C rating- This is the maximum sustained (not burst) output of a battery. It requires only knowing the mah rating of the battery and it's value to calculate. Will give you an example using a few different batteries-

Batt A- 1600mah, 15C= 24 amps
Batt B- 2800mah, 2C= 5.6 amps
Batt C- 3100mah, 2C= 6.2 amps
So sustained would be if you just continuously had the fire button pushed, yes? As long as we are talking taking a hit, then letting go of the button and letting it sit for a minute, you can calculate using the max amp rating for your battery?

The reason I am asking is because I am vaping a .485 ohm coil right now using AW IMR 18650 2000mah 10A (5C) batt. At 7-8 amps output, it's perfectly safe if I refer to the 10A rating, but not safe if I'm referencing the 5C (sustained output)...?

That's true, but I'd rather be on the safer side.

I hear you loud and clear man, my budget didn't permit when they had them in stock...just seemed like a way to get 25 more dollars as is. Everyone would order a flat...he was "smart" on that one...

Kinda jenky he didn't at least bring like 100 of them to VolVapor...

the MNKE is down to 3.7 volts from a fresh charge after about 2-3 hours of heavy vaping using a dual coil .8 ribbon 0.3ohm build....does that sound right? when do u recharge? 3.7?
It depends on which mech I'm using. I can vape to 3.4 on my Cronus. My Nzonic starts to get harsh at 3.7 volts. 2-3 hrs is about right.

i wanna take better care of the 2 new batts i got today....they are just for the trident 0.3ohm build...
should i wait before charging after vaping or it doesnt matter and i can just throw it on the charger and then back into the mod, cycling through both MNKE and AW 4.2-3.7 then recharge?

I usually don't use them until they cool down.
