If you are including Vamo's and the like in "mechanicals" you probably need to do a little more reading first. .... just sayin'
That said, this is the best mechanical for a good price that I've tried.

Well, at least 1 of the mods you listed is an actual mech mod.
But if you think a Vamo 5 is a mech mod then you've got a LOT more research to do. (Hint: If it has more than 1 button or electronics of any kind built in, it's not a mech mod.)
Bearing in mind that mechanical mods require a bit more than basic knowledge, I'd recommend a Reo grand. They are bottom fed so it will run an RDA without the need to drip.
Thanks for keeping me in check! I have been vaping for close to 6 months now and have got me aerotank to produce some great value by drilling 1/16" hole over 2 of the 3 stock ones. I have eben rebuilt my atoms with thicker gauge and use cotton wick. But now I am just trying to humbly move up to the drip top with something that holds an 18650 or (2) 18350. So mech mods are bottom firing? And the others are button style?
The Caravela clone looks nice, but as far as attaching a tank or drip, any recommendations in a complete setup? I am trying to get my info before I buy so I get what I want the first time. I have smoked for over 25 years before I started vaping...can't believe how easy it was once I got the right one....with a few tweeks tho....haha

If you do buy a mechanical mod, do not, under any circumstances, stack batteries!
thanks! good to know. I always say it is better to ask then not know. Rock Out withch Vape Out!
I guess I should ask my question a little better. I am looking to buy a MOD that I can use for regular tank use as well as RDA. I do not mind rebuilding when the time comes. I actually enjoy the build time. My wife tells me already that I am obsessed with it when she sees me rebuild my little atoms already. You know you have a passion for something when your little 6 year old girl brings you 3 white pieces of yarn wrapped by black yarn in the middle and says " daddy, I made you one too"....gotta love it...
Anyway, I just figured the VV/VW would be a suitable fit that I could use with my existing tanks and swap out and put a RDA on as well. Is that something of the norm or is it one or the other?

A great mechanical mod to have is the cronus clone mod by EHpro... roughly about 50 bucks, it even has the nickel plated contacts and it hits hard. Harder than the Magneto and the kamry. It's all dependent on your build though. Be safe and research your batteries though.

I found the Cronus Mod, Helios Dripping Atom, battery and charger for around $80. The Caravela is nice looking too......Can you put an Aerotank or ViviNova on these guys if you want to tank vape?
sony 30 amp are hard to beat. the new vct5 series @2600 MAH are what i use in my mech's for dripping.
if you want to switch toppers the top of your mod will need air flow channels as opposed to being flat for a flush appearance for dripping atomizers.
I started using machnical mods long before there were RDA's, sub ohm vaping, or all the fancy batteries we have to choose from now. In fact the first commercially available "mod" was a mechanical. I really can't think of a type of topper that I haven't used on a mechnical.
I think the v2 sentinel with trident clones works well and scores high in the looks dept
Along with mechanicals you might also consider a DNA 30 device which would give you regulated and relatively safe low\subohming at pretty high power. I'm not sure you can get any of them for under 200, but I don't think any of them are up to 300.
That depends on what you intend to do with your mechanical PV.
I do not do sub ohm, so everything that I use is in the 2-3 Amp range. This allows me to consider other factors when choosing batteries.
For example here are 6 PV's all using the same AW IMR 18490 (16 amp) battery.
AND, 5 of the 6 are mechanicals.
