What's the difference between 0.6 and 1.2 ohm coil?

The 0.6ohm coil is perfect for hybrid sub vaping that want more clouds and low nicotine dosage. The new 1.2ohm coil is for true mouth to lung vaping and perfect for high nicotine dosage without flavourloss.

What do the numbers on a vape mean?

What do those numbers mean for you the vapor? General rule of thumb is the lower the ohm(lower the number) the harder the hit, more vapor, warmer the vape, and shorter the battery life before recharging.

How many ohms should my vape be?

The standard or regular level of ohm when it comes to vaping and your clearomizer is between 2.4 and 2.8. This is by far the most common ohm range chosen by those looking for replacement coils, with the most commonly chosen being 2.5.

What does ohm on vape mean?

ResistanceResistance (Ohm, Ω) Ohms are units of resistance. The lower the resistance of your atomizer, the larger the amount of current flowing through it. If you increase resistance, the atomizer receives less current.

Kanthal Wire Resistance Chart

This chart will show you the approximate resistance of different sizes of kanthal wire as well as different lengths.

Amp Discharge Rate Chart

This chart provided useful information about what battery discharge rate you might want/need.

Kanthal Wire Chart

I also have these charts on 2 PDF files. One has 3 charts on one page for printing, the second has a single chart on each page.

How to get the perfect vape experience?

After all, with most entry-level vape kits, all you need to do is: Check what wattage you can use with the coil in your device. Adjust your wattage and airflow until you get the vapour, flavour and throat hit you need. Some people want to know more to get the perfect vaping experience.

Why do vapes burn out faster?

You will need to increase the voltage to increase the wattage and get a better vape. Because lower resistance coils use more wattage, they tend to generate more heat. This means they often burn out quicker than a higher resistance coil would.

What does wattage mean in vaping?

To put it another way, watts is essentially how much power your vape produces and voltage is how much power is put through the device. So, as you increase the wattage the voltage also increases and vice versa.

What is the resistance of a sub ohm coil?

The term sub-ohm, while still used, is not as relevant as it used to be. Coils below 1 ohm are common, and coils with a resistance of 0.8 ohms are often used for Mouth-to-Lung vaping. Even lower resistance coils, such as 0.15 coils, are often used for cloud vaping.

How does variable wattage work?

The variable wattage device will then automatically adjust the power going through the atomiser (the voltage) to produce the power output you need (the wattage).

What affects vapour and throat hit?

The resistance of your coil is not the only thing that affects vapour, flavour and throat hit. It also depends on the amount of power flowing through your coil. There are two common types of vape batteries which allow different amounts of power to flow through your coil. These are variable voltage and variable wattage.

What is the difference between variable voltage and variable wattage?

The difference between variable voltage and variable wattage is a bit like the difference between an automatic and a manual car. With a variable voltage device, you manually control the amount of power (voltage) going through your device.

How do VV/VW mods work?

They are vaping devices that have internal circuits, regulating power output through controlling voltage or wattage. So, to calculate Ohm’s law for VV/VW mods, you have to modify the above equation of power:

How does Ohm's law work?

To sum up, Ohm’s law states that by adjusting the resistance of coil and battery voltage, you can revamp your vape device’s current and power. Understanding Ohm’s law can give you small freedom on how you want to modify your vaping experience. The law also will help you know the limitations of your device, keeping you safe. Maybe now you can also make your mod according to your likings.

Can you use Ohm's law to determine the third quantity?

Ohm’s law can be used easily to determine the third quantity if we have the other two. For now, we know the main three components and their relationship with each other. You can use the triangle and formulas to help you build coils for your best sub-ohm tank or mods according to your desire.

Is vaping getting a makeover?

In recent years, the whole vaping experience got a makeover. Vapers are upgrading and buying new mods for their device. With all “upgrading the vaping experience” has brought in brand new terminologies in the game.

What is the building block of vape coils?

The building block of most vape coils is Kanthal wire and organic cotton, and you can fund a year’s supply for the same as a pack of coils. Understanding how to measure the resistance (ohms) of the coil on your atomizer is the first step to safety.

What happens when you decrease resistance?

If you decrease resistance, then the current and power will increase. Knowing the power will increase as you lower the resistance (Sub-Ohm vaping) and using the resistance formula to calculate a low resistance from the continuous discharge rate (CDR) of your battery will help keep you safe and adjust the power at the coil.

What does the letter V stand for in a formula?

All that you have to remember is what the letters stand for in the formula; the easiest is “V” and “R” but “I” is a little harder as it stands for intensité (intensity). Described by the French scientist André-Marie Ampère as “l’intensité du courant électrique.”. V is the Voltage of your battery in Volts.

What is R in a coil?

R is the resistance of your your coil in Ohms. Now that you know the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance you can use the triangle to help build your coils to get the current and wattage you want.

Is a rebuildable tank atomizer safe?

Now that mechanical mods, high wattage regulated mods, rebuildable dripping atomizers, and rebuildable tank atomizers are becoming increasingly popular, it’s in your interest to be safe. After all, you are putting a high voltage or high wattage battery into a metal tube putting it up to your mouth and hitting the fire button!

What is the difference between a sub ohm and a regular vape?

This is the main difference between sub ohm vaping vs regular vaping. Sub-ohm vape mods produce bigger and thicker clouds as compared to regular mods. Because there is so much more vapor, the vape liquid used for sub ohm atomizers tends to have less nicotine than a standard e-cig.

How to use sub ohm vape?

Here are the key points to remember: 1 Sub ohm vaping uses atomizers with a resistance of less than 1.0 ohms. 2 Also called DL, or Direct Lung vaping. 3 Use regulated mods, mech mods are dangerous. 4 Use sub ohm vape tanks as opposed to building your own coils.

What is temperature control vape?

Temperature control vaping uses sub ohm atomizer coils. But instead of setting the wattage, the user instead selects a vaping temperature. Most modern sub-ohm vape mods come with a temperature control option. This is usually denoted as a TC mod.

Why is sub ohm vaping better?

Think of it in this way, the less resistance there is to something, the easier it is to overcome. In the case of sub ohm vaping, a lower resistance atomizer allows more current to pass through it. Increased current causes a metal element to heat faster. As a result, more e-liquid is more rapidly vaporized.

What is the most common sub ohm battery for a vape?

The most common sub-ohm box mod vape batteries are 18650s. There are also 20700, and 21700 but 18650s are the most commonly used.

What does DL stand for in vaping?

Sub Ohm vaping is also called DL vaping. DL stands for Direct Lung Vaping which means that the vapor is drawn directly into the lungs.

What is the most important component of a sub ohm vape?

The most important components in sub-ohm vaping, on which the reliability and robustness of the entire unit depends, are the vape batteries. Therefore, it’s extremely important to comprehend the capabilities as well as the limitations of the batteries you’re using. Especially their discharge rate.
