Pegasus 70w mod problem

Suicide

hi , i have an pegasus 70w mod , the battery is an 18650 samsung -25r 20amp (green one ) , rda little boy .... i never get the full power , i calculated the watts with diferent coils and i get maximum 50 watts even if i set the mod at 70 w.....
I heared that i need to use a 35 - 40 amps battery ... its that true ?

You may be experiencing the "Stepdown Protection" feature on the Pegasus mod. You may indeed have to go to a higher amp battery for your needs. See this excerpt from the owners manual:

yeah ... it might be the battery .... but i think its strange .... im new in mods and batterys and things like that but i know that a 20 am battery should suport 70 watt .... or the mod use some of the amps for his hardware ?

@suicide What are your coils resistances ?

At 70 W with a charged battery, you will need about 19 A so the Samsung 25R should do, unless it is not so recent ... ?

Suicide

@Cegoca i dont know if it is original or if is old... i think it is
if the battery is ok ... my theory is that the mod use some of the power to power himself .... i dnt really know , but if its true it need too mutch power and i dont like this :( , and it discharge preatty fast
Now the mod is almoast fully charged
set to : 70 watt
voltage : 3.16
resistence : 0.25
so the real wattage is 40 watt and drains 12 amps or so... with a full f***** battery

If you are not sure how old your battery is or here it came from and what it's history is; you better buy a new one (A>=20).
Plain security reason.
(and never use a mod at it's maximum).

Suicide

@Cegoca , why not to use the mod at max ?

Cegoca

Never push anything to it's maximum ... just a rule to spare your material.
