I've had a spinner for quite a while now and have had the opportunity to play around with the voltage on several different cartos and clearos, tanks and other goodies, but now I'm starting to look for something with higher ohms so I can ramp the voltage up and not worry too much about that burnt taste. Do you guys have ready information about your products, and do you sell anything that is higher than the typical 1.5 ohm?
Is there any information for your guys' cartos and clearos with regards to ohms?

Also, off topic but when did you guys get nano clearomizers? I think I'm in loveeeeeeeeee.
Many places carry higher ohms carto and clearomizers. But it's really not going to change how high you turn your voltage up. I usually use 1.5ohm cartomizer in my tanks and run then at around 4.2-4.4 volts which equates to about 11 watts. I'd I have some thing over 2 ohms I still run it around 4.2 volts.
Do you know what the Ωs are on the current " cartos and clearos, tanks and other goodies"?
Use a multimeter to determine the Ω what you are using now.
You might find that you are already using SR (2.2Ω+)devices.
Have fun

If a 2.8Ω carto tastes burnt at 4.8V...~8W, it is not wet enough or the carto has a problem. IMHO.

I think S.I. cartos are rated at 2.5 ohms. The used one in my drawer reads 2.7 ohms.

SI's stuff is in the 2.6-2.8 range, I'm pretty sure. 1.5 is considered fairly low resistance. You can usually only get that with dual coils. I know people are wrapping their own stuff and going down to .8/.6 ohms. But that really is dangerously low.
I was just looking at the product page at SI, for the Ice Menthol cartomizer it says 2.8
FIVE Volt Cartomizers - Ice Menthol Cartomizers: 1ml e-liquid capacity Soft end cap 35.5mm length 9mm width Silver Threading Polyfill interior 2.8 ohms approximately

All of SI's delivery devices are a nominal 2.7 ohms. This is deliberate, to make sure that the devices all have the right resistance for any of the SI batteries.
If I didn't explain that correctly, somebody speak up!

Thanks for the information guys, much appreciated! 
Also, I'm seeing that I was confused because I have some tank cartomizers that are 1.5 ohm resistance but are not dual coil...I see now.

I'm thinking that maybe some of my cartos/clearos that are giving me a burnt taste are just running their last course. I'm going to try with a fresh clearo and see what the difference in taste is like.
SI doesn't sell anything under 2.4Ω that I'm aware of.
Their cartos are 2.6-2.8Ω, but they're tuned to work with Volt/X2 batts (3.6-3.7V), as is most of their other stuff (they try to make all their stuff work interchangeably). There's something different with Volt cartos that keeps them from following the regular rules. Maybe the horizontal coil thing? I tried them at first with nonregulated batts, and fresh off the charger at 4.2V, they tasted burnt.
I think I saw somewhere that SI T3 heads are 2.4Ω, but I seem to have better luck with them at 3.9-4.2V.
Not sure about the other stuff, but I'm guessing none of their stuff works well past 4.3V. Again, they try to make everything work well with each other, so their stuff is tuned to work nominally at 3.6-3.8V in general (except for the oddball T3, which does seem to follow the regular rules).
The Nanos started at SI (we even named it on this subforum). They came out with it first, then all of the sudden the Visions started appearing. If you like those, you should try the new mini-clearo too (T4). I hear they're even better.
I'm really starting to sound like a total fangirl with these, but HoosierVapes recommends the Vision VT with 2.8Ω heads on a Spinner at 4.8V. They're made for eGo/510, but will also work with SI Spinners (no adapter necessary) - just don't screw it on all the way.
