People have been pushing the limits of their gear since the early days. I remember the days of 15W regulated mods. Back then I used mechanical mods and RDAs built to .2 ohms to get a vape I found satisfying. Nowadays I use primarily regulated mods (except squonkers which mine are all unregulated) because they have enough power to satisfy my needs. Everybody is after something different and if someone is trying for 400W isn't it better for them to do it on a protected regulated device than on a mechanical? It can be done either way but to push that much wattage out of a series mech requires a level of knowledge that some who would attempt it do not have.

Probably a lot more. I remember when the Sense Cyclone tank dropped and the neck beards could get 6 pulls at 150W before needing a refill. :lol:

I can Only speak for myself. But I am Immensely Grateful that I can get a Satisfying Hit off a Single Coil RDA at 25 ~ 30 Watts.

Wouldn't you need like 10 batteries for that to vape 2 drags? You may as well just hook your RDA up to a welder.

ok i checked that box out today,it has a 4s 14.4 volt lipo and according to one of the guys in the shop
by ohms law it was vaped at 1300 watts ,
builder has one that he vaped at 3500 watts ,is that even possible ??

Yes, well the math is sound, trying to vape it maybe not doable!
4S 2600 mAH x90c / 1000 = 234 amps. 14 volts - 233 amp - .06 = 3266 watts

I would NEVER push the full C rating of a lipo I am bringing near my face. Just sayin'.

Totally agree Mike!
Just saying the math would suggest it was plausible. In theory!

Lets face it, for even extreme vapers 100 watt boost for a few seconds in bordering the limit, of a vapable hit, IMO :)

Sound math and sound judgement dont always go hand in hand.

Can you imagine, a 3000w hit, even if you pulled a Bill Clinton and didnt inhale.

Although the 3 letter agencies would love it, more fodder for their scare campaigns.

Thats the ridiculous max limit of the math! I can't see any one trying that, with out burning up their lungs!
But, 400 watts? Could come in handy if you use it as a preheat for some ridiculously low build.
I mean just for a second then down to a reasonable wattage.
Some of these three & four core fancy clapton builds need a lot of Power to ramp up, especially when you double & triple them up!
It's not my style, but it's nice to know if some one wants to build & vape like that they could, safely! with the power of the DNA250c :)
I'v seen YT videos of idiots @ .06 on a mec with an 18650!! Well those idiots could safely run that build on a Lipo powered 250c mod :) Just Saying!

But a 0.14Ω build on a 6S will give you 3500W at only 158A.
It's gonna put out a little bit of heat on the mosfets, here solder this 8ga wire to the 510 would ya. :)
