A quick question about batteries

[clint]

I'm hoping someone is still awake to answer this.

Will protected batteries only fire a coil from a certain resistance? I've just built a coil which is reading at 1.3ohm and it's vaping excellent. However it only seems to work with unprotected batteries.

Theres probably too many amps being drawn from a 1.3ohm coil so protection in the battery is kicking in

Thanks. Is it safe to use tho? If not what is the lowest resistance I can go to that is still considered safe to use?

 

[Lord Grim]

Don't know for certain what is the lowest safe resistance, but protected mods (as opposed to protected batteries) tend to cut out below 1.2 ohms. Personally, I don't go below 1.6ish and I try to stay above 1.8.

Check out the main page of the wiki for a chart about safe vaping voltages

Dammit, so close to helping someone

Thanks for the replies. I didn't know that wiki was there lol. So according to the chart I'm just in the red. I think I'll risk it for a biscuit with this one.
