510 Carto Question

Not open for further replies.
Okay so here's the deal. I had an old Pyrex tank I used a while back on a lava tube before the mod broke. It takes a 510 Carto threaded for ego style batteries (but it would work on the tube no problem).

My Kanger Evod recently broke on me so I went down to the vape shop and they kicked me a 510 Carto for my Pyrex tank to use on my battery until I can pick up a Kanger Protank. (I use an ego twist, the 650 mah I believe)

On my old Evod I used 1.8 ohm single coil cartos, and I could vape at around 3.8-4.0v with a great throat hit and good vapor production. Flavor was there too. I asked the gentleman if the 510 Carto he kicked me for free was a 1.8 ohm as well, since I was used to that, and he said either a 1.5 or 1.8 ohm.

After getting home and filling my tank I start vaping at around 3.5v to find the sweet spot again, but I'm noticing I'm barely getting any vapor. I've properly filled the Carto and I did everything else correctly.

So I start ramping it up on the voltage and I don't see significant vapor production until I get all the way up to 4.6v! I'm using Root Beer Barrel by Rippin Vapors and even on 4.6v I can taste it perfectly fine, no burnt or dry tasting hits, throat hit isn't over the top it's actually quite good.

So does this mean I was misinformed and my Carto could actually be let's say like a 2.5 or maybe even 3 ohm? I just want to know to make sure.. Like I said no burnt taste and I can still taste the root beer. Also I know a fully charged twist can get (estimate) maybe around 6 hrs of vaping.. But I'm afraid my battery is gonna die out super quick if I keep vaping on the 4.6v. Anyone know battery life on the higher end volts while using a twist?

Thanks in advance.

It could be a dual coil. I was running 4.5Volts when I was using 1.5 Ohm dual cartomizers. I don't know the mAh rating of your twist, and if I did, it would be calculation. So I could give you how long it can operate if there wasn't a cut-off and you just held the button until it died... I'm sure someone else that plays with ego's will get to you better on that.

Oh, and extra batteries never hurt.

Thanks for the info. I know it is the shorter version twist it's not the 1100mah or whatever those longer ones are. And okay I thought it could maybe be a dual coil but I don't even know if there's a way to check other than doing a reading on it. But I guess it's safe to say I can vape at 4.6v on this Carto?
