Batteries and the safe range to run at

[POSaudi]

Not sure if this has been posted , between the iffy reception I get and the inexperience using the search button I'm sure I coulda missed it lol , but ran across this website that spells out popular batteries and the safe limits they can be run at, thought I'd share .. Disclaimer lol ** regardless of what tool your using you should do the math yourself , know what your using, and if your batteries are authentic, a multimeter is 10$ at homedepot , a small investment for your face , 100$ rig, and your ease of mind *** i use this strictly as a resource, just like I do with YouTube , ohms calculators , this forum , and advice from my local shop , that's all this is meant to be. I wouldn't trust any single one of those resources, only the collective knowledge you get from exhausting research from all of them. ..

That's a real nice table and calc. Thanks for the link.

Those calculators are great, but as the author says, they are only accurate for mechanical mods. Amp draw with a regulated mod will be higher when mod voltage is higher than battery voltage. Plus there is another 5% - 20% extra to figure in for regulator inefficiency.

I did find some errors with a lot of the battery specifications listed in the table, in particular the amp and C ratings. But at least the given values are on the conservative side, so they would be safe to follow should you wish to do so.

I spent a good long month finding battery specifications for my battery blog. PBusardo was given the list and double checked the info himself. He now uses my battery list on his Taste Your Juice Battery Resource Guide. I try to keep this blog relatively updated as newer batteries come on the market.

Baditide that is link you gave is better then I coulda ever wrote myself , great post! And ryedon, I forgot to mention that in the post :/ only for mech mods and even then I'm sure there could be some variation ... To use strictly as a tool but after seeing Batitude's post id definitely use that before this lol
