can someone pleeease answer this question? have asked several times already lol

[drifter17x]

So why will a 1.5 ohm carto burn at around four volts and a 1.3 ohm coil in a rba won't? Is it beacause the wick is more heat resistant and the poly fill isn't? Also how would you make a low res coil with 32 gauge kanthal?

First question: yes.

Second question: 32 Guage Kanthal A1 is 1.2 ohms per inch. So, how many ohms do you want to run? 1.5 ohms will be about 1 1/5 inches of wire.

30 awg (Ω/in) 0.7 ohms
31 awg (Ω/in) 0.9 ohms
32 awg (Ω/in) 1.2 ohms
33 awg (Ω/in) 1.4 ohms
34 awg (Ω/in) 1.8 ohms
35 awg (Ω/in) 2.3 ohms
36 awg (Ω/in) 2.9 ohms

When you get into the world of RBA you can throw the Ohms Charts out the windows.

There are many factors why you can vape on an RBA at Wattage that would smoke a stock atomizer.

It's not about the voltage or the Watts it's about the temperature of the coils. The stock atomizers compact a lot of coils into a small space with little airfllow and minimal wicking material. This is a recipe for heat buildup which will fry your wick and your coils.

Generally an RBA uses lower gauge wire which has lower resistance and is thicker. The wires are more spread out , though some like to build coils together. Either way there is more surface area exposed to the coils. In addition RBA is more open generally with better air flow. The wicks are thicker. All these factors combine to keep the wire temperature lower by absorbing the heat from the coils.

Do it right and you can vape at levels that would leave a crater in your APV on a stock atomizer/clearomizer/cartomizer.

I'm currently vaping on a Bottom Feeding Variable Volt Bogger Box at 1 Ohm. My RBA is a Reomizer. Wick is Porous Ceramic and the Kanthal is 4 wraps of 29gauge.

I'm at 4.5V which is around 20 Watts. It's a great vape.

By the way my wicks of choice are Porous Ceramic, Braided Ceramic, SS 400 Mesh. I like em all because they don't burn.

*a little trick. The lower the Gauge the wire, the stiffer it is. I like 28Gauge and 29Gauge and have found that if I heat the wire over a stove [Now I use a blow torch] until it is red than the wire becomes less stiff and easier to handle.

You can reduce the ohms using 32 gauge by twisting the wire. A good video showing how...
