  1. Well it all depends, if you want much better battery life go higher resistance, if you don't care too much go low. Actually, Afallucco, this is not correct. If you get too high a resistance you will have to activate your battery with the button longer to bring the coil up to temperature enough to vaporize the liquid. = shorter battery life. Sia- the 1.8 or the 2.0 will give you the best performance for your battery. As far as flooding, you can take apart the T2 and clean and dry it and it will perform like new. I have also found that if you fill the T2 too high up to the metal band at the mouth piece you can flood them. I always fill mine to just below the band and they don't flood. Actually you can fill up to the point where the wick goes in to the coil but no higher. If you fill higher than that on the T2 a thinner liquid can flood the coil. I started a thread called "a question about resistance" and Viper Ron posted a resistance chart that shows battery voltage versus resistance that is very helpful.
    The amperage draw on the battery is what amounts to the battery life you have. Every electronic device is subject to the physical rules of electronics. At the same power output or watts if you run a higher resistance and voltage you have less amperage draw on the battery than a low resistance low voltage setup. Battery life is all about the draw on the battery referred to as the current or amps.

    OK, but I'm really not there yet with understanding how to do that. All I know is, I get what I get from my Vision Spinner and it lasts me a certain amount of time at whichever voltage I have it dialed in at (you guys have to allow for the learning curve of non-technically-inclined noobs like me). I do appreciate it every time someonelike you offers an explanation for something, though, because even when I can't understand all of it I'm understanding more all the time, and I'm learning more every day. So thank you for taking the time to read and respond to posts like mine.
    Just know the draw on the battery is called current measured in amps. You have a lower current at higher resistances running at higher voltage than you do with low resistance running at a lower voltage giving the same Power output.
  3. Ok. I'm trying this now and the liquid is only partially absorbed. Does it take all day for it to soak in??? When I squeeze the rubber, it just bubbles up to the top and then falls back down into the condom. I always thought I was pretty smart (at least smart enough to figure out a lot of things) but this process has humbled me...
    Hmm, what cartos you using? Also it can take a bit but most of the liquid should absorb. Not all day. It might not all absorb but if you see a lot of it absorbed you should be good.
  4. I like using the cartos - but, I'm wondering why some of them (especially the boge) are so difficult to fill with the drip method. I recently got a bunch of the boge cartomizers (had previously been using the cartos for the kr808) and the liquid just seems to sit on the top of the filler. I really have to spend a LOT of time fiddling with these - poking and prodding with a toothpick to get the liquid to absorb. And even then, it takes forever till I get a decent flavor hit. Am I doing something wrong? I figure it Must be me since I'm still pretty new at this! Any tips would be SO welcome...
    Take one of the rubber condoms they are packaged with on the ends. Fill up one and slide the bottom of the Carto into it. Then squeeze the rubber a bunch of times the liquid will absorb nicely into the filler material.
  5. Also, you can get more battery life from a higher resistance atty/tank. It's all about the amps you're running. A battery at 4 volts on low resistance draws a higher current (amps) then 4.3 volts at a higher resistance. On a 2.4 head at 4.3 volts you're running about 8 watts but your current is 1.62amps. On a 2ohm head running 4 volts you're at 8 watts again but your current is 2amps. It's not just higher voltage gets you less battery life.
