Why should you not Mtl with sub ohm

[angie124]

I understand about the airflow. But is it to do with the amount of time drawing as well. Would a sub ohm get too hot ?

I draw 5 seconds on a mini nautilus (Mtl) and the same 5 seconds on a cleito (dl)
I was told mtl on a cleito would make it leak. So whether the vape is going in your mouth or straight to lung how would it effect the coil? Don't understand anyone help

I think you're right on point. Sub ohm coils get real hot real quick. the airflow around them keeps them from getting too hot. In your example, a mouth holds less air than lungs. with less air cooling the coils in a mtl hit, the coil can get hotter. with a DL hit, lots of airflow cools the coil to prevent it from overheating. Subohm coils get hotter because they were designed to vaporize more liquid at once to fill the lungs, and mtls dont need to vaporize as much liquid to fill the mouth with vapor. hope this helps some.

Thanks for the reply
I'm new to sub ohm. So not quite sure of technique.
Should you draw a lot quicker and shorter on the cleito than say on my nautilus I would take long slow draws

I only MTL and use coils anywhere from 0.2-1.8ohms.

Vaping right now at 50w/0.25ohms. Gets a bit hot, but nothing too bad.

Here's another MTL sub ohmer.

Kayfun lite plus V2, and sub ohming at .79 ohms.

I'm a MTL, single coil guy myself. I think temp control is the way to go. While technically it is "sub ohm" the ability to adjust temperature and wattage to suit your preferred draw makes it the best solution IMO. It can be as cool or warm as you like and the wattage really just controls the ramp up time.

I think when you say sub ohm, you really mean high wattage/power, and yes, you'll want to take shorter, but faster/bigger draws. A long slow draw could lead to leaking because you won't be pulling the vapor off as fast, letting the wick get over saturated.
