how low ohms can i go for vaping

Sub ohm vaping implies using a resistance lower than 1.0 Ohms on your mod, but mainly it refers to resistances ranging from 0.5 Ohms and below. These are capable of creating higher temperatures and allow for a bigger quantity of e-liquid to get evaporated, thus the massive clouds we all see.

Full Answer

What is it like to vape sub ohm?

Also vapers have discovered that by twisting two or more types of wire together they can create complex coils like 'twisted', 'claptons', 'fused claptons' and 'alien claptons' which in terms give an even better flavor. Sub ohm vaping can be very rewarding, but at the same time it has a few downsides.

What is Ohm’s law for vaping?

What is Ohm’s Law for Vaping? Ohm’s Law states that an electrical current is proportionate to the amount of voltage across it. The German physicist Georg Simon Ohm was the first person to verify this relationship.

What is the best Ohm Resistance for vaping nicotine?

A resistance of 0.4 ohms is ideal for vaping freebase nicotine at high temperatures to generate thick clouds. The lower the resistance, the hotter the coils, and the thicker the vapor. Is Higher Ohm Better for Vape?

What resistance should I use for mouth to lung vaping?

People who prefer mouth to lung vaping are usually the ones who use standard resistances (above the 1 Ohm limit) and those who prefer direct lung inhale use sub-ohm resistances (below the 1 Ohm limit).

What ohms are vaping safe?

But to ensure that you remain safe, build a bit higher; 0.12ohm would be better to ensure that you're vaping safely within the limits of your batteries and not stressing them. NOTE: A single coil with a resistance of at least 0.11ohm is safe for the build above.

What should 0.4 ohm be Vaped at?

23 - 28 wattFor example, a 0.4-ohm mod may recommend a 23 - 28 watt setting, and a 0.8-ohm mod may recommend you use up to 35 watts. Some recommendations can go much higher (e.g., 200 watts). Sub-ohm devices work best when using a high VG vape liquid (e.g., a VG/PG ratio of 70/30).

What wattage should I vape at 0.2 ohm?

0.2 ohm coils - 40 watts to 100 watts.

What is ohms too low on a vape?

“Short Atomizer” or “Don't Abuse Protects” Make sure your coil resistance isn't too low. Most SMOK products have a minimum resistance limit set at 0.1 ohms and going lower than that will lead to an error.

Whats better 0.2 or 0.4 ohm?

The lower resistance 0.2 ohm coils allow higher wattage to be used. This said, in this case, the 0.4 ohm coils give much better flavour with the Cleito tank than the 0.2 ohm coils.

What wattage should I vape at 0.27 ohm?

40-55WWattage range 40-55W.

What wattage should I vape at 0.23 ohm?

0.23ohm | Recommended Wattage: 20-45W. 0.6ohm | Recommended Wattage: 15-25W.

What watts should I vape at 0.25 ohms?

45-57W25 dual mesh coils 0.25Ω Ohm. Wattage range 45-57W.

What wattage should I vape at 0.5 ohm?

For example, a 0.5 ohm coil will vape best at 15 watts up to 50 watts. Another place you can look to find out the appropriate wattage range is on the coil itself.

What wattage should I vape at 0.3 ohm?

between 60 and 110 wattsThe lower resistance options (0.15 to 0.3 ohms) can generally go from anything ranging between 60 and 110 watts.

What ohm is best for flavor?

Coils With a Rating At 1.0 Ohm or Above Coils with at least 1.0 ohm resistance are designed for 'mouth-to-lung' vaping. They produce a subtle, cool vapour with intense flavour.

How many ohms should my vape coil be?

2.4-2.8 ohmsVape coils generally have an ohm range of 2.4-2.8 ohms, with lots of people enjoying a resistance of 2.5ohms. Low ohm vape coils produce more vapour and flavour and case use more e-liquid and take more battery power than high ohms. High ohm e-cig coils produce less vapour and use less e-liquid and battery.

What wattage is a 0.4 coil?

RPM Mesh 0.40Ω Coil, mesh resistance, for increased heating speed, will be ideal at 25 watts.

What juice is best for 0.4 ohm coil?

Coils of 0.4 ohm and lower The amount of VG will usually need to be anything from 50% VG, and in some cases the user's preference is 100% VG.

What wattage is best for RPM 0.4 coil?

25W0.4 ohm RPM Mesh Coils feature a honeycombed mesh design and are best for flavour-seeking vapers. Recommended Wattage: 25W.

What wattage should I vape 0.3 ohm?

between 60 and 110 wattsThe lower resistance options (0.15 to 0.3 ohms) can generally go from anything ranging between 60 and 110 watts.

What is Ohm’s Law for Vaping?

Ohm’s Law states that an electrical current is proportionate to the amount of voltage across it. The German physicist Georg Simon Ohm was the first person to verify this relationship. However, this definition can be hard to understand, which is why teachers and professors use the “ water pipe analogy ” when explaining this Law.

What is 0.4 ohms?

0.4 ohms is what is known as “ sub-ohm ” in the vaping community. A resistance of 0.4 ohms is ideal for vaping freebase nicotine at high temperatures to generate thick clouds. The lower the resistance, the hotter the coils, and the thicker the vapor.

How to calculate voltage?

For example, there is a current of four amperes traveling through a four ohm wire. Four amperes are multiplied by four ohms. The answer is 16 volts.

What happens if a vape explodes?

A vape that explodes next to someone’s face or in his or her hands could cause severe disfigurement. In one notable case, a Fort Worth native died when his vape exploded in his face.

How many amperes are running through a cord?

Four divided by two equals two, so the answer is two amperes are running through the cord.

What is needed to vaporize nicotine?

In a vape, there is an electrical current flowing from the battery to the coils that vaporize the nicotine. Therefore, proper coils (a big enough pipe) are needed to suit the flow of electrons from the battery.

What to do before buying an unregulated vape?

So before buying an unregulated vape, crack open an old high school physics book and do some reading. Doing it is well worth it.

Your mod has a parallel battery configuration, but is it mechanical or regulated? Can I ask what batteries you are using?

I've ran the math on my triple 18650 parallel box and it seems my amperage limit is about 60A combined (thats with 5amps removed from each battery) so I'm just wondering how low I can build before I'm being risky... I mostly build at .2 ohms, but the low resistance wire I just got takes an insane ammount of wraps to get there.

Samsung 25R, in a Bunker-Buster, high nickel content, not sure as to exact metallurgy specs in the wire, got it from a friend...

For my part I can see no point in making an object of the lowest possible ohms. Just find the sweet spot where it vapes best, wherever that is.

edyle ECF Guru Verified Member ECF Veteran

Yeah that would work better probably I'm just trying to come up with a framed build around .1 - .25ohms that will fit in my RDA... And since I'm out of work right now I don't have the budget to just go out and buy wire
