Offering up a copper Nemesis as proof that clones sometimes outperform originals is not a valid argument. There is no copper authentic Nemesis. All copper Nemis are clones. Will a copper Nemi clone outperform a stainless or brass Nemi? Maybe. Copper is a better conductor than brass or stainless.
I missed your point.....and you may have also missed mine.
I may have worded my statement improperly.
The copper hcigar Nemmy has lower voltage drop than any authentic mech I can think of.
My point: buying an authentic mod will not always guarantee you better performance than a $26 clone.
