What is your Ohm + Voltage sweet spot?

[The Bunny]

Greetings!

New to the forum.

I have been vaping an Ego Twist @ 4 volts with the Vivi Nova @ 2.8 Ohms. I enjoy how cool the vape is & there is good production, when​ the Nova is working (I'm moving on to a Reo Mini 2.1 & atomizers). It seems my preference is less common, as most seem to like more watts, say like 1.5 atomizers on 3.7 mods & then much higher voltages for standard resistance atomizers. So, a couple of questions:

Am I making a mistake by purchasing Cisco 306's & Hh 357's at 2.5 Ohms & above for my 3.7 volt Reo Mini?

What is your sweet spot?

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I have a Vamo V2 (Stainless) and an AGA-T+ RBA that I 4-wrapped with 32awg.

Settings I'm using-
1.8ohm @3.8volts = 8 watts for menthol (Likes cooler coils)
1.8ohm @4.0volts = 9 watts for ry4 (Likes slightly warmer coils)


EDIT- Google an Ohm's Law Calculator and find your target voltage. A lot of clearos like 4-8 watts.

2.5ohm @4.4volts = 8 watts = max output for eGo iirc.

Every juice has it's own sweet spot.

I generally vape anywhere from 8 to 10 watts.
But I tend not to use fruit flavors, which happen to like lower wattage.

I vape mainly tobaccos, coffees, and chocolate variations.
They seem to like somewhat higher wattages.

Mine is usually ohms + 2 volts ... plus or minus a few tenths depending on juice

 

[Chuckq4yoo]

I would say my sweet spot is between 0.8-1.1 ohms, I use only mechanical mods so the voltage should usually be about 3.7 average

 

[StereoDreamer]

Different for nearly every juice I like, and on different mods, and with different attys.

I generally run my AcryliMax t about 3.7v or 5.5 watts when using my Vivi Nova tanks with 2.4 ohm heads. But tobacco juices I run hotter, and fruity juices, sometimes lower.

My eVic, I've been running excusively on VW for about 2 weeks. I usually run it between 6.5 and 7.1 watts on 2.4 ohm Vivi. But I run it cooler (6.7-5.5w) when using my Terminator-C.

And some juices, I'll run them cooler in the morning, and then relatively hot in the middle of the day, and then taper off to lower settings again in the evening.

I like VV/VW devices because for me, there is no such thing as a "universal sweet spot". Different juices require different power to get their maximum flavor and vapor. I'm constantly fiddling with my power settings...

That's where I'm at. I'm going to try a dual coil when I get a Nimbus.

Considering this is in the New Members Forum, I will keep it simple, and this is just my opinion. I also like a cooler vape like the OP. 3ohm carts are just fine at 4.2 or even 3.7v, strangely enough. 1.8 and 2 ohm carts are about the same to me, but I preferred 3.3v up to 3.7 for these over 4.2v most of the time. I have 2.2 and 2.5 ohm heads for my top mounted head clearo, and I also prefer 3.3 to 3.7v over 4.2 on these as well, probably because the coil is so close to my mouth. Seems I only go up to 4.2 to dry burn a coil for cleaning, or get a great TH that I soon change the voltage down from. These low voltages are not clogging my coils and make as much vapor as higher voltages, only the TH is lower. My juices are all 50/50 or 60/40, 16 to 18mg, almost all tobacco flavors. I don't have any choice about my voltages other than those I listed, it's the different battery units I have and the one Ego-T 2 upgrade passthrough I use most of the time. Just made my first DIY e-liquid order today(before it's all gone), most likely getting a VV/VW and a maybe a rebuildable atty late next month, if the budget allows. Maybe if I had a true VV/VW I would change my mind about my preferred ohm to volt ratio. Seriously considering an E-vic, the 1.2 firmware looks pretty nice, OLED is fancy, full kits for $80, hard to beat...pardon the tangent.

AGA-T2, 5/32 ceramic wick, 30ga Kanthal, 7.6 watts, 1.7ohm, 3.7v on either eVic, Provari or a mechanical.

 

[GalenCopes]

I just vape by taste and feel. I heat it up until I taste a little burn and lower the voltage a little. I have had a Kanger Protank on a Provari for right at a week...and I haven't even checked what the ohms on the coil are.

I use vivi nova at 1.7 ohms. I would say tha 3.6-3.7 is the highest volt that i can get for sweet spot vaping. more than that feels like im smoking wick.

 

[RooRooBears]

1.8 ohms @ 3.6 V
3.0 ohms @ 4.6 V

Depending on the eJuice, however, give it a standard deviation of +/- 0.2

 

[DDark4eva]

uhh..I have a few, I use too many attachments

My "current" mains though are-Vivi Nova 2.5ohms 4.6v, EvoD 1.9ohm 3.9v...CE3 2.4ohms 4.5v

Others I use
Raven Tank 2.4ohms..still workin on it
T3 2.7 ohms 4.6-4.7v
Boge carto 2.7ohm 4.7v
Smok dual coil mega ego carto 1.6ohms 3.7v


these are my attachments of choice ..just depends on wut I feel like using each day. However my EvoD is always with me

 

[ar_zaem]

i found that when i use lower resistance(ohms), i started feel that the flavor taste start decreasing. Does it happen to all of you?

 

[Daniel13]

cartos-2ohm 4.4volts
clearos- 8 watts max (burnt taste after)
atties- 2.5ohm 4.4volts (they get too hot)
rbas- 14.5 watts on provari (amp limit) most i can get on mechs

I can't remember where I found this table but it is very good for your reference.

ahh man I remember that, I used to keep it on my phone lol

It helped me alot wen I 1st got into VV, I know the sweet spots for my oHms now but it is Indeed a good reference chart.

 

[KerryK]

BCC Mega Tank with 2.5ohm bottom coil between 7.5 and 8.5 watts depending on juice.

 

[tj99959]

My sweet spot is subject to change at any moment. I vape several different flavors during the day, and use several different systems. Each having it's own power requirements.
Right now I'm using an A7 RBA with a 3ohm coil in it @ 4.2v. That's about 5.8watts is all. Earlier I was using a 1.25ohm atty on a reo which is about 11.5watts. At least for me each type of delivery system and juice has it's own unique sweet spot.

 

[owen19]

3 ohm carto is at 5 volts
RBA's and RTA's as low as .6 at 3.7-4.2 volts. I like my vapor warm
