How fast should I vape?

If you have the option to set a time, I'd try something like 1 second. That should be fast enough that by the time you have it up to your mouth you'll already have a warm vape. It's one of those things you'll just need to play with to get dialed in to your preference.

How to get the temp higher on a wattage?

Hold down the button and the temp will climb in a linear fashion. On the right preheat. Note it jumps up really fast at the beginning (preheat) then continues to rise at the lower wattage setting you choose. You're just getting the temp higher, faster. Again, with a large amount of metal to heat it's handy.

Do coils need to be heated?

Generally for simple coils that heat up quickly there isn't much need. For builds with large mass, a lot of metal, a high preheat gets that larger mass up to temp and then the "lower" wattage/temp control takes over to keep it heated up.

Can you use high preheat on a dual Clapton?

In temp control (never used in wattage mode but as I said, same principle) I only use a high preheat for something like a dual Clapton something build that needs that punch at the start of the vape. Others might do different.

Do you need a high preheat for vaping?

Generally for simple coils that heat up quickly there isn't much need. For builds with large mass, a lot of metal, a high preheat gets that larger mass up to temp and then the "lower" wattage/temp control takes over to keep it heated up.

What is a preheating welding?

In welding, Preheating involves heating the base metal surrounding the weld joint, to a specific desired temperature, called the preheat temperature, prior to welding. Heating may be continued during the welding process, but frequently the heat from welding is sufficient to maintain the desired temperature without a continuation ...

What is preheat maintenance?

Normally a preheat maintenance i.e. preheat throughout the welding is required for more exotic materials such as Cr-Mo steels, HSLA steels, etc. The interpass temperature, defined as the base metal temperature between the first and last welding passes, cannot fall below the preheat temperature. Interpass temperature will not be discussed further ...

Why do we preheat steel?

Additionally, preheat can be used to help ensure specific mechanical properties, such as notch toughness.

How thick is a preheat for welding?

When there are no codes governing the welding, one must determine whether preheat is required, and if so, what preheat temperature will be appropriate. In general, preheat usually is not required on low carbon steels less than 1 in, (25 mm) thick. However, as the chemistry, diffusible hydrogen level of the weld metal, restraint or section thickness increases, the demand for preheating also increases. There are several methods to determine the required preheat temperature for a given base metal and section thickness that will be discussed in the next section.
