Coils for higher voltage

[My Name Is Treetop]

Just got a nice smok brand battery (1300) so I need coils that can handle the higher voltage. Unfortunately I can't find any locally. Where would you suggest ordering online? Thanks

The battery has larger capacity (holds a charge longer), not a higher voltage. The coils you have should do fine

I agree with KenD. The 1300 number is the mAh capacity (how long the battery will last per charge). Unless the battery is a variable voltage battery like a Spinner or Twist, it is limited to a single voltage. Does your battery have a control dial at the bottom of the battery to adjust the voltage?

So by "coils", what type of delivery device are you looking for? A clearomizer, cartomizer, or atomizer?

IS IT A CARTO, A TANK, OR WHAT? GUIDE TO JUICE ATTACHMENTS

I was told by my co worker (who got me into this) that if I wanted to jack the voltage up, I needed a "higher" ohm coil (Not sure how to properly phrase it, hope y'all know what I am trying to say)

I am using the coils that came with my kanger protank 2

We don't always have the right answer immediately, but know the questions to ask.

Fixed Battery will give you 4.2v fully charged and settle in at 3.7v or so through the longest portion of use until it starts to drop dopn to cut-off point, around 3.2v.
VV can usually be adjusted from 3.0v or 3.3v to 4.8v.
Most basic top devices between 1.8-2.4ohm will work well with these.

What tank/top devices are you using now?

ETA: You have found the right place - now stop listing to your co-worker.

Boosting power and increasing ohms is sort of equal to being where you now are . Everything balances.

If your Vape is cool and you want it warmer with more vapor:
A) increase power - or
B) lower coil ohms

To much power to a to low coil = a burnt/harsh taste
To little power to a to high ohm coil = little vapor and not much flavor

Flavor does change quite a bit at different heating levels(good or bad)

thats correct but your getting pretty much the same result. But I like popping in a 4.5 0r a 5 ohm cart some times just to crank up the voltage for the normal man reasons cause you can and its there.

2.1 at 4.3 volts is about the same as 3.1 at 5.3 volts

So, if I'm using the coils that came with the protank 2 (2.1 I believe) What's the MAX voltage I should use? I like a huge hit of vapor, so that's what I'm after. I apologize for the foolish questions, I just don't want to ruin my battery

I run a protank 2 with the stock 2.5 ohm coils on an 1100 mAh twist at anywhere from 3.8-4.4 volts. It makes my fruits really pop. I build pretty solid 2.2 ohm coils that also handle that same range very well. If you're running a fixed voltage eGo battery, I've found that 1.8 ohm coils are the bees knees in every clearomizer that I have.

is this your battery ?

Most charts say 4-8.5 watts is the "preferred" vaping range for good flavor and vapor production so based off the calculation of voltage squared divided ohms = watts I would say run about 4.2 volts.

(4.2 x 4.2) / 2.1 =8.4

But then again I run my protank at about 10-12 watts on mid VW device. I really like my protank but I wouldn't say I get huge clouds, but hey I like it and it works. Hope this all helps.

That range is great. Higher wattage will sometimes cause a coil to prematurely burn out. That chart is typically for good performance / life of an atomizer. I do run some coils up to 12 watts with no problems. Just depends on what I'm vaping.

I always get nice, flavorful clouds on my pt2 at around 7 watts but I do typically vape delicate fruit flavors that tend to burn easily at too high a power output. I can't stand that nasty burnt/ dry hit taste. I also build my clearos with cotton wicks and that seems to help get good flavor with excellent wicking.
