I have been looking to buy an Eleaf iStick 100w TC mod for a good price (on a budget and want a good 100 watt mod) and maybe an Aspire Cleito (which also released an RTA system whenever I wanted to build my own atomizers without spending another $30-40 for an all new system) to start out trying sub ohm vaping. I have looked at many sites which all have about the same price (except vapordna, their prices are quite a bit higher than any other site) I am thinking of buying from myvaporstore since they also give me the option to add a tank, batteries, a charger, and 1 bottle of liquid for an all in one buy, is this a good site?

Also since this mod is supposedly in parallel, I should be safe in doing 2 20a (E.G. LG HG2) batteries at 70+ watts in lower (0.4-0.2) ohm tanks/builds? What about series mods that do higher watts like a sigelei 213 or the reuleaux rx200, i have read 25a batteries would be fine for those, even at lower ohms as long as you don't do long and/or chain vapes at higher settings.

While i'm on batteries, a good site for batteries? I have looked around and seen a Mooch comment that IMRbatteries is a good site (they have also bought from). Any other good sites as well?

Lastly good liquids, I would assume a good flavor I like at the nic level I want is fine, but are there any bad or not so good brands out there that may be best to avoid? I can buy locally (albeit a few extra bucks) , and try some out since there are a few places near me that have what I like to call 'juice bars' out that you can come up and try one out before you buy it.

When using a regulated mod the resistance of your coil/build is irrelevant in calculating battery current draw.

Only buy batteries from a reputable supplier (not ebay or Amazon) as there are many counterfeit batteries being sold. Here are several reputable battery suppliers in the US.

According to that link Susan, if I run the istick 100w (with the firmware update) max 120 watts I am going over 20a. So a battery that can handle 25a would be best to use if i ever decide to go that high But I don't plan to and every time i use that calculation I am under 20a so a 20a will be fine for now. Thanks for the help!
