VG/PG ration for 0.3Ohm/35Watt

[DaveCarrick]

Good morning

What PG/VG ratio should I ideally be looking at for a 0.3ohm coil at 35 watts? Coil says it’s for “half DL” and is a voopoo DM4 coil.

thanks

Probably 70/30 VG/PG. To be fair, I think you could run any juice through that coil without any issues. I am currently running 83/17 through a 0.4ohm coil at 35W.

Edit. Not that I have used specific coil.

Interesting, sorry to sound stupid but can you explain why? I always thought 50/50 but I don’t know why I thought that either. Was so much easier when I just went to the local garage for a pack of marloboro haha

50/50 juice is thinner than 70/30 and used more for MTL at lower watts. You could use 50/50. Not sure, but I suspect at the higher wattage you're going to get more vape coming through, so probably want lower nic than MTL.

Like I said, I haven't use that specific coil. What are you normally vaping?

 

[DaveCarrick]

Well I’m fairly new to it so still experimenting to try find out what’s right. I tried 3mg on a 0.15 coil and I felt like crap! Or my stomach did anyway. Think that sets at like 65 watts

 

[hack400]

Sounds to me like you were getting too much nicotine. That's a bit odd for a new vaper just coming off the cigs at 3mg. Did you try lowering the wattage?

What juice are you using? How did you mix the nicotine?

 

[DaveCarrick]

At the moment I was just using a 10ml 3mg pre mixed ejuice. Not bothered buying shortfills until happy with setup

 

[hack400]

Did you try lowering the Watts on your current coil to see if you get a flavour you like and less nicotine rush?

Back to your original question, I think the coil you're thinking of using will work with whatever juice to want to try. Unfortunately, as with everything, there isn't a one size fits all, so when starting off you have to experiment to find what you like. We have all had to do that. Hopefully you find that soon.

Perhaps someone else will see this and pop by to offer other suggestions. Good luck, and keep asking questions if you have any.

• TPP-DM1 0.15ohm Coil – 60w – 80w
• TPP-DM2 0.2ohm Coil – 40w – 60w
• TPP-DM3 0.15ohm Coil – 80w – 100w
• TPP-DM4 0.3ohm Coil – 35w

Ive not used these coils or kit but a couple of questions

as you mention you are new to vaping, when did you actually stop smoking or are you still having the odd one here and there while you get used to vaping.
if youve totally stopped smoking then the detox process can take a good few weeks while your lungs clean out all the shite toxins youve been puffing on over the years. smoking can actually mask issues and now your boddy is cleaning it all out the odd issue can arise.

when you said you tried the 0.15 coil with 3mg what were the actual symptoms. just stomach ache or something more. i can get through 50ml a day using different 0.15 coils on 3mg and have no side effects but i have been vaping for 7 years. even though a coil gives a range of
80-100w im quite happy using mine at 50-60w max. the high wattage may just be giving your body a warning of lets try walking before we run and to slow things down a bit while your body becomes used to a new form of intake.
also vaping dehydrates the body so drink plenty of water throughout the day.

good luck on your vaping journey @DaveCarrick

I will give it a try. Does higher watts create bigger nicotine hit? The coils I have say

• TPP-DM4 - 0.3Ω 32-40W (Half DTL)
• 
  does this mean they can’t be used lower than 32w or is that just a recommendation?
