Questions about Beyond Vape Neptune V2 Hybrid

Hey guys, I've been using an EVIC VTC Mini and it recently broke. I was just looking around for a new unit and found the Neptune V2 Hybrid and see that it's a "Mechanical" mod.

- What are the major differences between what I had and this Neptune?
- Are there adjustable settings or is it a fixed "mode"?
- Any pros or cons to mechanical mods as opposed to what I had?

I'm not too big on all the adjustable settings and wattage and variable temperatures and different coils and such... I just want to fill the tank up and vape! haha

Thanks,
David

1. First, mechs are not adjustable. The power it puts out is entirely dependant upon what build is in the atty that is on it.

2. If this will be your first mechanical mod, then I would not recommend a hybrid being your starter mod. Where you screw on your atty is a hole. The bottom of the 510 is directly touching your battery. If three is not a solid connection with the atty and the battery, then it can be quite dangerous.

I personally would recommend a mech mod that has a regular 510 connection that will give a safe and solid connection to your atty.

I hope that helps a bit and an glad to answer any questions I am able that your may have.

I'm not crazy, my mother had me tested.

You should stick to variable wattage mods. You won't like a mech. Tanks need variable power.

Before using a mechanical mod you NEED to thoroughly know and understand Ohm's law. The resistance of your tank is the only control on how many amps are drawn from your battery. Your battery needs to be able to provide the current based on the resistance of your atomizer. If this sounds like Greek to you, then you need to study up on Ohm's law and do not buy that mechanical mod especially a hybrid. We just want you to be safe and have an enjoyable vape, and not be a statistic. There are plenty of Ohm's law videos on youtube. Check them out.

No they don't, Tanks Vape perfectly well on Mechs.

That said the OP obviously doesn't know what they're doing.

Until you know what you're doing and have been building for a while stick with regulated mods.

I vape my Thereom exclusively on a mech. But mechs require knowledge and caution to be used safely and responsibly. There is alot of research and study to be done imho before attempting such an endeavor. Vape responsibly.

He's obviously using a coil head tank. With no control over coils or wicks, variable power is the way to go and you know it. Play lawyer ball if you want. My statement was aimed at the op and it's correct. Him and any tank he has needs variable power.

Yes he is and stock factory coils work perfectly fine (with the right one) on Mech's. I at times will put a 0.25 factory coil in my Crown and vape. Works perfectly well and is perfectly safe. I have also used a Nautilus on a Mech, again perfectly safe. As long as it's not a hybrid connection it's fine and you know it.

There is no need to spread inaccurate or misleading information.

Ok, so I left a few words out. OP- In order for a coil head tank to perform the best, adjustable power is almost always required. It'll work with fixed voltage, but more times than not you'll get a better vape when you can dial it in. The generally accepted rule is tanks with prebuilt coil heads work better with variable power. You can use a mech, but you probably won't get the performance you want and by the sound of it you're not ready for a mech. Personally, I think running any tank on a mech is not the way to go. Rda's are for mechs. Tanks need variable power boxes. Just my opinion.

The Neptune is literally a hybrid, not DtB. One can easily argue hybrids are much safer than DtB.
