On steam engin it has the flame at green, and i have the setting right i think lol, this is a safe wrap right?

Green means go. Least on the wattage. The safe part of it involves your battery limit, and mounting it without touching anything other the the mounting points

But 3 wraps is not very much, your not gonna get much production from it

Im pretty happy with the battery life and production could be better! But for now it will work im broke and only have one battery lol

I dont have one, i usally just go off steam engin or youtube tutorials

Thats just asking for trouble with a mech mod. While the coil could be wrapped correctly, calculator will not show a short. Short that out, mod go boom.
Do not use a mech mod without an ohm reader. You have been warned

    OP, I know you are running a mech. With that said, one of the many things I like about regulated mods is that a person can often get by with certain bad practices that may otherwise be disastrous on a mech. But, no matter what type of a device a person is using, it is always better to think safety first and to err on the side of caution.

    This entire issue of safety that everyone talks about on here is simply due to the type of electronics we are all dealing with. If we were dealing with the electronics of say a small 9v radio receiver then all of this safety talk would be a moot point. But due to the high currents that are involved with these high drain batteries then things radically change. Just like with any small electronic device, you are not going to run the risk of getting electrocuted from it. However, because these vaping devices need powerful batteries that can deliver lots of current flow then you have to deal with possible battery venting, explosions, burns and things of that sort that you don't have to deal with in many electronic devices. In order to prevent these types of events a guy has to be extra cautious.

    I hope you do get a better battery (for safety reasons) and that you continue to have a happy and safe vaping journey.

    Lower ohm builds will have shorter battery life. More electricity moving through the coil will kill it a bit faster. Also: any build above .3ohms on a mech is gonna produce nominal results. Use an ohms law calculator, practice building, and you'll eventually find a build thats right for you! Oh, and- Get a battery holder and bring extras with ya!! Congrats on the new setup!
