Hi all
Something @Gazzacpt said a while back on another thread has stuck in my mind.
He said with a high powered regulated mod you can just build a higher resistance coil (e.g. 1.5 ohm) and push as much power as you want through it. Versus with mech mods, we build our coils to give us the power we want.
So my question is - what would be the difference between vaping the following two setups?
A) Mech mod setup - 0.6 ohm coil - implying 29 Watts on a fresh battery
versus
B) Regulated mod setup - with a 1.5 ohm coil - and cranking it up to 29 Watts
I don't have a regulated mod that can go that high, so am wondering what the difference would be in the vape itself?
I know a lot has to do with the coil design, but it seems that if you are pushing the same power - the coil with the more wraps should give better flavour and vapour.
Then, checking ohms law, the two setups above, although having the same power, would have different voltages and currents, because the resistance is different
A) mech mod setup - Current = 7 amps, Voltage = 4.2 volts (lets ignore voltage drops)
B) regulated - Current = 4.4 amps, Voltage = 6.6 volts
Just looking at the above, I now would say that the 0.6 ohm coil would probably heat up faster since it likely has less mass. So would probably give a more instant vape.
What are your thoughts? Has anyone tried this and can anyone give some objective feedback?
