00:00:02.240 what our owns and sub-ohm vaping if 00:00:08.75000:00:08.760 you're a vapor there's a good chance 00:00:10.58000:00:10.590 you've come across topics like coil 00:00:12.47000:00:12.480 resistance and subol vaping these topics 00:00:15.65000:00:15.660 can be a little challenging if you're 00:00:17.59900:00:17.609 new to vaping in this video we're going 00:00:20.26900:00:20.279 to discuss some of these things to help 00:00:22.40000:00:22.410 you understand them in a way that will 00:00:24.08000:00:24.090 improve your vaping experience the areas 00:00:27.17000:00:27.180 we're going to be discussing are volts 00:00:29.87000:00:29.880 or electrical pressure ohms or 00:00:32.93000:00:32.940 resistance and amps or currents the 00:00:37.31000:00:37.320 amount of electrical pressure in your 00:00:38.99000:00:39.000 battery is measured in volts when using 00:00:42.20000:00:42.210 your vaping device electricity flows out 00:00:44.81000:00:44.820 of the battery and through the coil the 00:00:48.17000:00:48.180 amount of electricity that's actually 00:00:50.00000:00:50.010 flowing through the coil is measured in 00:00:51.97900:00:51.989 amps the more amps of electricity there 00:00:55.79000:00:55.800 are flowing through the coil the faster 00:00:57.95000:00:57.960 the coil heats up 00:00:59.71000:00:59.720 this is where ohms come in basically 00:01:02.20000:01:02.210 ohms are how difficult it is for the 00:01:04.78000:01:04.790 amps of electricity to squeeze their way 00:01:07.09000:01:07.100 through the coil 00:01:08.11000:01:08.120 the higher the ohms the more resistance 00:01:11.29000:01:11.300 the electricity encounters when flowing 00:01:13.48000:01:13.490 through your coil it helps to think of 00:01:16.12000:01:16.130 your coil as a straw and the electrical 00:01:18.40000:01:18.410 currents as water if your coil is made 00:01:22.21000:01:22.220 up of a really thin piece of wire then 00:01:24.97000:01:24.980 the electricity is going to encounter 00:01:26.71000:01:26.720 more resistance that is it's going to be 00:01:29.62000:01:29.630 harder for the electricity to flow 00:01:31.12000:01:31.130 through it however if your coil is made 00:01:34.78000:01:34.790 up of a thicker gauge of wire then it 00:01:36.88000:01:36.890 will be easier for the electricity to 00:01:39.07000:01:39.080 flow through it also the length of the 00:01:41.98000:01:41.990 wire in your coil affects the resistance 00:01:44.26000:01:44.270 as well so a coil made up of a really 00:01:47.85900:01:47.869 long piece of wire with a lot of wraps 00:01:50.05000:01:50.060 in it will make it harder for the 00:01:51.94000:01:51.950 electricity to flow through sub-ohm 00:01:54.37000:01:54.380 vaping refers to using a device with 00:01:57.21900:01:57.229 below 1 ohm of resistance when your 00:02:00.52000:02:00.530 coils resistance is below 1 ohm this 00:02:03.21900:02:03.229 makes it possible for lots of 00:02:04.84000:02:04.850 electricity to flow through it and 00:02:06.75000:02:06.760 depending on the amount of volts in your 00:02:08.91900:02:08.929 device it can produce more vapor the 00:02:11.71000:02:11.720 potential danger with having very low 00:02:13.90000:02:13.910 ohms is that if too many amps of 00:02:16.24000:02:16.250 electricity flow out of the battery too 00:02:18.37000:02:18.380 quickly it can over draw your battery 00:02:21.04000:02:21.050 causing it to burst luckily there are 00:02:24.16000:02:24.170 many regulated devices that have the 00:02:26.41000:02:26.420 necessary circuitry and fail-safes 00:02:28.66000:02:28.670 to prevent this from happening so if you 00:02:31.36000:02:31.370 have a coil on your device that has 00:02:33.25000:02:33.260 resistance that's too low the device is 00:02:35.92000:02:35.930 prevented from turning on click here for 00:02:38.97900:02:38.989 some additional resources to make sure 00:02:40.75000:02:40.760 the batteries in your device are being 00:02:42.72900:02:42.739 used safely if you're using devices that 00:02:45.75900:02:45.769 are unregulated it's extremely important 00:02:48.69900:02:48.709 that you check the resistance of your 00:02:50.28900:02:50.299 coils before using them there will be a 00:02:53.25900:02:53.269 video in the future discussing how to 00:02:55.03000:02:55.040 check resistance and safely build your 00:02:57.22000:02:57.230 own 00:02:57.55900:02:57.569 for unregulated devices to summarize 00:03:00.92000:03:00.930 volts measure the amount of electrical 00:03:03.34900:03:03.359 pressure in your battery amps measure 00:03:05.80900:03:05.819 the amount of electricity that actually 00:03:07.81900:03:07.829 flows out of your battery and ohms 00:03:10.22000:03:10.230 measure how difficult it is for that 00:03:12.19900:03:12.209 electricity to flow through your coil 00:03:14.11900:03:14.129 the lower the ohms the more easily the 00:03:17.00000:03:17.010 electricity can flow we hope you found 00:03:19.81900:03:19.829 this information useful thanks for 00:03:21.92000:03:21.930 watching 00:03:22.78000:03:22.790 [Music]
