Question about atomizers and cartomizers

[tricci]

Hello all!

I am going to order an Omega from Altsmoke once they're back in stock (hopefully soon). I'm pretty new to vaping so I'd like to learn from some of your wisdom and experience.

Atomizers:

Which would you say is better: the Ikenvape 510 lr 1.5 ohm or the Cisco 510 lr 2.0 ohm? I want lots of vapor, throat hit, and I don't want to sacrifice flavor (if at all possible).

Cartomizers:

Which would you say is better: the Ikenvape Mega 510 lr or the Boge 510 lr?

Thank you all so much for you help! Happy vaping!

Their both good... it's a trick question... obviously you've done your homework... get both and see which you prefer...
1.5 Ohm is a hotter vape, and some PV's have a hotter 3.7 than others...
Some love 1.5 heat and some prefer the 2.0 warmth.

here's my advice; backups backups backups.

You would choke if you saw my atty stock box.

I've got an Omega and an SB from Altsmoke. I'm using the 2600mah Ultrafire 18650's that I bought from Altsmoke and they come off my charger at 4.18v. I've tried 1.5, 1.7, and 2.0 ohm atty's on each. The 1.5's tend to run too hot and give a burned flavor to the juice if I'm not careful. The 1.7's are about right for me, but the 2.0's are ok too, just not quite as good on TH and vapor production but still very acceptable.

As to carto's, I've tried Boge 2.0 ohm LR 808's with an adapter and they do pretty good. I've also run standard resistance Boge 510's but they're just a bit too weak for me. I haven't tried the Iken's, but have some dual coils coming in a couple of days from another vendor.

So, my suggestion is try some 1.7 ohm atty's, and if you want carto's go with LR's. I've heard good things about Iken's stuff so if you try them report back and let us know your impressions.

I will try the 1.7s. I've heard from a few reviews that the 1.5s tend to burn juice if not careful, so I'll probably stay away from those. Wow, 4.18v off the charger, amazing. With the hot spring the first few vapes must be awesome. I def want good TH. I only quit analogs 2 1/2 weeks ago and my Tornado Tank just really isn't cutting it in that department.

I'll let you all know what I think of the Ikenvape mega cartos. I've read they can hold any where from 50-70 drops of juice. Let us know what you think of the dual coils, they seem insane.

Out of curiosity, which do you like better, the Omega or the SB?

Thanks!

Personally I prefer the SB. With the Omega you push the whole top unit down so it makes contact with the battery. This takes the place of a switch. I prefer the regular switch on the SB. I also don't carry the Omega in my pants pocket like I do the SB. It's more easily activated accidentally, while there's virtually no chance of that happening with the SB.
