Not sure, they're all in the same pile. You just gave me an idea to keep them separate

.6 stock coil could be cranked up to probably 20 plus watts...just go up slowly.

(just don't tell any of the old fogeys in here)

:p

Dang, that took a lot of words to say so little. I'm tired and think I've forgotten how to transfer thought to printed word.
At least, I'm not the only one. But, I don't even have to be tired. Or maybe it's just that I'm always tired.

    Here's the info. Using a CLR coil

    Definitely need more wattage for that coil. While it's kind of a loose rule of thumb I follow, I find that often a voltage closer to 3.5v to start and bump up from there is a good starting point. You are only pushing 2.42v through that coil, so you are not going to get much of anything.

    @VapeLuvr - on ANY coil, it's o.k. to start low. Work your way up (SLOWLY) until you get just a hint of "burnt". Back up a notch or two. You have now found your "sweet spot" for THAT coil. Not all coils vape the same - materials are different; wire gauge is different; toppers are different; juice is different. EACH ONE is unique, and you won't always use the same settings - I'm sure for similar coils, you'll be close.

    I build a 1Ω single coil out of kanthal or NiCr, and I'd probably run it around 15-20W. I build a 1Ω dual coil out of SS, and I can push almost 30W or more.

    Better to start lower than higher, I imagine. Thanks for the advice![emoji4]
