but r1+r2 is a series connection.

T

then i guess i don't get the circuit for all 4.

do you mean 2 in parallel to make an effective r1, and another 2 in par to make r2, then "r1" and "r2" then in series? if so, then, yeh- it's 3.0...

i can't do jack w/o a schematic :)

How about this, everyone . . .. . 2 coils result in 1/2 the resistance. 3 coils result in 1/3 x Ω. 4 coils result in 1/4 x Ω. (I'm starting to see a pattern there.)


There are no setups with coils in series, unless you're vaping two devices at once. In series, each coil is an individual function, and has it's own resistance.

i actually was an engineer once, before embarking on a far more satisfying career as a wastrel

Not sure about the drip tip, but this looks like the RBA: $4.77 RDA Mini Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer (1.0mL) - 2.4
Right on the money.
$5.40 RDA Mini Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer (1.2mL) - purple / 1.0

I don't know why, but I can't see j's pics in the initial post. I want to see the unicorns too...:(
Hm, weird. I posted them the same way I've always posted pics. Let's see what I can do about it.

That makes sense. I was also using the wrong formula to calculate the net ohms of 4 coils.

I can see them now. Don't know why I couldn't before. I bought a 5 pack of those cheapie drippers and turned some into bottom feeders. They work great but I've had two of them have a post fall out when tightening the screws. The posts are press fit with a tiny bit of solder to hold them in.

Glad you can see them now :D

The ones I'm anxiously waiting for is 5 YK1 KTS. So far that purple mini RDA does fine, the igo-s does better.

Getting ready to mix some 100% PG Banana juice tomorrow. Don't ask why, it's been a long time since I've vaped anything higher in PG than 50/50. I do remember vaping 100% pg and while vapor production was not that good God the flavor was out of this world. I can only imagine how damn good it should be in the RM2 (or so I hope :lol:)

lmao series or parallel Ω talk takes me back to my young south florida car show/car audio days discussing car sub's/amps.

Were vaping here not talking audio;)

series, parallel, bridged, unbridged.
...blah blah blah....

wait'll you're my age, ya little punk!

this is what i have, instead of...

:)
