Ipv mini/ sub ohm/ battery

[Pikestr28]

That is correct:
60 = 3 x 20.

If you put on a fresh battery 4 volts, delivering 20amps you can get 80 watts
but on a regulated mod, if you set the mod to 80 watts, once the battery drops below 4 volts, it would have to deliver more than 20 amps to deliver the 80 watts.
When it's down to 3 volts, it would have to deliver 80/3 = 27 amps

Okay, so I guess regulated mods such as the ipv 3 fix this by using two batteries. Seems like people are really pushing the safety of batteries in those types of devices. I really appreciate all your responses, I've learned a lot about batteries and ohms law over this. Now to figure out mech mods Lol.

The problem with those high powered regulated mod using multiple batteries is you'd want to keep the batteries matched because those mods put them stacked in series.

Since you mentioned mechs, there are a few mech mods that use parallel batts.

Nice, it's good to get feedback without someone being an ...

I just discovered ONE regulated mod that uses parallel batteries!
Vapor Flask.


I'm sure I've heard mention of vapor flask on numerous occasions, however, I've never heard anybody mention that it seems to be the ONLY regulated mod using parallel batteries.

It's also got a spring loaded center pin.

And its a solid looking aluminum box.

The big downside is it's using the dna30 chip which does not have reverse battery protection; that's the main reason I don't recommend dna30 devices for any new vaper.

No you will not be building below .5ohm and NO you will not be going over 30 watts. The IPV Mini will not allow either.
This is a Regulated mod and is in no way anything like using a Mechanical Mod.

You can use any decent battery in a properly Regulated Mod.
I purchased Samsung 18650 R25's for mine, but my Panasonic CGR18650CH work every bit as well. The Mod does all the boost and control.
The Mod also has several Safety features built in.

The Panasonic CGR18650CH is rated 10A continuous. 30 watts at 90% efficiency will draw a bit over 10A with the battery at 3.2v, so you'll really be pushing it.

A 50 watt device at 90% will draw 17.4A, so a 10A battery could be downright dangerous.

For the lowest safety risk the battery should always be able to supply the maximum current, even in a regulated mod.
