  1. State O' Flux

    RDA Ok, Never had or tried a RDA so i have some questions.

    1. My first question would be can build an RDA that can be used with an istick 50w, or do i have to get better gear? No... 50 watts, with the right wire gauge and build, will support sub-ohm builds well. Higher wattage would be advantageous if you wanted to support deep sub-ohm builds at higher...

    Looking for atty wire help

    This is where a coil modeling calculator like Steam Engine comes in handy. Click the sigline hyperlink below to access the program and user guide. With it, you will learn that.... On a 2.5mm mandrel, with 6mm net leg length per coil (3mm legs), a 88.8mm length of 26 gauge Kanthal A-1 (.405mm...

    Itaste mvp 3.0 pro question

    Resistance, measured in ohms (Ω) is a fixed value, or rather what ever fixed value for the coil heads you have on hand, or the net resistance you build an RBA at. As @zed888 stated, with a MVP, you adjust wattage... to be suitable for the net resistance, wire gauge and coil count in parallel...

    Calculating Battery Discharge Time

    You'll want to contact @Dampmaskin for an answer to that one... here through his username, or via lars.simonsen@ gmail.com.

    Using steam engine...

    New Information is information... if Hans doesn't need it, someone else will. Leg length can be estimated, based on past builds. A dial or digital caliper, or a machinists rule can come in handy here as well. 26 gauge for a dual parallel coil build at 1.0Ω net... is too thick a wire, unless...

    That would be eight wraps per coil. If you give me your exact desired net resistance and wire gauge/type, along with the anticipated leg length per coil and the mandrel diameter... I'd be happy to confirm your calculations. If you have a dial or digital caliper... I'd also like you to measure...

    I may already know the answer but...

    Anyone using hard math to calculate the effects of nicotine content is blowing vapor up your skirt. Yes, RDAs at low resistance with good air flow and a high coil net surface area will generate a great deal more vapor than your typical RTA or high end clearo... but there's no hard math, only the...

    Dont Dry Burn Your Kanthal

    Fair enough Heavy. Taste is so... what's the word I'm looking for? Oh yeah... "subjective". Seriously... if it works for you, regardless of the intended metallurgy... I'm not going to say you're doin' it wrong.

    First atty how to clean

    You can get at least 100 different ways to clean and products to use... all of them provide success, to some degree or another. From warm water and Oxy-Clean to cheap vodka... assorted solvents, ultrasonic cleaners, boiling... and everything in between. Old school me just uses hot water and...

    Calculating Battery Discharge Time

    Short of absorbing and confirming your math... I'll just point you to the Steam Engine battery drain calculator, so you can proof your calculations.

    What about this 18350 battery only $2.48 each?

    The old red Efest 18350s are rated at 6.4A MCCD.

    Dont Dry Burn Your Kanthal

    Kanthal A-1 is designed to produce a thermally conductive, electrically resistive aluminum oxide layer... so I'm curious as to what you mean by "oxidized" and "damaged".

    Vg/pg. please explain

    Can't help you with that, using only RDA and RTAs, I'm not intimately familiar with the Nautilus characteristics. I'm sure someone will come along who is, and might shed some light on how well 70% will work in that clearo.

    Vg/pg. please explain

    Flavor and vapor can depend greatly on the net resistance, coil radiant temperature and the more subjective air flow rate. Thick viscosity, high VG is used primarily in RDAs where low resistance and juice, in high volume, is in close proximity to the coil(s), along with a user defined, typically...

    RDA Clicking noise from coils?

    That's what I was thinking when I read post #3... "poppers and teasers". Ah... what?
  16. State O' Flux

    Vg/pg. please explain

    PG is the flavor carrier, VG contributes to vapor density.

    Using steam engine...

    Correct. For two coils in a parallel connection, the net resistance is one coils resistance, divided by two. If you have three coils, it's a single coils resistance divided by three. In any case of multiple parallel coils... the net resistance is the resistance of a single coil, divided by the...

    Typical wattage of mech mods

    A dual parallel 18650 unregulated mod has the potential to provide up to around 240-250 watts. The discharge value is based entirely on the net resistance of the atomizer... per Ohm's Law.
