Frustrated - Battery for Mechanical Vape

[Etherz]

Ummm.... ya know what? I use Efest 18650 2000 mAh batteries, rotating 8 of them through my mech, and I could give a flip less how many amps they are, they WORK. I never worried about the amperage rating on them, I just bought them, and used them, and they WORK. They have been working for over 8 months now and I get hours of good vaping on each one and I'm a heavy-duty chain-vaper. So, you might be stressing out about something you don't need to, and perhaps your energies might be better spent on something else.

What ohms are your coils? If you aren't sub ohming your fine. But if your coils are below 0.6 ohms.... well have you ever tripped a fuse by plugging in too many things? The fuse is your battery in this case.

But you're efest 18650 are perfectly fine for every day Vaping

Another note for other vapers. Please download an ohms law calculator to your phone. Plug in 4.2 as your set voltage because that is all a battery can provide and plug in your ohms/resistance. Than calculate. You will see the Amps your mechanical is drawing from the battery.

That's it. The only way to increase amps is to decrease your ohms. Mechanical mods are not regulated and can not increase your voltage.

But magnets are magic!!!!

Unless your going super low ohm, Orbrtonics 22 amp batteries are stellar as are the panys they have. In reality, You could get away with 10 amp batteries at .45 ohms but why cut it close. Might as well pay $5 more per battery and play it super safe. .1 ohm which is about as low as one can go before nuclear reaction, requires 42 amps which with this formula of watts/volts.... or about 170 watts I'm kind of guessing here you could go through 5 ml of juice in about an hour and ensure a higher risk of liquid metal.

I don't think you understand how mech mods work at all.

Of course they all have the same power release using the same coil. That's how ALL mech mods work, regardless of which battery you put in. Here is the basic math equation for you so you can understand.

(Voltage X Voltage) / Ohms = Wattage

Wattage / Voltage = Amps

So, it does not matter if you have a 10 amp battery or a 100 amp battery, if both batteries are 3.7v and the coil you attach to both is 1.5ohm then you're going to have a wattage of 9.13 Watts with a draw of 2.47 Amps on both batteries. They will behave exactly the same.


The purpose of the higher amp battery is for lower ohm coils, especially multi-coil setups that require more than a 10amp draw. For instance, you take that same 3.7 volt battery and hook it up to a coil setup with 0.3 ohm resistance. That results in 45.6 watts of power with a 12.3 amp drain which would cause very bad things to happen to a 10amp battery.

I agree with you, the op doesn't understand how mech mod works. The op is stating that all the batteries are putting out the same power, doesn't matter which one they use, which is completely true because they are all 3.7v rated and output at 4.2v. You CAN'T get more power unless u go lower ohms. That's the bottom line. So if your using different batteries in the same mech mod with the same coils, you're never gonna get a difference in power.

Sorry I just had to chime in because the OP will never find the battery he/she wants cuz it's all the same voltage.

My coils are .7 ohm, and I've never had a problem. When my battery gets below 3.7 volts I rotate another one in and stick it in the charger. This has worked well for me for quite a long time now.
