gunrunnerjohn posted:7.2 watts is about right for really good smoke from the 20 ohm resistor. Remember, it's a 3W resistor, so in free air it'll handle 3 watts without getting nearly hot enough to vaporize the smoke fluid.
Based off a suggestion from another post, I ordered a 5W 20 Ohm Resistor. What the result /difference in using a 3w vs. 5w resistor?
