Hey everyone. I have been thinking about a mech. I have three I am interested in for now, all clones.
I'll leave the links below, and you can tell me which you would choose and why.
Which to leave alone, and why. Thanks in advance for looking.
Stingray X Copper Style Mod (Best version from China)
Stingray Mod Stainless Steel (Best Version,magnetic switch,silver plated contacts)
GP Paps Mechanical Mod Clone - 101 Vape
$17.47 Nemesis Style Copper Mechanical Mod - 18350/18500/18650 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
$24.90 Nemesis Style Mechanical Mod (Copper) at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
These are all I have been looking at, but with all the reading I think I have confused myself.
:confused:

@icemanistheking I really don't think I owe you an explanation, but I am disabled for the most part, which means even though I served my country, and worked for a American company my income is fixed. I bet you think I'm some guy that thinks people's hard work should not be paid for, you are wrong. I was injured at work. I worked for General Motors. I still work when I can find something. Maybe I will fit in a original mod when my income allows. I'm not trying to argue with you I just don't want any trouble. I didn't know we could not choose to buy a cheap clone to try mechs to see if it's something we might like. I definitely didn't want to offend anyone. I will ask if there is anything that you may want or need to communicate with me about further that is not the topic of this post please do so in pm, so that I don't need to ask the same question because this one got off track. Thanks for respecting that.

i can offer my opinions.
the mech mod clones i own are
chi you
StingrayX
GP Paps

Hands down I recomend the GP Paps, but i've owned it less than a week haha.
with that said three days after i got it, I ordered the original GP Paps by Vapour Art.

the stingrayX is nice.. but it doesn't kick well... a lot of threads show.
The locking ring is really nice and easy to lock and, it does have the magnet switch,
but i havn't really noticed it being better than the one with springs.
it is also slightly smaller than my other mods.

The gp paps clone was so awesome it made me pull out the credit card and by the original.
the button is recessed, so you can set the mod down with out the need to lock it.
it is also easy to lock. Not as easy as the stingrayX, but it doesn't require being locked that often.

I would aslo say that the GP Paps Clone, is smoother. it's not as crunchy when threading or pressing the fire button.

The chi you clone sits in the bottom of a bag with no battery in it. Acutally i don't even think it's put together.

I bought my GP Paps Clone from fast tech.
I would easily buy it again and reccomend it to any one.

It is not as nice as the Vapour Art GP Paps,
but as far as mech clones go, It's a solid device, great form, clean look.

I have a Nemesis clone and love it. It's an Hcigar that I bought from 101vape for around 30 bucks. I also added a FatDaddy magnet kit. It really works great. The only other clone I have is the copper Vanilla mod, also from 101vape. I know it's not on your list but it is another nice clone for around 30 dollars. It seems to hit a bit harder than the Nemesis. In fact, of the two I prefer the Vanilla mod.

Ohn and I have an old stainless steel Sigelei telescope mod that I would give you if you want to try a mech. It was given to me and works pretty good, but I no longer use it. I'm in SE Michigan, so it would be no problem for me to get it to you.

Hey there

All of your selections looks pretty good, but if you're going to order from China, I would stick with Fasttech or Focalecig, just make sure items are stock, or says ships next day or it's going to be wait...and mean a real wait. I mean like the Miami Heat winning another championship wait, (still a Heat fan btw)

Besides 101vapes , you can also look at 88evape, fluidvapes, vapingwalrus, and of course e-bay for almost China prices.
