This issue has raised my eyebrows. Are we sure that it's an ohms to v relationship or possibly the coil or setup? I'm assuming it wasn't just one setup used. All premade coils?
Is it just temperature hit or possibly a hot spot? All on silica? Something just sounds off.

Yeah I am using Leo's coils, they just act a bit different in this thing, and I don't know why, I have 2 of the same coils, in loki labs tanks. The BB's voltage settings are from,4 volts to 5.5 volts, on my provari's I have my volts set to 3.2 to 3.4 volts, and always tastes great. My BB I have it set to the lowest setting that it will go, 4 volts. The guy that makes them says it works best with a 3 ohm coil, at 4.75 to 5 volts, but it gets real nasty if I turn it up that much.

This just doesn't add up in my head. And believe me, I believe you completely. Just defies all laws of logic. I mean a 2 ohm cool at 4V is still only 8W. How many vape at triple that wattage I couldn't even tell you. So to have this at a simple 8W just makes my head scratch.
Man I almost wish I had a bb here. I'd lose my whole Friday night looking for it.
Just my brain trying to wrap my head around it.

I know, I am a bit dumbfounded by it as well, it is just a carto tank after all, the air flow was wide open, and I plugged up 2 of the holes and that helped a lot. I think I will take the coil out and dry burn it and see what the tank does on a ego battery, it will look strange though.

Maybe strange but I'd be doing the same thing. This way you an also open it more than the limits and see if it helps .

Picture of that, please.

Sorry I already did everything and it is back in the BB, I also changed the juice I was using thinking that juice doesn't like the sophia, I put castle long in this time. If the problem continues I will do it again and take a pic.

KAS

I guess I should add, that the coil was not gunked up or anything, and was glowing nice and even, and seemed to be fine on the ego, so I just put it back in the BB.

Thank you Billie for another great drawing and give away!!

I was looking around at what I have that is ready made but a higher resistance. I have some 2.4 ready made NR-R-NR coils. (Not quite at making them myself yet) it looks like I have enough R to add 1/2 a wrap to each end of the coil. Would that work to give me a high enough resistance to work properly in the BB.

I am trying to get my ducks in a row for when it arrives.

Well the r part of the build is in the center, so that would not work, so far the castle long has been tasting great. My problem just could have been my juice, it was a DIY recipe called Jace, and before this I was using it in a mini pro-tank, and tasted good. I kind of remember that some devices, like the KFL's and I guess the sophia, can bring out flavors differently, than say a pro-tank will pick up, I also know that a pro-tank is also known to mute flavors a bit also. I do really want to get a zapper at some point, more so now after I failed earlier today to do the tying method.

[yankeebobo]

Well, that's good news.......
So, are you suspecting hot, or more of a muted flavor which appeared hot....?

Kas I just checked where the NR connection is and I think I can do it there is just enough for 1/2 wrap bit it will sit low in the cup. I will have a bit more of a play and let you know. Mangled the one I was trying so I need to stablise the coil while I am doing it.


Ok disregard everything after hello. I just had my second cup of tea and remembered that it is the length of the R that matters not how many wraps. Doh sorry.

Well, when I was getting the heat, I had one of Leo's beck tips on top, I put one of his regular tips on top, and that helped a lot, but something was still off. I think that tip was doing something, but I am not sure, maybe the Jace was also vaporizing a lot faster then the castle long is, the flavor was muted yes, but it was also very warm. I know that some juices vape differently at different temps, but I thought it was going to be the same, because they are both 50/50 juices, the Jace has 4 flavors in it, who knows have many are in the castle, and the castle will turn to vapor at a slower rate? Does that make any sense? Anyway right now it is still working great, and the castle long in a Sophia is excellent, I was using this flavor in a KFL, and it is better in this, I hope it stays this good.

I'm with Yankee , it just seems off to me that 8 watts is hot. Now granted the Sofia and a RDA are totally different experiences but I'm vaping at 95 ish watts as I type this and I just can't see how 8 watts would be too hot. Something is amiss.

Billie if you are still interested, he has the stock up right now.

I really don't understand, why but after I dry burned my coil and changed the juice, it is working great now. I always get confused when you guys start to talk about watts, the only other devise I use is my Provari's and it doesn't show wattage, I know there is a math conversion, but I just don't have that memorized, I adjust by voltage, my old e-vic used wattage, but I don't use it much anymore, and when I did I adjusted it by voltage.

Thank you!

Good to know it's all sorted out.

As for the wattage of that coil, 96 is probably a tad high due to voltage drop but I was vaping a .18 ohm coil last night and I had just put a fresh battery in.

Here are the formulas that are used to figure that stuff out.

I really like that red, I kind of wish they would sell out, this is tempting me to spend cash, I don't have.

Kas I use this online calc. Makes it simple, for me anyway

If it ever comes to a point where you need to know ohms law etc just put an app on your phone. There are a few free ones for the iPhone, can't speak to the availability on android
