Battery Draining Fast.

[Simeon Morris]

Hey, I have a sigeli spark which holds a single 18650 battery, which I recently changed. I'm using the limitless rdta with a single 0.6 ohm clapton build. My only problem is that the battery drain fast and im trying to figure out why.
Can anyone help me?

How fast? And what settings are you vaping at?

well without knowing the battery and your watts
at 30ish watts you should get about 200 -250ish 5 sec puffs
if your running at 50,60,70,80 watts you are gonna get a lot less

do the math
those numbers are not the absolute but they are a guideline for ya

Exactly what battery are you using?

or alright, thanks bro
can using a different coil help tho?

Sure, just use something less beefy. Dual coil parallel clapton measuring at 0.6 ohm sounds like a lot of metal.

Quick example. My "go to" clapton nowadays is 26/30 SS, I use it for just about everything. Now, if I put it in Kayfun V5, the optimal coil would be 3mm ID, 4 wraps. In Modfather that'll be 4mm ID, 2 coils in parallel, 8 wraps each. Second setup will have higher ohms than the first one, but it will burn through the same battery much faster. Why? Because there's a lot more metal to heat up.

makes sense, thanks...but just to correct you im using a single clapton build
