Battery Safety Question

So, I'm using an RX200S with two different sets of batteries. One set is the Samsung INR 18650 - 25R, and the other set is an MXJO IMR 18650 3000mAH 3.7V 35A.

In my mod right now, I have the samsungs in right now which, when check on the device, read 3.98v, 4.07v, and 4.07v.

Using this previous post, it seems that if I'm running 120w / (3.98 + 4.07 + 4.07), I should get an amp reading of ~10w. However, when I check the data on the screen of the RX200S, it says that i have 22A and a voltage of 5.37.

I want to make sure that I'm doing calculations right and that I'm not going to destroy my batteries or my mod. Any help is greatly appreciated.

The 25R is 20A and the MXJO is most likely 20A maybe 15.
Based on my calculations you are running at around 14A at the batteries so you're fine.
The mod show the amp reading at the chip which is different then the one at the batteries.

Here is the best verifiable battery info for our purposes.

Personally I stay as far away from rewraps like mxjo and efest as I can.
I try and stick to any of the following for regulated
Sony vtc4, vtc5, vtc6
Samsung 25r, 30q
LG, hg2
For mechanical mods I use nothing but
Sony vtc5 or Samsung 25r

You do know that both 25Rs and VTC5s are just 20A so no better for that purpose then any of the other batteries you mentioned.

For mechs I would suggest LG HB2/4/6 (30A)
Or settle for 25A and higher capacity with LG HD2/2C/4 or Sony VTC5A

They are, but that's why I said personally..
Not to mention the 25r has a pulse rating of 95a at 0.5sec
And the vtc5a tends to handle heat a little better; additionally the discharge curve itself plays a roll
Tried and true cells and have been through it.
