I just recieved my order of 10 Dual coil cartos from Drew. Using them on the Darwin:

1) First these things are thirsty little beasts. Initial fill took 50 drops of 80pg/20vg juice. Vaped about 10 pulls and filled with another 8 drops!
2) This is a very low resistance carto. While it states 1.5, the two I have tried ohmed out at 1.3. Checked on the Darwin, Provari and Multimeter. I would not reccomend using these on a eGo/Riva batt. If you do you are asking for trouble. They are best suited for a true 3.7V Mod of a VV/VW unit like the Darwin
3) At 8.4 watts the Darwin is hitting the carto w/3.4V. Any setting below 8W and the voltage bottoms out at 3.3v. So even dialing down to 4.2W you will still get 3.3V or 8W to the coils no matter what the wattage reading on the Darwin. This is normal since 3.3 for the batt is min voltage.
4) The cartos hit nice. A little stiffer draw than a standard Boge LR 2.0 but not much. Flavor is there and vapor is big.
5) Sweetspot for me seems to be around 9 - 9.2watts on these.
6) Life remains to be seen. I usually get about 20 - 30mls through a carto before it goes to the carto netherworld.
7) If life expectancy is similar to other cartos I will buy them again

Wow L2S, our vaping similarities just scare me sometimes! I run these at 9.2W steadily.

Agree with everything. But my sweet spot seems to be 5.5w. I've never even had mine as high as you have it. My highest has been 7.5w, and I don't have any desire to go higher. But it seems (to me) the best flavor production is at 5.5w. But that probably has more to do with the juice- I'm using Mad Hatter Smooth which tends to give best flavor at lower watts. With normal Boge 510 cartos, I run it at 7w.

N2 look at the readout and point #3 of my post. Once dialed below 8W the Darwin bottoms out on voltage for these cartos and will deliver 3.3V no matter what is dialed in. So effectively once you bottom out at 3.3V you are vaping at around 8Watts. Check it it you will see exactly what I am saying. The voltage will not change even if dialed to 4.2W. Enjoy and happy vapes man

I did not ever check that. Hmmm. Mine bottoms out at 3.5v- making it 8.8v! That explains why the outside of the carto gets so damn hot! Also explains why my Darwin's battery is dying faster than usual.
