    Volts or watts?

    When you want more power you either add more coils or use thicker wire. Either way makes your ohms drop fast. When you use a regulated mod, you should check steam-engine.org and look under 'mod range', and check for the optimal ohm range for your mod. The optimal ohms is the value of ohms...

    Volts or watts?

    Yes, with the same gauge wire, the higher ohm single coil will need more voltage and watts and produce more vapour.

    the istick 100 does have the unusual design for a regulated mod where you can operate with either 1 or 2 batteries.

    Are there any current generation atomizers that run well at 8-10 watts?

    I think you'll find the nautilus coils will be around for a longer time; there are lots of nautiluses out there.

    Volts or watts?

    1: "Are the volts the final variable on how hot my coils get?" No. 2: " If it is not a mech, then watts don't matter so much. Only volts. Is that right?" No. watts = volts x volts / ohms. thicker wire needs more watts to get hot.

    Want to avoid mod coils but need buying advice

    What you call the 'wickless tips' would probably be what is now called the 'replaceable coil' or 'replaceable coil head' or 'replaceable head'. The thing where you put your own cotton would be the 'rba head'. I've been happy with my evic vtc mini the last couple months I bought a second one...

    Noob question about ohm reading on multimeter

    To get dual coils as close as possible, use the same roll of wire, wrap on the same mandrel/drillbit, wrap the same number of turns. Before wrapping coils, look at the post positions on the atomizer, and decide how your want your coil legs to end up. On some decks, the coil legs have to end up...

    Woman severely burned in e-cigarette explosion (it was a mech mod)

    Yeah, the rented car thing raised my antennae; then at the end about the mod not being found; gets ya wondering if something entirely different happened and she just made up the ecig part to coverup.

    About a Cloupor Mini and a technicality regarding Boges

    only $29; well then a little compromise is worth it; I guess bottom line you'll just have to use those higher ohm cartos with the vamo.

    What are the best above-ohm builds for mech mod?

    The coil i'm vaping on the last few months is a twisted 28gauge kanthal , single coil; 3mm ID; about 7 wraps. When i first wrapped it, it sometimes measured 0.9ohm on my evic vtc mini, but after a few days it's been consistently at around 1.5ohm; i mostly run it around 4.5 volts, but it works...

    About a Cloupor Mini and a technicality regarding Boges

    Nope. Silly Cloupor; alot of mods out there will at least measure your ohms up to 9.9 ohms even if it could not fire it.

    Oh, I see it now; you live in the freezer :D: alberta canada; you need more wattage just to get started

    Vaping above 50w

    It's about the coil. If you pump 50 watts into a coil designed for 20 watts, then it's going to get hot. If you have an 80 watt coil, then you are not going to get a good vape at 20 watts on that coil. The tfv4 comes with some high powered coils;

    Trying really hard to not buy cigarettes

    The two numbers to look are: 1: 100 wattmilligrams 2: 100 total millgrams per day If you vape 9mg liquid, you want to aim for something like 10 watts. 100 watts would definitely be too high.

    Trying really hard to not buy cigarettes

    Do you know what wattage you vape at? 5 or 6 ml of 18-20mg/ml sounds like the normal ballpark.

    Trying really hard to not buy cigarettes

    watts and nicotine strength go togehter. for 30 watts, 3mg/ml falls in the common ballpark. 6mg i wouldn't thing is too strong, but maybe frequent heavy breathing is contributing to your symptoms.
