Newbie MOD learning, what to expect?

[wes1]

I have a pamphlet of all the pros, cons, do's, and donts, for mech mods also. I wrote it for the class I teach twice a week. If you would like a copy, send me your email in a message and I would be happy to email it to you. Happy vaping

Gotta say I'm very happy with the Sony 30 amp 2000 mah. It rocks all day long and stays cool as a cucumber. As far as a multimeter goes. My 15 dollar radio shack version works flawlessly. All I have to do is tap the leads together and factor that resistance into my readings.

Awesome man! I have had my Sony's for about 2 day's now and I've experienced the same thing. I can vape hard on my mod and the only thing that get's 'hot' is the atty. Really as cool as a cucumber is right! lol (cause it's green) lol

Do you have an iPhone? If you do get the ohms law app. You enter 4.2 next to volts then enter resistance of your coil that you get from your meter and it will tell you the amps that it will be pushing

 

[zhentipede]

there is a free app for phone vaper's tool box check it out

I use these apps for building/vaping

I can only find that for the Android phones. I have an iphone.

Peepaw is above androids. lol

Never had one, been a iphone fanboy since I went to a smart phone.

You probably have heard this already but one more time... put the dual coils away, get some IMR batteries ( Panasonic) get an ohm meter, learn ohms Law, read more on mech mods and coiling. The details in Cloud chasing are subtle, alot more going on than just wrapping up 2 small coils and puttin juice to them.... Im not fussin, Im trying to save you alot of grief...

Madvapes.com has a new one that tests batt voltage and resistance. Bout $25. It's actually pretty damn accurate.

Now, what about a clone MOD vs the real thing?

What are the big difference's here? I really can't find a defining answer anywhere.

hand made and CNC made ( real ones take hours to make the clones take only a few minutes to make)

 

[Bunnykiller]

Ohms law easy. Divide your voltage (4.2) by ohms (lets say .5) to get amps which would be just over 8. Also if making dual coils the amps double.

not that easy
quad coil in parallel heres the math:
1/((1/C1)+(1/C2)+(1/C3)+(1/C4)) C1 thru C4 = resistance of each coil

 

[Bunnykiller]

Two coils in parallel result in a total resistance that is half of the individual coils. I.E. Two 8 ohm coils in parallel equals 4 ohms.

Only IF both coils are of equal resistance

I really appreciate the advice man!

I've been told these batteries here are top of the line for this dual coil, sub-ohm building
4X Mnke IMR 18650 30A 60A Mechanical Mod Sub Ohm Batteries Free Shipping | eBay

Are the panasonic your talking about the new hybrids? Could you please provide a link? As well, which do people prefer?

I have these now - 4 Sony US 18650 VTC4 High Drain 30A Rechargeable Battery Nitecore I4 Charger | eBay

Thanks!

I have no idea what i'm looking at here... Is there anyway to be more specific in this description?

Not really.
Total resistance of 4 resistances in parallel = 1/(1/R1+1/R2+1/R3+1/R4)
Thats about as plain as I can make it?????

4 resistance in parallel? 4 coils? what is r1, r2, etc...

This is true only if you have four coils truly in parallel. Most I've seen have four coils in the build but still have two true current paths and each path has two coils each. Basically you have dual "series coils." Ignore all these related posts for a standard dual coil build Lol. It will just confuse you.
