I like the crackling sound!! is that a bit weird it says on the box
resitance 2.2
does that help??

2.2 ohms at 4.8 volts is a bit on the hot side, but these little devices aren't always exactly the resistance they claim to be. As long as it tastes good, go for it. Crackle good! Gurgle, hiss bad!

This chart is a rough idea a "good" vaping range. You may prefer a little up or down (and as I posted, things don't always have the resistance they claim to). It's a learning curve and no one gets out of here without dry/burnt hits, but after awhile you'll be able to tell when it starts going awry:

That chart is a really rough guide. Many of us have been vaping 9+ Watts as a norm for several years. It's more like state of vaping 2010. 1.5 ohm on single batteries & VV/VW are hardly exotic these days.

Granted, different liquids play well at different power levels, and starting down around 7 Watts is fine, but the warnings on the bottom starting at a whopping 8.7w are a bit over the top, and it would be pretty rare to hear someone actually saying that vaping 3.6w is in the sweet zone.

It's easier than you think, when you want a cigarette just throw the pv in your mouth for a while :vapor: Gotta get your mind realizing that the liquid has the nicotine that we crave it only lacks the chemicals. Make sure to drink plenty of water! I still catch my mind wanting a real cigarette every now and then but I just ignore it.
