JoyeTech atomizers resistance vs. eGo voltage

[DanFromRioRancho]

The joyetech eGo batteries are designed to have constant 3.3v. That is significantly lower than many of the clones that have an average discharge cycle voltage of around 3.7v, and (anecdotally) seems to be lower than most VV folks run.

I've searched the forums but have not been able to find the resistance of the standard joyetech atomizers, and the value is not disclosed on the JoyeTech website (or at least I was not able to find it ). It would be greatly appreciated if anyone here could direct me to a thread or provide the value if they know it.

Many thanks,
Dan

My Joye Low Resistance atomizer measures 1.5ohm which I believe is spot on. Pretty sure (90% sure) that somewhere I saw that Joye Standard Resistance atomizers are ~2.2ohm, can't remember where though.

Hi - I had trouble finding that info too. My feeling was they were in the 2.2ohm range, but they might be higher. TDC has attys on sale listed as 2.3-2.4ohms: Joyetech 510 Atomizer 5 pack [Joyetech 510 Atomizer 5pack] - $9.95 | Best Electric Cigarette | Electronic Cigarette

Many thanks!

That confirms my suspicions -- the JoyeTech kits are running at about 4.5 to 5 watts which is rather on the cool side, and that in turn helps (partially) explain the popularity of a lot of the clones and the appeal of the VV batts.
