dual lethal mod?

[DiscoRanger]

Has anyone had any experience with the lethal dual 18650 mod? Not the 3* one. I held it at my local vape shop and it felt pretty cheap for 200$. But I do dig the look. So if anyone has had one could you tell me about it? And if theres a clone out there (i couldnt find one) Were to get it? Thank you guys!

Vape Jam has been around for a while and they're supposed to make good gear. I have no experience with it personally. But if I were going to buy a two-battery box mod--I have-- I'd buy a regulated box-- I did-- and not a mech. You can buy a Snow Wolf 200w TC machine online for half that money-- that's the one I picked and I love it-- or a Segelei 150w non-TC for less. The Hexohm 2.1 VV machine is under $200-- I want one-- and makes 110 watts. Any of those are much safer and make more power than you can safely get out of a two-battery parallel box. And no matter what you do, buy good batteries-- authentic Sony VTC4s for preference-- from a reputable vendor.

I do have my ipv4 but due to size and want it to try unregulated I was thinking of getting this I went to regulated first and I kinda just want to try unregulated to see how it is but thank you for your input! Also most unregulated mods looks really cool to me

Please yourself, of course; it's your money. But vape safe. Buy authentic Sony VTC4s to power it, and keep your coils above .3 for a two-battery parallel box.

You will need one of these. Ohm Meters

 

[DiscoRanger]

Always .3 8 wraps 24 Guage for me it's my go to build, now what's the difference between parallel and series? Do unregulated even use series? I use my ipv4 as my ohm meter because my build is normally around .29 to .31

 

[Boden]

I suggest you wait to get a unregulated power supply until you can answer those questions yourself and understand the implications of the answers.

I would build it far lower than .3 ohm. Maybe if doing dual coil, .3 per coil would be great, IMO, putting the total resistance at around .15.

ETA: With a dual parallel like that lethal box, you increase the safe amperage capability and the mah. So with two 20A batteries, you now have a 40A CDR.

With dual series, you increase the voltage, but CDR remains the same.

Thats a 24g build using dual parallel coils. On a dual battery mech. It is fantastic.

 

[DiscoRanger]

That looks like it could take some time to heat up haha

oh no. Thats 24g kanthal wrapped in parallel (6 wraps) around a 2mm screwdriver. It probably takes about a second for the coils to glow inside to out. Maybe less than a second. I don't know what you consider time to heat up, but this what it looks like within a second after I hit the fire switch:

ETA: It works because the resistance is low. I'm not saying you should try this right away if you aren't good at this yet, but I will say that with something like a 30A VTC battery x2, you can really push the builds lower.... much lower.

The real point was just that with two 30A batteries in parallel, you increase the mod CDR to 60A. So, if you are careful and have an accurate resistance meter, you can do much more complicated builds with lower gauge wire. You can do stuff with 22g nichrome, anarchist wire, parallel, twisted, etc. Even down at .10 ohm, you are still only drawing 42 amp theoretical max with full battery charge. So a mod like that expands your building capabilities. In addition to the added mah.

fasttech has the triple 18650 lethal box clone. There is not many reviews of it, so its a bit of a gamble. In general, though, mechs are not that complicated and many of the clones are great. It helps if you look for reviews and other feedback.

 

[DiscoRanger]

I Saw that, but I'm not looking at the triple battery one it's this one

 

[DiscoRanger]

It said the body was made of delrin, so it felt like a hunk of Plastic for 200$ which is why I'm looking for a clone but I can't find one anywere haha and thank you for the help Davesignal that makes alot of sense now.

I would like to know results of you blood tests in 15 years. Are you planning still to be on ECF?
Thanks for being a real test pilot.

I think the reference was directed at me. Basically, if you are making huge clouds and enjoying massive amounts of vapor regularly, then you are taking more of a risk since we don't know the long term effects of everything having to do with vaping. This is compounded if you enjoy flavors and don't strictly vape unflavored, because some of these flavors contain more chemicals that, in relation to vapor as we use it, have unknown effects. This is true for anyone who is not a tootle-puffer. Tootle puffing doesn't work for me.

But, I wasn't giving a risk assessment. I was informing of some of the benefits of using a multiple parallel battery mech mod for a greatly pleasurable experience.
