Safe battery?

[sg1hicks]

I have a few LG HE2 18650 batteries and are the safe for sub ohming? I want to get around the .2 or a bit lower.

Any advise?

Use multiple high drain batteries in parallel if you want to go that low.

Im using an unregulated mod, the lowest ive gone is .3 and its pretty stable and im running on an zenith and a sentinel m-16 if it matters.

Thanks for the info, im getting an sigeli and an 454 for my next upgrade.

get yourself a really good ohm meter for coil building

At .2 Ω with a fully charged battery at 4.2 volts, you're pulling 21 amps and 88.2 watts. The LG HE2 batteries are rated at 20 amps so you're going over their rating. .3 Ω drops it down to 14 amps which allows you a safety margin. I wouldn't go below .3 Ω.

You also should be aware that any ohm meter is not 100% accurate so please factor in the safety margin.
