I just ordered a smok alien 85 starter kit without realizing that the batteries I have are only 20 amps. Before I was accustomed to vaping at lower wattages and that smok coils usually require higher wattage is to operate. Does anyone know the max amount of Watts I can pump into a battery with a 20 amp limit without having a problem. The batteries are the LG HG2's 3000 mAh.

    Max watts per number of batteries.

    I'll second @Izan. LG HG2s are actually 18 A, so you can go up to 50 w per battery.
