GG Penelope questions

[Nissen]

Hi

Was wondering what voltage are u using with the Penelope?. Would love to run it at 6volt, just aint sure if its possible.

Seems that the max resistance wire sold are like 2 ohms or so.

Otherwise i have to invest in a new PV, can only run 3.7 & 6 atm, and 3.7 dont do it for me.

you can make your own with higher resistance wire and silver wire

Sounds coolio ty, any tips on how and where to buy wire for such a project?

At around 6:30, Scott starts prepping the coil wire.

I am not sure what resistance/gauage wire you will need for that proper length of the wire.

Cheers wasabi

That helped me alot, just hoped i could use a single wire and reach higher resistance like over 4 or so.

Get some thin enough gauge nichrome or kanthal and I'm certain you can make a coil that would barely get warm at 6V. Nothing about the Penelope says you can't use 6V. You can make you're own coils with whatever wire and at whatever resistance will work for you.

That said, I do find in the Penelope, I run at higher voltage for the same resistance that I would with a commercial atomizer. Right now, I'm running about 5V on a 2 ohm coil. I'd be around 4.1 or so on a commercial atomizer at the same resistance.

Oh yes...it's very possible. I run mine anywhere from 6-7.4V. Just make sure your coil is wrapped for 3ohm or a little higher.

This UK company is a pretty good source for resistance and non resistance wires.

I accidentally grabbed the wrong wire yesterday and made a 6ohm coil using the same length I generally use. Luckily I metered the coil quickly before using it. Would have been a waste of time to install it.

Sweeet

Do u guys remember what exact wire u used to reach the 3+ ohms? Is it the 0.132mm Nickel Chrome Wire? or 0.142 - 0.15.

Cause wires.co.uk state that the 0.132mm are like 78.9 ohm per meter. that would be about 3.156 ohms for 4cm.

Or did u just use 0.16 and wrapped it enough time to reach the desired ohms like 6cm about 3.222 ohms.

PS. Coolio Mickeyrat & Hairball, made me happy u clarified that, always had trouple finding atomizers reaching my sweet spot with 6 volts, so guess with 6 volts on Penelope I only need like 3 ohms max, like Hairball stated. Cant wait to test it out.

PS2. ty Perpetua for info on wires.co.uk

PP3. 6 ohms Ezkill haha, u tryed your car batteri with that. what wire was that btw?
