Copper Mechanical Mods (CLON

[Necrotic]

Does the vanilla mod have a floating pin?

Also, what exactly is a floating pin and adjustable? Is this the battery connection?

a floating pin is a pin that adjusts itself for battery rattle such as the stingray. An adjustable pin would be one like the nemesis where you screw an atomizer flush and then screw the pin in until it makes contact with the atomizer. A lot of mods have a floating pin but a separate part of the pin that is used to adjust for battery rattle, such as the pegasus.

Floating pins adjust for the atomizer. More often than not, a separate screw inside the pin or an insulator inside the bottom switch must still be adjusted for battery rattle.

I loved my Ehpro Stingray copper clone until I got the Ehpro New Yorker (manhattan clone). While the Stingray did have the floating contact and a decent button, the New Yorker hits a lot harder. The paint on the stingray did come off over time, but the remaining paint will make a great pattern for a force patina. I may also try the fatdaddy magnet upgrade for the stingray, and I have seen some copper parts to replace the stainless steel ones in the stingray firing button.

I own 5 copper mods: Pegasus, 4Nine, SMPL, Paragon and XXIX.

Out of these, the one which gets by far the most use is the XXIX. Its small, very well made and has a magnetic switch which is easily the nicest switch on any mod I have used.

I'm tempted to buy another XXIX since I like it so much but have just ordered a Sigelei 100w so will wait to see how much use that gets first.

...but I digress. The XXIX is simply outstanding, the best performing mech I have used so far.

I know you're talking about copper mods but I do gotta mention the EHPro Cronus clone. It's an awesome mech with a super buttery smooth throw. Telescoping and you don't have to mess around with adjusting the 510 pin. Just mentioning it because it's such an awesome clone. Superior quality.

definitely i have my cronus clone superb!! i love it!!

Copper is to soft a metal, and they don't hold up over time. So they're nice when they are new ... become junk with age.

I'll take durability over 0.01v every time.

If polished regularly and not dropped, they can stay good as new forever. Copper mods are more for the enthusiasts though. Someone who doesn't really care to maintain a collection of mods and treat their gear as jewelry might as well not be looking at mech mods to begin with... but yes, a steel mod is not going to damage quite as much when it hits the ground.

My only copper mod is an Infinite Cartel. Really like the how it looks and performs. With the wall thickness, if you drop it, be sure to move your foot.

If it is your first mech, them I would go for any one of the Hcigar nemesis clones. you can get on for 30 to 40 bucks. Believe me there is a difference in clones, and hcigar delivers the best. The copper does require maintenance or your hand will eventually become discolored. Stay away from the 4nine, its really not for everyone. I have a xxix and it is a hybrid style mod that's a lot more user friendly then my 4nine, but my Hcigar Nemesis is my right hand mod. The Nemesis is really easy to use, and I like it because it never misfires, and adjusts easily. If there is any flaw is that it is really common, but that's because its just an awesome mod.

I got my xxix about 3 weeks ago, and I just absolutely love it. Do you know of any good drippers with adjustable contact pins, or large ones that are worry free on the hybrid? I have a 454 and a tobh, want something else. Pictures never show that feature while shopping around

I keep the Cartel in 18350 all the time and it's still nice and heavy. Watch those toes lol

Here's my all copper Panzer clone with a Zenith v2 from Fastech. Thing hits like a tank!!! I have an all copper Big Block 454 also but find myself always going back to the Zenith. Perfect combo!

5th week no analogs

I've got a stingray x 18650 and misplaced the bottom contact pin that screws into the base of the switch. Desperately looking to find a replacement switch or even the contact pin on its own but every site I go to doesnt ship to the uk(London) I ordered a magnet and contact pin kit from

I fear that if I go another couple days without vaping I'm might go back to the icky sticks which is the last thing I want.

You could just get another stingray x clone and then will have parts to interchange. Its not like you need to go buy a $300 authentic stingray. Or, you could just get a different clone mod, there are many many clones available now that I would choose over a stingray x.

I'm still very new, so by all means take anything I say with a grain of salt, but I love my Vapor Tech Hollow Bone, not a clone. It can be had for 70 dollars and I believe one of the retailers is doing a 25% off coupon for black Friday. I'm not sure if I can post a link as I'm still learning the rules of the forum, so feel free to PM is you are interested.

If you like the bulky look Cartel is perfect and from HCigar or Infinite are genuine 1:1 clones...
I had one but I felt it didn't fit well in my hand so I've sold it, otherwise was perfect and hit like a train
