I have been using my tfv8 baby beast mini (22mm) with the new mesh coils by smok. the mod states it only fires down to .2 ohm, but the coils are reading at .19 ohm. I have been using it at 40 watts and it is working amazing, however i am wondering if this is safe? can anyone advise me whether or not this is safe or if i am putting my mod at risk for failure? I am a noob to mods

The build and wattage are safe. However, the mod shouldn't be allowing you to fire. So using a broken mod may not be safe.
why would you assert that the mod is broken? its brand new
He is saying it may be broken because you should of got a Low resistance warning or it shouldn't of worked. According to specs you need a min of a 0.2 ohm coil. With it being 0.19 it must be close enough the mod is letting it pass. I wouldn't go lower even if it did let you fire it.

Yes, that is what I was saying. So if your regulated mod is not being regulated by the circuit board. Then what exactly is it doing? It might be a brand new mod but it could be a lemon.
I would stop using it immediately. I believe most battery failures and explosions are due to short circuits. Like when a hybrid mechanical mods isn't making a solid connection from atomizer to battery. It can short out.
Would you rather throw out a brand new mod? Or have a nice fat facial reconstruction medical bill. No joke. It's just my words of precaution.

When a mod says the lowest resistance is .2 it still may go down to 0.18 or so.
Especially these smok mods with smok tanks and smok coils.
it's probably just a firmware glitch or something.
If you were saying it was firing at 0.1 then i'd say it was broken but a 0.01 difference is nothing.
My ohms fluctuate .02 or so just when my RTA warms up.

I just wonder why no search has done on forum before posting.
Even its a little bit weird that senior moderator @5150sick hasn't check threads
Anyway please see same question by me and official answer by COV on below link mate

I didn't even catch the name of the mod in the title
Regulated mods do a decent job of not letting the user do something too stupid.
Thanks for the heads up and the useful info.I just wonder why no search has done on forum before posting.
