[What's the story with high wattage mods?]

I am relatively new to vaping, my current favorite set up is a K box mini 75W TC with a Sence Herakles Plus tank .4ohm Clapton coil.

 

I have been looking at other mods out there and don't understand why someone would buy a mod that goes up to 300w , 200w or even 100w for that matter. Mine goes to 75w and I never run it at even close to that high power. With a .4 coil I keep min set at about 27w. Any higher and it starts to taste burnt and the vape is hot. I have tried different coils and tanks (Kanger top tank sun ohm, Crown 2, Nautilus mini) and the hottest I have ever run my was around 50w. What's the use for these hi wattage output mods?

 

I know this is a noob question and appreciate the input.

 

Flavor and vapor production mostly however it gets a little ridiculous. There are only certain types of tanks and coils that can even handle that much power. A lot of it is the marketing gimmick, that everyone wants the most powerful device out there. Most people don't vape anywhere near the 2-300 wattage mark all day long. If you're new you're better off sticking with mods that operate under 100W. Even for intermediate vapers 100W mods work fantastic. It's not too much power while still allowing you to get your feet wet.
