    Wire heating question

    yup, now I just got one more question - I don't understand something, why do the amps adjust. At .4ohms and 4.2 volts, and at vtc4's output of 30amps why does it mark it down to 10.5 amps instead of letting me adjust?

    Wire heating question

    dude I was referring to if I put in the watts correctly into the heat flux section or am I supposed to divide it up by something somehow

    Wire heating question

    I did, here's what I came up with: went to the ohm's law section, at .15 ohm, at 4.2 volts, puts me at a current of 28 amps with 117.6 watts. Peachy, that's what I want. Then I go to the wrap coil section, I do 24 gauge Kanthal aiming for .15 ohms resistance, dual coil, with 2.4 mm diameter...

    no I'll be on a mech mod soon, right now I'm using a sub ohm aspire battery

    Wire heating question

    sorry dude I was thinking out loud. So should I change the watts? Is that separate from the rest of the formulas on that page and I'll have to put in watts depending on my volt output and all that? That means it would change as the battery drains correct?

    Wire heating question

    why is that heat flux - @ 10 watts? It comes up as standard, should I change that? and if then to what?

    Wire heating question

    28 gauge at .8 resistance will put me at 222 (green zone), so I gotta go get some 28

    Wire heating question

    S...t, that means I need like a 26 or 28 Kanthal, sigh

    Wire heating question

    ok what???? I just put in 28 kanthal, everything remained the same (2mm diameter, target resistance of .53 on a single coil set up) The wraps went down to 3 (from 7 rounded), which makes sense 'cause from what I remember the thinner the wire the more resistance, but the heat flux (keeping the...

    Wire heating question

    ok dude thank you, I read it, but kind of confused on heat flux thing. I put in my parameters and it came to 83 milliwatts per millimeter. And it's blue. Yet it lights up pretty quick. Oh I might add that that I'm still using that sub ohm battery by aspire 'cause my Apollo and batts didn't...

    Wire heating question

    you know I was wondering 'cause I built a .5ohm coil, 6 wraps (24 gauge, that's the only one I have at the time), and then I built .45 DUAL coils, 12 wraps, and it was taking forever to heat up. I mean like 5 seconds and up. I know that the more surface area the more flavor you'll get which is...

    Wire heating question

    Guys, do I have this right - the more wire the longer it's gonna take to heat up? I'm referring to 24 gauge Kanthal btw

    used to be coffee and cigarettes... now...

    Couldn't resist sitting on a can even though I don't have to, listening to music and vaping and taking a mental break from work. On a flip side - I love the way the tiny cloud bounces off the door and makes a huge circle when I exhale. Omg this depresses me. Gonna go back.

    The doucheness in him. All shall hail lol I think he's just a big pu...y and afraid to dump her. So in that aspect he's hopeless. But maybe at least he'll see the light when it comes to his health.

    I tried helping someone

    I'm persistent as hell and I love helping others. That's why I bypassed the past. So I IM him and I'm like you going for a smoke he's like yes so I'm like let's go. I take my 12mg sapphire juice. We go to his car he lights it up the moment we get outside. 3rd drag I'm like toss it. He does. I...

    I tried helping someone

    But I think I failed. I used to be friends with this dude from work but he turned into a mime and a self centered douche. But I felt bad for him because he was still smoking. So I offered to help him and we go to lunch today to the vape shop and what does he do? He gets a kanger for his...
