Help Rda Ohms etc

[newbierdauser15]

I have a joyetech Vtc Mini 60 watt mod with a BASEN 18650 2500 mah battery and it says 3.7 volts on the battery and 35 amps. I also have a derrenger rda with a 0.39 ohm build on it. I do not understand how the calculators or anything work and I am wondering the max wattage i could run on the rda. Simple answers please, im very new

Since that is probably a 20 amp battery at best, probably the 60 watts your vtc mini can deliver.

UPDATE: From what I found online, it is a rewrapped samsung 25R. The samsung 25R is a 20 amp battery. Theoretically, it can deliver about 64 watts safely when you are at the cutoff voltage on your device. If you run your batteries all the way until they are dead, I would keep it at 55 watts or less.

Thank you but it is the coil im worried about.. can the coil blow up or anything if its too high wattage for the ohms?

The coil won't blow up. It can't. The worst that can really happen is if you overheat it and melt the insulator on the derringer and it shorts out, or the wire gets hot enough that it melts and splits. The device SHOULD cut the power and keep the battery from having any issue if you melted the insulator, but it would ruin the derringer unless you could find a new insulator. If the coil gets hot enough that it splits, you will just have to make a new coil for it.

As for how many watts you can vape on it, we can't say without knowing exactly what type build it is. The best thing you can do is just start real low and slowly work your way up. If you start getting a burnt taste, you are at or slightly above the maximum watts you should run for that coil and wick. Back it down a few watts from there and you should be good.

its a 5 wrap single coil using 26 gauge kanthal

The mod (the joytech) can handle the coil. The mod won't fire a coil that is too low.
As long as the battery can handle the mod, you're ok.

A 5 wrap with 26 gauge kanthal, I probably wouldn't go much above 25 watts on it.
