Just to add to this thread, I agree with the above, somewhat.
But what isn't clarified is how far you can go. Based on what you said, I decided to up the temp in replay mode, above what is recommended for the coil. So now for example I've upped it to 300 degrees c which is 572F. Above what the coils can take, but it gives me a good vape. I guess it is about having the "guts" to just do as you say, up the power until you get the hit you want. Don't pay attention to the wattage limits, I'm sure the mod will keep it safe.
