coil resistance 101 questions here again. In short, working under false/incorrect assumptions, again. Ok, maybe I should have studied more in school and partied less(nahhh, but it sounded good), but, too old to change that now. So, short cut answers to Electronics for dummies in real simple terms.
I assumed that lower resistance, meant lower volts to fire, which would drain batteries at a slower rate. wrong? My faulty logic was, lower voltage was needed to fire the coil so the battery MUST last longer. ???
Seems in practical application that the lower the ohms and the higher I set voltage in relation to those ohms, the bigger that spread, the quicker my batts die? 1.5 ohms fired at 4.5 volts is worse on my batts than say 2.5 ohms fired at 4.5 volts? is that the basic idea? and when applied to mechs, same deal? sub ohms at a constant rate are batt killers? because of the spread?
Am I beating my batteries to a quick death by using coils at 1.5-2.2 ohm resistance? Would I be better off on a variable volt building 2.5 or 2.8 coils, and just turning the voltage up? Again, I thought higher voltage would drain the battery faster than lower voltage, so I was building lower ohms not for plumes or "better" vape, I was just working under faulty logic?
kinda thinking I already know the answer, but maybe someone more experienced than I can weigh in with a real simple answer?
As always, thanks in advance folks. Cheers.
