Hi guys
So im feeling the need to move on to a Mech, Been reg Vaping for quite a while now, tired of Regs and leaky tanks and ive learnt whats safe and whats not regarding battery safety and building appropriatley for gear im using.
My question is this, i really prefer a lot of Tube Mechs, my problem is i fractured some bones in my hand a couple year back and i suffer from really bad arthritis and the pain is bad somedays, i have limited use of fingers and thumb i would use to fire the bottom button and the way i would have to bend fingers to do so would cause pain, is there ANY tube mods available that actually do have a side button rather than the classic bottom button???, or am i only going to find this on a mech box mod.?
Any advice appreciated and a pic if possible if anybody knows of a mod like this.
Thanks in advance.

I've seen quite a few mods that are basically a tube mod with a grip and switch built around the tube, or one end of the tube. I don't know of any straight tube mods though with a side fire button.

So far ive found 1, the silver bullet. Im assuming there must be more that are designed ergonomically

yeah what we called pinkie switches..the GGTS, the 69 by atmoxmiani, and for cheap the Natural by smok.The Electric Angel....you could fire the switch with your pinkie finger...my first mech was the Natural and had a pinkie switch...took me awhile to come over to the conventional bottom button mods.

Yer its just the problem with my hand that stops me getting a bottom button, more pain than its worth i think, but thanks for naming a few i will google them

i Looked at a Noisey cricket, i seen a deal with discount that could get me it for a Fiver in the uk, i know they are cheap anyway, but people keep warning me off, is there a problem with that particular mod?

I love my Noisy Cricket V1 but it does leave a lot of room for user error. Button, top cap and battery jumper can all give you scary problems if you are not 100% vigilant.
I would recommend looking for a Noisy Cricket V2, it's much more versatile and much safer and a great mod.
