Ok, so I'm trying to get educated on mechs before I get one and do something stupid. I've been building for a few months and have a basic understanding of ohms law and basic battery safety. I've decided that I want my first mech to be a squonk (at least I think that's what I've decided). I'm waiting for the Driptech from 528 customs to launch and it runs on two parallel 18650s and that's where my questions start.
Parallel is still 4.2 volts right? Also, with it running in parallel does that mean that the Amps double and allow for builds with lower resistance? Example: If I have a 0.2 build on a mech with 4.2 volts (before drop) I would be at 21 amps. Right? So if I have a single 18650 20 amp battery I would be exceeding the rating? Would parallel 18650s double my allowable amps?
Please forgive my ignorance when it comes to this. Before I started vaping 5 months ago I had heard of Ohms but that was about the extent of my knowledge. Being a finance guy didn't really prepare me for my new hobby.
