Reecommended CE2's to vape over 5 volts ?

[John Phoenix]

So I'm getting a VV. I use 3.0 ohms at 5 volts regularly now. I want to go higher with the VV. For that I need coils rated at 3.2, 4.6 and 5.2 ohms (I understand these sizes are made.. don't know about any others) But, I want them in CE2's I cannot find them.

Heck I cannot even find them in regular cartos. Any help? Recommend any and all styles, 306's, regular cartos, atty's I have to use with cartridges (yuck) and especially CE2's.

If I cannot get them in CE2's I may just have to get what I can and live with it. Or any other ohm rating above 3.0 you know of.

The highest I know about is the 3.0 to 3.2 ohm Fluxomizers from Gotvapes.com. If I find anything else, I'll post a link.

Just wondering...I got a Lava Tube a couple of weeks ago, and I find it difficult to vape anything above about 4.7 max, before the taste goes sorta 'burney' on a 2.6 to 2.8 ohm Fluxo. Is that because the ohms are too low???

 

[washvap]

You can use the 3 ohm CE2's at 6V's. But, if your looking for higher then I did find some 5 ohm cartos for you. They also have 4.5 ohms, etc.:

Gotvaps has some Fluxomizer 3.5-3.6 ohm in stock. That's the only Fluxos I'd recommend over 5v. I use the 3.0 ohm Fluxos at 5ish volts or just under, over 5 they start getting to hot for me so I couldn't recommend them at 6v, 3.5 ohms should rock there.

I swear some of you are insane I get clouds of vapor using a 2.4-2.6 ohm CE2 and a eGo battery lmao...

I LOVE my ego batts, but I just bought a Lava Tube and feel obligated to bombard my innerds with scorched/burnt flavors for awhile.

The extra warmth is pretty nice, and something I haven't gotten off an ego batt yet, but it seems like the most desirable flavors are coming in around 3.7 to 4.2, for most of my juices. Still playing and experimenting...(and learning)

 

[ChrispyCritter]

I'm joking around..somewhat lol..I might build a mod sometime and mess around with volts but more because I like to tinker with things that to get more vapor. Although I'm great with mechanics and electronics I'm not good at making things look pretty LMAO..it's ok though I'll take function over looks anytime. Also I already am cleaning,rebuilding and making my own atomizers for dripping out of CE2's

Don't knock it until you try it. I vape dual coil cartomizers at 6V.

To the OP, 3.0ohm is fine to use up to 6V. If you're going to use the ce2's, you can't chainvape them because at the higher voltage, they will go through juice fast which the ce2 can't keep up with. I recommend a Boge 3.0ohm for 5V and up or a dual coil carto.

I don't think I will be going back to polly filled carts again..just don't like them as they seem to not give as much flavor as CE2's and I think CE2's on my eGo and my XL 510 autos work great. Also with the equipment I have now I'm already going through enough ejuice I can't imagine using more

I think for CE2's to be vaped at a high voltage it would need either dual wicks or a thicker wick or maybe a wick that could absorb more. You probably could build custom CE2's and have 2 wicks one on top of the other (tried 2 strands of wick in a custom built CE2 atomizer) and put as much NiChrome wire for ohm's needed but you wouldn't be able to use the cup the way it is you would have to either cut it down or turn it upside down..I'm sure it could be done..probably for them to manufacture something like that they would have to change the design some...

MikenGa,

I find the Fluxo's favor the low end sometimnes so your 2.6-2.8 may be closer to 2.6. People are finding with different batteries and different LavaTube Units where quality control is not very matched, some units perform different than others. It's possible your ohms are just too low for the voltage and the LT voltage limiter is kicking in. I know myself a 2.8 ohm Fluxo on a regulated 5v mod does burn the juice.

You may wanna ask in the Lavatube forun or over in the Volcanoeciogs forum.

washvap, Nomoreash,
Kool. I should have seen the 3.5 fluxo's.. dont know how i overlooked them. The smoketech at 4.5 is one I'll try. Still wanna find at least 1, 5.2 ohm to try.

Hairball,
Thanks but I don't like dual coils.. I find them too airy hitting.

ChrispyCritter,
Yes, I'm insane. LOL. Sure you can get lots of vape from an ego batt and a 2.0 ohm, ( I did it for many months) But you can get more vapor and stronger nicotine going up on your voltage, even if your pulling around the same watts for your given Ohm. The vape is warmer too. Some flavors taste better at higher voltages. All these things cause higher volt vaping to appeal to many.

 

[Big Screen D]

For a CE2 you would want no less than 3.5 ohm. I have some of these, and they don't work well over 5v IMO.

