[stevenn21]

hi guys im not new to vaping i have had a ego-t for a few years and have just bought and started using a lite 40 40w mod but i want to buy a rebuildable dripper because i still get the nicotine craving when im vaping.

so ive decided to buy a SIGELEI 150W Box Mod and would like some advice regarding batteries and atomiser.

ok so i already own 4x aw ic 18650 3.6v 3400mAh

are these ok to use in the SIGELEI 150W Box Mod?

i also need to choose an rda that is compatible with these batteries, so here are my requirements

Absolutely wrong battery for this application. At best, you will pop the fuse on your batteries, at worst, bad things could happen.

You want very high drain batteries for use in the Sigelei 150.
The max amp draw on the battery you have is likely somewhere around 5A.
I believe Sigelei recommends 30A batteries for their mod which are typically much lower in capacity. I believe the LG HB6 and Sony VTC 3 would fit the bill.

If you are not going to take the mod up to it's full power, a good 20A battery might also do the trick. For example the Samsung 25R.

 

[stevenn21]

Samsung 25R are 30a

Samsung 25R are 30a

20A continuous according to Samsungs specifications

Welcome to ECF!

As @Pushbutton mentioned, the 25R's are 20A batteries. And those AW's aren't a good choice for your Sig. The protection board will prevent them from being used at anything over a few amps. The 25R (up to 125W or so) and VTC4 would work well. If not pushing over 125W and chain vaping you could go with the HG2's.

There are a huge number of RDA's you could use. I recommend checking out the threads here and perhaps lookin at some of the RDA's sold by the vendor of your choice. You should be able to narow down the choices to a couple. Posting here with a couple of particular questions about the two should get you some answers that would help you pick one.

LG HB2 or HB6 if you low sub-ohm at higher wattages.

I run my Sig 150 with LG 18650HE2's and 4's, Sony VTC4's and 5's with no complaints.

Btw can I charge the Sony VCT4 with my xtar vp2?

And can I use the Sigelei 150W without a amp reader

VTC4's in Xstar no problem.

To safely use an RDA, you MUST know 2 of the 3 variables in the Ohm's Law equation. We typically consider Voltage at the battery's full power, 4.2v. It's simpler to obtain resistance measurements than current (measuring amps must be done with power applied to the circuit, and require switching lead connections on the multi meter). From these two measurements, we can calculate current, and thus ensure the draw is less than the battery's safe rated continuous capacity.

I would use 25Rs instead of VTC4s, you'll get more battery life. 25Rs have pulse ratings of 100A for < 1 sec pulses. You will never come even close to this limit with a Sigelei. VTC5s would work pretty well too.

 

[stevenn21]

i already bought rte vtc 4's
what does it mean when it says temperature mod?

 

[GrandSam]

Personally, I would stick with the newer, high-drain batteries:

Sony VTC5
Sony VTC4 (Be warned, both the VTC4 and VTC5 have been "cloned." Avoid fakes)
Samsung 25R
LG HE2
LG HE4

 

[stevenn21]

Sony VTC4 (Be warned, both the VTC4 and VTC5 have been "cloned." Avoid fakes)
i bought VTC4 from vampire vape so i hope there not fake

Assuming it's a reputable site, you should be fine - best to contact them just to make sure.
