Hi all!

Hi all.
I'm a newbie to the world of e cigarettes and have just bought an Itaste MVP 2 which is serving me well to come of the actual cigarettes. I wanted a new tank for it and purchased a Vostro 2 which is perfect but I'm concerned about it. Everything seems to work great but I've been read a lot into this Ohms etc and it's scared me lol I'm running at 3.7 volts and the coil is (0.5ohms on the box) however I imagine it's a 1.5 ohms coil does anyone know if this will be safe to run at that voltage etc? Thanks for any help and ideas.

Hi @rawritsjonesy and welcome to the forum.

The rule of thumb for EVERY vape device you'll ever own is the same. Start low power, take a draw and bump the power up to repeat. If it starts to taste funny, gets too hot or tastes burnt, back it down. Different flavors will have different sweet spots so you just have to experiment.

Good luck in your journey.

Just worried it would blow up haha. Thanks for the advice

It is unlikely to blow up while vaping. That's a regulated mod and they're actually good at it. The ones that blow up are usually mechanical mods, one of which you don't have, and even then almost always due to operator error. Regulated mods with fixed LiPo battery packs-- you do have one of those-- can be unstable while they are charging their batteries, but this is true of all LiPo batteries, including the one in your cell phone, and has nothing to do with vaping; it's the nature of the battery. Just don't handle it roughly while it's charging and you don't have much more to worry about than using your cell.

The MVP will only run the Vostro 1.5ohm coil (or anything 1.2 to 3.0, maybe more)
I don't think you can get anything lower than that.

Thank you!

 

[rawritsjonesy]

Thank you everyone. It's all good information to know.

I am new as well. When I received my battery I had the same concern so I googled "ohm watts chart".
Basically with this chart you can see what is the max temperature you can use with that coil in order to avoid risks. Knowing the ohm law and related stuff would help more, but as a newbie I am glad I found those charts.

 

[rawritsjonesy]

I've been looking at the charts pretty handy. Feel loads better having real world advice though.