My recommendation is to try dual coil carto's at both 2 ohm and 2.5 ohm and see what works best for your rig and juices. Avid vapor sells em. They work very good at higher voltages.

I always felt the regular CE2's even higher resistance ones didn't wick well enough to go high voltage. The Vision clearos which are 3.5ml CE2 styles seem to keep up. I'm not sure if GotVapes has higher resistances, but I got a 3.2 from MadVapes and that did ok at 5v, though I liked it a little better at 4.5v. I did a review a while back on those too: Vision Clear Cartomizers Review - Large CE2 Style Clearomizer

 

[pmoraldo]

I run 2.0 boges at 5v and 3.0 boges at 6v with no problems and vape mostly vg and fruity flavors and i know others that run the 1.7 ressurectors at 5v with no problems

Have any of you tried the dual coil CE2 style cartos yet?
I don't know if they are MiT/Royal Smoke brand, Beauway, or whatever, but I have seen some in Internet browsing.

I'm guessing that they'd be similar in principal to the way the Smoktech dual coils work. A pair of really high resistance coils in parallel (which gives a low total resistance). Cooler coils, but twice as much surface area. This might be the answer to vaping a CE2 at higher voltages?

Please forgive me if I pull up a non ECF member (just want to show they exist), but a quick search gives me this link.

Not to continually plug reviews I've done, but... I did a review on that one too e-Cigarette Hardware Review: 3.5ml CE2 Style Dual Coil clearomizers which was from the store you linked to. Anyway, they are indeed done by Royal Smoker and those huge wicks work pretty good.

Ah jeez, did you have to go and post something as cool as a dual coil CE2. Now I'm going to have to try yet another thing!

Don't really see where they would be any better for 6V vaping though. 1.5 duals are still 3ohm coils. But I'll say this, IF BOTH WICKS wick well, then I'd imagine they'd put out some insane vapor.

 

[John Phoenix]

Wow. Seeing as I don't like the filler type dual coils and prefer CE2's, this dual coil CE2 WILL be worth a try. I didn't know they existed. Wow. Just.. WOW.

StotheK, I read your review. Sounds like I might love these. I am hoping to get a great vape at 5.5 volts. Er.. this says, " 1.5+.02 ohms." I don't get the .02 ohms. This sounds like one coil is 1.5 ohms and the other is .02 ohms. Don't regular dual coils use two 1.5 ohm coils for a total of 3.0 ohms?

I need to be sure this is not going to trip the 2.5 limiter on a Provari or LavaTube like a low resistance carto does. Do you remember how these work at 5.5?

Edit. The .o2 might have been a typo. They have another dual coil CE2 and it says, 1.5 + 2.0 ohm. Hmm a total of 3.5 ohms would be cool at 5.5 v I think.

Er.. this is for a Leo. What's a Leo?

Because...
With a dual coil, you are splitting the wattage over two high resistance coils.
Think of it like two 40 watt bulbs instead of one 80 watt bulb.
Each coil is going to burn half has hot as a single LR coil would.

Lets say you have a 2 Ohm dualie:
This means there are actually two 4 Ohm coils in there.
A single 2 Ohm coil at 5 volts would draw 12.5 watts at around 2.5 amps.

Two 4 Ohm coils in parallel (for a 2 Ohm dualie carto) still draws 12.5 watts (at around 2.5 amps with 5volts), but really you have each coil doing 6.25 watts.

Make sense now?
Two cooler running coils still produces massive plumes of vape because you have twice as much coil surface area touching liquid. Wicking issues that occurred when trying to chain vape single coil CE cartos at high voltages might be less prevelant with two coils and two wicks going at once?

Just a theory...I've never tried the dualie CE style.
I have enjoyed the SmokTech dual coils immensely! I don't use them with every liquid, or when I need a battery to go a long time between charges...but I must say that all the surface area of the dualies does a super job...especially with those sensitive liquids that you don't want 'hotter'...you just want MORE. Make sense?

I believe LEO was a Boge branded pen style battery? Yes, it has unique threads, but my understanding is that the atomizers and cartos for them are really similar to 801 gear in size/performance.

If I linked to LEO threaded ones....oops. I'm pretty sure you can find them in 510 threads as well. There are 510 > LEO adapters out there as well.

Sure I understand completely. My point is these are 1.5ohms. So if there are issues with a 3ohm CE2 @ 6v, there likely will be with these as well. Perhaps even more so since now one is depending on two wicks to stay wet.

BTW, I'm typing this while vaping two 4 ohm coils in parallel at 4.7v lol.
