Hey nerf, you did it man!

East Mall is now selling pack-o-3, HV attys for $18.

4.5ohms and targetted for the 5-6v vaping crowd.

4.5 ohms is too low for 2x 3vs and way too low for 2x 3.7vs, you will get that same burnt taste you always do. I did a lot of research on these, I picked the ohmic value I did for a reason, and it turns out I was right.

Edit: The 'high voltage' atomizers linked above are 2.75-3.25 ohm atomizers, so I'd like to know what makes them 'high performance'

Hi Kelem, it seems you can be found in any place where people meet to discuss electronic cigarette matters :D

Pls. enter our site via the top domain to receive complete english google translations to english - not all content is available in native english.

By the way: to me, USD10 seems very expensive for custom resistance vaporizers, even if just 10 pcs .... my 2 cent.

Best regards,
Sven

Nerf I would be interested in getting 10x 901 Attys. I'm new here but getting ready to do some serious mods and this is just the ticket. Much better than using a regulator. If you still can't get 901's then 510's would also work but I would rather use 901's.

And to the few posts about low impedance attys for better vaping on 3.7v battery's it's just not feasible. You will go well over 1C discharge rate of these tiny battery's and end up with battery fires. Now if you are using a 18650 then yes you could but their is to much tempt to use it on say a 14500. Even a 900 mah battery just doesn't have the discharge rate to supply the amount of current you would require. BTW rough calculation on 1C discharge rate is .9 amp discharge for 900 mah battery and say 2.5 amp on a 2500 mah battery. In the RC car world their are battery's that can go as high as 5C discharge rate for small burst but they are very expensive and still get very hot while doing so. But you want to kept it 1C or under for battery longevity and safety.

well the low resistance field test wre positive, because of that the supplier stocked them up and saled them.

the test consists of ~30 atomizers send to members of the german ERF forum. not all of them liked the more harsh vapor that pushed the 801 near a 510 but on the 801 standard batteries it worked much better. btw its not only the resistance changed, these 801 have improved airflow and draws very light.
ona V1 janty stick almost to light, on all other devices it feels more like the draw of a real cigarette.

its a juice hog, as the 510 and you really have to keep it wet. but in my opinion its a good solution for poeple that don't want to mess with 2 batteries in series.

Hey Harpo,

I would head on over to Nhaler, I won't be making another order for awhile and Drew will be stocking 510 atomizers in the 2x 3v and 2x 3.7v flavors again in a few days.

Added bonus, they're no longer primed with the standard disgusting primer liquid, they're all being primed with 555 now ^_^

Thanks. Need it for my Chuck.

Just outside my comfort zone.
As for the rheostat: There's no doubt that it would be inconvenient. I suggested it because it might be an easier way to figure out the appropriate resistance.

But, thinking it through, more winds around the coil seems like the better way to do it, and the rheostat would probably just find the appropriate voltage for that particular atomizer.



Anyone have any idea what the variance is amongst atomizers? I've seen posts saying things like "801s are 3.5 Ohms" but it that +/- 0.1? Or +/-1? But I've seen other posts stating that "an 801 that's about to die will read much higher, like 12 Ohms" (or something very high). Even if a used atty has double the original resistance, isn't that half the wattage? (I have no idea - slap me stupid if an increase in resistance does not change the wattage.)

Sometimes I think that there are just so many variables that I don't understand what we're chasing.


And please note that I am not slighting your efforts here. I appreciate the heck out of them, and want to join in. But the computer QA person in me wants to eliminate all other variables, and just test the resistance of the atomizer. This means that batteries can't be used, one needs to use one juice and only one juice and all from one batch, and keep copious notes, and... Well, sometimes I just want to enjoy the vape. Life's a ..... sometimes.
If you think 12 Ohms is bad, I have 2 801 attys reading over 30 Ohms. They no longer work, but that's what the meter says.
