my best was an authentic overdose mod by MCV, I picked it up from hyperion vape for 35$
I'll look into it......If MCR lasts much longer I always liked the MCR 101 ....I don't own alot of mods so I don't mind paying a little more for the few I own.

that is sexy !!
hows the button
never tried one....but it's supposed to be very good....I actually was trying to buy one,but they were out of stock and the owner was in the hospital, the wait time was too long so I got the GP instead....the owner of GP Perseus is so much more helpfull than MCR was they have a reputation of not the best customer service....I found out.

ehhh still would love a paps g4
yeah if you get a chance grab one...the button is just killer....it won't take anything below like .6 without the button getting hot though......it's only drawback...and the locking ring is just great.like half a twist and it's locked.

oh shit! I didn't realize that. I rarely go above a 0.4 and I'm usually down around 0.2 if I'm using an rda
then the PAPs v4 is not the mod for you...I don't know maybe I did something stupid and shorted the atty but I'm pretty sure I didn't ..I vaped on it at like .4 and the button got hot.I believe Persus even writes on his website that the PAPs v4 is not for sub ohm vaping.and should be vaped at like 1 ohm...I generally vape it at like.7to .8 to 1 ohm........and you wanted a genny?

yeah its the one thing I haven't fully explored.
I do still use some mtl gear around 0.6-1ohm but always on a reglated. I use the mechmods for when I build low
Well, ya know GP has been around a long time and they started building mods in the days when .8 was considered sub ohm vaping....but double check me and go onto their websites and look at the v4 I'm pretty sure he wrote that the v4 was not designed for sub ohming. that's the great thing about ruining your health through decades of smoking you consider .8 a restricted lung hit......something like .2 is like burying my face above sauna rocks.....I mean I enjoy pain as well as the next guy but the fun spanky spanky kind.not the scorched lungs kind.

I love my GP gear. I dont have a V4 , but do have a couple of the V4 switches. Kinda dumb in hindsight, could have bought a whole V4 for what I paid for the pair of switches. DOH !!!! I love the old PAPs 2.5 switches the best, I know...... im a weirdo.
I also adore my MCRs but prefer the OG or older style switchs. I do like the "flush switch" but like being able to lock it for sure if needed.
I love to mix and match parts so I mix up my GP, GUS, and JM tubes with the switch that suits my mood for the day.
Only con for the MCRs is that their threading is not compatible with any other manufacturers so cant play with custom looks.
I have the SS and Hiduron combo like in the photo pulsevape posted in the 20mm. Love the Hiduron ( copper/ nickel ) alloy, its not as yellow as brass, it beautiful.
MCR 101SL ( 22mm ) with their 303 Genny ( my only Genesis, its so flavorful.
JM mods and GUS combo topped with Origen
JM - Paps V4 switch
Paps V2.5
Super T ELA Not a high power device, but still love it.
Last photo, sorry, I do get quite nuts over tube mechs

I really love your tastes in mods...I really like those JM tubes....so I can put my GP v4 switch on a JM 22mm tube?.....but the mcr 303 is not one of the better gennys I've tried.I love my GP gear.

Unfortunately it looks like JM doesn't make tube mods anymore.

Yeap, JM dropped their tube line a while ago, sad really but Im glad I was able to get a couple. They are not the most attentive when it comes to after care. They do not pay attention to their emails and had to go and be a pest on their FB page to get any assistance. Seems the actual modder is a control freak and at least a while ago, was basically the only person running , and manufacturing, so he is kinda busy. He has an assistant that takes care of the FB page and he is not the most knowledgeable, I guess they are not paying attention to their non- box customers.
Funny about the MCR genny, I found out its supposedly not the easiest, but I really had no problems, except figuring out that just right mesh for my all VG liquids, which I got right pretty quick. I love it, I got a second one , but dont use it.
Thank you for the compliment, Love tube mechs. Im trying to slim down the collection, but its really hard .
well that Oros II arrived.....I don't know what to say about it quite yet except I could club baby seals with the thing ....it's heavy...It doesn't hit as hard as my hybrid, but I really like the way it hits....like there's no ramp up time...it's built like a tank.makes my PAPs look like a feather.

just saw Beyond Vape will have the Arias Oros v2 in stock pretty soon. I'm hoping they get some with blemishes so I can take advantage.
I already placed an order for the Beacon, mostly because of size. I thought about getting the Sage but it's a bit too big for my taste. I initially
started this thread wanting something that was a bit stealth. I'm looking forward to receiving my first mech, will be ordering the Oros in the
next few weeks if the price drops a bit more. Btw, I was looking into getting the Serpent mini tank for my Beacon but am reading around that
tanks aren't all that safe to use with mech mods, am I missing something? I thought so long as the 510 pin was adjustable on the top cap of
my mech I would have no issues.

The Sage, it's "alright", good for the price and the button is very nice. But for me I don't really like the looks all that well. Don't get me wrong, good Tube Mod but I wouldn't have got it if it wasn't on sale.
The Oros V2, it's my favorite 18650 tube Mod, I really do love it. IMO it's worth getting the "non" blemished one. Excellent ergonomics, excellent machining, hits wonderfully. I really do love that mod.
