Vaporsmith reacted to Compenstine in Sub Ohming has gotten ridiculous.
Not using the right batteries could also be catastrophic. If your battery is not a quality high amp battery it could become a run away very quickly. Some will turn your MOD into a pipe bomb if the venting is blocked or not enough venting is present. I had a LG battery get very hot after only a few draws of a .5 ohm build. They work great in my VAMO, but not good for sub ohming. Best approach is do your homework and don't just take battery safety for granted.

Vaporsmith got a reaction from Mtdobies in Sub Ohming has gotten ridiculous.
The insane prizes at cloud competitions makes the 0.08ohm build real worth it to me. Been vaping for YEARS sub ohm, not one battery venting issue. I have never heard of a battery venting from anyone in my circle who consistantly vape at 0.1 - 0.05 I have never ran across a legitimately confirmed story of it either. I'm sure there is risk, but there is risk in every day activities like driving or sailing. Risk and reward, people weight that themselves.
(I'm referring to batteries venting off a normal hit, not button sticking or anything.)

Vaporsmith got a reaction from Mtdobies in Sad day, terrible choice.
In a bind I recommend getting some 50/50 juice at twice your normal preferred nicotine and then adding vg. I usually double it with vg and since it has that pg kick to it the flavor still cuts through. Just shake it up good. I had 15ml bottles come out to $2 each last time. They vaped great.

Vaporsmith got a reaction from robv1978 in help me reach 2.0 ohms
Twisting wire basically cuts your ohms in half, if you want 2.0ohms you will need to just use regular single strand kanthal. A technique I find without having to waste wire is to just put the leads in the posts with some slack, ohm check, as soon as you get it to 2.0ohms you cut the excess on the leads and all you have to do is fit the length of the slack into whatever coil you are wrapping. I hope that makes sense.

It would need to be even smaller gauge wire so that it fits into the KPT dual coil, not even an RDA or RBA or RTA.

Vaporsmith got a reaction from Jeffb in Why 60 amp batteries are pointless.
I was just pointing out the math, it's totally fine to draw 18.5 amps with a 20+ amp battery, but to say a 60 amp battery does anything is ridiculous. Unless you are somehow pulling 60 amps (0.061 ohms.)
I would hate to see anyone pay $20 for a battery that literally does nothing to enhance your vape.

Vaporsmith got a reaction from Mtdobies in help me out here (newbie)
I just don't like the "hit or miss" factor with mod and rda quality. It could be an Infinite/HCigar grade clone, or completely worthless. I just stay safe and find the Infinite version of anything if I'm going the clone route. I don't know though, I hear mixed reviews on fasttech.
