Best PORTABLE Vaporizer? (Best TRULY portable vape?)

microstick and kayfun mini is a sweet setup.

Are you implying that a device is not a mechanical mod if it uses wires to pass the current rather than the body of the mod?

Because I can assure you that's still a mechanical connection. It still works exactly the same way, the ONLY difference is the shape of the conductor. Using wires rather than the body does NOT mean the device is no longer mechanical. As long as there are no added electronics then it's a mechanical device.

And I would even debate that adding electronics means a device is no longer mechanical. After all, before safe chemistry IMR batteries we were all using Protected Li-ion batteries which include a little electronics package that monitors and regulates the battery. That didn't make them non-mechanicals.


Personally, I've been kicking around the idea of making a pure carbon fiber mod a hollow tube to run a 14 gauge silver wire through. Connect the silver wire to a solid silver contact pin, use a solid silver contact pin on top, and make the 510 connector either silver plated copper or solid silver and you would have the lowest resistance mech mod on the market. And it would be the lightest and one of the strongest as well.

I suppose that depends on your definition of mechanical Fact is, everything is mechanical in some fashion or another. Personally, I don't care to have wires in my mech. Nonetheless, it was not my intention to start a debate and your post will give those that read it a chance to think about what a mech mod is, to them.

Happy vaping!

I suppose that depends on your definition of mechanical

You would need to have a pretty carefully tailored definition to say "If all of the parts are the same but the current passes through the body it's mechanical but if all of the parts are the same but the current passes through a wire it is not".

It's unregulated, there are no PCBs or other electronics inside. The button is mechanical. It's a mechanical mod. If you don't like or want wires in your mods, that's fine, but don't misinform other people by suggesting that such a mod is not mechanical.

If using a wire meant that a device was not a mechanical mod then NONE of us have mechanical mods, because we ALL use a wire to make our ecigs work. You can't have an atomizer coil without a wire.

I'll jump in on the the REO being truly mechanical. You can take out the battery and juice bottle, and run the whole mod under hot water. Shake off the water, blow through the bottle feeder tub, put the battery back in and its good to go.

I think that's what black6host was talking about.

And....?


I could take a single wire. Touch the outer ring of the topper to the top of the battery and touch the inner post of the topper to a wire leading to the bottom of the battery and fire the coil. I could do this wet or dry, or even completely submerged in water or oil. As long as the wire offers less electrical resistance than the surroundings it will work.

And I'll bet you that little Smoktek Gripper will fire under water as well.

You can't get any more mechanical than 2 wires. It requires no moving parts and no electronics to work. The button is only there to turn the current off.

And as you're holding the wire, the slight hint of burning flesh will fill the air unless you use NR-R-NR wire.

Mechanical or not is not the issue in my opinion. what some people call a mech mod is simply using the whole device as one big uninsulated wire.

You might look into a Halo G6 with mini tanks. It is cig sized pretty much (tank adds a little). Not horrible battery life and comes with a passthrough so you can charge via a usb port. If you scroll down in the article below you will get an idea of what they look like.

Not if you're using mech mods.

Nemesis with Kayfun Nano in 18350 mode is TINY. Swap out the Kayfun with a Trident RDA and you can subohm with it, which is something you cannot do with the MVP.

As I said, "if you want something super small"
I assumed that any of the 18xxx battery mods were probably larger than the OP wanted. I got the feeling OP was looking for cigalikes or something similar. I suggested the MVP only because I feel it is pocketable, despite being larger than he probably wants.

VaporShark Dna is tiny. Costs a lil more than a cigalike though. Just a thought...
