Can't recommend you anything as I don't use mech mod. But let me tell you a few points so that you can decide on your own.
1. What is the material of the mech mod?
Different material have different electrical conductivity. The different conductivity of metal are stated in the graph above. The better the conductivity, the lower the voltage drop and the harder the mod will hit. Some mod have full copper internal but the exterior is made of different material. In that case, look at the internal material.
Anyway, stainless steel is basically just iron with some carbon. And brass is just copper with some zinc.
What is voltage drop? Well in the most simplest term:
All electrical component in a circuit will contribute to the overall resistance, no matter how minor it is. This includes the coil where you want most of the resistance to be. But at some point of the mod (tube junction between top cap and bottom cap, battery contacts and 510 connection) there will be minor resistance. So that mean not all of the battery power will go to the coil. It will be wasted as heat along some point. That's why sometimes your switch will get hot (high resistance at switch) and why experienced vaper are using hybrid 510 connector to get direct connection to battery.
2. What is the 510 connection of the mod.
Is it a normal 510 or is it a hybrid 510? As said before, hybrid has direct connection to battery, so it will have less voltage drop but at the same time hybrid are only compatible with some atomiser. Not all atomiser will fit hybrid and the using ill fitting atomiser will result in shorting the battery.
3. Does it have a locking switch? Is the switch recessed into the mod
All these are basic safety mechanism to prevent firing of mod when you don't need it. Do you want the hassle of locking the switch or do you want the convenience (but a little less safe) recessed switch?
4. What size of battery do you want to run?
Some common sizes are the 18350, 18650 and 26650. There are more battery sizes though.
Will update more if I have any more ideas haha. But I'm not sure about the quality. Just watch some review video on the mod you want and decide.

Clear and good explanation bro karstine.

Good and important pointers for mech lovers.
You should know that you should NEVER use a RTA or RDA without a 510 pin that is able to move( totally forgot what it is),And if you intend to bring it around with you, please get one that has a locking ring, it isnt safe anywhere with you without a locking ring. If it over fires i fear for your balls(that is if you are a guy)and life.
For battery its best to go read up. There are actually quite a few websites that do talk about what type of battery to use. Just do not go over the amp your battery can take, there is another thread which talks about battery go take a look at it

Hey, thanks for the info! Will go and watch some review videos.

HAHAHA! Thanks for the balls saving tips!
recessed switch without locking ring is fine, I like my smpl (so simple they simplified the word simple)
@MVP0108 the word you're looking for is adjustable 510. As long as your positive pin is protruding is fine as well.
another thing is whether you prefer linear spring switch or magnets personally I like magnets better YMMV
edit: also have not used my spring switch fuhattan clone long enough to experience spring/connectivity problems so thats another thing to consider as well.

Thanks hahah i just forget that word at that point of time

with recessed, just have to be careful not to throw into a bag full of other stuff haha!
Praxis is not bad either. I really like the build and finish of this Praxis clone.
Due to the hybrid connector, the length is nicely reduced, giving it a sleek and discreet look.
The locking system is one of a kind. You'd need to push the button to the side before you can press it up. For a clone to work smoothly at this part, you'd need some luck though.

That's a nice mod but I only limited choices. Haha, will buy now in the future. Kena poison already!
