Thank you that did help, I didn’t understand what ‘subohmer’ means but I think I got the gist. I do appreciate it. I think the dinner lady juice I have has 3mg nicotine (haven’t got it with me but if I remember correctly). I thought that would have an affect also.The amount of wattage applied to a flavor can change it significantly. You may be kind of stuck in a bad place with your (very) sub0hm coil, and balancing the amount of wattage you need to get decent vapor production versus a more subtle or less flavored juice in the tank.
If you like it in your MTL setup why not save it for that? Sub0hmers will (sometimes, especially if high wattage) ask for extra flavor in their juices, due to the fact that the type of sub0hming you are at can result in some flavor loss (why, I have no idea other than the amount of vapor being produced can be overwhelming, or merely running at higher wattages may require more flavorful juice.
You can continue to experiment, certainly, but I might consider experimenting with other (and perhaps more strongly flavored) juices. If I were vaping an e-liquid MTL, I'd probably also want to get a lower nicotine setup as well (and possibly on the higher VG side) since if your vapor production rises, you will be getting far more nicotine per puff than on a small, MTL device.
Best of luck as you experiment!

The lowest I’ve tested was 50w, I’ll try 40w and work my way back up and try and get where it has to be. Just a newbie at this lol thank you!
ohhh okay I’m going to try it at the same wattage and I’ll post back with an update! Thank you!
Ok so I’ve tried it at 118w, had 4-5 decent drags. I can taste more flavour but I think the nicotine of 3mg may be taking effect toward the “burning” or the “dry” sensation at the back of my throat. I know it’s not the coil dying out as I’ve just about put the 0.15ohm T8 cool in today. So my only assumption would be the nicotine of 3mg. If that is the case, then I’ll just have to deal with it with a new lesson learned for next time. Also, you mentioned you’re using the 0.15ohm coil too, are you also using the same juice (dinner lady - Lemon tart)?
I really do appreciate the effort you’ve made to explain this to a newbie thank you. I’ll try my luck with a recommendation at my local vape shop. Perhaps he’ll know which atomiser/coils would better suit my style of vape, and the smok 220wNo.
So in my experience, prime time settings usually hover around the 4.2V mark. Which for a 0.15 coil is just under 120W.
I wouldn't be surprised, being that it's a pre-made coil, it's unable to wick quickly enough to support vaping at that wattage. Normally when you get builds this low, you're using an RDA/RTA/RSA/RDTA with big massive cotton wicks sitting directly in a pool of juice.
Let's compare for fun:
The juice is coming in from those little dinky rectangles on the sides:
In this case, the big wicks are literally sitting on a puddle of juice:
I'm not going to be able to solve your problem I think. Someone else will have to chime in. But from someone sitting on the outside I think the problem is a design problem. 120W to get to 4.2V, but then with little wicking area to support that kind of juice consumption.
poking some holes through the cotton (assuming on the side) ? Haven’t heard that before. Still open minded though!
Read about it somewhere for my Uwell Crown ages ago but saw a video from Rip the other night about solving dry hits in a Smok Baby so I'd go as far as to try it. The video was on YouTube showing his technique.
With my smok set up, i went big. The tfv12 king. I get plenty of flavor from it, using the different coil combos they offer. I usually stay within the wattage range printed on the side of the coil, roughly the middle of whatever it says. Smok coils used to have a nasty new cotton taste for the first couple tankfuls, but i think they have improved this.No.
