Triton VV replacement coils

[Zombo]

I have had my Triton VV for a couple of months now. When I first ordered it, I noticed Halo recommended the 3.0-3.2 Ohms coils. Unfortunately, they were out of stock so I kept using the stock coils (2.2-2.4) and it worked fine. Weeks later, they were still OOS, so I ordered the 2.6-2.8s. They worked great.

I finally got a hold of the 3.0-3.2s, and TBH, I'm extremely disappointed. All they seem to do is require me to crank my VV to just about max, while giving me muted flavor and a much smaller cloud. Granted, it could be that the first one I tried is faulty, but I don't think so...it doesn't appear to have anything wrong with it.

I'm curious about other people's experience with these coils, because IMO, you should stay away from them and just use the 2.6-2.8s (or even the stock 2.2-2.4s).

I've only used the 2.2-2.4 but I'd be interested in hearing what the difference to the 2.6-2.8 was for you? Sorry I can't answer your question but I appreciate you bringing up the topic.

Those are higher resistance coils. They take more power to heat up and burn the liquid. They recommend them so people don't crank up a low resistance and burn it up. You don't have to use them, maybe get a slightly higher one then your originals so you can have my play with it. 3.3v with a 3.0-3.2 coil would taste like air. But 4.8v with a 2.0 coil would taste burnt at maybe 4.0v or less.

For me the difference was this...I tend to like Tribeca cooking from 3.8 to 4.3 depending on mood. With the 2.6-2.8s, I was able to experience that full range with no problem. With the 2.2-2.4s, I would get a slight burn taste as I neared 4.3. Tastes are subjective, of course, but that was my experience.

I've only used the standard 2.2 coils with my VV; I don't think anyone needs the 2.6 or 3.2, unless they're into some delicate coffee or chocolate flavors.

The standard coils give you enough range, so unless you're getting a VV specifically to get a cooler vape, you can stick to the standard coils.

I agree with BigBen. I usually do.

Standard coils for my VV. Even Belgian is easily controlled. I can go from air, through the optimum, to burnt.

OK, Belgian is within range, but just slight adjustment changes everything. Same with VooDoo.

I'll guess the thicker darker sweeter flavors benefit most from the VarVolt. The other juices seem much more tolerant.

He may be right... but I definitely wanted to cool down the cafe mocha.. and just using the high resistance coils wasn't enough... now I use the high resistance coils with the variable voltage and couldn't be happier with it.

Coffee, chocolate... There it is!

I like Belgian on a standard coil, at 3.8v or below. It burns at 4.3.

Same here, I like my belgian and coffees at around 3.8 myself (2.2 ohm standard coils- in fact I've started rebuilding my coils for other things (dripper, sucktanks) at 2.2 for this reason.)

I do like my tobaccos higher though.Between 3.8-4.3 seems the sweet spot on those... or about 9 watts if I dust off the old Vamo. Poor thing, it gets about as much love as our Roomba does now that we have a few dysons in the house!

i only use my Roomba to intimidate my dogs...but they're starting to catch on.

 

[Fenris4024]

Hahahah! yup. One of our cats is TERRIFIED of the Roomba and the full sized Dyson, the other simply could care less. He's pretty chill though.

 

[wheezal]

my gurl dog; Daisy, is afraid of her own shadow. she hides underneath my sofa when i watch an action movie too loud. The Roomba is like a giant anime-tentacle monster to her i figure.

The boy dog; Jazz, is fearless...probably to the point of stupidity. During 4th of July he'll try to chase down exploding fireworks on the ground, burn his mouth, then continue trying to chase them down. So the Roomba is barely a nuisance to him.


But Daisy is the alpha of the two and keeps Jazz from going off half-cocked or running away altogether.

hehehhe, maybe Jazz is smarter than you think.. he knows not to make the girls angry at him... something I learned a while back (Finally)

hrmmm...that would make him smarter than me.

But you still get girls names mixed up, that's bad

i can tell you from experience, it most certainly is.

Luckily for me, it was on the forums, and I plead late night stupidity

Tapped out on a phone... I think

That's why you only go after girls with the same name.
I chase down the Jessica's. That way even if you call her the name of you're ex you're still right.
Although it doesn't help if you are calling/texting the wrong one
