osub king mod

on the osub mod are the batteries parallel or series and if series do i add the voltage together for ohms law

The SMOK OSUB King is a Regulated Mod. So you Don't use Ohms Law to Calculate Battery Amp Draw. You use Watts Law.

Here is a Good Post by bwh79 explaining things. Easier than Retyping it...

In a regulated mod, series vs. parallel doesn't really matter much. The calculations are different, but the results are the same. Let's take an example. I'll use round numbers for ease of mental math. So let's say you have two batteries, each at 4.0 volts. You're vaping at 80 watts. (Resistance doesn't matter on a regulated mod. Note it's completely absent from the calculations below.)

If the batteries are wired in series, battery voltages are added together:

4.0v + 4.0v = 8.0v
80W / 8v = 10A

Batteries wired in series "feel" the full amp draw for each battery. The amp draw is 10A per battery. If, on the other hand, the batteries are wired in parallel, the voltage does not "stack" like this, and so the voltage is just the same as that of a single battery:

80W / 4v = 20A

However, batteries wired in parallel "split" the load evenly among all batteries. So the amp draw in this case is, still, 10A per battery.

A question about Serial/Parallel batteries, Amp limits and the Smok Alien..

OK I got it thank you

No Problem.

As you can see, you would need 35 Amp CDR Batteries to reach the Upper End of what that Mod is supposed to be able to do.

I stay at 40 Watts but 100 is nice for some coils my batteries are 20 amps

Yeah... 100 Watts should be Fine all the way down to the Mod's cut-off voltage.

That is the Advantage to buying 20A or Better Batteries. Bigger Wattage Range.

I don't believe I will go above 100 Watts my old mod stopped at 100 and that was the Max for me my normal range is 40/60 Watts with a .19 coil

And If wanted "More Hit", you could always Raise the Resistance of your build Slightly. That way you would still be under the 100 Watts limit for those 20A Batteries.

i probable wont go above 60 watts

i probable wont go above 60 watts

Famous last words.

There is nothing wrong with experimenting as long as safety comes first. Most regulated mods will keep you from doing something foolish.

So find your very own sweet spot and have fun doing it.

Nothing wrong with experimenting, but maybe 40--60 watts IS his sweet point. Anyway, I'm glad you got your question resolved to your satisfaction!

And to answer another part of your question it is 2 batteries in series, not parallel. With decent 20A batteries you can run over 100W safely

I just got this mod 2 days ago I'm learning it i kept my old mod at 40 Watts for almost 2 years so that's ware I like it
