Jun 07, 2021 · Three Rules For Finding The Best Wattage For Your Vape Tank. Start Low. Even If Your Tank Says It Can Handle 150W, Start At 60W And Work Your Way Up; Higher Wattage Does Not Mean Better Vaping. I’d Rather Vape At 60W And Conserve My Coil Heads; Most Modern Sub Ohm Tanks Will Not Require More Than 80W – Even The High-Power Ones.
Do sub ohm vape tanks need more than 80W?
Aug 16, 2015 · I run my Subtank Mini (RTA) with the rebuildable deck and .5 ohm build at about 30w on the 100w IPV4.. And I run my Dark Horse with a dual parallel 24g nichrome build (.15 ohms) at 80w on the 150w IPV3.. ... I'm vaping at about 10 t0 15 watts on a 28 gauge 2+ ohm coil right now on a 3d rdta. (on a mech with a 4.8 volt vv kick module) edyle, Aug ...
What is the best way to adjust wattage in a vape device?
I'd give it a nice 60-100 watts. Depending on what juice, you could also go with a cooler 40-45 watt vape. 60W and 550F on a .25 in TC for me! My crown box states the .25 ohm coils can be run between 30-120w I run em at 45-55w depending the juice. My sweet spot with most juices is around 85 on my Fuchai.
How does wattage affect your vape?
Start at a lower wattage (say 30), and increase it until you get the result you want. It doesn’t take much voltage to produce high wattage with low resistance like 0.21 ohms. 4 volts at 0.21 ohms would create 76 watts — but there’s no real need to know what the voltage is on a regulated mod. Just figure out the wattage you like best.

I don't think you need one personally except for looks. I am using the Sigelei 100 watt and it looks nice while sitting on top of it. Also, when using the rtas and rdas, it would depend the build of your coil for what batteries you would need.

I want to start using RTa /RDAs. Do you have to buy those box mods in order to do this?

Cool. Thanks for the info. Right now I am using coolfire 4 with atlantis v1. Want to get into rebuildables and don't know where to start.

It depends on many factors. The resistance, wire gauge, type of build and airflow.

Hi vaper29, I think a good place to start would be a kanger subtank/subtank mini. It comes with a very easy to use rebuildable head so you can play around with building, and if you don't like it, you can always use the pre-built heads.

Russian Full Size RTA, 28awg, 1.6ohm, at 8watts on an SVD 2.0, and a Kayfun V4 Clone, 28awg, 1.3ohms at 10watts on a Sigelei Mini 30w, so no, just have to know your build, what your mood is, and what air flow and wicking speed a rebuildable can handle.
How many amps can a 0.5 ohm battery draw?
As you can see, with your 0.5-ohm coil and a freshly charged battery at 4.2 volts, the resulting max current draw will be 8.4 amps. If your battery has a 10-amp limit, you are well below the cap. Don’t forget that using a dual mechanical mod in series configuration will double your amp draw per battery, and you will have to build coils with twice as high resistance to be safe. Also note that as the battery depletes, the current will also tail off. For example, when the battery reaches 3.7 volts with the same load, the current will drop to 7.4 amps (3.7 volts / 0.5 ohms)
What is the safest ohms for a 10 amp battery?
The result tells you that your safe lower limit with the 10-amp battery is 0.47 ohms—anything lower and you risk exceeding the current limit of the battery. Of course, if you have a 25-amp battery, your low resistance drops to 0.17 ohms:
How many amps does a 0.5 ohm coil pull?
So that 0.5-ohm coil with a fully charged battery at 4.2 volts will pull a maximum of 8.4 amps and deliver 35.3 watts. You can see that as the resistance of your coil increases, current and wattage will both drop.
What is the second Ohm's law?
The second Ohm’s Law formula that can be of use to us is calculating resistance. Let’s say that you have a battery with a 10-amp current limit and you want to determine the lowest coil resistance that you can safely run without exceeding the CDR of the battery.
Can you solve for voltage with triangle?
Finally, and probably not as useful to us, using the triangle you can solve for voltage in a circuit, as long as you know the values of the other two variables.
What are the three main elements of an electrical circuit?
The Triangle. Inside the triangle you can see the three main elements in any electrical circuit, represented by the letters V , I, and R. I would vocalize the triangle as “V over I times R” with “times” being multiplication.
Wattage and its effect on your vape
If you are a rookie vaper you may be confused by what the term wattage means and its role in your vape. Heck, some seasoned vapers are still a bit confused! But it’s ok I’m going to break it down for you.
What is Wattage?
A Watt is a measure of the amount of power used by an electrical device. Essentially it refers to the rate in which electricity is used and can be defined as (Voltage x Voltage) / Resistance = Wattage.
Choosing the right gear for adjusting your voltage
There are two ways you can approach the gear you want to use for sub-ohming.
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 does ohm mean in atomizers?
An ohm (Ω) is a unit of resistance. Essentially, the lower the resistance of your coil, the more electricity will flow through it. Increase the amount of resistance and less electricity will flow through. So when you use a lower resistance atomiser, and more electricity flows through, you will find the following:
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.
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.
What is variable voltage?
With a variable voltage device, you manually control the amount of power (voltage) going through your device. The amount of energy that is actually output will depend on how the resistance of your atomiser interacts with that power flowing through it. A variable wattage device is different.
What is a vape device?
Vape devices use simple circuits that contain a battery, a switch and a heating coil. The circuit is effectively a controlled short, with the power output from the battery used to create heat.
What is a milliampere hour?
A milliampere hour (mAh) is 1000th of an ampere hour (Ah). Both are used as a measure of battery capacity, a higher mAh rating means more capacity. mAh only measures capacity and should not be confused with power.

UK: Yorkshire Cancer Research (YCR) is promoting vaping again to combat smoking, the leading cause of preventable cancer
Yorkshire Cancer Research (YCR) is promoting the concept of switching to vaping again to combat smoking, the leading cause of preventable cancer. The campaign follows on from the outstanding film launched on National No Smoking Day, addressing the misconceptions about vaping and tobacco harm reduction.
Thank you mods!
I just wanted to publicly thank the mods for implementing our new no medical questions rule that I suggested a few days ago. Hopefully it cuts down on some of the clutter, questions we're not qualified to answer, and just dumb shit that's in no way related to vaping being blamed on vaping.
