    Smok Alien 220w misreading Ohms

    Really, is the cover on the rx200s plastic? All my rx200 are metal. My most used one has been dropped repeatedly, and fairly severely at times, and while it looks pretty beat up it's working fine. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    How do you accurately measure such a low resistance? Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    Does anyone else think drip tips are getting too wide?

    But what is a "510 size mouthpiece"? There has never been a standard for that. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    The drip tip on the OBS Engine is a standard 510. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    New box mod/amp question? Someone who knows ohms law? Thanks!

    I get it, but I don't get how that would be applicable in this situation, unless the mod would indeed fire like a mech. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    New box mod/amp question? Someone who knows ohms law? Thanks!

    The point is that the resistance really doesn't matter even if the mod would fire continuously, the watts do. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    New box mod/amp question? Someone who knows ohms law? Thanks!

    A regulated device won't simply function like a mech if it fails. Most likely it simply won't work. Perhaps it might fire continuously, perhaps even at the highest wattage, but even in those cases resistance doesn't really factor in. It would be an astonishing series of combined failures for a...

    New box mod/amp question? Someone who knows ohms law? Thanks!

    1. No matter what it's called, amp draw should be calculated correctly. 2. Sure, but in that case the maximum volts the device can fire at should also be taken into account. A regulated mod won't simply act like a mech mod if the safeties fail. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    Certainly. Watts law shouldn't be forgotten, though. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    Ohms law is not of use when calculating the amp draw on regulated mods, watts law is. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    My mechanical mod vibrates, please help.

    Note that the vtc4 is a 23 amp battery, not 30. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    iJoy 40A 4200mAh 26650 Bench Test Results...overrated but a great 30A battery!

    What's your wattage? I'm guessing that you're getting the message due to the voltage under load being low due to a too watt setting. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    How to know if a battery is venting?

    I've settled into a hobbit hole myself. A budget one. A major upside is that I'm making a saving on electrical bills. The downside is that I don't have any electricity. Makes charging 18650s a tad bit difficult, but I'm thinking about arranging something with electric eels, or positive...

    Having a house! It's about time someone brought that up! A lot of problems can be solved by avoiding having a house, or an apartment. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    New studies find carcinogens in vg and pg at high temps, even in tootle puffers

    The Innokin SVD was my first vw mod. Still works :-), but doesn't see any use anymore :-/ Had a Vamo for a brief time as well but broke it by dropping it on a stone floor :'( I kinda miss tube mods now... Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    My mechanical mod vibrates, please help.

    Sorry, but from what you've written it seems clear that you don't know enough. You may have information, but you haven't processed it. Firing a coil with unknown resistance, you wouldn't do that if you truly understood the dangers. And (possibly) a .1Ω on a single cell mech, using a 20-amp...

    Vaporesso Revenger or Wismec Predator

    As long as the 20700 fit the Xtar will charge them just fine. Not sure if they fit though. Edit: there's a post in the batteries and chargers subforum that claims that the vc4 will fit 20700 cells. Sent from my K6000 Pro using Tapatalk

    Coils that come pre installed on skyhook rdta?

    With a vw mod you use watts law, not ohms law to calculate the amp draw: Watts / cutoff voltage (around 6v on the Skyhook as it's dual-battery series, but check the voltage at cutoff to know for sure) = amps. Note that you should also account for chip inefficiency so you should add 10% or so to...
