Could be a bunch of things. Different coil diameter, wicking, number of coils inside, etc.. they will likely vape quite differently if aspire did it’s job at all. I’m not an Atlantis v2 user so I couldn’t tell you what they might be, but someone will probably be along that can. GL :)

Is there any difference besides wattage needed? Wich one should i buy ? I'm using a eLeaf Ipower 80w 5000mAh with the Atlantis v2
Basically its just the wattage needed. You MAY get a "warmer" vape and some additional vapor production with the 0.3 ohm, but that likely would result in consuming more e-liquid and more battery drain.

The 0.5 ohm may give you a "cooler" vape, a little less vapor production, and would not consume as much e-liquid.

If it were me, I'd choose the 0.5 ohm. Less battery drain, a cooler vape (which I prefer), and less consumption of e-liquid.

1.0 ohm at 40-50 watts? Thats gotta be an error. I can't imagine running a 1.0 ohm coil that high. That would blow your head off.
Was thinking the same thing when I saw that. I wouldn't go higher than 20w myself on a 1 ohm coil.

I think they mixed up the .5 and 1 ohm coil wattages.

I Do Not See How that can be Possible.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I like aspire products a LOT, but if they've managed to achieve THAT with a reasonable coil life, I want to know what is inside that coil and how they achieved it.

I'd also LOVE to hear from some user saying how it vaped.... I almost wonder if they like, mistakenly labeled it as 1.0 instead of 0.1, but with 0.1 the wattage would be HIGHER.

Answers, I need answers, LOL.

Umm, about 0.2 ohms. :lol:

I am sorry, I couldn't resist. As many have already stated, in general the higher the resistance the less power that you need to run it. The exception is if the higher resistance is an exotic coil with more actual mass than the lower resistance. Then it could take the same or even more power for the exotic b/c with more mass it takes more power to heat it up.

And this is why recommended wattages on these coils, from all brands, are typically useless. The correct wattage fit a coil is the one which gives you a satisfying comfortable vape without burning the coil out in two days. I will bet money there is no way that 0.5 ohm coil will vape well at 20W and that 1 ohm will burn out in no time, and probably taste crappy before then at 50W.

Sometimes I think they use a RNG to come up with their suggestions.

There's way too much focus on resistance alone. A 1 ohm coil can easily handle and require more power than a 0.5 ohm coil, for example if it uses the same gauge wire but double the wraps. I don't use tanks with pre-built coil heads so I have no personal experience of these, just saying that resistance isn't all that counts.
