couple noob questions

[Chosen_1]

Ok i just ordered 4 dcc 2.5ohm cartos, 2x 901 2.5ohm atty, and one 5ml tank...

so i just got these in today, first things first. i opened up the tank package and noticed a little white plug in there, its similar to how those rubber mouth pieces are on the single coil catos... what is that for?

the next thing is i fired up a 901 (2.5ohm) and it seems a bit weird.... i put it on 3.7v and its not enough, i go up to 4.5v it vapes but no flavor, 5v same thing as 4.5, took it as far as 5.5v and its too hot....

i dont know whats going on here, what volt do anyone recommend? im using a lavatube if this helps...


please help!!!!

ty in advance

The white plug isn't for anything but a moth piece, I take them out and use a drip tip, you should get a volt reader or make one and look to see how much volts your lava tube is putting out under the 2.5 ohm load of your atty. it could drop off and need a higher voltage. Usually I vape my 2.5-3.0 cartos at like 4.5-5v. Hope this helps. Here is a pic of my self made volt reader.

I'll post you my schematic I made if I can find it, it's super simple if you can solder. All you need is: a project box, four cut wires, a male and female connector, and a volt meter,. You can get all this from MV for under 10$.

only thing is those meters dont work well on PWM outputs maybe adding a 10uf cap might help

Mv does have a Voltage Indicator that they sell for $15. They have it in black and another in white. Although they're really easy to make, MV has theirs in a really small case with a plastic window on it. Very convenient.
