UWELL Nunchaku battery help

[Theboy]

Hello, I have just brought the uwell Nunchaku mod and was wondering weather the samsung 30q battery would be sufficient enough to run it. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Moved you to batteries and Chargers from Ask The Veterans

@Theboy, you've got 80 regulated watts available in that mod. I would choose a battery that can safely handle the maximum wattage I wanted to vape at.

Check out Mooch's Recommended Batteries page and click on the chart thumbnail. The 30Q is rated at 15 amps. Have a look at the center cell in first yellow area below the battery list. 15A = approximately 45 watts max. I'm usually between 15-25 watts and 30Q are very good for me.

20A = ~60 watts, 25A = ~75W and 30A = ~90W. The 18650 batteries Mooch lists in this chart are pretty good, but certainly not all there are. For info on more batteries go to the main blog page and have a look around.

I also have some 25R which is what I use when I occasionally go up to around 40-50 watts in mech mods.

Hope that helps a bit

The 30Q is a fine choice but don't exceed 60 watts or you will prematurely wear it out or possibly damage it.
If you want to use the full 80 watts on a regular basis go with a Sony VTC5a.

Depends upon the wattage setting you plan to use. Are you using a single, dual, or triple battery mod? In the interests of keeping things simple:

-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, your 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.​

Personally I have been disappointed with the 30Q's, half way through the charge I get a weak battery message on every DNA mod (75/200). I much prefer and get better results with Sony and LG

 

[mimöschen]

I got the same drop with LGs.

I would suggest, that the problem is neither on the battery, nor on the DNA Chips, but moreover with the contact between battery and Mod.
In order to transfer high currents from a battery to the application (Mod), the contacts of the Mod must be able to "deliver" those currents further.
So if you notice, that your Mod would be warm and shows Low-battery, it can indicate, that the contact of Mod does not "sit" tight enough on the Plus-side of the battery.
In fact eCigs are the only application I saw so far, in which high currents are used, but the battery is not being soldered to the application.
