Best Voltages for _ Ohms Chart

[Jonner]

Thought this might be useful if we could put together a chart listing what voltage works best for __ ohms, I know this is subjective but it might give some of us new to vv a good starting point, I'll try to get this started:

The best voltage setting for a:

2.0 ohm is 4.21 volts

Hey Jonner, are you basing this off of wattage, or by 'taste'?

I'm basing it off taste, or the "sweet spot," not battery usage or anything like that, and I realize this will vary with liquids, cartos, etc... Just though it might be good for a starting point.

Here's a great video that just got posted explaining the concept along with a calcuator. He's mainly talking about dual core but covers the single coil concept as well. In the end it's all about wattage and preference. I find most of my preference is in the 7.5ish watt range.

I'm finding my sweet spot in wattage is 8-9 range.

1,25, 1.25 ohm -- 3.4V, 2 ohm - 3.5V, 3 ohm --4.2V, 4 ohm --5.3V

Well since P = V*V/R,

V = Sqr(P *R)

So if you want 8 watts out of a 2.4 ohm atty you need the square root of (8 * 2.4) = Sqr(19.2) = 4.38 volts

it`s not only about power..It`s how you feel..depends of everyone in part

Great calculator thanks.

The calculation Is great but it depends on the type of juice, and personal preference , IMO.. I have found my sweet spot at around 5w , anything higher and my juices start to taste burnt unless I'm using hi percent vg , may equipment has something to do with it too, I use mostly ce2 style instead of typical cartos. From 2 to 2.8 ohms looking to getting on the higher range 3.2 and up to have a wider range on voltage.

 

[AttyPops]

OK. So use a 5 in the calc instead of 8.

However, I agree that it varies and is really rather...um... unscientific. Turn the dial up/down until you like it. I considered building a VV PV that was color coded for reference... just to get away from all the #'s talk, charts, calcs, readouts, etc. Since it's all subjective anyway... you just need a reference point for the setting for any particular atty/carto/juice.

Here's a chart I got somewhere here on ECF and saved on my comp:



Oh that is really small, so here it is from my photobucket:

I agree that the subjective experience is all that matters. If you really wanted to get scientific you would have to consider such things as the surface area of the coils in your chosen device, the boiling point of the exact mixture of juice you are using, and ever more variables. It isn't just amps, watts, and current. The scientific view just has too many variables, the formula just gets you in the ballpark.

all I know is i turn up the dial on my Buzz Pro till it tastes the way I want it to.

1.5ohm about 3.7v
3ohm about 5v

Taste is very subjective. Nobody can say that such and such watts is the sweet spot. There are simply too many variables to vaping. This is why I can't watch juice reviews. I used to and have been so disappointed with juices that were supposed to be awesome. IMO most juices do well at 9ish watts, but some taste better at 5 and other shine at 12. Its all personal taste here of course.

Here's a chart I got somewhere here on ECF and saved on my comp:

I don't understand this chart. If a carto is dry it will burn at 5 watts or less. If it is kept wet 10 or more watts isn't going to burn it.

The way I am reading her chart, it shows where it will possibly start to melt the coil or solder???
