Joyetech eGo-c Twist Help

[lilmoose91]

I am wanting to buy the ego-c twist but not sure what dual coil cart to use. If I can use one, what is the diff between dual and single?
Thanks

I would not use dual coil cartos with a eGo Twist. The Twist does not have enough power to run the double coils properly. I have a few Twists and find single coil cartos, clearomizers and VVN's great on them.

I agree with bigsmke. Dual cartos are not what they are made out to be. I started out using them in my tanks and was wondering why I was often getting burnt taste with them. I gave single coil carts a try, and found out that I preferred them. Same vapor and vapor, but no more burnt taste, and I got longer battery use with them.

I have a theory: Dual coils are the same physically, except a dual coil cart will have a second heating coil half way up the carto tube above the bottom one. Looking at the arrows in the above diagram, when you suck on the carto, juice is sucked downward toward the bottom of the carto where the bottom heating coil is. Before long, the top and even the middle part of the polyfill is going to become dry. This can allow the top coil to dry burn the polyfil around it, resulting in that burnt taste I was always getting. So, unless you want to continuously "top off" your dual coil cart, the single cartomizer is your best bet.

Thanks, What ohms should I use if I put the twist on 4.8v.

For Ego Twist the most popular choice would probably be a single coil carto at around 2-2.5ohms.

I use Boge single coil 2ohm cartos at around 4.4 volts...

Thanks, all I have to do now is make up my mind lol, its between the twist and the evic.

General rule of thumb is resistance + 2.

So around 2.8 ohm.

I personally rarely got mine that high. Though higher voltage = less amperage, so it should extend battery life.
