So I have a Stillare V3 coming (should be here tomorrow), and I have some questions about it.

First what does everyone (or anyone) Think about this rda?

Second, I have 22g silver wire (used for jewelry wrapping) and I know it the gauge is too big to use on my mod due to the extremely low ohms, but what about with the Stillare? Will adding that third coil increase the ohms so I can use it on my crappy batteries?

I know what type of wire you use, Why wouldn't I be able to use silver? The batteries I have are Kamry brand, they came with my K100. One is 18650(2000mah) and the other is 18350 (900 mah). I'm guessing both are 10 amp

Guessing your batteries safe continuous amp discharge limit is not a good way to start with an RDA. I would highly recommend you get yourself a good quality IMR or hybrid battery (like a Samsung 25R, Sony VTC4 or 5 or an AW 18650 20amp) The batteries you have might be OK in a regulated mod but I wouldn't put them anywhere near a mechanical.

As for the 18350, that goes double for that. Highest rated 18350 that I know are the purple Efest 10.5amps and the AW 18350 12 amp

Knowing and understanding ohms law is important as is how to calculate the discharge of your build and make sure it fits inside the limits of your battery. Use an ohm meter and or a DMM to measure the resistance of your coils - consider using a coil calculator like Steam Engine | free vaping calculators

We're all just trying to help, not judge or tell you you are wrong, but I've never seen anyone use silver wire in their builds simply because the inherent resistance of the wire is so low.

This is the specs for the batteries:
Kamry IMR 3.7V Rechargeable UnProtected Batteries
High Energy Density, Green Energy, No Memory Effect, Low Discharging Rate
6am Max Continous Discharge Rate
4.2v Max Charging Rate
Li-Ion IMR

I believe the guy at the vape shop set me up with .65 ohm dual coils

Is this safe?

Pretty well known name in rda's.

2:
silver wire.
Silver is well known for high conductivity.
It is totally unsuitable for use in vaping.
Plus it's probably insanely expensive compared to just getting a 100 foot roll of kanthal off ebay from Temco.
