Battery Clarification & sub ohm

Status
Not open for further replies.
Okay to start my build is 0.3 ohms parallel 24 gauge kanthal with organic cotton wicking on a caravel mod with Mutation X atty. My question lies with my battery choice. Every damn battery chart and app I've used varies about the actualy safe limit on my Sony VTC4 2100 Mah SE US18650VTC4 C4. Could someone shoot me a response as to the most recent reviews on this battery relating to sub ohm. This is a 30 amp battery, yet some charts that I've viewed point the safe ohms around 0.5 +. . and VTC5 at like 0.01 photo 1.jpgphoto 2.jpgphoto.jpg

Help me understand this ^^^, you're running a resistance of 0.01 ohm but asking about safety? You realize that's over 400 amps and if your meter is wrong who knows. Is your meter even capable of measuring that accurate?

I have no idea what you're talking about here mate. Me: "Okay to start my build is 0.3 ohms parallel 24 gauge kanthal"

He is not running a resistance of .01 he said he saw on some battery charts that a .01 was listed as safe for a vtc5. Which COMMON sense will tell you its not. :)
 
I like all the air from the tobh clone, but it will be nice to close some off if i need to with their top cap Air flow control. But yes the clouds, I know what you mean!!

i didn't get enough airflow to satisfy me with my stock Tobh. I started with about 12 holes open on the Mutation and two days later I have it wide open XD

If that's what the post implied then why would he edit it after my reply.
Perhaps your not reading the very first line in his OP?? It clearly says that he is running a .3 ohm build and that he was curious about amperage safety and ratings in relation to resistance battery charts that he has looked at.
