Quick question regarding coils for Atlantis

[nottmlad]

I'm using on a aspire cf sub and the coil is 1 ohm as that's all they had in the shop, I've ordered a pack of 0.5 ohm coils and wondering how it is going to affect the performance if at all?
The blue light keeps flashing after using for a few minutes of use which I've read means it's getting too hot, will the lower ohm coil be better or worse for this? And will my battery last longer or shorter with the same use?

0.5ohm coil will heat up quicker so your mod will get hot quicker, battery life you may see a drop depending on how you use it.

For your mod to last a bit longer before getting hot, use a higher ohm coil maybe a 1.2

Using lower ohms draws more power from the battery, which creates more heat inside the battery, as well as at the coil. So I would say your problem will get worse. Maybe a bad connection somewhere could be the real problem.

That isn't correct. It will heat up slower, but get hotter, and cool down slower.

ETA Depending on watts, but I was suggesting at the same watts.

cheers tim, it always seemed to heat quicker, but then I have been over 0.8ohms for a long time

No problem. Basically, resistance creates heat, so more resistance equals more heat, but there is much more to it than that. Thin wire (higher resistance) gets hot fast, and cools down fast, so is fine for mouth to lung vaping, as the time used heating the coil is limited to a mouthful sized draw, so doesn't require much cooling. Direct lung inhales require the coil to be cooled whilst (over)heating the coil. I could go on, but you're probably bored enough

No, but I think he may have a problem with the mod, it shouldn't be getting hot at 1ohms.

I'm good at what I do, I'm just picky where I work. And who I work for. I have three job offers at the moment, but they won't pay my worth, so I'd rather just do some deliveries for peanuts for my neighbour (who is struggling). I have a lovely wife and everything I need, I'm not slaving myself for anyone......YET

Arrogant ain't I

Thanks for the information guys, I ordered joytech mini thing last week from China and 4 batteries so hopefully that'll be here before a month in transit.
I got the sub battery months ago and never used it as I kept ordering the wrong juice so put it away till last week if it's faulty I'll have to suck it up and await my new toy, ordering an istick 60 as soon as I can to and an unwell crown and maybe a smok tv4 thing to do I've got a couple of everything don't want to have an excuse to go back on the stinkies this time.
