Im about to begin using my first APV, after vaping on mech mods since 2009. It's a reuleaux RX200. Here are the specifications:


Size: 50.0mm*40.0mm*84.0mm
Thread type: 510 thread
Cell type: Three 18650 cells(discharging current should be above 25A )
Output mode: TC-Ni/TC-Ti/TC-SS/VW mode
Output wattage: 1-200w
Temperature range: 100-315°C/200-600°F(TC mode)
Resistance range: 0.05-1.5ohm for TC-Ni/TC-Ti/TC-SS mode
0.1-3.5ohm for VW mode
0.69 inch OLED screen


It's recommended that the discharging current should be above 25A, but I only have 3 new Samsung 30Q 15A 3000Mah 18650 batteries. The continuous rated discharge for these batteries is only 15A. Would I be risking anything bad by using these batteries in this APV?

Also it has three modes for ecig wires: Titaniam, Stainless Steel, and Nickel. But I'm using 2ohm Nichrome coils I got from China. Which mode would work best for Nichrome?

Also, I used a calculator to find that 2ohm coils should have 6.845 watts and 3.7 volts, but what is the best temperature setting?

With regulated mods, you choose the batteries used by their amp rating and the wattage setting that you will be using:

-If you use a good quality 15 amp CDR battery like the Samsung 30Q or Sony VTC6, then you are good up to 45 watts per battery; 90 watts using two; 135 watts for three batteries.

-If you use a good quality 20 amp CDR battery like the LG HG2 or Samsung 25R then you are good for 60 watts per battery. If using a 2-battery regulated mod, you're good for 120 watts as you have two batteries. If you are using a 3-battery mod, you're good for 180.

-If you use a single 25 amp CDR battery like the Sony VTC5A, then you are good for 75 watts per battery, 150 watts for two batteries, and 225 watts with three.

-If you use a single 30 amp CDR battery like the LG HB6 you are good up to 90 watts; with a pair of 30 amp CDR batteries you could safely do 180 watts, with three batteries 270 watts.

-If you will never vape over 135 watts in your RX200, you don't need higher amp batteries than the 15A Samsung 30Q. The additional mAh should provide you with longer vape time than the higher amp batteries.​

Concerning wire types, unless I am mistaken, NiChrome should be used in wattage or power mode.

Ni wire in Ni mode only (TC).
Ti wire in Ti mode only (TC)
SS in either TC mode if SS is supported, or watt mode.
Kanthal in watt mode only.​
