18650 Sony VTC4

Im vaping on copper mech mod and mutation x V3 rda @ 0.2ohm dual coil, i noticed that my top cap contact pin(copper) gets warm while vaping, same on my battery's top, the steelish color area gets warm.
So, they get bit warm for hand, not even noticeable, but when i touch em with my lips, i can feel they are bit warm, copper contact pin on top cap is almost hot on my lips.
Is that normal? battery aint getting hot, just the top part.

A 0.2 ohm build will heat up your RDA pretty quickly, which will be conducted into the mod and subsequently the battery.

Yeah it's pretty normal. I have a few vtc4's and use them in my mech's due to the fact that they have a proven 30a CDR. My main mech mod has a direct to battery connection, and I build 90% of my coils (dual) to .2ohms. The top part of my mod will heat up a bit but the battery stays cool. It's okay for the mod to get warm, as long as the battery isn't getting warm. A VTC4 can definitely handle a .2 ohm build.
