About Mech mods

How to know if its a good mod? is there a mod specially made for cc?

this is my mod

Lethal Box Mod

Made in Delrin and Australian Brass and Copper
Dual Battery 18650 ( nippleless batt )
Silver pins contact
Adjustable Positive Pin
Laser engraved Logo
Soft touch firing botton

with Samurai Bonsai rda.

is this good?

 

[MotoMudder]

Whats CC?

Cloud chasing?

 

[PauXVII]

Yes, for cloud chasing. but for personal use only, not for competitions

 

[MotoMudder]

Wait what, there are competitions? kids these days?!

But to answer your question to the best of my abilities, That Mod should do alright, although regulated Mods have come along way, and can safely produce more power than a mech, that should do just fine

Try to find some VTC4's for batteries, if chasing clouds those are one of the best.

Please don't.

Please don't take this the wrong way.
I am sincere.
After reading your other recent posts asking what "sub ohm means" etc, I strongly suggest you stay away from mechanicals until you get more acquainted with the dangers and safety of mechanical mods.

ESPECIALLY dual battery type box mods!

But why? I asked those questions for safety
should i stop using this mod? I Just bought these

I wouldn't say to stop using it, just be careful and look around ALOT before you try anything too in depth. Make sure you have a way to test the resistance of your coils before going crazy after you educate yourself a little more then go nuts. Battery safety and a little knowledge in resistance/wattage/voltage is key.

Make sure you learn and understand ohms law!

It's also important that you have batteries that are bought from known good suppliers that will not sell you counterfeits.

With mech mods your battery current draw is dependent on the ohms of your build. Let that get too high and your batts will heat up in use. Get them too hot and they will vent which can become nasty. The biggest danger is to short a battery which will cause it to vent pretty quickly. Regulated mods take care of most of these issues if you use batteries that can handle the current draw they take at max power.

Here's a great post with links to a lot of info this stuff: One Stop Shop for New and Experienced Vapers.

Best of luck with it and hope this helps a bit

Thank you nkr501,Snafuninjam and Ryedan.i'll study more about this

I've got a Samurai Bonzai, its a great RDA. IMO, its a flavor chaser, but it makes the clouds too.
I don't have a Lethal Box... I did just try to search it and came up with a triple 18650 box that looks sweet. I do have one triple 18650 box built from a Hammond box though. It's a good mod and can actually safely produce more power than a regulated mod. Just make sure you know about the batteries you are using and some basics on how the circuit works.

With an unregulated mod, it is all in the atomizer build. They way you build it makes the vape.
This is my Bonzai build:

It's not that hard to know what you are doing though.
1. get good batteries
2. understand how your unregulated mod works
3. test your atomizer builds on an accurate resistance meter

I actually think these safe practices should be something that all vapers take part in, not just mech users.

I agree. A few weeks ago someone posted about an ipv2 that a battery vented in. It was like a 5A battery being used in a 60W mod. From looking at the pics, it wasn't the mod that went haywire; it was the inappropriate battery.

OP, just learn what you need to know about how your mod works, and how to care for it. Learn Ohm's Law. Make sure you're testing your builds on a meter before and after top cap placement, and use Sony vtc4s.

If you need help with Ohm's Law, PM me. I taught math to electronics students for 19 years.

Do you understand what happens if you accidentally put in one of those batteries the wrong way?

You know, after actually seeing this, its kind of scary thinking about my local B&M selling mech mods. I bought the one I have there but already had researched extensively online and knew several others who had been using them for a while. The only warning they gave me was not to over-discharge or over-charge the battery as it could "ruin" it.. They do sell the e-fest "35A" batteries as their recommended battery .. still scary though if in the hands of someone inexperienced.

ESPECIALLY dual battery type box mods!

+1 for this. Especially dual parallel box mods, the firing pin in usually higher up at the side, and for that design to work, the whole box mod would be in contact with the negative lead always. When the atomizer's negative lead touches the box it completes the circuit and it fires.

I love my Cherry Bombers but god knows they are NOT for a novice!

Yep that too, I have nothing against that because I'm no beginner, just a heads up. Still think the higher side switch design is not a good one, top switch is a better design but for aesthetics, not quite so. Osmium mod is quite safe for a dual parallel box but damn it looks like a coffin. I'm gonna wait till a better design gets here before I get a mech box.

I don't think the Lethal Box works like that though. The battery negative is always touching the box because they are screwed in. I haven't actually tried it, but its definitely on my list of mechs to get. Its got a top mounted fire switch on the opposite side from the atomizer... kind of like a Dimitri. There are $30 clones available now. I don't have one and can't find pictures of the switch internally, but this is how I bet that it works:
The battery under the atomizer is not actually touching the connection to the 510 pin, thats why the box is a little bit higher up on that side. This battery is simply connected to the other batteries. The battery closest to the switch is just under a piece of metal that is connected to 510 pin. The switch pushes the metal down to supply 4.2 volts.
