High or low resistance atomizers

[murrajes]

What's the difference? Does it refer to the bridge with the meshy thing? Vapor production?

 

[dotma]

it refers to the ohms of the atomizer. Somebody will come on who is smarter about all this electrical stuff than me. But basically lower resistance atomizers give you more of a feel of high voltage vaping when you use it on a lower voltage device, like an ego. High resistance atomizers work better on like a Lavatube where you can go to a higher voltage.

Generally speaking, Low Resistance for 3.7 volts, and High Resistance for 5,6 volt. Just about anything for a Variable Voltage mod. YMMV...

To "Oversimplify things" as a "guideline only"

Using Single Coil Atty/Cartos

1.7-2 Ohm is Low Resistance (hotter coil) > 2 .5 Ohm is standard resistance (3-3.2 probably most common) Using too low resistance at too high voltage will cause problems at the very least (blown atty/carto coils, trip protection circuits in PV or batteries etc. )
