Quick question on VV batteries

[Bronze]

production tolerances.
A concrete block has an average weight of 35 to 50 pounds. I have one that weighs 42.5 pounds.
Your clearo will have a specific ohms value, and it will hopefully be somewhere between 1.8 and 2.3 ohms, maybe.

Well, I just hooked this little Kanger M3 up to a freshly charged 510 battery (listed as 3.3 volts on the Joye website). That gives me a range of 4.7 - 6.1 watts on this thing and it's hitting hard. And the vape warms up very quickly (but I'm not burning or drying) If the average vaper is at 6 - 8 watts and I'm maxing at 6.0 then I'm on the wimpier end of the scale...and that's if it is operating at 2.3 ohms resistance.

I'm a 40-year, pack and a half Marlboro man. Is it possible I'm a wimpy vaper man? I'm ready to fire up this Kanger T2 so I'll find out.

Read up on this.

It's obvious that 6 volts at 3 or more amps is where real men vape
I vape at 3.7 volts with big battery mods (for the past 4 years or so).
Instead of 'wimpy' I consider myself a

'light beer vaper'

Well Rocketman, I hooked up my new Kanger T2 to my Twist. It's rated as a 1.8ohm clearo If you can't already tell, I'm a newbie. Been vaping for a month now and been strictly a dripper and carto man. As of 11:40 AM today, I have entered the world of clearos by receiving my first two entries in the mail. Wow, quite a difference...and for the better. I am vaping some Johnson Creek Red Oak line. It's a 100% VG juice. I crank the volts up to 3.8 and I get the burnt taste. Clearly, this liquid cannot handle the 6 watts I am subjecting it to. I have to crank it back down to 3.2 volts which yields about 5.7 watts. The flavor is there at 3.2 volts. I should probably look into a higher resistance T2 but this is what came with it.

buy the parts necessary to build an eGo Twist. Not free samples, not discontinued boost boardS from eBay.
The board in the Twist probably has a fair market value of about $8 TO $10.
Can you build the equivalent for $20, using free labor

The equivalent? Why would I want to when I can use an OKR-T6 regulater (6amp/30watts max for $8.25) If $8.25 is outside the budget use an OKR-T3 (3amps/15watts for $6)

You will find that the wattage ranges of old simply do not apply to those clearos. They're not Boge cartos, and their power requirements are completly different. 5 watts is plenty for most flavors in a clearo. (about the same as 7-7.5 watts in a carto)

If the OK-R was so easy (I've done 2) why was there so much discussion about it.
There's probably a few hundred posts on what resistance values for the pot.
It's all in the spec sheets.
But the twist has it all wired for you. That would be great for someone that could tell the difference between red and black, but needs 'picture schematics' to build a circuit from scratch (building a mod with an OK-R ain't exactly from scratch)
The twist can do 12 watts, 2.5 amps, 4.8 volts. Seems to have charging all locked up with through the nose charging, and low battery cutoff. Even has an LED that the OK-R doesn't have (which seems to dumbfound some folks).

Of course either circuit would work, they both can fit inside an eGo tube.

You don't say! All along everyone is telling me the sweet spot is between 6 - 8 watts. I'm pulling about 5.7 watts on this Kanger T2and thinking that is plenty enough. This liquid I use is 100% VG and it burns anything much over that. Not sure if VG burns quicker than PG. I guess I'll find out when I start vaping some PG. I know that VG doesn't wick very quick. I'm thinking of adding some distilled water at about a drop per 1 ml. Not sure how effective one drop in 1 ml is. Just going by what I heard someone else is doing. You know what that is worth. Thanks for the info.
