vaping voltage and ohms

[AndyGrant]

hi, i have 2.20 ohms coils, they work fine upto 900mah, then when tried on 1300mah and over they burn out on 1st vape after good soaking to, the ohms need addressing or i have faulty coils? thanks

Hi Andy and welcome to ECF.

The difference in mAh does not affect the vape itself. The more mAh your battery has, the longer it will last before you have to recharge it.

What will affect the coils is battery voltage (or wattage). Take that too high and it will burn the juice and the vape will taste terrible. Is this what is happening? If so, turn down the voltage.

Coils also eventually need to be cleaned or replaced.

Hope this helps

The mah has nothing to do with the battery voltage. What kind of batteries are these. Are they ego batteries? Do the have variable votage?

well the mAh do have a bit to do with it.... especially in eGo VV type batteries... the bigger batteries (1100/1300) also have better amp ratings which allow more current to flow thus allowing for a coil burnout....

Also, not all ego batteries are the same voltage. Some are regulated to 3.4v, some are regulated at 3.7v, and some are unregulated voltage.

True battery sag, gotta account for that ....and who knows how old it is or if the buck boost is working right ........are they taking a full charge ?

I'd agree with the above posters:
Battery sag, and amp ratings may be effecting your vape.
What is the make & model of your eGos and where did you get them? Output voltage would have more to do with it IMO. a 2.2ohm coil at 3.7v will be pulling 1.7 amps.
I haven't heard many getting dry hits with the 2.2 ohm coils.. What tank are you using?

Andy, is there a dial on the bottom with numbers ?
