Is the information I am locating old or am I crazy?
The thing I see repeated mostly is go low resistance to get more heat....Low resistance heats up faster giving a better hit...However, in my limited experience with my kayfun on DNA 30 clone I am seeing thicker wire or smaller coils or dual coils or however you want to go about getting to 1.5 ohm or lower taking longer to glow when tweaking the final coil before wicking and completing the build. Slow enough to perceive clearly with the naked eye. In real world usage this means a slower hit, longer draws, etc. As of late, I have been building and pushing higher resistance and the results have been, well, fantastic. Currently running 2ohm ~ 30w/7.7v, 8mg nic and it seems way more hardcore than any of the 1ohm or less builds.
My thoughts/experience says this:
Mathematically speaking it makes sense because in the end, despite all the other info out there, volts are king. I've been at this a long time just not an active member. I read the information, placed the orders, find something that works and use it for a couple years. I started out like everyone else on the throw aways and cigalikes, as a proof of concept, had the same thought everyone else did that these would work to get off tobacco if they were better. The first real setup was the silver bullet, but to quit, it was HV vaping with stacked batteries in that device that did the trick. Volts were king.
I completely understand the LR movement and sub-ohming for mech mods and people who didn't want to stack batteries. But now with all these regulated mods why is the belief that LR and watts are "Still king" when in reality they never were it has always been about the volts? Is it just a mass of the uninformed and or am I plain out wrong?
Even in rip trippers video about wicking high VG content in RTAs he starts out stating "on a hardcore build" (1.8ohm ~ 27w). Well what makes that hardcore when most of his device reviews show many shots of him vaping 25w-100w? The answer is the Volts.
I understand not everyone wants the heat. And that is probably what I am referring to when I talk about hardcore but I have helped many people quit smoking with e-cigs, even people who have tried them before and the difference has always come down to the volts. Even for people with VW or VV mods. They only seem to be satisfied with the performance when the volts are 6+.
So I guess the point of this was a question asking is everyone else seeing the same thing regarding resistance of coil in high powered REGULATED devices? Am I just reading in the wrong sections? I just see a lot of people recommending LR builds, even sub-ohm builds to people who think they want more vapor to help quit smoking but the reality is they probably want more heat and just don't realize it. There is a difference between producing more vapor and trying to quit tobacco...
Sorry for the above mess. Not really sure how to write what I am trying to say and ask in the same post so it just rambled/ranted.
