So I came across a Voopoo 157W Drag box, with batteries in it. Honestly I found it lol. My buddy gave me a tank with a coil in it. The batteries in it are Samsung INR18650-25R, the coil is .16 ohms. SOOO my questions, 1 are these batteries safe to run up to the 157 watts? 2 Is it in my best interest to get a different coil if I want to run up to the 157w rating? I am literally a virgin when it comes to these things. Any help would be greatly appreciated

What is the benefit in running at 157W? Higher watt doesn't necessarily mean better vape.
Two battery mod? Really 2 batteries including the model you mention should be run up to about 120 max without stressing them. They will probably do the 157 while freshly charged but not when they are half empty

I honestly have no idea what using the different wattages even does, I just don't want my batteries to catch fire or explode if I decide to run that high. I'm just trying to figure out what is safe and not safe and what I need to do to get a good vape. Like I said I found this thing and figured I'd try it out. What about the .16 ohm coil? what wattage is safe to run with that?
It's a regulated mod so if the batteries are what they say they are Samsung 25R they are fairly safe in the mod. If they are rewrap counterfeit maybe not. Nothing is ever 100% safe
Start out with a higher ohm coil and lower wattage if you don't vape now.

85-94 watts. But it's all personal preference. We each have our own.

Are you close to any vape shops? That would be so much better for you to learn about ecigs.
What kind of tank did your 'friend' give you? And do you even smoke cigarettes? Or is this just a 'lets see what this does'? type of situation? Are you old enough to legally use these product?
when I use the lower wattage it isn't pleasant it burns like all hell to hit it, I did notice the higher I go it gets smoother.
nope sure didn't it was one of my drug dealer neighbors customers that clog up the parking lot leaving me nowhere to park at my own place of residence. They drop stuff all the time especially money. I take it as payment for being a douche canoe and selling to high school kids.
Burns to hit on low wattage and gets smooth at high wattage sounds a bit fishy
I really don't know. I like a .03 ohm and a .05 ohm but I never have gotten past 15 Watts before my ejuice starts to taste burnt. I like a cool vape.
I have a couple juices I get a smoother hit at higher watts, but only a couple or so watts higher.
OP, I'm not really going to comment on how you acquired your setup, I believe you.
I will say that a) no, don't vape that thing at 157 watts, just because it goes up that high. You may stress your batteries and also burn out your new equipment quickly.
Also, if I found *any* vape, I'd recommend (since you can't find the owner) cleaning it thoroughly and REPLACING the batteries, you don't know how old they are, you don't know how the drug dealer treated them (and the mod) etc. I would buy new batteries and proceed with caution. I'd also suggest as others have said, not going over 120 watts in that setup (which to me would be pushing it but I vape at low wattages.
As far as a new coil, I don't see that you need one. You don't need to get up to higher wattages, you need to run wattages that are comfortable/safe for your mod and your build is plenty low already.
Also, good luck moving forward (and hopefully the mod).

I started vaping at 8 Watts. The equipment was different then...
I personally see no reason for more than 50 Watts. Did that on a dual-coil setup on a mech mod. Way too hot for me. These days I am usually 25W / 430*F on a Temperature Control mod, or 11 Watts on a mech mod.
This is not an endurance test. It is a method to quit smoking tobacco.
Did it occur to you that a drug dealer's customer might have self-destructive tendencies to begin with ? Turn the wattage down to maybe 10 watts, and slowly raise the wattage in small increments until you are comfortable with the results.

Why don't you read up on stuff a little before you ask silly questions start at the bottom and work your way instead of trying to blow your face up from the get go my 2 cents
Also, having been married to a dealer... Sanitize the mod somehow, if I didn't say that already. A lot of them sample their product, leading to undesirable health conditions.
You know, I'd have a hard time being happy using a mod I just "found" somewhere, period.
With that said, I AM glad you are here and asking questions, since it appears you will be vaping. Keep up the questions, don't get deterred. With that said, maybe a nice, new starter kit that's easy to use might be a good place to start from, KWIM?
