?

Your choice of battery is important. A regulated box mod can provide variable voltage and variable wattage giving you a wide range of settings to explore. On the other hand, simpler devices often use a fixed voltage. Both types of device can work for cloud-chasers, but mods with variable wattage are usually preferred. The more you are able to adjust the power range on your battery, the more you can fine-tune the battery to your atomizers and air resistance to hit your vaping sweet spot. This is because the more you are able to adjust the power range on your battery, the more you can fine-tune the battery to your atomizers and air resistance to hit your vaping sweet spot.

 

Variable Wattage or Variable Voltage?

When using a regulated box mod, we would recommend variable wattage over variable voltage, as it adjusts the voltage input automatically to allow for the resistance of the coil (which can vary very slightly according to the temperature it is at). In other words, if you vape at 4 V with a 0.5 ohm coil and with a 1 ohm coil, the vapour production and performance will be different with each coil. But it you vape at 50 W on both coils, the performance will be consistent.

 

How does coil resistance affect vapor production?

The resistance of the coil plays an important role in the amount of vapour that can be produced by your e-cig. The lower the resistance, the easier it is to achieve high temperatures. Furthermore, a lower resistance coil will reach the higher temperatures required to produce more vapour more quickly. Although low resistance has a big part to play in this, some wire types also heat faster than others. In general, the bigger the wire, the longer it takes to heat up.

 

As long as the tank can keep up with the wicking demands of high-wattage vaping, you can get great vapor production on higher-ohm coils too. That said, with sub ohm atomizers being so common, as long as you have a capable battery there’s not much reason to choose a higher-resistance one. Unless you prefer a tighter airflow (which is more common with higher-resistance coils), sub ohm atomizers are the way to go. You can upgrade your BDC atomizers with a BVC coil for increased flavor and vapor production. Click here to view the BVC coil upgrades for BDC atomizers.

The Best E-Liquid for Clouds

The e-liquid you choose will make a difference in the amount of vapour produced.

More PG – More throat hit

More VG – More vapour

 

Whether you are using a CE5 or a sub ohm atomizers, the ratio of PG to VG will make a big difference to the quantity of vapor produced. It’s important to know that when you go beyond 50% VG, the e-liquid can become quite thick which which can cause problems in some atomizerss. This isn’t usually a problem with sub ohm clearomizers, though.
(Note: Our e-liquids are in the process of being switched to a 50/50 pg/vg ratio.)

 

For big clouds, choose an e-liquid with a 50/50 PG/VG ratio, or higher VG. High PG e-liquids are not good for producing lots of vapor and can be quite harsh on your throat. E-liquid strength is also important when using lower resistances. When I use an Aspire BDC, I use a 1.8% e-liquid on an Aspire BDC atomizers. On the Atlantis & other sub ohm atomizerss, I use 0.6%. That’s a big difference in strength. The bottom line is: when you produce more vapour, you get more nicotine, so you should adjust your nicotine strength to compensate. Some e-liquids come in 0.3 % nicotine for this reason.

Inhaling Technique – When you’re not sucking hard enough

 

Yes, I just used that title! To get lots of vapour, you need enough airflow to cool the coil and help your cloud condense. Even when the airflow setting on your atomizers is at maximum, it’s no good if you’re not inhaling enough to make use of it. When I’ve given a low resistance device to a friend who is more used to CE5’s, 9 times out of 10 they will not inhale enough and start coughing.

 

They’re using the same device with the same wattage and airflow, but while I’m happily blowing clouds, they’re often left coughing. Why? If you don’t inhale (suck) hard and fast enough, you won’t get enough air over the coil to cool it sufficiently, the coil heats up and the vapour can get uncomfortably hot. It seems counter intuitive, but the harder you inhale, the less harsh the vape will be. Once you’ve got over this, it’s easy.
