First Mechanical Box Mod

[redz22]

I'm planning on making my first mechanical box mod. One problem I've come across is the switch. Most of the switches I see are at max 5 amp rated, but I would like to be able to use the mod for up to 30 amps, with 20 amps being my minimum. Any help with this? Also, what do most people do for a battery pack/holder? I was planning on using 2 18650 batteries in parallel.

I'm not sure about this but I don't think it is safe to use 2 batts on a mech mod and worst on those amps..

you won't find a mech switch you are looking for, it would be much better to make one yourself... it's not that hard just use a spring or magnets to keep the button from touching the bat

It should be fine as long as they are wired in parallel. Wired in series would double the output voltage to about 8 volts, instead of the normal ~4 volts of a single battery.

Here is a link to the absolute best dual battery holder for two 18650 batteries.
