Okay, so im assuming that you have an ego battery. First off, to get the most vapor out of your liquid you will want a 70% or higher VG (vegetable glycerin) e liquid. I recommend buying from vaporbomb or alien visions. vaporbomb's juice is completely customizable and alien visions' is 100% vg. I would also recommend that you get yourself some low resistance cartomizers or atomizers, they run hotter and therefore produce tons of vapor.
And for the low resistance cartomizers or atomizers they would work alright with the ego batterys?
Definitely. There's a table here somewhere here that shows what ohms are acceptable for each voltage. I'm pretty sure the regular ego battery fires at between 3.2 and 3.4 volts. You should be able to easily handle a 1.5ohm LR, maybe lower. Be sure to get single coil, though. 1.5 dual coils are actually closer to 3ohms.
Get ahold of a 1.5ohm HH357 Dripping atomizer.
Or, a Ikenvape i06 low resistance dripping atomizer is a little more newbie friendly and it's $8.99 at ecigcharlotte.com or at ikenvape.com
Otherwise, with a 3.4 to 3.7V battery, 1.5 LR cartomizers are your only real alternative for max. vapor production. And, like c.wherry said, the higher the VG, the more vapor.

Yes and no. Yes they place more strain on the battery, meaning you get less battery life.As far as burning out your carto, juice or battery, as long as you don't go to far, you're golden. I'm assuming that your Ego is a 650mahm? If so, you shouldn't have too bad a problem with battery life. I've been linking this vid all day today, because it's the best explanation I've seen re: VV, LR, SR, etc.

That is true, as a rule. The quality also has a lot to do with it. The hotter a coil burns, the quicker it burns out, but the more vapor it makes. It's a tradeoff you have to live with. I wouldn't go all the way down to 1.25ohms. You'll be fine at 1.5 or 2 ohms. Better atomizers and cartomizers last longer too. I have a 1.8ohm i06 atomizer that has outlasted any 3ohm atty I ever had.
Edit: To clarify. Given a battery with the same voltage and using the same juice, a 3ohm carto or atty will last longer than a 1.5ohm carto or atty. That's because the 1.5ohm will be burning hotter. If you could change the voltage so that each carto burned at the same temperature, they would last the same amount of time. But that would be defeating the whole purpose of using a low resistance carto in the first place.

Sailor,why is the Ikenvape friendlier? Everybody says the HH357 is for the graduate student, lol., but nobody really explains why. And are dripping atomizers different from regular atomizers. I've been trying to drip the atomizer that came with my E-power kit and I'm not impressed, but I'm not sure it it's me or the atty.

And is there a vapor production difference with attys or cartos or is in more personal preference?
The HH357 has a learning curve. It takes a certain "draw" technique as well. The i06 is pretty much a no-brainer and also less than 1/2 the price. Yes, dripping attys are different. They are usually wickless and de-bridged. The i06 has a bridge but it is based on a 306 atomizer and protrudes out of the shell of the atomizer. It's not down in the bottom of the assembly like a regular 510 atty.
People vaped standard 510 attys for a long time until it occurred to them to de-bridge or de-wick them. A couple years ago there was no such thing as a dripping atty. I still drip with a standard atty from time to time, so it's probably you. There's a fine line between keeping it sufficiently wet and flooding it. It just takes a little practice.
It's really both. There are other factors involved besides just vapor quantity. There's warmth of the vapor, tightness or looseness of draw and the flavor as well. Dripping gives the truest taste. CE2 based clearomizers are second. Cartos with a filling mute the flavor and some people swear they can taste the filling. So there's a lot of personal preference involved. Technically, if all else was equal, two coils contacting the same amount of juice and consuming the same current would produce the same amount of vapor.
I drip when I'm just sitting around. The taste is worth the bother. Otherwise, I use clearomizers. Sometimes when I'm out and don't want to mess with refilling clearomizers, I pre-fill some cartomizers and swap them on the go.
What is the capacity of your battery? If it's over 480mah and less than 650mah, it'll work but it won't be particularly good for your battery. If it's less than 480mah, it could destroy your battery pretty quick. Personally, I wouldn't use a 1.5ohm atty with anything less than 650mah, preferably 900mah.
What's the key combo for that ohm sign?
I figured it was probably me. I used the 3 drop method like the videos recommended and it didn't really do much of anything. Should I up the drops?
Not sure. The formula is:
Amp=Volts/Ohms
Since the sweet spot for my 3.7 volt device seems to be 1.7 to 2.0, then that would be 2.18 to 1.85 amps.
Since he's using an Ego tank, he probably has a 650mahm battery. So he could use the 1.5.
Ah.. I thought he was asking about a 510 tank, meaning the 510-T system. I'm not sure what size those batteries are.
650 is o.k. for a 1.5ohm.
I was asking about how to get the ohm sign instead of typing out the word. LOL!
The ecigcharlotte.com link does not work /: also the ones over at ikenvape are sold out
Let me check that link for ecig charlotte. The ikenvape site was down for a couple weeks, so there was a backlog of people chomping at the bit. I'm not too surprised they're sold out.
Haha...Sorry about that. It's ecigCharleston.com
But they're sold out of 1.5 and 1.8 as well. 2.5 is the lowest they have.
You might also look at the Ikenvape V2 Cannon. I forgot about this one. It's a great vapor maker. Same price as the i06. I have a 3.5ohm one I use for high voltage vaping. They have them all in stock. $1.99 shipping too.
