"Old School" Mechs for me today.

I usually build around 0.5 to 0.8 for the 18350. For single coil I like to build with 28ga parallel, allows me to build to 0.5 without losing to much ramp up time. As far a batteries are concerned, I really like the new AW 18350s, labeled with a 12 Amp limit and 800 mAh.

You might be on to something here. Got my MiniVolt in a few days ago and my MiniVolt mod is leaking some sort of fluid. Yes I know mods are not suppose to leak, but mine just did. It does not smell like the eliquid I have in the tank and the top of the mod is dry.

"Juice" is not causing pitting on the contacts or the batteries. E-liquid is a non conductive liquid. Pitting is something that happens all of the time when using mech mods at sub ohm power levels.

Another vote for HG2s, 3000mAh is nice. A pair of HG2s seem to outlast a pair VTC 5s in my Noisy Cricket.

Another vote for RTD Vapor. Funny enough I just got a set of HG2s for my Noisy Cricket from them, they work great!

What about a dual series mech? You would have to build higher and marry batteries.

Castigador and Dos Equis are two that come to mind.

Again I could be wrong, but energy is measured in Wh (Watt-hours) not current. Current is the rate at which electricity flows through a system. If you don't believe me use Steam Engine's battery drain calculator.

Lol

Wha?! How is one regulated board being less efficient than another have anything to do with series and parallel mechs?

Right, but you wouldn't vape a 1.8 ohm coil at 40 Watts. Most people that vape on a regulated devices adjust Wattage to taste and in the same respect most people that vape on a mech or unregulated device build their coils to taste. Comparing Watts to Watts is like comparing apples to apples, in...

No, I get that. But since the voltage is doubled, one doesn't need to build that low to get the same amount of power (Watts). I think mathematically, you'll still get the same amount of vape time. In a perfect world a mech (4.2 volts) running an atty at 0.25 ohms will net 70.56 Watts of...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if the atty is built for the same amount of power (Watts) wouldn't 2 batteries perform the same, in parallel and series?

Even at 0.5 it vapes hot. See how you like that much vapor with a "normal" size chamber atty before buying a bambino or derringer.

VTC5s on RTD Vapor

I got one and its a nice mech box. Pretty much what others have said, marry the batteries, build high and like any other mech mind the hybrid connection. Doubling the voltage allows you do build with thicker gauge wire without having long ramp up times.

These or the HG2s would be great in a series box since I don't build any lower than .5ohms.

RTD Vapor is another good vendor for batteries.
