Cool Vape vs. Warm Vape

[Gergely]

Hi kids of all ages over and beyond 18. I've been ruminating on the subject of this post for a while now and thought I'd throw it out there. Although this will probably degenerate into a "Well, I prefer..." type question rather quickly given the 'versus' of the topic, what I really am thinking of while writing is this:

If analogue cigarette smoke had a voltage, what would it be?

This may be a dense question, I know.

I vape at 3.7 currently and use Boge 2.6/7 cartomizers because when I use the 2.0 cartos the smoke is just too dang hot for comfort. I also use the Kanger bottom/horizontal coil cartos (these are my favorite by far at the moment as they seem to take vaping to a new level) but I am pretty sure they are 2.0 so it is a question of the coil position here..I'm not sure.

I have a variable voltage device (VaporLuxe Rev. 2) coming in tomorrow or the next day and I know I cannot use LR cartos on it but I have been wondering if everything and anything will be hot as snot on that just by virtue of its voltage and my already stated aversion to the 2.0 Boge cartos or if I can find a happy medium as I have done with the bottom coil cartos (again I am 99% certain they are 2.0s) at 3.7 volts.

So, to repeat my above question in other words and underscore that this is not really a "I prefer..." type post in theory (but rock on anyway if you must): How hot was the smoke from a cigarette compared to the various voltages? I'm curious.

Be well people, thanks for any and all replies and a Merry Christmas to all.

I may be looking to sell a ....load of Boge 2.0 cartos come the New Year. Keep checking the classifieds here, as I'll let them go at cost.

It is really kind of a loaded question IMO. There are many factors they play into the temp of analog smoke like drag strength, filter size, how much you have smoked of it, ect.....

 

[Gergely]

You may be right. I have always seen so many people trying to compare flavor between analogs and e-juices that I am just curious whether or not anyoie has an idea what voltage best imitates the smoking experience and not just what voltage works well for them per se.

I'll be interested to see needless to say

That's a really interesting question. I think cigarettes taste cooler than vaping. I also have a 3.7 device. I have noticed that my dual coil XL LR cartomizers (1.25ohm and 1.5ohm) taste hot. However, when I use a 1.7 single coil SmokTech XL cartomizer (the Resurrector, etc.) that it is a cool vape.

...this truly how subjective it is...I find 1.5ohm DCCs much cooler than the Resurrectors...go figure.........

I'm thinking that in order to make the comparison, I'd have to have a juice that tasted exactly the same as the brand of analogs I smoked, but I don't. As I recall though, analogs got warmer as they got coloser to the end. E cigs are more constant, regardless of the type of carto you prefer. But, as a rule, the closer you are to the coil, the warmer it will be, at a given voltage.

 

[Gergely]

@Rule62: yeah, sure, that's true. We called it hotboxing a smoke, right? When you inhaled too quick, too much or passed it to a friend for a drag, whatever... But, I mean, reasonably, a drag on a smoke was a 'cool vape' like sandybeach suggests, I think.

Maybe this voltage thing has 'vaporized' any possible comparisons.

Heat level is all about wattage at the coil. The more wattage, the more heat.

@BiffRocko: thanks for your link, that is great info. But, how many volts in an analogue puff? and if your really on - How many licks to the center of a tootsie roll pop?

Sorry, couldn't help myself on the last one....

 

[BiffRocko]

I think it's impossible to make a direct comparison. The closest I found to an analog is 3.7v IMR batteries with a debridged Cisco 306 @ 1.5 ohms. That's a little over 9 watts. The Ciscos seems to run a bit hotter than other 306s I've tried. I believe it has to do with their coil design and the way it dissipates heat.

Keep in mind though that I like a hot vape. This setup vapes more like the end of an analog rather than the first few puffs. I imagine knocking off a watt or two would bring the heat level down to the first few puffs. It's something you'd have to experiment with. I'd suggest a VV device to do so.

As for the tootsie pop, let's see. One, two, three, crunch. Three!

If you don't like Boge 2.0 you could try the SR 3.0.

Or, Ikenvape has good cartomizers and they do carry 2.5.

They have some of the best cartomizers/atomizers around.

Yes, I do too.

Like post #7 the more you hotboxed the analog the hotter it got.
Generally speaking it was a cooler draw for me .

In post #9 -How many licks to the center of a tootsie roll pop?

Hmm well if you have a tongue as long as a giraffe ............
