Since you're used to low ohms, rda's and perhaps lung hitting, why would you not look at something like the Orchid or the Erlkonigin clones vs the KFL ones? They have far deeper juice channels and excellent air flow in comparison.

Just curious about thought process, so I can perhaps make better recommendations the next time somebody asks.

Pop is not really a low ohm vaper Dust. He's been experimenting lately with subohm but he is primarily a 1.2ish ohm vaper.

Actually, the new Reos LP/ RM5 is one of the mods I'm seriously thinking about selling. While it is an impressive piece of equipment, I find Myself passing over it for my Grands/ VV Grands and Woodvil. It does change the flavor considerably. Just too much TH for me.
I will still send my Classic grand back for the new contacts and 510 connector when it becomes available.
This returns me to where I started; I still like a cooler, smoother Vape. Thus another look at the ProVari.
Of course, when I sit down shortly to pay the monthly bills, this onset of 'Shiny-itis' might just disappear for awhile....

Note to Bronze- more like 1.4 to 1.5, usually looking for around 9W to 11W.

Lol.. 1.2 is low ohms. I didn't mean sub ohm.

You know my vaping habits too. I'm generally in and around the vicinity of 1.5ohms +/- .2 ohms. I also don't think I need to in any way explain how much I love the KFL's.

Times are a changing though, and our old KFL's are ok for die-hards like us. I am experimenting and experiencing enough success with the newer toppers though that if I were recommending something to somebody new, I'd suggest what I did, over the previous generation KFL's.

Pop prefers a vape similar to many of us...me, Dust, Robin, April, Pap, others. I guess I think of "low" ohms as subohming. Then the DNA 40 will change all that.

I currently vape using a 28 gauge, 1.5 ohm coil at 8.2 - 8.6 watts depending on the juice. I find DF VERY sensitive to power.

 

[Dusty_D]

I've got a 28g, 1.7 ohm coil at 10W going with DF here.

DF going here too Dust and I'm enjoying the hell out of it.

28 gauge, 1.5 ohms at 8.2 watts.

.18 ohm 22g dual coils in a mutation x on a TiD box mod for me today

Oh to be young again!

Certain E-Liquids are better at lower ohms, but then there are others that don't respond to the wattage as well. I like my sweet vapes on a dual coil, but I am finding that I prefer my NET's at around my customary 9 to 11 watts. I don't want to change my juice selections based on the equipment. I want my equipment ot match my personal tatses in e-liquids. Does that sound right ?

Hi guys, long time no see. I'm behind the (vaping) times, but here's my latest: KSD Vamo 20w with a Nautilus BVC. 1.8 ohm, running at 15w. Oh, Grape HHV btw. Unbelievable vapor, tho not like that Atlantis sub I bet. [emoji4]

Can you fill the Erik with a HHV juice bottle?

 

[DavidOH]

My standard 1.3 @ 21 watts. Yes ribbon wire.

So you're saying you want your mod to do everything? What kind of watts are you pumping into your dual coil builds?

Ice, is that KSD Vamo the DNA version?

Man you cook your juice. Are you single coil?

 

[PapawBrett]

Right now twin 1.2 micro for 0.6 total ohms. At 3.7V that's about 23W (although with fresh battery it's more like 25 or 26 Watts).
Higher resistance seems to take longer to heat up, lower is just way too hot for me.

I think KSD made a couple of DNA style versions... I got the first of the 30w versions which are limited at higher ohm resistances to only 20w... I believe the later versions had that corrected

 

[PapawBrett]

Am I allowed to say "might want to check the Classies around lunchtime" or will Dusty edit this post ?

You are not allowed to talk about your Classifieds postings but then, you already know that!

Oh. OK. I guess I'll just go watch the Bears and Lions game then.....

No sir, no DNA.

Yup in the KFL.
