Yeah should be fine for that, aslong as you install the coil correctly and keep up maintenance/ care for the battery 99% chance of keeping your face
Link is just to the datasheet for the battery.

Everything being good, a single HE4 cell would not supply more than 7A of current into a 0.6-Ohm coil. That is well below the 20A-Continuous rating. So the battery should be fine. But what kind of tank are you using? 7A is a moderate amount of current and the tank must be rated for that.
Yes, that is a safe setup. Even with dual coil (at .3 ohms) you wouldn't be demanding 20A out of your battery.

Make sure and measure the build using an ohm reader or DMM before putting it on your mod and firing it.
I don't have an ohm reader and its gonna take 6-7 days for it to come as i have ordered online and I don't think i can wait..
And its a Patriot Rba

You definitely don't want to fire your mod only to find out that something's shorting your coil.. Using a DMM/ohm reader would be the easiest way to do this. The hardest way to do this would be discharging your batteries in your brand new mod with your brand new RDA. I don't know if it's a risk you're willing to take.
Should be fine with that RDA. BUT please be VERY CAREFUL when you fire it the first time. You really must check the resistance. If you mess-up and short the battery, it can EXPLODE! And it is easier to mess-up then you probably think...!
Okay. If i get the resistance checked somewhere and it says 0.6ohm on each PRE WRAPPED COIL will it be safe to use those on my setup? I just have to make sure that it's 0.6 right?
It's gonna be so much easier once i get that ohm reader delivered.

Erm, I feel I should mention, the type of RDA or RBA has nothing to do with what amps you can stress your battery with.
Just make sure the ohms are reading .6 when they're actually attached to your atomizer. There's the possibility of creating a short when you're installing them, so you want to rule out that possibility by attaching it to an ohm-reader in the position it's going to be when you're vaping off it.
Well... you really need to build the coil into the RDA, and then check the resistance through the 510 connector at the bottom. Even if the coil you buy is perfect, you may short it out against the metal deck somehow. Measuring the resistance through the bottom-connector is the only way to be sure. You can use any kind of Ohm-meter to do this - anyone you know got a DMM (Digital Multi-Meter)?
Head to a b&m if you have 1 near you , they will probably test it for you after you get it installed and maybe give some hints/advice.
If they say no, ask to see a (popular mod that reads ohms) pop the rda on and check ;p if you are thinking about buying something they usually won't refuse.

Yes, you are correct... but the PEEK (or whatever) Insulator used in the deck is only rated for so much current (and power). Exceed that (by using too low a resistance coil) and the insulator will burn, which tastes horrible, or may fail completely and possibly short, causing the battery to discharge which will be unsafe...

The resistance/amperage doesn't dictate the amount of heat being generated necessarily though. I can understand fear of potentially melting insulators, but at .6 ohms (or even .3 ohms) that just isn't going to happen with normal use.
Technically though, you could melt insulators with a 1 ohm coil if you held the fire button down for long enough.
I can buy. DMM real quick .. But im afraid I don't really know how to use it.. Ohm meter looks easy..
No you have to make sure it still says .6 after you install it. The idea with a meter is not only to know the coil resistance, but to also make sure you dont have a short or bad connection somewhere.
Be safe good luck .6 in a pat should rip
Ohm meter should work, install the coil and check R at the pos and neg screws

I am just being cautious - with an unregulated mod the only easy way to control the power dissipation is with the coil resistance. I must say, I am new here, but I love how complex something as "simple" as a battery and a coil of wire can be! There is a depth and subtlety to Vaping that takes some time to appreciate
I am really looking forward to understanding more about the art!
