How do i know if my Chuck is killing my atty?

[MastiffMike]

I kinda figured that one out. Cherish the link: it's your gateway to a bigger goldmine of whatever sort of thing you're into, if you know where to look.

Know where to look? I don't have a clue! LOL, I've avoided the whole FB thing because, just like the whole intraweb thingy, Larry (the owner of my local p0rn shop) says it's just a fad! Larry said that if they can ever figure out a way to use the interweb for p0rn then maybe it'll take off, but until then not to hold my breath!

Wa HUH? I'm vaping at 7.4v as we speak WITH a cart. Lots of people use carts at 5v+ and I've NEVER heard of it being too hot for a cart?!?! The polyfill will melt if allowed to touch the bridge but it'll do that at 3v!

And to cut the cart down? Man I don't even know what to say....

YES, those 510 carts can melt at the atty end with using 6 volts and higher, so you can cut the atty. And most Vapers I know never use carts with 6 volts and over, but l guess now that some do.

Thanks for the inputs, smokie. So far my cart hasn't shown signs of melting.

An update on my 4.5 ohm atty: so far so good. It's been three days since I first used it, whereas my stock atties only lasted one and a half day at the most. Not something to jump about yet, I know, but I'm optimistic.

Let me say I know my beautiful chuckista is not killing my attys. I got a bad batch where 3 out of the 5 went DOA too soon. So I was looking at buying a SLB/L2 atty at xtreme vaping.com

Any suggestions? I vape a little chuck so am wondering if these attys might last longer with chuck.

If not do you have any suppliers to recommend. I am paranoid and want to stockpile attys seeing as all these bans are happening.

Nhaler has those 5.2 ohm attys which are high volt.

I am vaping 3.7V so is that still considered high voltage? The ones at xtremevaping say They Ohm out at 3 to 3.5 Ohms, so they are best on the higher voltage mods.

Is that a good fit with the little chuck?

The Low-Resistance atomizer would be the best fit for 3.7, it would simulate 5v vaping without requiring a 5v setup. It also, according to Drozd's math, provides the best sweet spot wattage reading.

wow... acording to my math...for some reason that makes me chuckle...

There are so many variables to really consider...

as far as I see it optimized setups are:
for 3.7V
18650 batteries with LR atties...
for 9.13W of heat with an Amp draw of 2.47A (with a max drain rate of <4.4A on a AW 2200mAh for example)
yielding roughly: 1356... 3 second button presses

or 16340 high-drain LiMN battery with LR atty....
for 9.13W of heat with an amp draw of 2.47A and a max drain rate on the battery of <4.4A
yielding roughly: 266... 3 second button presses


for 6V
stacked AW 3V LiFePo4 16340 batteries with 4.5Ω HV atty:
for 8W of heat with an amp draw of 1.33A and a max drain rate of <5A
yielding roughly: 400... 3 second button presses

or stacked AW 3V LiFePo4 16340 batteries with vapornine turbo cartomizer:
for 11.61W of heat with an amp draw of 1.94A and a max drain rate of<5A
yielding roughly: 307... 3 second button presses


for 7.4V
Stacked AW 3.7V 16340 High drain LiMN batteries with 5.2Ω atty:
for 10.53W of heat with an amp draw of 1.42A and a max drain rate of <4.4A
yielding roughly: 460...3second button presses


Lol...how's that for some math....
NOTE: button press guestimates are rough and trend toward the low side...
and all batteries I list are ones where the Amp draw of the atty/volt combo do not exceed max drain rating of the battery

You can always buy VX attys that come with a one year warranty, even for burn out, from ...............

Ok math may have been not the best description. Calculations. Better?
