Are you asking about a rebuildable atomizer or are you asking about rebuilding your stock coils?

If you are talking about a RTA/rda:

1. Do you have an ohm reader or a DMM to measure your build?
2. What mod are you using?
3. What battery are you using (brand/mAh/amp rating)?
4. Have you read up on battery safety, ohms law, amp draw?

And why can i not post in other threads? except for this one apparently?

It's in the "stickies" at the top of this forum: New members must post 5 times in the New Members forum. You then have to wait until the servers refresh at :25 past the hour. At that point you can post in most other sections of this forum.

Okay, you have two batteries, one is 15A, the other is really 20A (the 35A is the pulse amps, not the continuous amps). EFest is notorious for mislabeling some of their purple batteries. Purple Efest Batteries not as Advertised

I highly recommend you spend some time with Baditude (our resident battery expert) and visit his blogs before you get into rebuilding. Baditudes Blogs. The blogs regarding mods and rebuildables are listed below:

BATTERIES

9. Battery Basics for Mods: IMR or Protected ICR?
* Another essential read to understand which batteries are safe to use in mechanical and regulated mods. Includes a frequently updated list of recommended safe-chemistry, high-drain batteries with their specifications.

11. Deeper Understanding of Mod Batteries Part 1
* For those who want to learn the differences between IMR, IMR/hybrid, and ICR batteries. What do those numbers and letters on batteries mean? What's an amp rating?

OHM'S LAW

14. Ohm's Law for Dummies (Vapers)
* My attempt at explaining Ohm's Law in layman terms and how it relates to vaping.

16. Explain it to the Dumb Noob: Ohm's Law Calculations
* As simple as it is to use, some people have a tough time grasping the concept. Warning: Includes graphic photos of mod explosions.

MECHANICAL MODS & REBUILDABLES

7. Information Resources for Your First RBA
* An essential read and reference guide for someone new to rebuilding coils. Includes a multitude of useful links on battery safety, mod safety, coil meters, coil building, and the differences in the three types of RBA's.

15. Inexpensive Mechanical Mod and RDA Setup
* A response to the frequently asked question on how to get into rebuildable atomizers with a mechanical mod inexpensively. Includes a list of commonly used tools and supplies for rebuilding and where to find them.

BATTERIES - WHERE TO BUY

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.

* RTD Vapor
* Illumination Supply
* Lighthound
* Orbtronics
