How to know the Resistance that is OHM of my Coil ?

[djlaksh]

Hello friends,

I would like to know how can i get an idea oh how many OHMS my coil is of ?

Coz when i wanted to place an order on fasttech, i got same TS3 coils of different Ohms.. No i am confused which to order ?

And can anyone tell me whats the difference betweet all these different Resistance Power ?


Thank You

What does your old coil say on it ? It should say on your coil.

The amount of resistance helps determine how much power, in watts, will be produced when you vape. Watts=(volts*volts)/ohms. You can test these by buying an ohm meter or even using a multimeter. I get a general idea normally from my Innokin MVP 2.0 because it will display it, as many others will. The only problem is this only measures to a tenth of an ohm. I like higher accuracy to the hundredth which is near necessary when building sub ohm coils.

I don't think so that anything is written on it ?

but still i will try to open and clean and then check on it, whether it is written or not for sure..

So if i have 1.8 Ohm, so is it possible for me to buy 2.5 Ohm resistance power coil ? or should i go with 1.8 only ?

IMO, 2.5 ohms is a bit high resistance for most mods. I normally stay with 2.0 or lower. What mod are you using? Do you have VV/VW capabilities? It all depends on the voltage passing through as to what resistance you want. Then you can match up to your personal preference. On a 2.0 ohm(actually reads at 1.9), I normally set at about 4.7V for my all-day vape.

If they are real Kanger coils - not copies - it will be there, but you need a magnifying glass to read it.

If will be stamped into the bottom of the coil, on the smooth metal cylinder part, right above the center post insulator. You may need to rotate it back and forth a bit until you can catch it under the light.

As far as what to get? If you have a variable voltage setup get the 2.5 ohm coils. My opinion: The 1.8 ohm Kanger coils can be too hot even at the lowest voltage you have available. At least with the 2.5 ohm you have enough room to adjust your voltage up - or down - as needed. With a 1.8 ohm coil you some times can't set the voltage as low as you may want to.

Yes, the 2.5 ohm coils will work, but perhaps not as well as the 1.8 ohms (it depends on the battery you are using). You can certainly try them and see how they work for you, it won't break anything!

(Edit)
For a particular voltage, a 1.8 ohm coil will give HIGHER power than a 2.5 ohm coil.

Yes, if you have a variable wattage device, anything from 1.8-2.5Ω will work, as you'll be able to adjust the voltage of your battery as needed. If you have a set-voltage eGo-style battery (which may be either regulated 3.3v or unregulated 3.7v); 1.8Ω would be better on the regulated and 2.2Ω would work better on the unregulated battery.

Just checked my Coil. It is 2.2 ohm and my battery is ego style 3.7 which is fixed. I cannot change it.

So now what you all suggest me? I mean which is better in vaping? Like taste, TH and all..

That's a great ohm/volt combo. Should be fine.

The lower the ohm, the hotter/more throat hit/more vapor you will get.

That should be great, if you want a little more throat hit you can try a 1.8 as well, but a 2.2 should be right in the pocket.
