| RY,
I'm not going to 'Check' your answers, but they look OK.
Good Job.
The 1.4 ohm resistance is 'quite possible' even though the average production resistance might be 1.5 ohms.
Look at the amps, and total watts before you buy these for you mod.
Triple sounds cool, just know what you are getting before you buy.

Then there was also that PITA filling with the syringe. | |

| So your saying after I changed the ohms on the TCC's to 4.5-5 ohms per coil that they will still draw high wattage from your mods? and possibly ruin them

Do you mean Voltage? As your volts increase, your watts will increase. The lower the ohms the higher the watts. I think this is correct. Correct me if I'm wrong rocky. | |

If you hooked up one that had 1.4 ohms, can your mod handle it?
Would it 'Error Out'? Would running it at 20 watts hurt it?
Not initially, not just once, since most have short circuit protection and current limits.
What about the mods that could handle it. Something that would allow you to vape at over 20 watts? Do you think your batteries will still love you the next morning?

| RY,
The Triple coils have 3 parallel coils to produce a combined resistance of about 1.5 OHMS.
The individual resistance of EACH of the 3 coils is about 4.5 OHMS.
Each of the individual coils will CONSUME about 1/3 of the total watts delivered to the carto.
You are still correct that running these at 5 volts will CONSUME almost 17 watts.

| Again, I want to say "I have not tried these".
The resistance is about the same as dual coils, and they work fine for me on 3.7 volt mods. I question the reduced 'per coil' power as requiring more voltage to find that 'sweet spot'. Some folks claim the 3.7 volts is to low for the Dual Coils, I disagree.
Maybe one day I'll try the Triples. I got batteries that will still be there for breakfast

| Honestly, I have no idea, I haven't gotten that far into mods yet, the 3 PV's that I have are a 650mAh eGo, 900mAh SD and a MV-VV box mod, and I just don't know what they can and can't handle.
I assumed since these were being marketed on a site that only sells eGo's and SD's that they wouldn't sell a carto that's capable of killing your batts or scorching your windpipe

| I find the DCC's seem best at 3.9V (loaded) which is about where a fresh battery for an epower (or whatever the place you got it from calls it today) I have actually run them all the way up to 5V..sucks BTW..I think the big concern here is what are you doing to the battery as well as the control circuitry of what your using. Do you really know what the battery(s) your using right now can actually handle? Do you know what the switch / mosfet assembly is actually rated for? Are you exceeding those parameters? What is happening to it when you do? Will it go boom in your hand or just diminish the battery(s) capacity and or protection circuitry over time?
