I bought the above mentioned battery as well as a pack of pre-built kanthal twisted micro coils to put on my new RDA which has yet to arrive. I realized I ordered the coils at 0.5ohm when what I actually wanted was 1ohm each. With a double coil build for the 0.5ohm I'm assuming that I'll be a bit more than 0.25ohm altogether.
I've read that this battery is actually a re-wrapped LG with a 20A max continuous discharge rating, so I think I'm looking at 16.8A draw from this build assuming 4.2V.
Of course I am going to measure the resistance of the RDA when built with a multimeter, but at this resistance I'm not sure how accurate the readings will be. When built I'm sure there will be a slightly higher resistance, and with the voltage drop of the battery/mod maybe I'll be in the clear? This being said I'm still sceptical, and am considering buying some wire and coiling it myself to get a higher resistance (shipping prices to Canada would be hard to justify for another pack of pre-built coils...).
Do you think this set up is reasonably safe?
If not what would you consider safe?
What precautions could I take besides getting / building different coils?
Can you offer any experience with sub ohm builds for this particular battery or similar?
EDIT:
The coils are UD 26 gauge twisted microcoils found here: UD Prebuilt Twisted Micro Coils
but I don't think the twist rate is specified.
RDA will be a doge x v2 with mutation x v2 mech mod
