Sorry for the "intrusion" but I need to ask the brain trust, so I knew right away what part of the forum to go to....
I know about "Battery University". I have the link. Don't bother posting it.
But, the question is:
It there a summary (Chart or spreadsheet?) for max drain on batteries by standard type? Something like
Or does it vary too much by manufacturer, specific chemistry, etc? This all comes from a question posted here:
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...od-battery-question-smartvapes-altoid-vv.html
Why is an Altoids mod sold with two unprotected IMR 18650's? (And should we care?) The guy is thinking he should only order IMRs. OK. But why? No mention in that post of amp limits on the regulator or device.
How does it work with stacking?
Is it even possible to create a "safe" version of this chart (conservative version would be a better term, I guess).
I'd love to see this as a stickey someplace. Maybe not possible/practical. IDK.
EDIT: This is posted in this area, since I'm not talking about "Battery Mods" but rather "batteries for mods". Also will get more views in the general modding area.
