Hello, vapers! Understanding voltage, watts, and ohms can make your vaping better. These words might seem hard, but with a little knowledge, you can improve your vaping. In this guide, we’ll explain what they mean and how they affect your vape. Let’s start!
What is Voltage?
Voltage is the power that moves electricity in your vape device. Think of it as the force that makes the electric current flow. In vaping, voltage heats the coil, turning e-liquid into vapor. Most vape devices let you adjust the voltage. Higher voltage means more power to the coil, giving you more vapor and a stronger hit. Lower voltage means less power, making a smoother vape.
What are Watts?
Watts measure the total power your vape device uses. It’s a mix of voltage and current. Watts tell you how much energy is used to make vapor. Many vapers like devices that let you adjust the watts because it gives more control. Higher watts mean more heat, bigger clouds, and stronger flavor. Lower watts give a gentler vape and save e-liquid.
What are Ohms?
Ohms measure the resistance of the coil in your vape. Resistance affects how easily electricity flows. Lower ohms (sub-ohm) mean less resistance, allowing more power. This creates bigger clouds and stronger flavors but uses more battery and e-liquid. Higher ohms mean more resistance, giving a smoother vape. Higher ohm coils are good for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping, which feels like smoking a cigarette.
How Do They Work Together?
Voltage, watts, and ohms work together. Changing one affects the others. For example, if you increase the voltage, the watts also go up if the ohms stay the same. Here’s a simple formula: Voltage (V) = Current (I) x Resistance (R). In vaping, this means to get a certain wattage, you adjust the voltage based on the coil’s resistance (ohms). Most vape devices do this automatically, but understanding it helps you set your vape better.
Knowing voltage, watts, and ohms helps you get the best from your vape device. Adjusting these settings lets you customize your vape experience. Higher voltage and watts give more power and vapor, while higher ohms give a smoother vape. Try different settings to find what you like best. Happy vaping!
