final decision on batteries

[bboyralph]

i am under the impression that i need seperate batteries for sub ohm and standard 1ohm+ vaping.
i know that i need batteries with high drain amp limit for sub ohms such as https://www.fasttech.com/products/1372400 or aw imr 2000mah batteries
ive heard that i should get longer lasting batteries for standard ohm vaping or else the battery might blow out so im considering these https://www.fasttech.com/products/1341105

any input would help b4 i order thanks :]

I'm afraid sub-ohm vaping isn't something I do, so I can't help you on that.

Personally, I wouldn't choose protected batteries for any kind of vaping. IMRs are safe chemistry, and "safer" than protected batteries even if you're running them in a mech. Why? In a catastrophic failure, IMRs will vent with heat and gas - protected batteries will vent with flame. I'm assuming that you're going to be using a mech if you're cloud chasing? Regardless, it is worth mentioning that protected batteries are not suitable for VV/VW devices at all.

Also, do you have a multimeter (or a device with a built-in ohm meter) to check your coils?

You should definitely know how Ohm's Law works and understand sub ohm safety, it is not for the beginner and should be taken seriously.

Umm, you have no reason to be sub ohm vaping at all at this point. None! As far as what batteries to get for a mechanical mod, you have a lot of options. Protected and unprotected batteries will fire in a mechanical mod. However, the IMR and Hybrid batteries ( like sonys and panasonics on FT) are much safer in cases of damaged cells/venting. They are much less likely to explode\fire and more likely to vent and get really hot if something goes bad.
