Don I hope I explain this clearly ???

Theres a clear relationship between , volts - Ohms- amps , Ohms Law calculates these relationships ( V over I/R ) where v = volts , I = amps of current , and R= resitance in Ohms , all of electronics and electrical is based on this.
Power /watts is calculated based on this relationship.
Example : if the V is fixed @ 6 V ( like a battery ) and the R is 3.5 ohms the I =1.71429 A , and the power is 10.28 watts. play with the calculator link it will help you to understand the relationship.

More power = more heat from a heater coil

The attys I have checked are around 3.5 ohms 901,510 ( only ones I have tested ) I think Nerf has a list of atty OHMS ?

Attys have ohms batteries are not looked at that way ( they have an inherent resistance )

Batteries are storage mediums rated in Volts and Amp hours ( or mah , 1000th of an AMP HOUR ) your 250mah batt has more storage capacity than you 150mah , a 250mah batt. can run 250ma for 1 hour until it hits a rated discharge amount ( I cant remember but I think it 60% or so ???? dont quote me on that ! )

I hope this helps and does'nt just cause MORE comfusion:confused: LOL ! , if you have any other questions just ask me I have many years in the electronics area.

There are some WAY OUT THERE statements made around here regarding V/I/R !! and some seem to think that there is MAGIC involved , but it is as simple as OHMS LAW ! ALWAYS !!!!!! ( HELL your cell phone would'nt work without it ) :thumbs:
Thanks, Marlbuzz! Let me check my understanding:

Ohms Law: I = V/R
I is current, measured in amps
V is voltage, measured in volts
R is resistance, measured in ohms
Joule's Law: P = V x I = V(squared) / R
P is power (i.e., the bottom line), measured in watts
ohms-watts_law.jpg

P = V(squared) / R

As a non-technical, non-modder end user, all I care about is power (and mAh*, but that usually is specified and I'll deal with that on another day). Since voltage (V) is always specified, the other piece of information to gather (and which, for some reason, is not usually specified) is resistance (R).
* mAh is relevant in this context (beyond puffs per battery charge), because the higher the mAh, the longer the battery will generate its maximum voltage (e.g., 4.2V for a "3.7V" battery).
It is the resistance of the atomizer (not battery) that is the factor, although I've heard that some battery housings (e.g., the Chuck) have lower resistance than others.

So resistance is very relevant to the vaping experience. Why is it shrouded in secrecy? Voltage and mAh are the first (and last) attributes published about a vaping device. I would think that the resistance (of the atty or battery housing or whatever) would be discussed just as much.

BTW, I've not been able to locate that Nerf "list of atty OHMS." Can you point me/us to it?

Thanks!

Maybe I will write that "illustrated guide," once I confirm my understanding and gather all the relevant facts.

uh... could someone tell me if this HV801 is ever gonna be a decent vape with 2 3.0 tenergy lifepo4's? Using this in a chuck with adapter, the thing starts to make vapor, then as it gets "hotter" (sequential hits) the vapor thins to nothing and it's kinda like vaping hot choking something... then, after it cools a bit, it makes some vapor again. Are we talking it just isn't broken in (although I cant imagine it isn't yet for all the hits I've tried).

The resistance measures 5.5 on my ohmmeter.

I had so hoped this would be worth it. The last 2 regular 801's I got from Drew (nhaler) blew out in 3 days each at 3.7 volts... and at 8 bux each, that starts to get kinda spendy. I was hoping to get some life out of nhaler's HV801 :(

Did you measure before or after use? Your description sounds like my experience when one of mine half died and measured around 2.8. Other than that, mine vape kind'a cool with much vapor. Mine are from Eastmall. May be different from yours.

5.5 both before and after many drags and a couple weeks.

It sounds like it's possible that you have a liquid delivery problem and not a heating/cooling problem. You might try dripping to see if that helps, and if it does, look into a cart mod to more quickly get liquid to the atty.
