Looking to get a mech mod

Looking to get a good mech mod to run a drip setup and was wondering what's everybody running and how do they like it. I have no idea on what's good and what's not. I'm only a few weeks into vaping. I run a rdna 30 watt and bounce between my aspire nautilus and Russian 91 tanks. Picked up a drip tank today to try out and liked how it performed on the shops mech compared to my rdna. Thanks for any responses in advance and any help is greatly appreciated

Wow nobody

You will get 100 different opinions from 100 different people as to which is "the best" and what is junk. The best thing to do before dabbling into mechs is to educate yourself on them. Familiarize yourself with all of the safety issues that go along with using mechs. Then you need to figure out what you want. Are you looking to chase clouds??? Are you looking for flavor over massive vapor??? You want stealth (18350) or a baseball bat (26650)??? After you figure that out you can narrow down some of the choices.

Go to the reviews section here and read up on some mechs and drippers that have been reviewed by members. Then venture out to Youtube land and watch some video reviews. That will give you a better handle as to what is good and not. And what will fit your style of vaping.

My first mech was a manhattan clone, very straightforward, no locking ring, easy to adjust pins so attys will sit flush. See what you like the look of, read some reviews, and go from there.

I was thinking about the hcigar nemisis with the 18650. As for the dripper I picked up a brand new infinite enigma for 15 bucks at the local shop. Not looking to win comps with clouds or anything like that just something that will produce good taste and possibly vapor and still not be a piece of junk

Nemesis was my second mod, don't have an enigma. As long as they work for you, good choice.

I can't complain about the dripper but it's the only one I have ever tried. Runs off of 2 coils. Kid walked in the vape shop and was like this isn't what I wanted can you sell it for me. I asked him how much as I over heard it and talked him down to 15. Shop sells them for 33. Lol I win. And since I wanna try a mod out figured I would run the dripper on that so I'm not beating on my rdna. How do you like the nemisis do you like it better than your Manhattan? Which would you recommend to somebody looking

I like both of them, had to loctite the firing pin on the manhattan as it kept getting loose, but not having a locking ring is a plus for me, my nemesis seems to hit a little harder though.

Please read this page, for your own safety: http://www.tasteyourjuice.com/wordpress/battery-information/

That will give you a primer on battery safety. That way you won't get any battery acid or fire on your nice new jacket!

Now that that's out of the way, I'd look for a mech with copper contacts and adjustable or floating 510 pin. That will give you lower voltage drop (more power) and make sure pretty much all atties will fit. twisted420 has a cool video where he tests which mod out of his collection hits the hardest. Maybe start there! And read reviews on the specific item you're considering. Clones are made by many companies, some better than others.

Btw, a mod that "hits harder" doesn't mean it has to; Just means it can. Good luck.

How about your RDNA 30 watt ? Box vapor is hot now . Many kinds of mechanical mod .This will takes you more time . I like Maraxus mod

A good example for you. The other day at work i 'confiscated' a couple batteries from a customer before he hurt himself. This guy had only bothered to watch the "look at my huge cloud" videos and didnt pay any attention to build safety. He was running a .1 build on 15A batteries. Damaged batteries at that. He neglected to adjust the pos pin to make room for a button top and smashed the button torqueing the switch on the mod. The ring around the top was discolored on both batteries from where they had partially vented. Using 15A batteries on a build thats going to pull 40A+ can only end badly.
Before you start building learn ohms law(if you dont already)...learn it,live it,love it. Safety is paramount for yourself and the people around you.
I recently moved up to a 26650 mod just for that extra amperage the bigger batteries carry. So far its working out nicely. Once you get used to the size of the mod 18650 mods seem tiny in comparrison,almost eGo like.
And the batteries arent that much more expensive, only a buck or two more.(at my shop at least)

Out of the 20 or so I have had I am enjoying the Cartel Mod its a simple and hasn't had a snag yet

I'm finding a maraxus mod

I like the FU manhatan clone, copper with a magnetic button. But any copper clone should hit pretty well. I like angelcigs for the price. Some of their products are good, some not so much. True for most clones but if it is copper you should be alright.

Like others said though, make sure you are safe with the battery. If you're not sure, then don't go to low on the resistance.
