Health Cabin should seriously reconsider carrying the Smoktech xl 510
LR single coil 1.7Ohm cartos! aka "CCV Resurrectors", ..and also House Branded by
MANY north American companies, some who try to keep the manufacturer's name and model type secret!
Please understand the North American market which is mainly dominated by the eGo class e-cig running regulated 3.x volt or unregulated 4.2 Volts and less.
We are flooded with these
Dual Coils that have been pushed onto our marketplace that
don't deliver the Full Taste for e-liquid made in the USA or Canada.
Besides Price & Quality, It's all about the Watts! It's the Watts at the Coil.
A lot of the domestic flavours enjoyed here need those extra Watts at the coil to release the Full Flavours into the vapour stream. With Dual Coils that Wattage @ each coil is Lower, hence lower Flavour! There maybe more vapor, especially with all PG e-Liquid, but it has less Flavour then a coil running at higher Watts.
For example.
A Dual Coil (1.5Ohm) Carto that uses 3.2 Ohms coils on a 3.7 regulated PV (Personal Vaporizer).
Each Coil delivers only 4.3 Watts of Heat to vapourize Flavour and Nicotine.
There's more Vapour because there's 2 coils, but there's less Quality in that vapour due to lack of full flavour, Nicotine, throat hit...
Take a Boge single Coil (2.0-2.2ohm) on a 3.7 regulated PV.
That's 6.2 - 6.8 Watts
Ah! More Watts, more Flavour!
Take a Smoktech LR (1.7Ohm) on a 3.7 regulated PV.
That's 8.1 Watts!
Even more Watts and Flavour! ..and Nicotine, and throat hit!
8 Watts is right in the sweet spot for many e-liquids to deliver their full spectrum of flavor!
Darwin users who set their PV by Watts can tell you that 6.2 to 8.2 Watts is the zone for Great Vape!
3 ways that increases Watts @ the coil, Raise the Voltage, Lower the Resistance or with PWM power regulated devices, increase the Pulse Width. Lowering the Resistance by adding a second coil in parallel won't do it.
With the most popular 'market dominating' PV's in North America being 4.2 Volts and under, the Dual Coils miss the mark.
Dual Coils work great at Higher Voltage above 4.5 Volts. With Lithium Ion Batteries in e-cigs being 3.7 Volts (3.2 - 4.2 operating voltage)
you need lower resistance of a single coil to get the higher Wattage to bring out the full flavours, Nicotine, throat hit... Smoktech admitted to me personally and others I know, that the Dual coils were designed for higher voltage! (Higher Voltage = Higher Watts!)
Another disadvantage of the Dual Coils is that by not releasing into the vapour stream all of the flavour components efficiently is that they get left behind in the Carto fiber, wicking and on (and @) the coil. This leads to build up, clogging and further loss of flavour. If you run a Boge Carto on a eGo Battery until it losses most of it's flavour delivery (and also the Nicotine delivery) and then place that Carto onto a Darwin PV and continue to vape bringing the wattage up to 8.0 Watts, then returning the Boge Carto back to the eGo battery, It will have regained a lot of it's flavour and Nicotine releasing ability! You will have vaped off the build up/crud that would not move at lower wattage.
Another fact of the of Higher Wattage @ the coil is, the nicotine is better vapourized! That's more throat hit and a better nicotine delivery! Isn't that what we're after beside flavour?
Thank you for your input. that is helpful. but i am very sorry that we do not plan to sell them because the single coil one price is almost same as dual coil ones.
We don't care that the Dual Coils are almost the same price as the Single coils! Just because there's 2 coils doesn't make them better on all performance points. In North America we prefer more VG in our e-liquid to increase the vapour volume, Dual Coils that lack Flavour and Nicotine delivery are just a illusion. We now know what makes great vape, dual coils that are using lower Wattage @ the coil is a step int the wrong direction! Unless you can magically turn all the eGo & Riva batteries out there into 4.7 - 6.0 Volt devices, we need Cartomizers that will deliver performance! Not just a impressive looking cloud of smoke, or vape!
So why do many of use like the Smoktech XL LR 1.7 Carto over the Boge LR?
- More Watts @ the Coil = More Flavour, Better Nicotine release, better throat hit, Longer cleaner running coil, more time before build up in carto. - Better Fiber. The Smoketech's Filler lasts much longer, is more robust, holds a little more liquid, and doesn't "Fluff Up" as much as the Boge. The Boge fiber can often "Fluff Up" and close over the air channel restricting air flow/vape delivery.
Every single Boge LR fan (and there is a lot of them) that I've given the Smoketech XL LR 1.7's to Really enjoys them! After a week or 2, they would prefer to use them!
None of the online stores in China sell the Smoktech XL LR 1.7Ohm Cartos, that I know of. Many of us have tried to get them to, but we're continually told to go suck a Boge or Dual Coil
Cheers to Good Vape!
