First the atomizer heats up, then the battery heats up a little

I think it's due to the low resistance coil you are using. That causes more wattage on the mech. Try a higher resistance coil.
All depends what you mean by "a little hot"
You're battery(s) should never get hot with normal usage. Even drawing 24A from your 30T with a 0.17Ohm build in the Dreamer.
It's possible that you're chain vaping too hard and the hot atty is transferring that heat to the battery. Not good.
Also have you tried a different atomizer? Maybe there's some internal resistance in the one you're using. If so you should take it apart, thoroughly check and clean all components in the 510 and build deck and reassemble. Make sure the 510 pin is scewed snug.
If you're saying that you're also getting hot batteries in your Aegis X (dual 18650) at 60W with a different atomizer then it's weird.
Bottom line is you should be very careful. Hot batteries in a regulated mod would be scary enough but a hot battery in a mech is asking for trouble.

I have stopped chain vaping and the batteries are getting frozen
You could try a heat sink to reduce heat transfer from the atty to the mod.
Something like this $1.37 510 Finned Heat Sink for Atomizers - stainless steel / 22mm diameter at FastTech - Free Shipping

Well now you know why I have more than one mech mod sitting in front of me.
When one atty starts getting hot, (and they WILL get hot) I switch to a different one.
add:
Now if the mod starts getting hot at the switch, (bottom) then there is a resistance problem in the mod. So clean stuff up!!

It could also be the batteries. Are they high drain? What kind of batteries are you using and how old are they?
