You match the ohms in a delivery attachment to the voltage you use. The Vision Spinner can do voltages from 3.4 to 4.8 volts if I recall correctly. Use the below chart to learn how to match ohms to voltage.

Find the voltage range you typically vape with in the top horizontal column (3.4 - 4.8 volts). Staying in the green blocks below this, draw your attention to the far left column where ohms are listed. You'll see that the ohms you can use by staying in the green blocks for the voltage you typically use. Just make a right angle from the voltage column to the ohm column. Where they meet in the green blocks is the wattage you are vaping at. Now you know how to use the chart.

If you prefer a warmer vapor, pick a smaller ohm number. If you prefer a more cooler vapor, pick a higher ohm number. For another way to pick the voltage for a particular ohm, use the ohm number and add two (2.0 ohm + two = 4 volts). 4 volts is a good place to start, and adjust lower or higher to taste.

The way I always think about it is this: ohms is just a measurement for resistance. The lower the resistance or ohms means that less voltage is needed to power the coil. Higher resistance is the opposite. Lower Ohms are best when using with regular ego batteries which have a set voltage of around 3.7. Don't be too worried about the calculations. All you need to do is start adjusting the voltage until you find your "sweet spot". The vaping chart is very informative but it isn't always a hard and fast rule, since some juices vape better at some voltages than others. In a nutshell, twist until you get a good vape and enjoy those clouds. :)

Thank you so much for the chart!
