Questions before I buy a woodvil

[jakart]

So I have been offered a very pretty woodvil. I had two questions before I buy it... is there any particular problem with sub-ohming the woodvil? I run the reo I have around .3-.4 no problems but I'm wondering if the woodvil behaves differently. Two, is the woodvil "low profile"? Can I use my Zenith and Odin on it, and if not can it be modded so I can?

The woodvil is a completely different construction from the mechanical REOs. It has a mass produced switch that is rated for 3 amps.

Unfortunately for you, no, you can't put sub ohm coils on there and expect it to work for a long time. The general rule of thumb minimum resistance for woodvils seems to be 0.8 ohms. Don't go lower.

And no, it will not have a catch cup that fits Zenith or Odin.

For the moment: Stick with metal REOs.

+1 The new Mechanical Woodvils will be more to your liking. You'll be able to sub to your hearts content. FB says don't go below .7, myself I don't go below .9 I was trying for 1 ohm and made a .9 close enough.

^ this, Woodvilles are great but you need to stay at .7 or above and personally also run mine closer to 1 ohm. Nothing bigger than 14mm diameter on the newer woods, if it's an older wood the catch cup could be smaller.

so the big question how do feel about vaping a RM2 or cyclone at .8 ohms?

Bummer. It's such a beautiful mod, but I'm used to a different vape, not too interested in goin back to the rm2 and 1 ohm.

Yeah, I'm wanting a Woodvil too, but for the same reasons I'm gonna wait and see what kind of specs we will get out of the Mech Woodys at the end of the year. Hoping it will offer more things closer to the grand's offerings.
