I looked for a long time for a 14500 or 14650 mechanical, and there are few to be found that fall under $100. If you factor in availability of the few on the market, it gets even tougher. I know this is not cheap and i apologize to the OP.
I had heard a few things about the Temon and checked out the MMV site. It looked like everything was out of stock as per usual, but found that they sell "blemished" units at a discounted rate and I could buy it NOW. Total after shipping was about $113 and the unit made it from Greece to my doorstep in 3 days. My blemished unit was only missing the logo/ name/ serial # engraving on the body but otherwise is literally flawless. Sent with some replacement springs and c-clip for the switch as well.
My main reason for getting the 14500 ( also a available in 14650 btw) was for low ohm coils in a pocket-sized mod. Before I dumped a huge amount of $ on a fancy RBA, I decided on the Vulcan, a DID clone, to see how it worked out. Once I got the hang of mesh and coils, this thing has been everywhere with me on a daily basis.
