Should I or shouldn't I use a reg resistance dual-coil carto w/ my Ego-T regular batt??

These things sort of fall into the LR atty debate. I have some dual coil cartos that have ohmed out at 1.3ohms. While they will work on an eGo/Riva there is a risk if the MOSFET is weak. If you understand the risk and feel the reward is worth it then no issue. I know I ran Cisco LR306's on eGo batts for months without a problem but low resistance stuff can and has fried the circuitry on eGo/Riva batts. Check those dual coil cartos with a multimeter and see how really low they are. In the end the eGo/Riva batt is pretty cheap and if you do cook one no great loss. I would suggest if you do fry one do not put the carto that cooked it on another batt. Happy vapes

Roger and thanks :)

No problem. They are a nice carto and I run mine on a Darwin and a Provape-1. The Provari does not like them and shows and error. I have fired them with a eGo/Riva without any issue but I know the risk and am willing to give up a batt if need be. Enjoy the new Mod whichever one you buy and the ego/Riva is always a good tool to have in the gear box. I would hate to drop a $100 - $200 Mod in the lake while fishing. An ego always has a place in my gear bag

i hope that dual isn't $13.00 for one carto... seems like it from the add...?
Yeah I just got this dual coil and thinking I probably shouldn't use it with this 900 mAh eGo battery. He says not suitable for any MOSFET batt which I assume that one is too.

I'm about ready to move on to mods anyway...

Yeah I'm not going there at least anytime soon. Well, I'd like to try true higher voltage but I don't need some fancy box. I'm also able to fill/drip easily whenever (not driving a truck or what have you).

Yeah he threw it in for free actually with a juice order after I asked too late about adding to my order so idk...
