There can be a fairly substantial spread of coil resistance even among seemingly identical devices from the same manufacturer. So if you have access to an ohmmeter, sort your cartos/clearos/whatever by resistance and mark them accordingly.

This occurred to me when I noticed that I was getting a particularly rich vape out of one of the four "identical" LR cartos I brought with me to work. I measured its resistance at 2.0 ohms while the others measured 2.2, 2.4 and 2.8. Of course, a higher number isn't necessarily bad - it's less drain on the battery and I prefer a cooler vape for certain flavors such as peppermint. But knowing which atomizers are gonna burn hotter or cooler helps you to match them up to your favorite juices.

This seems an easy, inexpensive way to enhance your vaping enjoyment if you're not ready to make the investment in VV/VW devices.

Vape on!
