Don't quote me on this, because I am looking threw websites as I am writing this but I believe that part of the chipset is you can use it in an unregulated mode like a mech mod. Also, 40 amps is the max input it can handle...it doesn't mean you have to push it that hard. To get a 40 amp draw at 150 watts you'd have to build like a .095 coil. The beauty of these regulated high wattage box mods is you can build at a higher resistance and still get the high wattage out of them. If you just do straight ohm's law math then a .326 ohm coil would draw 21.43 amps and that makes it possible to run that with a pair of Samsung 20R batteries....true, you're pushing them to their max but it's still possible. And I know with regulated mods there is the variance of amps drawn vs. amps output...it was just a crude, quick example. A .25 build running at 100 watts is around the 20 amp mark and that, for me, is more than enough power to fry my lungs
I am not trying to start an argument about batteries, and everyone that has read my posts knows I am huge on battery safety and had my share of shorts and scares...but...that being said....20 amp continuous batteries should power most peoples wattage needs and builds without a problem for the time being. I still am an old school mech user...every time I go to buy a regulated mod like a Segelei I some how end up with another mech
(do'h) But even so, I never build below .25...not because I am scared of pushing my VTC batteries to their 30 amp limits...but because I am personally happy vaping at 40-60 watts. And honestly, I think that is plenty of power for a newer vaper. Including myself and the few I've managed to convert to vaping over the last couple years I haven't seen anyone take a hit off one of my 50 watt builds for the first time that didn't choke
The setup you got
@Kellie should be more than enough to keep you happy and satisfy your vaping needs for the time being and for awhile...and depending on what gauge of wire you have will determine what you build your resistance at. And if and when you're ready to go past the 100 watt mark there will be VTC batteries there to buy and hopefully this year we will finally get more battery makers that are not scared of their product being used for vaping and start putting out higher amp limit batteries again like the old samsung 15m's, AW's old 1600 mah 24amp 18650 which was and is a great battery, and the famous VTC4's.
Hope you enjoy your new set up, and as always....happy vaping!
