To go bigger – flavor, clouds all-around vape life enjoyment – you got to go smaller, sub-ohm smaller that is.

One of the hottest concepts in vaping these days is sub-ohm vaping. These types of devices are popular among veteran vapers and those who are passionate about their vaping due to the quality of the experience that they provide. Of course, in order to understand how you get this optimum experience, we need a quick science lesson.



What is Sub-Ohm?

Sub-ohm Vaping is the name applied to the use of vaping devices that have a coil which employs a resistance of less than one ohm. As we all remember from high school applied physics (just kidding, no one remembers anything from high school applied physics) the ohm is the measure of resistance that a conductor has when current is applied; this is called Ohm’s Law. You can find vaping calculators and ohm vape charts online to find the sub ohm sweet spot, but what you need to know is the lower the resistance the hotter the coil can get and thus the better vaporization that can occur. When vaping first started out, manufacturers tried to use higher power batteries to create higher voltage, and thus more heat, but there are limits on how much amperage you can apply and still have a device that is small and comfortable to use. It was then found that the secret lay in the coil itself. Having a coil with higher resistance allows lower ohms to produce more heat and thus more vapor. Science for the win!

Why is Sub Ohm Better?

Simply put, sub ohm vaping is the bomb for serious vapers because it creates bigger, more flavor rich, clouds of vapor from a comfortable temperature. These clouds are more filling and more enjoyable for the vaper. Sub-ohm vaping is a great way to get a better experience no matter what type of vaping you do. The best part is that sub-ohm devices are available from just about every manufacturer and in all vaping forms. There is even a limited edition program that VaporDNA is a proud partner of called Project Sub-Ohm, which brings sub-ohm to some of the most popular devices from the top makers.
