They do drain batts fast. My GLV2 lasts about 12hrs with 3ohm single coil and 6hrs with 1.5 ohm dual. Does triple mean it will only last 3hrs??

They're probably using three of the high ohm coils which would work out to about 1.6 ohm. That should mean your battery will last about the same. The increased surface area should provide more vapor, so in theory it could mean shorter drags and increased battery life. I'm planning on fixing my PT and trying them on it--should be a fog machine lol.

Thats what I think they will do.

Taking some of the bigger, 2.5 or 3.5 ml cartos and put 3 of the high ohm coils in them.

Then you´ll get a 1.6 or 1.7 Ohm carto. It should have a stronger, fuller taste, because the juice will not be heated up so much.

This difinitly will make these 3coil cartos to the high volt paradise. Not only tonns of Vapor and kicking TH, but conserving a good taste, where at HV the atos/cartos used to fail a bit.

Cannt wait to get some.

The triple coil has the resistance 1.6ohm. It consists of 3 coils with the same resistance of 5ohm and the 3 coils are parallel connected.

Currently, they have the stainless steel triple coil cartomizers only and is the same size as the dual coil cartomizers, the only difference is the inter structures.

So you would have 3 - 5 ohm coils in parallel = 1.6 ohms total so 5 volts across 1.6 ohms = 15.6 watts divided by 3 = 5.2 watts per coil COLD IMO . Most people like flavor on a single coil at 7-9 watts ( this is the heat produced hence the flavor and TH ) you will have 3 -5 watt coils in this design .

the Power is divided between each coil , in this case each coil will have a cold temperature on it ( Ni-chrome wire or heater wires get hot depending on the power applied to them )

Since the 1.6 ohm dual coil performs so admirably at 5.0v already and 6.0v is getting to the top of its useful range (somewhat juice dependent, but it's relatively easy to scorch juice with them at 6.0), and since you are absolutely correct with the above statement (3 coils at 5 watts each), I really don't think 5.0v vapers are their target audience.

At 6.0v, there will be three 7.5 watt coils. That's nicely in that 7-9 range you mentioned... and freshly charged batts will have those coils just a bit over the top of that range, around 9 1/2.

That actually sounds like someone put some thought in to it. They start out on the hot side of what it seems most people prefer and as the batts drain, they run right in the middle of what people seem to prefer, and then are somewhere right close to the bottom of the range people seem to prefer when the batts are drained.

I know you can't comment too much here, but it sure seems like the guys at smoke tech are making you VV manufacturers think more than you've had to before and they're keeping you on your toes.

3 coils I think will be a disaster. I like my dual coils but the problem is the filler. They space the coils away too far from each other and you get lots of airy/filler taste. 3 coils will make this much worse. Make a dual coil that's half the size with half the filler and you've got better taste. If they made the triple coils the same size as the duals and put them close together then it might be worth something as long as they don't add filler.

Cartos are just a bad design idea to begin with because you have to hope your liquid travels from the thick outer filler to the inner center coil to work. There is nothing to wick this juice in the direction of the coil like in a regular cartridge. The more empty the carto gets the more airy filler taste because you are trying to suck the juice through all that air space. Bad bad design. Cartos only save your .... cus they hold more liquid.

Here's a novel idea. Just make a larger cartridge. DOH! Better design cus your sucking power still draws the juice to the coil at the end.

Or.. it's Only a battery terminal connection - make 2 that connects to the main connection on your battery like a Y connector, and just use two cartridges (or two single cartos/whatever). Make another Y piece that connects the two cartridges into one mouth piece. Poof, instant better dual cartridge that holds more and is a way better hitter than cartos. No one will mistake that for a cigarette. I have just given you the next multi billion dollar e-cig idea, cus I'm a nice guy like that. Go out and make a billion dollars. Call it The Phoenix Y Mod. Heck, I might actually make this myself!

Don't agree with this comment. The dual coil cartridge has no wicking problem, but many atos have.

If they put a third coil in the space where they did put two before, they will be closer to each other, so following your statement, it wouldn´t make it worse, but better.

They are not airy to me, for my proper likes, they are somewhat tight, and putting a third coil in it, I´m afraid they will get even tighter.

If the diameter would be more, and so more filler, I think it would even make the movement from the liquid to the center chanel, more consistent, because there would be more buffer space.

In a way, the whole center chanel, is not only a place the air flows by, but also a big surface where the liquid is evaporated.

Thats what makes the DC, and Boge so outstanding, possibly better then most of the attys around, because many of them do have wicking problems.

Others may think different about this. I do not have any technical knowledge. Its just my opinion.

You still run into LARGE current draws on a 1.6 ohm carto , 1.6 ohms at 6 volts = 3.75 AMPS @ 22.5 watts !! this is WAY out of the safe operating area for 95 % of Li-IOn batteries except for Aw types

You risk the battery failing and over heating then out gassing ,this is a worst case situation for a battery !!!

This puts us right back where we were 6 months ago with Mods and un-protected batteries !

Ya we are thinking , we are thinking this is NOT SAFE !

BTW LOWER CURRENT DRAW = longer charge life + safer operating area + longer battery life + +
BTW 2 - Lower OHMS = HIGHER current draw + lower charge life + lower battery life + Potential battery failure.

BTW 3 , just because it is COOL ( like smoking used to be for many of us ) does not make it the right thing to do

I can’t speak as to what most others prefer but my preference would be and is regulated vv in which I can adjust to my personal sweet spot no matter what ohm or juice combo I’m using and it stay consistent from the first vape until it’s time to charge.
IMO the VV manufacturers can rest their toes a little. I’ll personally never go back.
