Thanks for the kind words, but don't be hard on jevans as there are a lot of people convinced of the same thing and he was just brave enough to stick up for his understanding of it. It is the vape celebs that repeat this misinfo that should be blamed if anyone, we are not born understanding electronics, ignorance is the natural state of affairs and if people you trust tell you the wrong thing it is nothing to be ashamed of if you believe it.

But the battery cannot see that passive load it has a black box active electronic circuit between them jevans If you have a 1 ohm coil, 80% effiency and 4 V battery at 10 W and a 0.5 ohm coil at the same levels they would both draw 3.125 A as they are using 12.5 W from a 4 V battery. If they drew different currents the wattages would be different, you would have created or destroyed energy breaking the First Law of Thermodynamics, one of the fundamental Laws of Nature.

You are confusing this the situation on the coil side where at 10 W the 1 ohm coil would need 10 V and draw 1 A and the 0.5 ohm would need 5 V at 2 A.

Look at a wall-walt power supply and note the DC ampage and the Mains AC ampages are different.

Don't worry about it I will point out this stuff as it impacts on safety and using the wrong maths is far worse than not using any, so fell I have no option. Don't worry about the ohms over much just be between the min and max your mod supports.

That's not even in Ohm's law, it's from Joule Heating of a resistive load.

You do not have a passive resistive load attached to a battery, you have an active voltage converter between the battery and the coil so you are not applying Ohm's correctly because there a lot more in the circuit than a simple resistive load.  You would be breaking the First Law of Thermodynamics by creating or destroying energy, it can only be converted in this universe.  Google boost or buck voltage converters if you want detail.

Make (almost) no difference unless you are on a fixed voltage or mech mod, this whole sub-ohm thing is just irrelevant to today's vapers. Sub ohm is a completely stupid term that should be ruthlessly taken the pish out of IMO unless you have a mech or fixed voltage device where ohms set the power. It made sense for a very short time a few years ago, then got high-jacked as a nonsense marketing term that stuck and causes untold confusion to this day, high/low power make far more sense and are universally applicable. Though sub ohm coils tend to be bigger, but it's the bigger bit that requires/handles more power not the ohms on most mods, then step forward to recent years and different materials and multiple coils (not to mention airflow and wicking) and you can not do like for like with ohms, well you never could really in any absolutely sense, different gauges etc.

Whoever went into to the shop and wanted a sub ohm (particular res) toaster, kettle electric bar fire, nonsense, complete and utter bollos that hangs around like... (I could go too far with this metaphor, so will abstain).


BTW it makes little difference to battery current requirements unless you have an unregulated/mech mod, another heinous vapersphere crime against conmen sense that soo many proudly spread.


Not against you at all bobby00 , a load of folks are thinking/asking the same, but this rubbish doesn't seem to know it's own sell by date (people repeating what they don't understand as if they did because some twatt they respect just keep repeating it)

thebishman not equal to keeping up with... this thread for one thing  (no raspberry smiley )

Well done jevans 1000 days not chuffin or puffin the dangerous stuff
