Hello! I have been browsing the DIY modding threads, and have some questions that I couldn't find answers for. I am planning to build a parallel 26650 unregulated electronic box mod. I'm still in the very early stages of planning, and haven't made any definite decisions. Open to any suggestions you have! I do have my mind set on a 26650 mod, though, so please no 18650 alternatives. (-;
My planning so far consists of:
1590b aluminum box from Hammond looks good for dual 26650s. This won't be too tight of a fit, would it? Here's a link:

I am going to use a mosfet (which I think is my only option), so any simple switch should do. This is what I've gathered, at least. The one I am looking at is:

I've been told this was the best 26650 sled, and haven't looked into sleds any further:

The 15k ohm resistor for mosfet:

V4 Basic Set 510 from Fat Daddy Vapes.
and
14AWG copper wire from Home Depot.
My main concern is with the mosfet. I know that they too have amp limits, and all sorts of other restricting factors. Because I am going to be pulling between 50-60 amps, I want to be extra careful here. Don't know the slightest thing about picking a mosfet for this high of amperage, and couldn't find anything I could understand around the forum. Am I overthinking this? Do I need to look for anything other than it's amp limit?
Other than that, I think everything should be pretty simple to figure out and put together. Anything else at all that you think I should know/change/add please let me know!! Thank you all so much in advance!(-:
