From what ive seen (general rule of thumb) the lower the mah rating the higher the amp rating. Could be wrong but im pretty sure im not. Ive been using those efest batts and my vtc4s for my entire vaping journey and havent had any issues. No hot batteries, no hot buttons, no decrease in battery life or anything. I actually prefer my efest over my sony. To each their own but ive built from 1.5-0.15 and only had a battery short one due to a 510 pin not being set correctly. And not one person has mentioned that these regulated devices have AMP LIMITS. It will only put out the wattage that it can handle at any ohm build.

Smaller mah on high drains mean less internal resistance. Less internal resistance means easier it is on Bart to dump charge.

Sorry man, but I don't want to see you, or anyone else get hurt.

IMHO wanting to build a 0.1 ohm coil to use on a high wattage regulated mod simply indicates that you need to do a lot of basic research before using either.
Not to be rude but I completely agree, people shouldn't be subohming on a regulated device, technically I sub ohm but I haven't gotten my hands on 1ohm coils for the Atlantis yet.

I just looked up the specs on the ipv3 and it supposedly has a 40 amp limit so with the batteries youre are looking at, you should try to find authetic 30 amp cont. 60 amp pulse batteries. And make sure you marry them, meaning you use the same pair of batties and charge the at the same time and only use them together. I would get 2 or 3 pairs of good batts and mark the set one, set two, set three or whatever so you dont mix em up.

^^^^^^^ this is vital! I completely forgot! I don't use my ipv3 much. Too much power for me.

    Specifications
    -Capacity:2500mAh
    -Nominal Voltage : 3.7V
    -Max. Pulse Discharge Current : 35A
    -Dimensions : 65*18.24MM (+/-0.05)mm
    -Operating Discharge Temperature : -10 to 60 Degrees Celsius
    -Standard Charge : CC/CV
    -Cycle Life : > 500 cycles
    -Weight : 65g

    Those look like re-wrapped 25r 20a batteries (positive plate spacing)

    They're a great battery ... just 20a, not 35a.

    Also where do you see that they aren't 30 or 35A continuous, because I have talked to the guy at my local vape shop who uses MXJO's the same ones I bought, and says they are 35A Cont, with a 70 Pulse for 5 seconds. Says he's tested them himself and seen tests of them done.

    I'm just going to say it....
    Just because some guy in a vape shop says something doesn't make it true. I would head back to the vape shop an ask him what sort of tests he performed, on what equipment and what his qualifications are to make a statement like that to an unknowing customer. At the very least, ask where you can see the results he claims to have seen regarding the batteries.
    It's your safety, so choose your own path but I've always made it a rule that- when my safety is in question, I tend to do my own research and come to my own conclusions. In the end, nobody is to blame but me.

    Again, these are the specs. for THAT battery
    Specifications
    -Capacity:2500mAh
    -Nominal Voltage : 3.7V
    -Max. Pulse Discharge Current : 35A
    -Dimensions : 65*18.24MM (+/-0.05)mm
    -Operating Discharge Temperature : -10 to 60 Degrees Celsius
    -Standard Charge : CC/CV
    -Cycle Life : > 500 cycles
    -Weight : 65g

    and these are the specs for the 25r
    Specifications
    -Capacity:2500mAh
    -Nominal Voltage : 3.7v
    -Max. Continues Discharge Current : 20A
    -Max. Pulse Discharge Current : 35A
    -Dimensions : 65*18.24MM (+/-0.05)mm
    -Operating Discharge Temperature : -10 to 60 Degrees Celsius
    -Standard Charge : CC/CV
    -Cycle Life : > 500 cycles
    -Weight : 65g

    See the line they left out for your battery???????

    THERE IS NO NEED for a .2a build with a IPV3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Do a normal build & adjust the watts up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
