I only have one mech mod and i love it, its a matte stainless steel nemesis. I have a very nice tax return coming and i want to treat myself to a gift. Looking for a new mechanical mod and possibly a new rba or rda. The problem is i dont know what to get. I like the bottom firing button so i want stay with that, ive always wanted a brass or copper finish. I think they look so nice and i dont mind polishing every once in a while. I almost enjoy it. I want the top contact pin to be adjustable so the atomizer will sit flush with no gap, a big concern of mine, i hate gaps! I recently came across the AR MOD by tac mods usa and i really like the looks of it because im a fan of firearms. However, i have concerns about debris getting inside with the battery because of the holes in the body and im not sure how i feel about not having a lockable switch. But the switch is recessed so i guess its not a big deal. Any advice, info, suggestions are greatly apprdciated. Please only speak from personal experience. Also fel free to give input on rba and rda's that would look nice with said mod.

Please include pictures if possible...

Thank you for your help! :2c:

So judging by the other thread youre looking for something high end correct?

May no be your style but after watching twisted's review and seeing it in hand, the V3tronix flip is the first high priced mech i could actually justify spending the money on.

V3tronix Flip - V3tronix - Advanced Vape Tech

The only knock i can find on it is the profile changes necessary to allow the mod to 'telescope' although its a much more thought out way of accommodating different batteries then most mods imo.

wow that is a beautiful mod! It looks as if they put a lot of thought and time into the design. 1 like that the positive pin is spring loaded, it makes it easy to switch out your atomizer without having to adjust the pin. It is a little more than l wanted to spend, however given the beauty and overall design, i suppose it is worth a little more.

Dunno why, but i really like Twisted's videos, you can tell he's actually excited about stuff....lol

He goes into pretty decent detail on why this mod is a winner, he liked it so much, i believe he ordered one himself (he's usually a clone guy afaik) because he uploaded a picture of his custom engraved tube the other day.

Yeah thats the video i just watched. I completly forgot about twisted's chanel. I used to watch his videos when i first made the switch to ecigs. Then i started watching grimm and rip trippers, and phil pusardos channels. Just suscribed to twisted. But back on topic, its coming down to getting the v3 flip or the black ar mod with a black patriot. I would spend the same amount of money either way. So do i either buy stealty tactical mod with a great rda together or do i devote all my money to the beautful v3 flip and not get a rda. Right now i have a trident clone, a patriot clone, and a steam turbine that was given to me (that i still havent been able to get to fire, but i have another post about that.) Yeah i could save money and not get the black patriot but if i got the black ar i would want a black atomizer to match the stealth look. Soooo what do you think i should do. I know its really my own personal preference but i just cant make up my mind!

Stingray in phantom brass from JD Tech with a Zenith RDA from Crescent Moon.

Flawless brass mech with a magnetic bottom switch and nearly zero voltage drop under a beautiful matching dripper that has welded posts with slots that lock by allen screws to make an ultra strong connection that is easy to build on, even with ribbon wire. Pic doesn't do it justice.

Well... you may be looking for just another pretty battery tube, and there are some gorgeous ones out there, but I'd thought I might suggest an LP Reo Grand along with an RM2, or a Vicious Ant Cyclone AFC, or the upcoming Origen V2 to go with it.

It offers 6ml of fresh on-demand juice. The new sub-ohm kits bring the voltage drop down to nearly nothing.

Just saying, it's hard to use anything else once you get used to enjoying a real dripper without having to drip. No tanks. No leaking. No flooding. No wonky wicking systems. No dripping.
