standard ego 1000mAh with 2.4ohm?

[amouse]

hi guys,

sorry for noob question. I've been using the egoC and thinking to switch to clearomizer. which 1 should i get? i see there is like 1.8ohm, 2ohm, 2.4 and it goes higher. which 1 should i go for? my battery is not twist, just a regular which i think 3.7v

Personally I would choose the 1.8ohm.

 

[mcgatson]

Yep 1.8, I went from a 1.8 to a 2.4 and I'm ready to go back, 1.8 gave me a better hit.

Edit: I'm using an eGo basic 650mah

1.5 up to 2.00 would be the range. The egos really only pump out around that 3.7 on a full charge. I usually go 1.7 now they have 1.8 too.

Between the 1.8ohm, 2ohm & 2.4ohm, the lower the number the hotter the vape with more vapor, flavor and generally TH. Also the clearo life will be shorter. I use clearos on my eGo batteries. I find 1.8 ohms does not work well - too hot giving me dry burnt hits. I;ve found clearos are like that. I prefer 2 to 2.4 ohms.

I use 1.8ohm on my PV's that run 3.3v to 3.7v. I run 2.4ohm on VV mods at 3.7v to 4.3v. I run 3.0ohm at 4.3 to 4.8v and up but I don't go much higher.

Standard egos are 3.3-3.4 volts. You would be fine using 2.4 ohms, but will probably find a warmer vape from lower ohms. The LR will drain your battery faster though.

i guess im going with 1.8 ohm and not more than 2 ohm then.. Thanks for all the advise guys.

1.8 need about 3.7v
2.0 need about 4.0v
2.4 need about 4.3v

to get sweet spot

not to hijack this thread but I was wondering about this as well, running the twist with a 1.8 @ about 3.4/3.6 max go any higher i start getting the "burnt" taste

thanks for the replies

 

[Wa J]

This post definitely clarified what I was looking for. Thanks Guys!

I use 1.7 and 2 ohm with my ego's. I prefer the 2 ohm. Vaporwise there really isn't any difference that I've noticed between the two. The 1.7's only last me about 3 days but a 2 ohm carto lasts me a couple of weeks before I have to replace it.

2.0 need about 4.0v
2.4 need about 4.3v

Are those numbers just your preferences or are you saying that those numbers should be used by everyone?

Those are just preference numbers ... use whatever taste best to you.
Those numbers are pretty decent though when it comes to what the majority of people vape at.

That's why a vv mod is so useful. Alot of juices have their own sweet spot as well. I have a mild tobacco with a hint of wild cherry that only tastes good well below the voltage you would expect. 3.8 v with a 2.4 ohm coil in a clearo.

 

[huysus]

I think for most people the sweet spot is 8-9 watts of power. For a non-vv PV putting out 3.7v you need a LR atty to get into that range. Of course your voltage will drop as the battery discharges so your vape gets cooler.

 

[klynnn]

Actually 1.8 ohms works well at lower voltages like the basic ego. If you get into vv like the twist or spinner you will need the 2.4ohm or higher. I don't think that many vape over 5v after they have been at it for awhile and find what they like. Like everyone else I had to try it to find out.

 

[Kable]

I have a noob question as well. Just ordered my first mods, two with VV. The tank carts I got are rated at 1.5 ohm, and are dual coil. So I guess what I'm unsure about is whether having dual coils will factor into the voltage question or if following the elementary expressions of Ohm's law is enough, taking the 1.5 ohm rating as the equivalent load impedance. The reason I ask is because I heard someone say that dual coils makes calculating the requisite voltage more complicated.

 

[klynnn]

I never use dual coils. I find single coils are all you need.

Is there a noticeable difference in how it vapes? They came with the batteries I ordered, and I assumed it was mostly a marketing gimmick.
