using the right atomizers

[SysEx]

Currently I am using Joye510 and eGo batts. I have a Precise 18650 on pre-order that I'd like to use at both 3.7v and 6v.

I don't know too much about all the relationships between volts and wattage between batteries and atomizers, just a slight understanding.

I have a variety of atomizers that are 510 and perform greatly different than each other. It seems like if I purchase a Gen. Joye/Janty/DURA/SLB they are all inconsistent. ie: some produce great TH and vapor, while others may produce only one really well as opposed to another.

ie: I bought a 5-pack of SLB 510's that ohm out at "3 - 3.5ohm", they produce good vapor on my joye/eGo batts but zero TH hit and the draw is cool. (I'm guessing these will perform on a higher volt mod?)

I guess I'd like to know what atomizers work best with the devices I have (and will have) so I can get the best use out of my hardware. Or at least understand how atty's that ohm out at ?? will work with ??-Battery. Hope that makes sense.

Also, with the same atomizers, will I noticed a big difference between my eGo and a true 3.7 device?


Thanks in advance for any help.

The relationship of volts(batteries) and wattage(resultant current) depends on ohms(resistance of the atomizers).

To get to a particular 'sweet spot' in wattage (ie. best vapor) you can manipulate the voltage and ohms by having different batteries and atomizers. And you can get the same wattage via different means. Simplistically:

If you want to get to 10 (randomly selected number for example only) you can add 3+7, 4+6, 5+5. In the same way if you can find the right ohms on an atomizer you can get the same wattage from a 3.2, 3.7, 5 or 6 volt battery.

The 'regular 510 atty' is around 2.1 to 2.3 ohms so, you're right - these higher ohm attys would be better with say a 5 volt mod. You might need even higher for 6 volts.

Makes perfect sense. If you look at scubabatdan's math in the above link and then take a look at mine, you'll get the idea. Dan likes 6.5W as a sweet spot. Some would go a bit higher - perhaps 8W but getting above 10 and you are really risking burning out atomizers and flavor with little improvement in vapor.

Also, with the same atomizers, will I noticed a big difference between my eGo and a true 3.7 device?

All depends how you would define 'big'. I'll say it is a noted difference in vapor and with strong flavors, in flavor too, in my experience but when it comes to flavor stuff, ymmv, of course. But there will be more vapor.

Ohm's Law can be stated in various ways. For this purpose, I prefer the streamlined:

Watts (i.e., power) = Volts X Volts / Ohms (i.e., resistance)​

A standard 2.2 ohm Joye 510 atomizer on a 3.2V eGO: 3.2 X 3.2 / 2.2 = 4.7 watts. Not very impressive. [What is impressive is how much vapor the Joye 510 atty can generate from the wimpy 510 or eGO battery.]

A 1.5 ohm LR 510 atomizer on the same eGO: 6.8 watts. Much better; and good for Scubabatdan.

A standard 2.2 ohm Joye 510 atty on a true 3.7V battery (e.g., the Kr8, 14500, or 18650): 6.2 watts. Also pretty good. And since a true 3.7V battery starts out at 4.2V fully charged, the first several puffs will be 8 watts: into what is more widely regarded as "sweet spot" zone. [The higher the mAh of the battery, the longer the vape will be at or near 8 watts.]

And a 1.5 ohm LR 510 atomizer on a true 3.7V batt: 9 watts (starting at close to 12 watts).

Since 12 watts is too intense for me (I prefer 7-9 watts), I like to use my regular atomizers (mainly 801 in my case) on a true 3.7V battery (e.g., the 14500 in my ProVape-1) and my LR attys on the DSE905 (which throttles the voltage of its 14500 battery to a maximum 3.7V).

BTW, I do not think that the Precise is intended to be used with stacked 3.0V batteries (to get that 6V you mentioned). Much safer to use an LR atomizer with the intended 18650 battery. And you may be very satisfied with a standard atomizer on it. The high mAh of the 18650 is going to keep the vape at or near 8 watts for quite some time. A much more intense experience than the eGO.
