First mech mod

[bloodless2010]

So I saw the tugboat V2 and I wanted it. You guys probably know the feeling, shinyitis. I've been wanting a rda and mechanical mod setup for a little while, mainly just because of simplicity, something that works nice and looks nice too. Well the tugboat V2 is just that, I noticed it was really damn expensive (atleast what I consider expensive for a tube of metal)
I found this on fasttech;

And damn, 22$ is an epic price, yeah it may be a clone. But it shouldn't be too much of a big deal. I understand ohms law, and a handful about batteries. I may skimp on the mod here, but I know damn well not to skimp on the batteries, I plan on getting some genuine protected aspire ICR 40A 18650, or possibly the 20A version as it has higher mAh. I'm wondering if these will work well together, and if I should make any adjustments. I would also like to know what's the lowest safest ohm I can go, not the minimum (wouldnt risk that) but just the lowest safest I can go. Thanks

Part of your answer: Using a unregulated mechanical I would NOT build below 0.20 and insure that you are using a quality battery purchased from a trusted vendor that delivers at least 20A continuous. I prefer the Samsung R25 battery.

Also, watch this video and insure that you have a meter and use it to test and measure your builds before you fire on your mod.

I think a lot of both answers can be found in @Mooch 's battery tables:

He covers temperatures, actual CDRs, etc. across a bunch of blog posts and tests too. -Mags

Do not use an icr in an unregulated mech. Get yourself some good high drain Imr's, preferably 25a cdr like LG's, Samsung, the 30a cdr Sony vtc4's etc.

I agree, do not use ICR batteries. I use Sony vtc4 and Samsung 25r.

Also, be aware that is a direct to battery (hybrid top) mech. You must always insure the center pin of the atty protrudes at least 1mm from the 510.

And I saw it on Focalecig for $6.50

That mod has no centerpin

Mod features:

• 510 threaded connector, without 510 center pin

Do not use.
