I just ordered a sony 18650 vtc4 2100mAh 30A, stingray x (clone), and a veritas rda (clone). Will that battery work with a coil that is 24g at around .8 ohms? This battery thing is really confusing me

That's of course assuming that you don't have a short. All things considered, if you have a solid coil, there's hardly a better combination of gear. Your face will remain just as perfect as it is now FOREVER

Also: where on Earth did you find a VTC4? I thought they had all been bought up by now!

I agree with lighty, amazon and ebay sellers are generally not the best source for batteries. That's your best chance at getting a fake.

With that being said though, a 0.8 ohm build will only pull about 5 amps so even the shittyest 18650 battery should be ok at that load.

To get 0.8 out of 24g wire you will need a ton of wraps like a 15 wrap dual coil. If you want to stay that high, look into 26g or 27g.
A big air flow atty will want to be around 0.3 ohms or lower, a flavor atty like the magma is good 0.5 to 0.7.
So your resistance will kind of be determined by the atty you choose.

I looked more into it and i didn't realize how many fakes there are. but i saw a video by rip trippers and he made an 8 or 9 wrap coil out of 24 gauge and it was .7 ohms
