Just a note for people with slim ecigs - the 1.5 dual coils are not for slim ecigs and could damage your batteries. Some people won't even go that low on enclosed batteries like Ego and Riva and will only use such low ohms on mods where the batteries are cheap and you can see any visible damage when you remove the batteries to charge them.

I only vape 1.5Ω dual coils!

I agree with dormouse.
all this "Best" stuff gets a lot of extra business for the vendors :)

If per chance you receive a 1.4 ohm carto in your batch of 1.5 ohm cartos you just may say goodbye to your eGo in a few days. I check 1.6 ohm Dual Coils for low ones (for me and my Big Battery Mods) and give the high resistance (at least 1.6 ohms) to the wife for use on her eGos.

If you don't have a decent ohm meter one bad carto can cost you.

But what the hay, still cheaper than smoking.

Low resistance on ego batteries can be lethal to your batteries so just a headsup about that. The MOSFET switches in proprietary batteries like the ego's can't handle the voltage pull and heat the low resistance requires. Yes, they will work but they will kill your batteries quicker than their normal lifespan.

If you don't mind having to replace your batteries sooner than expected, use 1.5ohms. If you don't want the expense of battery replacement, use the higher ohm'd cartos.
