Nemesis with aerotank single coil

[intheblim]

Hi im getting my first mech mod nemesis tomorrow and was wondering will it be ok to use my aerotank with single coil at 1.6ohm on it until i get myself a kayfun or can anyone recommend a better rebuild-able tank ?

mine works fab with a stock single coil @ 1.8 adapted with a second grommet on top and with a dual coil at 1.5 so it should be fine

Oh but IMO the protank 2 with a air flow bAse beats the areo tank !!

because im use to the varible wattage - what will my nemesis push out with a 18650 battery ?

The lady speaks the truth!!! Mostly use Protank II / airflow control for everyday usage. (No faff and no leaks)

Il let an expert answer that one mine starts at 4.1 v and il change the battery when the vape drop s of f usually around 3.6 to 3.7 v , I'm sure sine one will soon give a better answer !

A fully charged (4.2v) battery will give 11.75w with a 1.5ohm coil.

As the battery discharges, the power decreases - at 3.5v you will be getting 8w, and at this point you should think about changing the battery. Remember, there's no meter to tell you when to change it, but you'll learn with time. If in doubt, change it - don't let it discharge too much.

intheblim the aerotank will work fine on a mech as will pretty much any clearo. The only difference from vv/vw will be the drop in vapour production as the battery looses charge. At 4.2 volts you will get 11.75 watts and at 3.5 volts you will get 7.65 watts so it will change as voltage of the battery changes.
The kayfun is my favourite tank just now and will handle higher watts than a clearo if you wick with cotton so you will be able to adjust the resistance of your coil to suit.

wont 11.75 watts give me a burning taste as i only vape at 8 watts at the moment and anything over about 10watts i get a burnt taste ?

[jaysey]

Never had a burnt taste with a mech and I can only go up to 8w on vtr and vamo !

As long as your wick can supply juice fast enough it should not burn.

so if i build coils at around 2.4 ohms and not 1.5 what wattage will that give me - sorry if im not getting the hang of this im a bit new to this ?

The burnt taste is because your coil can't wick fast enough to keep it with the speed you are vaping the juice. It's all down to your wick, not the amount of power you're putting through it. 

What material are you using as wick? Is it a homemade coil, or a shop-bought one? Cotton wool is a very efficient wick, even in a protank style head.

Haven't a clue but lower ohm work best on a mech !

2.4 ohms will start around 7.5w and drop to just shy of 5w at 3.5V. Trust me, that'll feel weak as anything!
