This kind of e-liquid consumption...

I can't burn a coil with 9W it won't even get Hot.
Try building a .5Ω coil with 30ga or higher ss316l. You'll see that your normal settings for the .5Ω coils you use are way too high.

In fact, a 1Ω coil using the same wire requires more power. Coil mass.

@KenD nothing personal but I disagree with this and I actually don't want to debate you on it. Right now I am firing a .15Ω at 35W and pounding down the e-Liquid at about an ML an hour. But when I switch to another MOD this one uses NONE at all.
Check steam-engine. It'll give you the numbers.

Look at the numbers for heat flux.

I really don't care buddy! The only thing I am saying is that the more you vape the e-Liquid you use. Please find someone else who would like to debate this with you.
Then don't start a debate. I care about the correct information. But I've said what I had to say and proven my point. On with the scheduled programming.

Hey. I'm on a Kayfun lite plus V2 using a .8 ohm coil at 7.5-10 watts.

To use 3.5 ml a day at that resistance and power level is rippinv it.

Earlier smoking habits don't really correspond to the nic amount and liquid consumed. It's not necessarily the nicotine that was the addictive part for some individuals, and the nic from vaping is absorbed differently. For my own part I could pretty much go to 0 nic, but I like some throat hit (and I'd anyway include some nic due to the potential health effects).

If you want throat hit raise the PG RATIO.

I'm the same, and I've raised PG ratios to the point where my liquid was so serous, it'd seep right through coils and flood them. I do believe it's the oxidation process of nicotine in e-liquid that causes that lovely throat hit that, while PG may deliver something similar, it just isn't the same.

I consider that to be too much, but who knows, personally I don't have time to vape that much.... actually I thought I vaped a lot, since I do take quite a few smoke breaks, and do it pretty much constantly on the ride to work or at home in front of my gaming rig, but I only go through about 5-6mg's.

I go by what farsalinos says, the "95% safer" thing is tootle puffing only, not direct lung or restricted lung like how a lot of people end up vaping (including me) and not at high quantities. Imo, if anything is found to be harmful, it's most likely going to be in the flavorings, I love a tasty juice as much as the next guy but most commercial juices are loaded with sucralose, various other chemicals and any that use FW's flavorings have high fructose corn syrup and other sugars that are known to cause toxins and carcinogens.

Point is, if you're worried about all that crap, just don't vape, it's easy enough to quit... if not, at least it's probably less harmful than smoking.

Well, you could wrap a .5 ohm coil with 30ga ss316l (1.5mm id, 4/5 wraps) that would be too hot at 9w and quite hot at 8w. Not saying that many would, but it highlights the fact that power and surface area is what we should be focusing on, not resistance. It annoys me when people talk about subohming without mentioning the other (more relevant) variables, and it may confuse new vapers by not giving them the relevant information.

Well there you have a high resistance coil on a 0.5 ohm coil that's cheating' ;)

Who vapes a 30 gauge 1.5 mm diameter coil at 5 wraps? Not a reasonable example to me. Most are using 26 gauge or smaller with larger diameter and high power for a .5 ohm coil.
