I have the Nzonic V1. No spring. Works with a magnetic switch. This one is more classy though..Nzonic - Brass Accent by Madz Modz - Full Mech - Mod Kits - MODS & Batteries

I spend a lot of time on myvape and I'm curious what shipping would be. They say if you use Jagger it's 50% cheaper, but cheaper than what? I'm also surprised that they are always sold out of the launcher V2 but I can't even give mine away it seems! maybe it's just more popular on that side of the world.

In mod trader there are soo many high end mods for sale second hand.


Sent from my iPhone

"page isn't available" for themodtrader which is what everyone pointed to on Google and Facebook, strange. Bummer ... CV is insane pricing so they are out, plus most won't ship outside of Cali.

I'm still scratching my head in awe that I was able to pull this off but I was able to trade/buy a Nzonic V3 and Astro by Kato, both going in priority mail today. I sold my Launcher which I didn't care for the design, and traded my P+ 18500 which I didn't care for the tapered bottom and threw in some cash. Overall I got twice what I wanted spending less than I had expected so I am very happy thus far. I made a deal with myself that I can buy 3 more in the same price range once I am able to save some more money. After doing a LOT of research since starting this thread I have narrowed it down to these 4 and will have to eliminate 1 of them:

1. Nemesis - Kalafan or VW preferred
2. GP Paps - 2.5 SS or Lux 350/500
3. Bagga - 1.5 LE preferred or V2
4. Pulse - 350/500

After these I hope to be good for a long while. I have bought/traded/sold a ton of mods and am tired. I want 5 good quality mods that will last, are attractive, and perform well. I do have to admit though i cannot stop thinking about that Smok Magneto, I'm thinking great pocket and carry mod.

I have decided I gotta pull the trigger eventually so here are my final 3 selections in the $200 ball park and I would truly appreciate any feedback ... or maybe one I am missing. Poldiac was my 4th. Thanks!

Super-T ELA (I have a P+ 18500 already)
Astro by Kato
Nemesis

Well, I have to say that having a number of high end mods in this class, I would have to go with the Nemesis, its at the top of my list for new mods. The astro is nice, but the lockring mechanism for the button is easily the trashiest thing ive seen on a mod over $150, its rough and uncompromising although it does work. The Super T ELA is nice all around but cant touch the Nemesis in terms of total build quality.

The Button, lockring, extra parts and build quality of the Nemesis put it into the category of some of the nicest mods I have had the opportunity to lay my hands on, which is lots. Im a fan of the GGTS but just like the pinoy mods more for their availability over the Euro mods.

Get a Nemesis, slap a Kayfun on the top and call it a day I say lol. That there would be one of the ultimate machines in my opinion.

Sweet! I agree a Nemesis kalafan or VW with a Kayfun would certainly be a dream machine. Wish I had known about that lock. If you don't mind will you PM me more about it? I appreciate it. Worst case I have to sell it and wait for a Nemesis. I already have someone who said they will let me know if they are gonna sell their matte when their VW comes in.

At the end of the day, invest in the Kayfun... best damn purchase I've made. For the Astro, got it today. I think I cut my teeth too much on modding out Sigeleis or something, because the first thing I do with any equipment I get is to tear it apart, clean, buff etc, apply noalox on threads and tasty bits, then throw it together to use. All threading right not, buttery, like a hydraulic lift... is it the best switch, lock.. nope, but one hell of a design all together. (And frankly, I think I'm buying mech now more for the engineering and craftsmanship then the vape.. grin.. I'm anxious to get my mitts on that lux swtich.
