Question: Battery life

[shaike]

Does vaping at lower ohm carto/atty drains the battery less than at higher ohms? Does vaping in watts prolongs battery life hence longer vaping time?

imho the more you charge your battery the less battery life it has but if i'm wrong please point it out so we can share, thank you

edit: you can also refer here Basic to Advanced Battery Information from Battery University (thanks to DaveP)

Great question. This article explained it so even I could understand it. What's A High Resistance Atomizer Hope this helps.

hi shaike..if U like me and just using VV(variable voltage,as i can set my battery power from 3.2 to 4.2V) batteries(i use VVeGo batteries 650 & 900 mAh type)..best atomizer/cartomizer for that is the standard resistance(SR) from 2.2 to 2.6 ohms..yes yr batteries will sustained using 3.2/3.7V(if U using the normal eGo,when fully charged is around 3.7V and decayed as U use) without draining yr battery power unlike if U vape say at 4.2V or higher, low resistance atomizer/cartomizer will burnt out fast and yr atomizer/cartomizer very short life ..saying that i dont get 100mAh=1 hr vaping..as i constantly vaping using 3-4 PVs in rotation..my 650 mAh battery will last me 3-4 hours, top and will degrade with time as U use yr battery with every charged..i go through 4-5 batteries each year,charging at least 2 batteries each day for my usage..so plenty of spares and backup..happy vaping ..regards mafig ps stick with standard atomizer/cartomizer(2.2-2.6 ohms) with standard battery from 3.2V to 3.7V-best result

mafig, thanks for the advise. I am currently experimenting with VW mods. Trying to grasp the ohms, watts and volt thingy. I see a lot people going for 0.9 ohms to go with mech mods. Was just wondering the effect on battery drainage. I find that vaping at lower ohms drains battery faster than higher ohms attys. I'm sure there's a scientific explanations to all this but i want other vapers to share their experience.

the lower ohm your atty more current will flow through it...the more current flow the faster drainage.less current flow less will be the drainage..
