i think ill order some rayon then unless i can find it at a general store/drugstore? also with both your guys setups about how long does your batt last before needing a recharge? i want it to last kind of all dayish so i should make my builds acordingly i guess lol

I've not seen it anywhere but Sally's beauty supply... you can order it online too... just make sure that it says 100% Rayon on the box! (There is a box that is almost identical that is 100% cotton)
With my dripper around .2 ohms, I get about a day if I use it most of the day... I've got a genesis tank at .8 ohms that I put on it sometimes.. I can get about 2 days out of it.
I usually bounce between 3 or 4 different setups throughout the day though, so it's pretty hard to say...

I've got the KeepPower 4200mAh 50A 26650 battery in my Gladiator. KeepPower's stat sheet places it as a 30A continuous draw limit battery.
I'm running dual coils with 24g Nichrome 80 in a 29mm Tobh at a total resistance of 0.16 ohms. That puts me at 26.25A on a fresh charge. Not my daily driver, but fun to play with at home. No hot button, no heating of the mod itself at all. Heats quickly and have seen no problems with it at all. I recharge when it gets down to around 3.6v.
If you want to see KeepPower's stat sheet, check my blog link... it's all posted there.
For the time being these are the only batteries I use in 26650 form factor, and the only ones that I personally recommend.

Hope this helps.

Hey Kaezziel, have you done any checking on voltage sag at 25 amps? Keeppower has some great cells as long as you choose wisely for your application. The reviews on this cell show a significant increase in voltage sag from 20 to 30 amps, it would be interesting to see if that is a steady increase or declines quickly at some point within that range.

I haven't measured it, but you can tell the drop from the vape... it don't take long! LMAO
I only take 3-4 second pulls at a time on my really low builds. I notice the voltage drop after an hour or so... still within vapeable ranges for a long time after that, but as everybody knows... there's nothing like the first few hits when the batt is fresh off the charger in a mech!
On my genny, it "feels" fresh for a lot longer (.8 ohms)... It's pretty solid for most of a day... second day is still vapeable and satisfying.

One of these days, maybe I'll stop being lazy and measure it.... probably not, though...

So all my stuff came in yesterday about 5min before I had to leave for work, build a dual setup lastnight that came out to be around .35! Naild it first build no screwups, I'm sure I'll have plenty but it was exciting. I don't want to be that low so mabe less wraps next time Lol. I am slightly disappointed tho, the 454 I ordered I thought was 28mm and its not. A little harder than I assumed because of the size to do the build but meh. Does anyone know if they make a 28mm 454 if not I'll get a plume veil cus the 454 looks a little goofy on my hades Lol.

If you trying to up the resistance, you'll want to add more wraps, not less. Or you could just go with a single coil if you're going for a higher build.
