Hey guys, My name is Austin.
I am new to the modding game, but I have learned A LOT in the past week.
My main concern, and the main reason why I am here, is to make sure my rig is safe to vap on.
I always hear about how dangerous it is to run lower ohms and such.

So basically my rig consist of:
1. Nemesis Clone
2. 3.7V 2100 MAH bat (18650)
3. UD IGO-W4
4. Dual coil *5-6 wrap!*
5. Last I checked it was running .5 Ohm

Now on the battery that I have has absolutely no logo or brand name anywhere on it. Its solid green with a white sticker describing it.
I know that I'm new and probably didn't provide enough information about my rig but any comments would help!
I just really don't want this damn thing blowing up in my face!

Thanks for reading!
-Austin

Knowing what battery you have is the most important part. If you don't know the specs of your battery than you need to try and find out. Contact the person you bought it from to find out or just buy a new battery if you want to be safe.

It sounds like you could have a Sony VTC4 battery, which is good up to 30amps but I don't know for sure.

Using your specs, I'll try to explain it a bit:
Since the Nemesis is not a regulated mod (not variable voltage or wattage) the voltage output from the battery will depend on the batteries current charge. If your battery is outputting 3.7 volts, on a .5ohm coil, the amps or "current" from your battery would be 7.4 amps (this number was obtained from using an Ohms law calculator). You want to make sure your batteries amp limit is above what you are attempting to draw from it.

If you are unable to determine the exact battery you have, I would recommend spending the $7-10 on a new Sony VTC5 30amp battery and know that you are safe. The last thing you want to get cheap on is your battery.
