[fitchy]

hi can someone advise me about the safe use of these batteries? I’ve tried to research them as much as poss, and realise they are unprotected. I have single battery mods kanger 75wat and smok osub 80 watt... if I use a 1.2 upto 1.8 ohm coil on either device, what would be the safest watts to use upto be?
Also are they not suitable really for under 1 ohm coils? Thanks in advance.

Yep. That's an old-tech, low CDR cell, not really suitable for vaping at more than 10-12 watts.

Thanks, I’m usually low wattage anyway, so I guess they’ll be ok as a stand by... cheers

Worked great in a Vamo with a 1.8Ω mesh wicked gennie.

As stated don't exceed 13 watts or you will be stressing it. Going forward you would be better off with 20 amp 3000 mAh cell like the LG HG2 or the Samsung 30Q. Cells like that Panasonic have very high internal resistances, you will possibly get longer runtimes with the cells I listed even though they have less mAh.
