I am trying to find the temperature inside an atomizer (in °C), and I can't find a straight answer. I am looking into DIY flavors (already diy flavorless liquid) and need to know that certain chemicals will not reach their decomposition point. Since 200°C-300°C seems to be a common
I have read some saying it can get up to 250°C, but, in empirical tests (with RBAs), I have seen and heard about 200°F-250°F, which would only be about 120°C. Then some posts I have found are unclear about whether their measurement is in C or F. Since 200°C-300°C seems to be a common auto-ignition/decomposition point, the difference could mean a lot, and if it is in the 200°C range, a lot of fruity flavors would be very prone to decomposition or even combustion and explosion (some of them are actually explosive).
To me, it seems like 200°C, and especially 300°C would be a massive heat output and seems far less likely than 120°C which is more in line with the flash point of PG, being between the flash and boiling point so that it produces vapor but not enough to instantly evaporate all of it from the coil/wick. (while 200°C is more in line with boiling point which I would think is not quite reached since the wicks stay saturated) and what I would imagine is possible for an atomizer.
Has anyone been able to find a solid range for atomizer temperatures? I am referring to the temperature of the coil, as it is in contact with a saturated wick. All I can find is contradictory answers, and I am not really informed when it comes to what these devices are capable of. I don't want to explode my mouth trying to vape a lavender flavor (not oils, I am aware of that).
Thanks a ton.
