Dam, i was constantly vaping my mech with 18350 until i see this post

[MrVP]

Ok, Man. Thanks.

I said i was going to work, but my translations can wait.

I have 9 weeks only of vapor life. See now why I say so much s***?

But, bit by bit, I'm learning. How I did today, from the worse form, practically being bully. It was 4 against one. "Your hand will explode!!".
Without exaggeretion. One person saying that it was harmful was enough. I'm not stupid as i look. You read Brazil on my profile, but it doesn't mean i can't read english... from one person only. But at this topic there was 4 persons saying the exactly same thing. That some part of some body will explode.

God, i need camomila tea, or an injection of nicotine.

I quit nicotine have 2 weeks. I really miss it at stress moments.

I guess I'll do a juice special do vape an this ocasions.

That's it.


Cya, guys.

Sorry any misundertanding.

Cya Shade.


Bye, Susan. =)( I promess )

I'm sorry if you felt attacked, but honestly, a virtual scolding from some strangers on a discussion forum beats a battery melting down in your hand because you didn't know what you were doing.... wouldn't ya say?

Anyway... I'm glad you're on the right track now.

Well, in the same token what's been said and done cannot be unsaid or undone;
As long as everyone's learning and happy then we're all good!

In MrVP's defense I kinda jumped on mech mods myself without reading up too much, and did my first few builds and kinda lazily checked with my multimeter, I never understood how things worked until I started building my coils and using them then learned about heat and what my tastes were.
But as long as we all learn about safety with fingers attached and no acid burns, then no harm done.

Nicotine... Oh, God, that's good... 2 weeks awayfrom her. never more.i made a 18mg/ml nicotine ratio, strawberry, sweet watermelon and lots of tobacco.

Now I'm Happy.

You say 4 against 1...I say 4 trying to help 1. People took the time to try to help you.

See, people?

That's help. You go after the article the people needs and post it and tell this people that he needs to follow it.

And no saying that the mech Mod will blw off on his face.

In my very first post I told you to click the link in my signature that takes you to those exact same posts....

Don't worry about the language barrier... you are doing perfectly fine with your translations!

I am sorry if you felt like we were beating you up. We just wanted to show how serious the problem was. We did not want to see you get hurt.

I hope you get everything working safely.

I waste abaut six feet of kanthal until iI discover, by myself, that the problemem may be the battery. It gets super-hot.

First - welcome to vaping and giving up cigarettes!! The vaping world is great, there's just a learning curve.


If the battery gets hot your over working it and in a danger zone. A properly used battery should not get hot.

For an 18350 you really need to stay above 1 ohm - 4 amps or less.

I recommend never to exceed 70% of the batteries amp limit. Which is about 4 amps on the 6 amp battery.

**
For best safety on a mechanical - staying at 50% of amp limit is highly recommended very safe.
**

Remember things can happen to reduce your ohms, impacting the amp load on the battery... One thing that can happen is the ohms can change when fired. Also if you happen to get a partial short at some point that can kill your 30% head room and take you to the max. That is why especially for users with less than 1 year building and battery experience should always try to reserve 50% headroom.

If you happen to have your mech auto fire when button isn't locked it is less likely to vent at 50% amp limit. If your running at the max amp load it is likely to vent with an extended auto fire... Many batteries max amps are rated at a pulse discharge. Even continuous discharge rates can vary from batch to batch.

A hot overloaded battery can vent causing bodily harm.
