I have been vaping for a year but am new to ECF and thus have to have 5 posts in new before I can post elsewhere and so...
I had a few Joye 306 LR attys (1.5 ohm) lying around that I hadn't used, until recently when I fired one up on my Joye EGO. Then, a couple of days later I was looking at the Cisco user's guide online and they warned that if using their attys on EGO/Riva batteries you just might get 'significantly reduced lifetime' on your batteries. So, knowing that the Cisco is 1.5 ohm and the ONLY thing that makes a difference here is the resistance (NOT the Manufacturer), I immediately stopped using my Joye 306LRs.
Now, a couple of caveats here.
First, I saw a UTube video on the Cisco attys and they metered in at 1.3 ohms, as opposed to the Joye 306LRs which metered in at 1.5.
Also, on the vendor where I get a lot of stuff now, Avid Vapor, they are now offerring Ciscos in 1.5, 1.8 and 2.0 ohm. They are also offerring 306es at 1.8, 2.2, 2.6 and 3.2 (but not 1.5), though I am not sure if these are genuine JoyeTech.
So, the question is, how low a resistance atty can you use on a Joye EGO and not be at risk for 'significantly reduced lifetime'.
Uh, to try to answer the question myself, I would think that you should not go below 1.5 ohms and, you are probably better off not going lower than 1.7/1.8 ohms, if you want to be sure. You can also stay at 2.0 or above if you want but that is probably being overly conservative.
No??
