Question about Mech Mod

[jamal01]

Hi

Just had some quick questions about using a mech mod...

I got the Tesla Invader which has two 18650 batteries in parralel.

I understand this will double my amp output having two batteries, but the voltage will still be 3.6-4.2 (depending on how charged the battery is)

Sooooo...for example lets say I am lazy to rebuild and put on the nautilus with a 1.8 ohm
Usually if I vape the nautilus I like it at around 15 watts and above or below is either unsatisfactory or unpleasant. But from my calculations (unless I am missing something), on this mech mod I would be vaping at 9.8 watts

Assuming that is correct....for mech mods, higher wattage would require battery stacking (series batteries) assuming resistance is constant? [obviously not possible in this device just mean in general]

So when using a VW/VV device...how does the device pull more then 4.2v from the battery (I am by no means a battery expert so realize this may be a dumb question)


Thanks!

Vv/vw devices use a few different types of kicks or boosters to turn 3.5-4.2 volts into a different voltage. To spare details, kicks and boosters are component circuitry equivalents of electrical transformers.

If you want a warmer vape from a clearo on a mech, you'll probably want 1.2 ohm coils.

As far as doubling your current capacity, be careful if you're considering going past your one-cell current rating. Something like 1.5 times continuous discharge rating for two high-quality paired IMR batteries in parallel is likely a more true safety limit.

Yea I don't plan on exceeding 1.5 times the current of a single battery.

Thanks
