Best mech mod clone

[amagos]

I'm currently looking to get a clone mech mod, and i'm looking for one that hits the hardest.

I'm from Cyprus, Europe and it's hard to find an authentic mech mod in a good price. If i buy one outside the EU, the import taxes will be huge. So, i'm going for a clone.

I'd appreciate if you know a good EU site with good prices on mech mods.

It's NOT really the BRAND of mod that will matter as much as what the mod is made FROM.
Even a high dollar Authentic stainless or aluminum mod can have lower performance than a cheap clone made of Copper.

Penny Copper Clone. They are reasonably cheap and hit hard!

Stingray X by Infinite - fires every single time, floating 510 top pin, magnetic switch.

I have four mechs to my name, but the Infinite SXK (same thing) is hands down, my favorite.

Never ordered from these guys, but $49.99 is a leeetle high (I paid 39.99) It's getting harder and harder to find this mech

I looked all over the place, but I can't find an EU vendor that carries them. Maybe try Alibaba?

No offense, but I disagree. I've had no-name cloned mechs that wound up being PIF'd because the firing button wasn't firing for %$#, the firing button was getting hot, what else...oh! The battery was too big (a standard 18650) for the bottom part of the mech!

IMHO, Infinite and hCigar make excellent clones that don't break the bank. Under $50 and I've never wanted to get rid of them after the first week.

My comment is about Mechanical Mods only....

Funny thing that all the Issues you say are about CLONES, I have seen in authentic mods. The difference is the issues are more Likely to be due to manufacturing quality and fit, when dealing with a $20 clone, and poor maintenance and design with the authentic. Yeah add poor maintenance and bad practices to the clone and you get real issues.

Me I assume the $20 clone of a $200 item might need some TLC prior to use... After-all when you copy a bad design, you get a worse results, rarely is a clone an improvement. And when you are paying about 1/10 the price, I would expect less quality. Thing is the fixes are mostly easy and cheap if not free.

My comment was about mechanicals only, too, 93GC. Honestly, I can't truly compare any authentic to a clone because I've never owned an authentic. But I've never had a problem with any of the Hcigar or Infinite clones.

I have a crap load of mechs. My hardest hitting mech is the Copper Chi You clone. I bought it May 14'. I bought the Fat Daddy contacts for it. Pisses me off that it hits better than my authentic mechs Lol
