Just to add a little on this. I've been vaping for 2 months, own alot of regulated mods, do my own coils, do my own juices but I have yet to try a mech mod. I know ohms law, watts law, battery lingo but I just don't feel comfortable using a mech mod (yet?).

If you're new to vaping I would suggest DIY coil building first and a LOT of research on batteries, ohms law, etc.

@aalfawaz, I just took a look at the link to your batteries that you posted. For battery amperage, what is important and what you want to look at is the "Continuous Discharge Rate," NOT the Pulse Discharge Rate. The batteries you have are 20 amp.
Oh I see thank you for letting me know .. Are these good enough for dripping around 0.15 ohm or should I get something else?

@aalfawaz with that mod you can prety much put any coil build in a dripper and it would work, i would stick with as was posted above, 0.5 ohm or so coils, also look up some of @Mooch posts on batteries, he realy does some great work keeping us all informed on what batts are doing what, Happy Vaping!

0.15? You are not taking our advice at all. I think you need to do some more homework. I'm done here. Please be safe and do A LOT of research before building your own coils. Everyone wants to build low ohms and blow teh cloudz bruhz, until they blow their faces off. BE SAFE, DO YOUR HOMEWORKZ

We're trying to help you, and you just don't want to listen. So I guess you're going to have to find out for yourself how uncomfortable a 0.15 ohm will be to a new vaper, and please don't go get a mech mod and put in 1 of your "35a" batteries and your new pre built 0.15 ohm coil(s) on your new rda. Trust me, I am saving your .... here dude. You obviously do not understand your batteries power, and do not understand ohms. 0.15 pre built by some kid in his moms basement who worships rip trippers, or built by yourself, it is going to be the same result......Like my ex wife...HOT AND DANGEROUS. Do your homework, be safe.

As Bigcap stated, you aren't listening, and do not understand Ohm's law at all if you are asking a question like this!
That is a load of 25amps at 3.7v, hopefully they sag that much! You have batteries rated for 20amps. Care to guess what's gonna happen?

What would like us to say? "Sure, go for it, hope you don't blow your fingers and lips off!"
You are wanting to learn, right? It's better to try to crawl, then walk, then run.
Do you have a volt meter or other way to test the coils you are wanting to build so you know what you are making? Yes, there are apps, and rough figures, but without testing it on the atty, you can never be sure you don't have a short somewhere.
Start higher resistance, shoot for like a .8 ohm coil, it'll be easier to build and install than a big thick short coil.
Download, or create a shortcut in your web browser, to an Ohm's law calculator and always try to allow a 20% safety margin. Meaning you have 20amp batteries, stay at 15-17amps, or less.
We aren't trying to be mean, but think about that battery in your mod, it's got the equivalent power as 1/4 stick of dynamite in the wrong conditions! Is that a little better perspective?
Just because someone on Youtube got away with it once, doesn't mean you will!

Didn't even bother read what you have written such a waste of time ...

you're the very reason us "educated" vapers are getting bad raps. It's people like you that see big clouds and don't care to educate yourself about any of the consequences. In one ear and out te other. Good luck, and try not to blow your face off in the near future.

He is using an RX200 with three 20A batteries. Ohms have no affect on the current pulled when used on a regulated mod. He can safely go up to 120 watts with three 20A CDR rated batteries.

My assumption is that you're either in your teens or early 20s and have friends who are vaping at 0.01ohms and you want to look cool in front of your friends.

Do it on your RX200, please for the love of god don't buy a mech mod and try to vape it with that build and even if you do and end up hurting yourself please don't be on the news when it happens.

Cloudz brah

I totally agree and was wondering about this crazy wattage numbers those mods have. I never went above 50 watts on the subtank. You guys are making me confused with the batteries I will get you a link hold on.


MXJO 3000mah 35amp IMR18650 battery (pair)

Here is a link above of the batteries I have

First and foremost, there is no such thing as a 35 amp battery. None. Nada. It doesn't exist. Some companies will lie through their teeth about battery specifications.The MXJO batteries are known for not being what they're advertised to be. For example: MXJO 20A 3500mAh 18650 Bench Test Results...just another rewrapped 10A battery

This is why many in this thread are asking you to do your research and ensure you're doing things right. Sticking your fingers in your ears and refusing to listen will do nothing more than ensure you're a statistic down the road.
