What Ohm cartomiser for my battery?

[dj9928]

I use 1100mah mega ego batteries, that resistance cartomiser should I use? I bought a 1.5 puff tank, it was ok, bought a 2.0 and not so good, but I notice these go down to 1.2 ohm would these be better?

I find with ego batteries, 1.7 is good. Too low may ruin your battery, kill your battery sooner, burn the heck out of your juice.

Just know that low resistance cartomizers will reduce battery life dramatically. Some say by 1/2.

You may want a higher voltage pv if the standard ego isn't doing it for you.

This thread will give you a general idea of which resistance.

I bought a SmokTech EMDCC LR (1.7ohm) and I don't think I'll be using it much any more on my eGo-T 650mAh, my battery isn't powerful enough, just kind of bought it on a knee-jerk reaction. The dual coil lowers the wattage to the absolute low end.

With a 1.7 ohm carto, at the 3.4v that eGos output, you get above 7.7 watts, which is quite a bit. Going any lower with ohms I think could be bad for some of the components.

Currently I'm using an Askton Hughes MK-I Carto that is the standard 2.8ohm, and its giving me great vapor production and throat hit, but it seems to also be on the lower side of 4Watts.

From the chart above, looks like around the 2 ohm area is desirable.

I assume you are trying to use a DCC in your Puff tank. Well IMO there isn't a dual coil carto made that works well on a 3.4v eGo battery. Just look at the numbers: a 1.5ohm DCC has two 3ohm coils in it. A 3ohm coil at 3.4v will only be 3.85watts
Get any one of the 45mm long LR single coil cartos to put in your tank, and it will vape circles around what you are getting from a dual coil.

Agree with the above post. From what I have tried and seen, there aren't any DCCs out there that perform well with the eGo battery. I personally like the Stardust cartomizers that you can get from GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more . That's all I use on my eGo battery. They are pretty much a CE2 done correctly.

Those two 3Ω coils are wired in parallel resulting in 1.5Ω (that's why they're called 1.5Ω cartos!) seen by the batt. At 3.4V and 1.5Ω, ya get 7.7 Watts at 2.27 Amps!
