Finally broke down and ordered my first dripper setup...went with Tree of Life and a Magma, both hcigar clones. I don't plan on sub-ohming for now but I did do my homework. I'll be ready when the time comes..lol
First mech and dripper ordered!!

I got my first rda a few weeks ago, and just got my first mech today. I love them both already. I'm sure you will too. You know, all this time vaping and I have always heard people say how much more powerful a mech is, and how much better the vapor and flavor is, and I never really understood it... until now. *Mental Note: make lower nic juice* My head is spinning a bit already.
Ok next you need these things:
A good working knowledge of ohms law but here is a helpful tool. Ohm's law | Steam Engine | free vaping calculators
Practice battery/mod safety. Use only batteries designed for this and never exceed their amperage rating, over charge them or try to revive a dead battery with what some folks call a battery defibrillator. Screw up and you could have a bad day.
An Ohm meter you can trust. Here is an explanation of what happens with multiple coils in parallel. View attachment coilsv2.pdf
Other tools, Tweezers, maybe needle nose pliers, something to wrap the wire around I use and inexpensive metric drill bit set, flush cut wire cutters or a flat finger nail clipper, and misc. tools like small screwdrivers and Allen wrenches.
Shoot for IMO standard built coils between 5-10 wrap and with an Inside diameter between 2-3 mm.
I again caution you when building test the resistance before firing it up and use the ohm meter. If you have a short or to low a resistance you could cause a battery to vent or worse.
If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask as there are not stupid questions, except for the ones you don't ask. Feel free to PM me if you need help.

Thanks for the info...I have some VCT5s on the way too. I am going to use my MVP to check the coils for now. I plan on picking up an ohm-meter as well.
I agree on lowering the nic levels on a mechanical. I can vape juice anywhere between 10-24mg. When I got my mechanical I mixed up some 6 mg juice & 4 hits is all I can take. I have to put that bad boy down and walk away for a bit.
