New mod & tank

[klrr]

I've been using an istick Pico with a suntank mini and rebuilding with 26 ga. kanthal 5 wraps to about .5 resistance. Been using this for pretty long time. I haven't keep up with what's out now. Was thinking about a digiflavor themis mesh rebuildable and maybe a dual 18650 VW mod. Something with a least a 5ml tank and a pocket friendly mod. Recommendations please,thanks.

Small dual battery mods are widely available, some of the more popular ones are the Vaporesso Polar and the Innokin Proton. Best if you find it as the mod alone if you plan on adding an RTA.

I figured I'd have to buy them separate and not as a kit, thanks

Many of the mods are available only as a kit. Makes it a bit high on price to just toss the tank in the back of the drawer. I was able to get a Proton mod alone at MVS, but both of those mentioned are usually kit only. So you may have to shop around a bit.

Small and awesome, yes the Proteon is nice. Not heavy nicely designed and just all around pleasant. As far as tanks you will do fine I'm sure, but I will be of no use to you.

Good luck,

Anna

As single coil RTAs go I find the Solomon 2 to be quite good. Not sure of its capacity though. I know it’s not bad, but I’m not sure it’s a full 5 ml with the bubble tank (the straight side tank is near useless)

Any reason you want a dual battery mod? Just curious, after using a pico. Not that there aren't some good ones out there. Some pretty good single battery mods available too though.

Only because with a lower resistance mesh rta that i might need the higher watts.

Coil resistance in a regulated mod is really irrelevant. What is relevant is the highest wattage setting that you use and the amp rating of the battery/batteries that you use.

The misconception is that regulated mod users should use Ohm's Law. That is incorrect, they should use Watt's Law, a different formula.

Are you using a single, dual, or triple battery mod? In the interests of keeping things simple:

-If you use a good quality 15 amp CDR battery like the Samsung 30Q or Sony VTC6, then you are good up to 45 watts per battery; 90 watts using two; 135 watts for three batteries.

-If you use a good quality 20 amp CDR battery like the LG HG2 or Samsung 25R then you are good for 60 watts per battery. If using a 2-battery regulated mod, you're good for 120 watts as you have two batteries. If you are using a 3-battery mod, you're good for 180.

-If you use a single 25 amp CDR battery like the Sony VTC5A, then you are good for 75 watts per battery, 150 watts for two batteries, and 225 watts with three.

-If you use a single 30 amp CDR battery like the LG HB6 you are good up to 90 watts; with a pair of 30 amp CDR batteries you could safely do 180 watts.​
