Damn, just when I was starting to have fun our sensable leader has to ruin it for me.

Best Idea I've heard in a long time Mike DCs at a safe n sane resistance. You should call them the safe and sane cartomizers.

LOL , I am thinking around 2.2 - 2.3 ohms or so , I have to test them first , I only have the 2.5 coming because I messed up and forgot to add 2.0 ohmers to my basket !


Then we will call it the " Insanomiser " and it will sell like candy

The problem, to a large extent, is the poor use of nomenclature and a lack of understanding by SOME of how these Dual coils work and of the capability of today's battery technology.

YOU make an excellent point about dual coil's that I think is lost on many. When someone says "I love these Low Resistance Dual Coil Cartos" What they are actually saying is "I love the Higher Resistance vaping experience and extra coil surface area creates more even liquid atomization and improves the experience even more, and to Hell with the fact that I am heavily taxing my batteries and PV circuitry by drawing Double the Amperage"

I have No problem with this, as long as people understand what is going on.

Now here is a guy that truly "gets" it lol It is not at all about the latest and greatest! Hell I don't fall for the fan boys and girls that will tout certain vendors new products as the best and rarely ever try anything new until it has been around for awhile. Sure I would LOVE to have the DCs in higher ohms and get better battery life, etc but until I get through the Dcs that I have that happen to be LR I will use my Buzz at lower voltage and keep my vaping bliss :)

That's the name they needed to call the LR model. You would need to be insane to vape them at 5 volts. JK/JK

Now if they just used them on the 3.7 volt device they were intended for that would make perfect sense.

I have to disagree. I bought an ePower to have a PV that is a little more 'discreet' than my purple Buzz when I go out. I use the LR dual coil cartos on my Buzz at around 3.8 to 4.0 volts all the time. Using the same cartos on a 3.7 volt device still does not give me the same great taste as it does on my Buzz. I know it is only 0.1 to 0.3 voltage difference, but it makes a noticeable difference in flavor and TH.

Well I'm just quoting the Pysics of the battery and it's limitations. If you want to use them then by all means use them. But "E=MC2" and I'm not the one to argue with the battery wizards and tell them their physics is wrong.

Because I know so little about this stuff other than Ohm's law is true and more Amps pulled shortens batt like, what does 1.6 vs 2.3 amps do to any PCB ???? And to what extent ?

I posted the link to the information about 10 times. I just brought their info to you, I didn't make it up, what you do with info isn't any of my business. Both me and Mike have tried to make people understand but they can`t see the forest for the trees. I'm through trying to get it accross. And that deserves a yee haw.:):):)

I'm not arguing with the physics either. I don't understand physics enough to argue, LOL. I was just sharing my experience. But thanks for the permission to use them; I think I will. :laugh:

I don't think we really know how well the PCB will hold up in the long term. The thing that concerns me most has nothing to do with the Buzz or Infinity. On some seller websites there is a clear warning not to use the LR DCs on PVs like the Ego or small batt, or anything that doesn't have a switch rated at least for 2amps. We all know that everyone IS using them on those types of PVs and I would venture to guess that most mod users have no idea how many amps their switch is rated.

I liked the flavor from the DCs and I'm happy to know that they are coming out in higher ohms. I quit using the LR ones because I don't know what damage it may or may not do to the PCB. Salem, thank you so much for sending me a couple to try!! Looking forward to hearing how the 2.5ohm DCs work out :)

Ok what is happening is that the battery voltage on the ePower is drooping or lowering , this is normal . Batteries under load will reduce there voltage as the load increases . So really the eP is giving you around 3.2 volts NOT 3.7 volts !

A regulator controls this and keeps the voltage constant , that is why there is a difference .

wow... this thread is making history as we speak (write). DC's for the Buzz Pro... cool!

To quote Gmoney, "taxing battery and PV circuitry.."... batts are easy, it's the PV i'm concerned about of course. that's all i need to know.
So i have 10 LR DC's coming and no PV to use 'em on (other than an eGo and an unnamed smart pv at low low volts)... almost a good thing we still have to wait on the Pro to learn about these things.

I got a bunch of Fusions and DC"s i'll be trading for dse 901 attys.... btw.

I think what you are talking about is the IC or controller right ? higher current draw shortens the battery charge life I.E. how long it will work , Lower current = Longer charge life !
Hence higher ohm attys = Longer charge life

Bov the protection built into the Buzz and ALL Notcigs products protects the PCB from US USERS LOL ! so it is not a problem for the device it will save itself from us.
