Hello all, first post...
My usual setup is an SVD or eGo with a PT2, either the large one or the mini. I picked up an aerotank because i wanted something new. I messed with the airflow plenty but it never produced good vapor and never tasted much. Today I picked up a dual-coil EVOD and it's the same thing.
Ended up puting the aerotank on the PT2 and it's great. Same juice, same batteries, only difference is the coil now. I haven't heard anything bad about dual coils other than it burns juice faster, so just wanted to add my 2¢.
Happy vaping!
Welcome to the forum!!
Ok.. sit back and let me explain something real quick.
When it comes to vaping, vapor quality depends on how many watts goes through the coil(s). I like using 32 gauge kanthal on my Vamo, and a 1.8 ohm coil. I run it at 9-10 watts with a single coil. To me, that makes a decent vapor and good flavor. Now, if I put a second identical coil in there, I wouldn't get any vapor at all, because the SVD/Vamo's cutoff is at 1.2 ohms... two coils will half the reistance... So, the only option is to take a step away from my "happy zone" and build a minimum of two 2.4 ohm coils just to get the vamo/svd to fire. Even if I were to max the vamo at 15 watts, that's providing only 7.5 watts to each 2.4 ohm coil. So, I am supplying less power to two larger coils.... the only thing that's going to do, is lessen the vapor.
There are only two options available to help it.... one is to reduce the size of the wire itself, or get a device that can supply more power. Thinner wire past 32 gauge is not a good option, since it reduces the wire to wick contact area even more, and it's very fragile... so, I'd have to get a mod that supplies more power.
So, for my Vamo (and your SVD), I have come to the conclusion that dual coils aren't really feasible. Now, I do have a mechanical mod with good batteries that gets rid of that low ohm limit, so that makes dual coils an option for a mechanical mod. The other option would be to buy a DNA 20 or DNA 30 mod, but those are too pricey for me. Those allow 20 or 30 watt maximum output, so dual coils are an option with them. for me though, with my All day vaping vamo, I'm a single coil user.
I hope this didn't confuse you, but I thought it might shed some light on the subject.
