it would help what about it makes it wrong for a new user rather than just saying no lol fish for me and i eat for a day, teach me to fish and i feed myself for a life time.
The CB works well. It is a hard hitting mech. The way it is designed, however, makes it possible to short from the outside if you intentionally try to or have gross negligence for the mod.
These mods are made of metal... many highly conductive options are solid copper. This will scratch and get marred up if you throw it around in your bag or even just put it in your pocket along with your keys.
Most of the people weary about the CB have never actually used one. But, regardless, it is a mech mod.
With any of these mechanicals, the most important things you can learn are to be using the right batteries, inserted in the correct direction (all of the mods mentioned are parallel configurations), and you understand ohms law and are measuring your resistances. Have respect for the tool for what it is and how it works and it will perform excellently every time. When you get it you should look at the circuit. It is very simple. Take the mod apart. Put it back together. Understand how current is going to flow. Calculate how many amps are going to be drawn from the batteries with the build that you want to employ.
All of this stuff is very, very simple. Just there are some new users who are quick to disregard these important measures and it results in something like a battery venting or, in an extreme case with the wrong batteries, a mod exploding.
