On a fresh charged battery you are pulling close to 13Amps. That battery is rated to 6 continuous and about 12 pulse. I'd get a 30A 18650 battery if your building anything lower than .6

before you wave your finger at someone it would be helpful if you can explain what someone is doing wrong. A lot of these people have no ides the dangers of low resistance builds on smaller amp batteries
My apologies.

I'm totally supportive of the sub-ohm phenomenon, don't get me wrong. I enjoy a bit of semi-extreme sub-ohming myself. What I don't like is that it has become extremely popular as of late, but both battery safety practices and ohm's law education seem to get overlooked by a lot of newcomers. Not that it is always entirely their fault. I was just having a facepalm moment.

Cloud chasing can be dangerous.

That 18350 battery has a 6 amp limit. Pulling a .33 ohm load on it fully charged will be pushing 12.7 amps, more than double what it is rated for. It is an IMR so at the very least it would just get extremely hot, and possibly vent gases(assuming the mod has ventilation in the tube at least) it is still dangerous. The lowest I'd build on a 6 amp battery would be .9 ohms, or 4.6 amps.

If you want to run a .33 ohm coil, please do yourself a favor and pick up some AW IMR 18650 1600mAh (24 amp) or some Sony US18650 VTC4s (30 amp). These are the two batteries I recommend regularly for sub-ohm vaping, both of which have great discharge curves.

Here's a pretty regularly updated list of batteries/amp limits:

Bah forget it, im not here to feed the trolls, you want to burn your face and hands and damage equipment, go ahead. Not my problem, just don't post it as if your some "cool guy" for doing it. My current build is .2 ohms, but on a battery that can handle it, was never telling you not to, just trying to help out.

Hey roadie thanks for the reply yeah haven't tried duals yet I'm waiting on my helios clone to come in should be here sometime early this week to try dual just didn't want to put two air holes on my Igo,

Anytime. I have 2 Patriots with 1/8 dual holes in both and love it. For those rare times I want to sit back with a tighter draw, I have my Trident adjusted smaller on my Hammer clone. You can still do mouth inhales only with dual 1/8" holes, if you have a warm enough vape at a lower resistance. :toast:
