Been a long week for me too, Tam... I totally empathize If Wattage is held the same, the lower resistance coil will draw more Amps, because it has less resistance. At 10W of power, a 2.2 Ohm coil draws 2.1A, and the 1.8 Ohm coil draws nearly 2.4A. The lower resistance coil will heat and cool faster, which is great if you chain-vape, so you aren't cooking the juice with a coil that stays hot longer. For a casual hit with a long draw, the higher resistance coil is better suited, IMO. Both are so close to not really have much difference in power consumption, but the 1.5-1.8 Ohm coils are a good starting point for the new vaper... Most people will use a higher Wattage with the lower resistance coil, to achieve a better vape (flavor, vapor production, warmer), so the lower resistance coil will require even more Amps (power) because you'd likely dial it up to 12-13W (if 10W tasted good on the 2.2 Ohm coil).

Thanks for the replies everyone....got a box today...actually learning to like it already!

The Aspire CF Mod, while having some cool features (like under-voltage and short-circuit protection, to name a couple), is not a constant output battery. The voltage drops from 4.2 to <3.5 before the device turns itself off so you'll need to figure your Atlantis' coil resistance based on that voltage range and your personal tastes. The performance of your Atlantis is going to drop some during the course of your battery's discharge. Basically, treat the CF Mod like you would a mechanical mod, because it behaves just like one. Oh yeah...get a box and learn to love it. It'll change the way you vape.

Yep. I've gone the subohm, high watts route but don't like the warm to hot vape. Cooler is my sweet spot. Even chain vaping, the iStick 50W lasts between 4 and 5 days between charging.

Wow. And I even followed all that. I was basing it on my vaping style, which is to use a 1.8 ohm coil but only at 8W. I go up to 9.4W when I'm feeling adventurous.

I hope it all works out! I really have not made much yet. @Compenstine has been trying to get all of this through my thick skull... I am glad he is patient! With my scheduled and resistance to change flavors, he has had his hands full... They are mostly TFA flavors, repackaged by Wizard Labs. I should go straight to the manufacturer, but Wizard Labs has been really good to me, so far, and I really don't have enough figured out to need any more than 30ml bottles. I also forgot to put in the picture that I bought a bunch of empty bottles, and 3 different cherry flavors from Comp this week too.

I finally got a few more flavors. I can't wait until I have time to try them out!

Have you tried making your own?

"Each time" Tam is referring to is each time you change coils, or change to a different juice. Lower resistance coils like 1.5 or 1.8 will require a little more power (Wattage) than the 2.2 Ohm coil you're using now. The one you're using now is a cooler coil... it takes a little longer to heat up, but is good for long draws because it heats slower. If you want a little more heat, you may want to try a 1.8 Ohm coil... most of us prefer those in the KPT2. Also, adding a Kanger air-flow-control base to your tank will give you more air-flow and is adjustable to make the vape more personalized. The bases can be found online or at most shops for $3-7, and make your KPT2 that much better! Welcome to Vapor Talk!
