That's just Too Low for a Single Battery Mech.
And I would Hate to see someone Follow your Example, and then have a Problem.
The heat you feel is just what has been transferred through the can of the cell and the wrap, which also acts as an insulator. There will be a loss of heat through this process. You have no idea what the internal temperature is of the battery. The internal heat of a battery can rise so quickly, that there is no transfer to it’s surrounding areas – and should such a reaction happen, there is no turning back.
The objective here is to educate those who may be new to ohms law and mechanical devices on proper practices so that they may mitigate risk. Informing those who may not be aware of the risks that operating beyond the means of a battery is “not really unsafe”, is not what I would consider mitigating risk.
The mech threads are always entertaining, time to get settled in... 
Better than watching poll results.

Battery Myth #4: We can use our batteries as hard as we want if we don't get them hot. (at 2:42)
I think I can simplify this by saying, if you need to build that low you are doing something wrong.
Why people feel the need to push the amps with such a build is beyond me. Learn to build correctly for your atty rather than compensating by producing sheer mass of cloud.

I sort of get the appeal of mech mods being smaller, but sometimes it devolves into I want to own a toaster without a ground wire, just to prove I can. Why again is it necessary to push a battery to that limit?
If OP is still around, some of the 21700 cells will get you down to 0.14 if memory serves.
But you can get a great vape with a higher resistance build on your 18650s

I use prebuilt coils. They usually come in between .2 - .4 ohms but after installing them they always drop to about .15~.
yea im just getting the hang of things again. I moved back home after being in another state for 7 years and found my old vape box with a couple mechs from a long time ago. I just kind of needed to refresh my memory on safety stuff so I came to this forum. I must say, this forum is a lot different from what it was 7 years ago...
There is a simple solution to this situation - just don’t use those coils.
I used to always think that if you cannot build your own, you have no place using a mech. Nowadays it seems it has to be a fancy pants coil or it’s no good. I’m telling you, I enjoy a round wire kanthal build as much as any Clapton I have tried. Save yourself the money, go simple.
You're right about this forum.
But you're wrong on the topic.
Now bugger off and invest your money in some fancy wire, so you can enjoy a really good vape.
All round wire builds suck.

Hope you aren’t stating an opinion there
