First time using mech mod

[RAPTOREX]

So up my ohms and use higher amp batteries

Start high and move down as you gain both experience and confidence. Remember there's a trade off between amps and capacity. Whilst a 20s may give you the hardest hit, initially. A 26A Molicell with give you higher amps after the first 20 puffs, and last noticeably longer.

30T is 35A. 40T is 25A & P26A is 30A. All the info is on either Fogstar/18650.co.uk website or Moochs blog & YT videos

The 26A is listed as 25A by both Fogstar and Mooch.

Hi @Dai1510 , welcome to the world of mechs. For your consideration, a single cell mech works a lot better with low density coils, that it to say, something like 24awg brochrome or similar flatwire would be a lot more responsive than complex coils.

If I do a .15 build but use a 35 amp battery that would be fine

Put the numbers into steamengine for the answer. It will help you understand the relationship of resistance to amp load. Not trying to be rude but none of us learnt by getting the answer from somebody else.

I've put 0.15 ohms and 4.2 volts representing a full battery and it says 28 amps at 117 watts, so a 35 amp battery would be fine with plenty of headroom

@Dai1510 this is something not to overlook or you might end up with very long ramp up times.

Where are you going to find a 35A 18650?

Mod takes 21700 & he's already asked & been told which batteries are recommended.

I know I can't use 18650's for 35 amps, so I'll use 21700, and ive ordered Samsung 30t 35 amps
