    box mods over 100watts

    I didn't include that because I only have the 100W Plus model but if the quality of the 150 is the same then that's yet another over 100 box that will do what is asked of it.

    box mods over 100watts

    IPV3 at 150 watts or SMY 260 at 260 watts, I own both and each have their strong points and weak points but both do what I need them for and that's firing sub-ohm tanks at 20 to 30 watts. In my personal experience, it's more a personal choice than one being better than the other. What are you...

    SMY 260W box

    Yup, I have one now as well, along with a Sigelei 100W Plus and an IPV3. And FWIW, it fires my Kanger Subtank at 25 watts just fine. Not unlike my car which has a top speed of........... and cruises just fine at 70.

    SMY 260 watt?! Thoughts?

    Picked one up yesterday to add to my Sigelei 100W and IPV3. No I don't need 260 watts or even 60 but I didn't have it, wanted it so the wife bought it for me along with a Kanger Sub Tank. Fit and finish is average, I own worse and I own better. Not impressed with it auto locking nor the...

    Confused about Step up and Step Down

    So in order for your IPV2 to fire .2 ohms at 7 watts would require a voltage of 1.183. Now with all of that, assuming the IPV2 doesn't have step-down and your battery was near completely discharged at 3.3 volts you'd be firing at 54.45 watts or on a fully charged battery at 4.2 volts you'd be...

    How to properly steep my liquids?

    I'm not sure why you can't get the nipple off the bottle without damaging it. I have the exact same bottles, 3 of them to be exact that I've been refilling from my 128ml bottles for close to a year. Is the maker (mixer) gluing them on somehow? They come in a giant box without the nipples or tops...

    IPV3 Batteries, which to use for .2 and .1 Ohm builds?

    I've been following multiple threads for two days and the same advice has been given by multiple people multiple times on the aforementioned multiple threads. I think the OP of all those threads has been to a hack vape shop that is convinced that lower ohms mean bigger clouds which if he were...

    Looking to delve fully into Cloud Chasing, but need your help!

    I guess I don't see a way to calculate what your asking unless the coil is variable wattage (resistance) If you use a specific voltage and a specific amperage in ohms law you get a specific resistance required to draw that amperage resulting in a specific wattage. For example: 4.1 volts at 7...

    Sigelei 100W Owners Thread

    I guess I'm ruining either my batteries, my mod or both because I pop them out, slap them into whichever slots are open in the charger then slap them right back in the mod without any care or concern for which one is A or B or where B was on the last rotation or if A was rotated correctly in the...

    So I bought an Atlantis, now what?

    I like the 50/50 mix as it seems to be a good balance between wicking, throat hit and vapor production. As for juice flavors, I get mine mixed locally at a Vape shop in Kansas. The juice Dixie mixes just seems to be a lot cleaner and the coils last a lot longer. I have ordered from Mt Baker...

    So I bought an Atlantis, now what?

    Definitely cut your Nic in half at least, I made that mistake and 3 or 4 hits into my first fill on the Atlantis at 27.5 watts and I was on the worst Nic high of my entire vaping career. I have vaped at 12mg for over a year and find that 3 mg on the Atlantis is perfect. I run a 50/50 juice at 25...

    Ok guys, I need help choosing a VW box mod.

    Looks decent and uses a chip with a good reputation. Although till now I've never heard of it. I understand not wanting to take extra stuff on the crew chopper and utilizing the built in charger. Personally I don't have anything against them but prefer to use a charger that charges the...

    Ok guys, I need help choosing a VW box mod.

    Essentially every one you listed is going to do much the same thing. Unless your looking to go out on the extreme fringe of what the mod is capable of doing then the best advice I have is to get the one that you like the look and feel of the most. Not sure what you have for local vape shops or...

    Looking to delve fully into Cloud Chasing, but need your help!

    My only experience with cloud comps is my local vape shops and the rules, well the rule is whomever blows the biggest cloud as judged by the panel of judges wins. That's the rule, nothing about having to be a mechanical or coil resistance etc. I assume they assume that the people involved are...

    I have read all that many times on that site as well as variations of the same on others. Trust me I don't take what your saying as combative, quite the opposite as I am always open to learn a new way, theory or law. I'm in the business of making things that on paper should never leave the...

    Batteries capacity is measured in Amp Hours or a variation of such so, a 1.0 ohm build at 50 watts is drawing 7.071 amps a 0.1 ohm build at 50 watts is drawing 22.361 amps So with that information the .1 ohm build is drawing over 3 times the power from the battery as the 1.0.

    Looking to delve fully into Cloud Chasing, but need your help!

    And you just made my point, the .15 ohm on a fully charged battery using 4.1 volts (your probably not getting 4.2 volts out of the battery after the first micro-second of pressing the button due to battery droop) your making 112 watts but drawing 27.3 amps which is one #### of a drain on an...

    Looking to delve fully into Cloud Chasing, but need your help!

    Now your thinking too far the other way, Shoot for a pair of 2 ohm coils giving you 1 ohm and I think you'll find the clouds your looking for. Too far either way and your getting out of the "ideal zone". For example to get a moderate 50 watts at 2 ohms would require 10.0 volts. A pair of 18650's...

    I don't know much but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express once and with that I don't think the IPV will even fire a .02 ohm build. Try something in the .4 to .8 range since your using a VV/VW mod. IMO you won't get nearly as much vapor from a .02 ohm as you will a .4.
