Christopher Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Hey Folks, We're looking for some feedback on the coils we make for our AIO kit and PPC kits. Your responses are greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhonshell37 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I run 0.4 ohms in my Apsire Cleito set at 62 watts on my Nebula mod. My Kangertech mini, I run the rba at 0.5 ohms at 38 watts. Sent from my SM-T550 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I'm in the minority here as I run 1.8 ohm coils exclusively on Aspire Triton 2, Kanger Protanks 1, 2, 3, Aerotanks, and even build to 1.8 ohms on my Russian 91% and RDAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Been building my RTA's and RDA's between .25Ω and .3Ω lately. Getting good spacing on coils with good fog and good flavor @ reasonable wattage settings of 50 to 60W. Good throat hits as well. I guess to further qualify the the formula, I'm mixing juices @ 70/30 VG/PG with 6mg nic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earthling789 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 In a Kanthal or NiChrome coil, I prefer 1.2 Ohm as my ADV coil, but if I'm using TC mode, I use 316L SS at 0.3 - 0.5 Ohm or Ni200 at 0.15 - 0.2 Ohm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FXRich Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 For wattage mode I use 26g Kanthal, .8 - .9 ohm range. For TC I use 28g 316L .7 - .8 ohm range. For dripping I use a 28g SS dual coil setup, around .4 ohms. Whether I use TC or watts my coils run about .8 ohms, which is what I prefer, but others may prefer a higher, or lower resistance depending on how they vape.

Adversarious1 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I use anything from .1 to .6. It all depends on which tank or RDA, the device and the flavor vs. vapor experience I'm going for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll occasionally build a 1.6 or 1.8 ohm coil for MTL vaping, but I'm usually in deep in the sub ohm area day-to-day.

Christopher Posted March 17, 2017 Author Share Posted March 17, 2017 1.6 is usually where I'm at. Anything lower is just too hot for me personally. I've never seen the appeal in sub ohm vaping. Though there's no denying that's where everything at today. (When filling orders, most of the drop in coils are all below 1.0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adversarious1 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Sub ohm doesn't necessarily mean hot, though. It's all relative: the lower the ohms, the higher the wattage you can go and achieve roughly the same temp. There's much more science to it than just that, but sub ohm should not be confused with "hot". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of these days I will get you and @Earthling789 to lern me diffrunt. Edited March 17, 2017 by Tam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, I get a cooler vape with my Cloud Beasts with the .15 ohm T8 coils at 125-130w than I do with a handmade 1.8 ohm coil in one of my MTL tanks at 15-20w.

Christopher Posted March 17, 2017 Author Share Posted March 17, 2017 I'll probably have to sit down with Ad once of these days. Thing is, I left the industry for about a year or two to work with BK. Came back and sub ohm had seriously taken over. (Back when we assumed it would be a phase) In my experience, sub ohm vaping has always been to harsh, rough or not a pleasant smooth experience. Though higher ohm often takes "too long" IMO to give you the vapor you need (unlike a cigarette which is faster) which I think sub ohm'ing tries to solve.

Walt Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 It's counter intuitive to me, but I don't argue with what works. As I move along my journey and lower the resistance and raise the power, the vapes are more fulfilling both in therms of fog and flavor as I go.

Christopher Posted March 17, 2017 Author Share Posted March 17, 2017 It's funny I remember when I visited China the first couple of times. A surprising amount of vapers of there know my face from the forum. There's also a random video of me floating around when I was vaping in Qingdao with Debbie. (There was a comment about the white man with the hairy legs married to a Chinese woman. It's a long story) But they would say ask "wow so you know everything what device do you use?!" And..... I would pull out a Vision Spinner 2 with an AeroTank lol It's not that I didn't have access to a ton of other devices and mods in the VT inventory, it just worked for me and I was too lazy to change lol It was so sad to see their disappointment.

Bebop Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) High wattage doesn't have to be hot. It can be but it doesn't follow absolutely. It's kinda like this. It takes a lot more power to heat up multiple coils or large coils with thick wire to the same temperature as a smaller thin little wispy coil. It's a numbers game. Much like it only takes 105 horsepower engine to move a Volkswagen along the road but you need 2,000 HP to even get a dump truck rolling. So as far as temperature goes you can't really compare coils like that. Same way you can't compare Horsepower to speed in every case. I'll bet you could beat a dump truck off the line in your little Volkswagen. But put a trailer full of cement on the back of your Volkswagen and you aren't going nowhere, lol. It's not a completely accurate analogy, but you get the picture. Edited March 17, 2017 by Bebop Christopher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bebop Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) Sounds peaceful. Whelp, guitar's all tucked in, and the DAW is shut down for the night. I'll leave you to the whisper of cooling fans .... I have to get you to record a track of that piano someday so we can collaborate on a VT soundtrack. That would be fun. I hope you're still playing.

Squid Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 A little late to the game here, but here it goes. I use a subtank mini with a 1.2 or 1.5 ohm coil or a nautilus mini with a 1.8 or 1.6, what ever is available, coil at work for stealth vaping so I don't have to go out to the "smoke shack" with the smokers. I pair those with a 50/50 juice at 11mg. At home I have several tanks in a free form rotation, kind of what ever seems right to use at the time: A Freemaxx Starre that I prefer the .25ohm coils in. A Melo III Mini currently runnng a .5 ohm coil (waiting for the .75ohm coils to come in to the VT store). Another subtank mini (the Plus has a torn oring and I can't seem to find a replacement) running a .5 ohm coil. A Ephro morph running kanger .5 coils. I primarily use Black label or a local juice at 70vg/30pg at 3mg. My wife uses a nautilus mini with the 1.6 or 1.8 ohm coils primarily. I did get her an iPower nano that she has taken a liking to an she prefers the .75 ohm coils over the .3ohm (comes with 1 of each). When home, or generally not at work, I prefer DL with subohm, but I trade off using a ton of juice by compromising and sticking around .5 ohm even though the Stare with the .25ohm is my favorite tank. The wife doesn't like it when I fog up the living room while we watch TV. I think I would really enjoy one of the varieties of the Beast tanks, but don't want to go through as much juice as they are reported to use.
