A guy in my area was redoing the back deck on his house, he asked a few of the local tradespeople about it and they told him the proper way to go about doing what he wanted to do. Well he kept asking until he found someone that agreed with the way he thought it should be done and went with that.While I agree I do believe sheer laziness to actually absorb and learn about mech usage is at the forefront concerning safety habits. The information is out there in abundance but how many have we seen that refuse to accept anything but the answer they want to hear.

I consider any coil below 0.25 Ohm as a safety hazard in a mech - that's is 50 W maximum power from a mech device.

Naahh... All you have to do is get infinite amp batteries. You know... The Deadpool ones. That way, you can just vape a dead short.I can't see the sense in this statement --- if you've got a good 30 amp battery, why is a 0.25 build safe but a 0.2 build a safety hazard? Or do you also suggest that using a single battery regulated mod above 50 watts is safety hazard as well?
What?I consider any coil below 0.25 Ohm as a safety hazard in a mech - that's is 50 W maximum power from a mech device.
What?
Using an Ohm's Law calculator, a 0.25 ohm coil with a fully charged battery (4.2 volts) is 70.6 watts, and has a 16.8 amp draw.
With a 0.2 ohm coil, that's 88.2 watts and a 21 amp draw. If you are using a 30 amp battery, you're within the safe operating limits of that battery. So I don't understand your math or your statement, unless that is just your personal cutoff limit in coil resistance.
Using a mech mod and not understanding how to do and interpret a simple Ohm's Law calculation is a safety hazard in general. Some people should not be using a mechanical mod for that reason alone. I have my doubts about @RayofLight62 based upon his fuzzy math.I consider not knowing what you just wrote, that is how to calculate amp and wattage draw based on resistance and battery voltage, a safety hazard in general.

I'm still vaping exactly the way I did in 2013. Tootlepuffing my Erl @ 1.0 ohms on a mech at about 17 watts. If I did get a regulated 80+ watt mod, I'd stay at about the same wattage. I do have rda's for occasional sub ohm vaping, I could see where high wattage regulated mods would be more appropriate. There wasn't all that much of that in 2013, so mechs were the way to go.
And that style of vaping satisfies you, and probably most of the adult vaping community.
Just to see if the grass was indeed more blue, I threw a high ohm build on my mech.
28g*2+38g ss316l 2.5mm ID, 6.5 wraps. Ohm's out at a "safe" 0.38 and feels like my usual builds when I need to charge the battery. If I puff long enough, I get a mildly satisfying warmish puff, but the wick starts to scorch due to too little air flow. IDK, maybe I don't know how to MTL properly.
I should have specified I use 26g kanthal wire and coil mine at 2.4mm. I would imagine if I used different wiring like yours at 1.0 ohms, I would have a different result. Seems like a lot of mass for your coil at that ohms. So maybe that kind of build needs a regulated to give it more power.And that style of vaping satisfies you, and probably most of the adult vaping community.
