Best wattage for Vaping

[DrkEpyon]

What would you say is the best wattage (Voltage-OHMs relation) to vape?

I've been different liquids at:

3.3v,1.8 ohm
3.3v,1.5 ohm
3.7v,1.8 ohm
3.7v,1.5 ohm

The e-juice i've tried are Camel, JC Silverthorn, JC Solstice, JC Rainier , Toasted tobacco, JC Original and the most recent and currently winner of all, JC Tennessee Cured (@3.7v-1.5ohms).

Any Advice?

Tnks.

Everyone has their own preferences. Just go with the one that satisfies your needs and you cannot be wrong.

It depends on the delivery device, it depends on the juice, it depends on your taste buds.

With all the coil heads I built.......2.0 - 2.6 I vape at 5-7 watts
this may help

Variable voltage is all about playing with the voltage until it's just right for the juice your are vaping and the coil it's being vaped upon. It's kind of like TV volume. I like it turned up a little and my wife turns it down. I think it's a result of my standing in front of a drummer all those years.

You just have to do some Experimenting and find what works best for your Hardware, PG:VG Ratio, Flavors and Taste.

When it comes to "Best", rarely does One Size Fit All.

3.3v,1.8 ohm = 6.05 watts
3.3v,1.5 ohm = 7.26 watts
3.7v,1.8 ohm = 7.60 watts
3.7v,1.5 ohm = 9.12 watts

So you have cool, moderate, and warm to choose from. I know what I like, but that has nothing to do with what you will like.

Thanks a Lot!

17 Watts -3.7v,0.8 ohm

Cool, Flavorful, Clouds of Vapor

But you need some pretty specific equipment to make it work without burning juice. eGo's and 'Consumer' Clearomizers aren't gonna work.

Can you share any combinations you use? Actually I'm trying different flavors and wattage and some ideas are welcome.

Making and using sub 1 ohm coils can be dangerous unless a person is well versed in using electrical test equipment, and is well versed in battery safety. Batteries can explode, and people can get hurt.

Here's a calculator for calculating wattage. Just enter ohms and volts and you'll get wattage. By using diff ohms you can adjust the wattage BUT you don't want to go too low as you may damage your batts.

Unless you're testing under load or using a VWPV, you can assume you're around 2 watts less than you think, considering the voltage drop under load is often anywhere from 0.2 to 0.6 volts depending on the mod/delivery/battery combo, IME. It's starting to look like 'watts' is becoming forum speak to replace 'X volts/ X ohms', which I don't have a problem with, but just an FYI.

I personally go for the lowest owns tha give the best throat hit vapor flavor. I just hate burning my lovely new attys

 

[yzer]

I bounce around between six and seven watts. My VV/VW rig eliminates voltage drop under load.

Name your equipment please.

¿Not knowing what a VWPV is makes me unallowed to at 8+ Watts?

I'll quote this handy disclaimer:

Making and using sub 1 ohm coils can be dangerous unless a person is well versed in using electrical test equipment, and is well versed in battery safety. Batteries can explode, and people can get hurt.

Right now I'm vaping MBV "Cinnamon Roll" with my morning coffee. 9mg, 30/70 pg-vg ratio.
Fresh battery @ 4.2v - Smok RDA "Octopus" with hand rolled wick and coil at 0.9 ohms. (4.2 x 4.2)/0.9 = 19.6 watts
I'll still be getting around 16 watts with this combination before I swap out the battery for a fresh one in several hours, usually around 3.8 volts.

Very smooth, cool vapor with mountains of flavor. I just made my entire 23" computer monitor completely disappear with my last "puff"
