Bought this little guy from China and I received it today. I am using Efest 18350 IMR batteries with Igo-L atomizers.

Prior to this, I would use just the 18350 and run it from 4.2v to around 3.7v un-regulated in a mechanical. My Igo-L is set to 1.5 Ohms and I found the sweet spot to be at about 4.0v.

Now, I got this thing in the mail and it states "adjustable from 5-12 Watts. It has little increments and I understand that, however, I was never really good at math, and I'm just trying to find the 'old' sweet spot.

I'd like to set this kick so it puts out 4.0V all the time. Could any you wizards recommend the best Wattage to achieve this?


Thanks!

10.5 watts gives you 3.96 volts

1.5Ω at 4v ~ 10.5 watts & 2.6a

Click the link to a Ohms calculator.

Thanks!

The efficiency of my new mod vs the old smok Natural is a large change.

I find that in order to use the old juices as the same Wattage, I need to increase the Ohm rating.

I.e. smok Natural loses alot of power and it sucks.

Yeah, I feel the same way about my natural. Not the best vape. Haven't tried a kick in it yet though.

I wonder if so much electricity is lost in the Natural mod itself, if using a kick will drain the batteries really quickly.

Using a Kick will drain a battery 10-20% faster than unregulated... YMMV.
