Volts and ohms and cartomizers, oh my!

[lemonshrew]

I've seen several people mention the voltage of the batteries and what the different cartomizers can work with. I'm a little confused on how this works.

I am particularly interested in the clearomizers:

808D CLEAROMIZER 2.6-2.8 OHM (this is one I found at madvapes)
​

Here are the spec's on my battery (I have 4 but they are all the same.):

Battery Type : Includes 1 Battery of Automatic or Manual Switch

Usage on Full Battery: 200 Puffs (approximate)

Voltage : 3.6 - 4.2 volts

Battery Rating : 250mA/H

Charging Time : 2-3 Hours

Length : 79mm / 3.11 in (110mm / 4.3 w/ Cartridge)

Diameter: 9.25mm (0.37 inches)
​

How can I tell which cartomizers are going to "burn out" and which will work? Or is this even an issue?

Thanks!

Hello and welcome to ecf. The clearomizers have 510 threads and some have KR808 threads on the attys. What type of ecig do you have. You don't indicate what the threads are on the battery/

For a better understanding of power, voltage, and resistance, which are the REAL basics of vaping, read this...

But to answer your question, you have a standard 3.7v battery, and a 2.6 ohm clearomizer will not burn out.

It sounds like you have a KR808. Arno at Electronic Cigarette Kits, Eliquid by Awesome Vapor can probably help you decide on what works best.

Vapor4Life-Because it's your life - E-Cigarettes/Smoking Alternatives is another KR808 dealer.

Keep checking back here for answers from KR808 users. In the mean time, I'd use the Contact Us link at the above web sites and explain to them what you need to know about cartos.

Check out this thread. I think you will get the answers you need. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/176107-cartomizers-kr808d-1-a.html

Anything in the high mid-high 2's up to low 3's for ohms should be OK on a standard KR808D-1 battery. I think the V4L WOW blank cartos are down about 2.6 or 2.7? Should be OK. Treat them gently though - that plastic can crack and a few people have had the bottom twist right out and dump juice on them.

Thank you guys so much! Sorry, I should have mentioned that my batteries are 808's.

I have those exact cartos for my 808 (Bloog). They work great!
