Question About Limitless Mod

[b0sslady]

Does anyone know what the lowest ohms you can build on the Limitless mod?

I have a dual build clocking in at 0.13 ohms & I noticed that my mod gets warm (not hot).

The build is a clapton 32/24 parallel with 24.

I have a 100% authentic Sony VTC5 for the battery.

Too low as it is.
What you are getting Joule heating and pushing your battery into pulse not really what it is designed for.

Can you elaborate?

 

[b0sslady]

Ahh never mind. I re-read up on my battery again & now realize that I can probably push 0.14 ohms on a freshly charged battery. Except now I have to factor voltage drop at the same time. I'm thinking a safe vape no lower than 0.18 is good. Seeing that the Limitless is a direct atty to battery mod there's not a big voltage drop when I checked it out.

If, and I mean IF, you have a genuine 35A battery, 0.14ohms is OK. If you have a shitty re-wrap that is marked 30A or 35A, it is not OK. You have not mentioned what battery you have, so until you do we cannot answer your question accurately. If your battery is not a Sony, Samsung, LG or I forgot what the 4th brand is, it is most likely not safe for that low of a build.

I did mention in my post that I have a genuine Sony VTC5. It's from Illumn which is a reputable site. It's the only place that I know of that carry what's left of the genuine ones.

Oh I apologize I did not see that at first.

Lol no problem. So as you said 0.14 would be ok?

 

[Bean8379]

It is a 30A battery, at .14 you're at its absolute limit, approaching pulse discharge territory. I agree with big nasty. Too low of a build.

 

[Bean8379]

.14 would be OK on a 35A battery, on a 30A battery you're hitting its limit and you can easily damage it.

I'll choose to stay safe & build higher. Thanks!

Wise choice my friend. See, the amp limit of a battery only works as the safety feature it is intended to be if you stay below that limit. Batteries have a maximum amount they can discharge, but they are not designed to be taken to that limit all the time. Not only does it reduce their capacity dramatically, it can damage the cell and limit the life of the battery severely not to mention the danger of the battery exploding.

Remember it's a hybrid mod

A face full of hot lipo acid is I would say worse.
Most people are going to not remember lithium + water = FIRE!!
I would almost rather a mod take my face off in an explosion vs. time in a burn unit from acid and flame.

Same concept as running your V8 motor at 7000 rpm's for too long. Eventually you will blow the motor.
