With my meter and switching the exact same AW IMR the Grand and Woodvil checked exactly the same both under load and without load.

I made a thread about it a while back with pics of the meter.

I found it odd because the woodvil sure "feels" harder hitting.

Let me see if I can do a more in depth test with pics and post them today.

I've continued to experiment with different Cartos, and I'm going to go ahead and say I'm really not a fan of dual coils. Where some people say they like the nice "warm" vapor, the draw is so tight that you really have to pull so long, the carto has no choice but to heat up, then stay hot for like 5-7 minutes after you're done vaping.

CCV's Resurrectors & Boge LR cartos both do really well, and the only thing that shifts me into the direction of the Boge is that they're smaller, and don't look as long on the REO. I like them both, but the extra capacity of the mega resurrector is completely unnecessary on a bottom fed box mod.

Thanks Tim,
Hope you made out OK with the storm yesterday. I'm in Albany and we retained power and the basement had no flooding. Schoharie creek though and the Stockade in Schenectady are in for some serious trouble as the Mohawk and and Schoharie Creek will far exceed flooding stage.I guess the Catskills got hit really hard. Water flow over the Gilboa dam was 7 feet high.

I agree on the dual coils ... bought 15 and wound up giving the last 8 away.

The draw is way way too stiff.

Thought I would throw my thoughts in here on Boge 3Ω at 6v -vs- Boge 2Ω at 3.7v

3Ω at 6v is much warmer and thicker and I'm really enjoying it this time around. I've tried before and hated it so not sure if my tastes have changed or what. Got two flavors going with them. Boba's and Taboo which are both tobacco of sorts. Not sure if a fruit or dessert flavor would do well in them or not.

One thing I have found strange is the 6v/3Ω take a day to get going at their best IMO....
Exactly the opposite with 4v/2Ω for me they taste great right out of the gate and can suck by the end of day 1

I'm pretty sure I will get much more life out of the 3Ω/6v because they just keep on tasting great to me.
I think its going to come down to when the draw stiffens up. Never made it that far with the 2Ω before.

Anyway its been my vape of choice for the last 4 days now. Who know what next week will bring though.

Totally agree about the draw from the Dual Coils. But, I do like the Resurrectors due to the extra heat and kick that it gives you compared to the 2.0 boge's. Although, I haven't tried the 1.8's yet.

Another one I wanna try right now would be the 1.7 xl single coils from IKV.

I personally find they don't last as long as the Boge's
Anyone else mirror that observation, or is it just me?

From my experience with the resurrectors. They last just as long or longer than the Boge's. Still have one going strong after 3 weeks. Itching to dissect it at this point with a hacksaw ready in my hand LOL

How many ml per day do you think you run through them? I find mine give out after about 20-25 mls on the taste side. I could go longer if draw was the only concern.

What do you mean killed it? Did it not fire? Was it dead? I use only 100% VG and all sweet juices and have not had that problem at all.

Have been using the Boge and just ordered 15 of the resurrectors so I guess we will see which we like best! Love the Boge but I can kill one really fast with my sweet flavors. I have killed one in about 6 hours! Can't wait to try the others!
