How will vapor outfit differ from a mechanical mod and a ego-esque model

[ilych]

So, I was at my local brick and mortar ecigarette store looking to get into dripping. There was too much information to process as I was in a hurry, so I decided to just get some juice and go on my way. However, they told me something that I wanted to ask about.
They said the best thing for dripping would be a mechanical mod. There lowest end model was a kamry k100 so I'll just use that as an example.
The kamry k100 runs between 3.7V and 4.2V generally. How would the vapor output on this be any different from my VV ecig that can go from 3.2 - 4.8V. I just don't understand how there would be a difference, and why they would discourage me from dripping with it.

thank you for anything you can tell me

What are you using now? Honestly, most APVs like the SVD, Provari, Vamo, etc will handle a dripping atty just fine.

It's a 1300 mAh vision spinner

Your Spinner will be fine for dripping. Shoot for a 1.7-2.0Ω disposable dripping atty, start at the lowest voltage and work up a bit.

It all depends on how you build your coil on your RDA, your battery in the mech, and voltage drop of the current the battery drops current into. There are few variables, well many. What are you wanting to do is the question. Test juice flavors with it only, or vapor clouds.

If it is the later, vapor clouds, and you have not been vaping a while, let alone rebuilt or even built a coil yet, stop right here, step back, and start doing your reading and study into "Ohm's Law", battery chemistry, battery safety, then once you got all that down, start studying up on building a coil, before even thinking about buying a mod, RDA, tools, and building supplies to do it.

If it is the first, testing juices, and sit back and relax drip vaping, again, and I suggest going this route first, building standard Ohm coils on a decent but inexpensive RDA, Smoktech RDA (Octopus) or Bully, on an APV before moving to a mech to get practice wrapping coils, troubleshooting faults and such.

Reason I caution this, Cali is a big scene on Sub-Ohm building on mech mods, cloud chasers, nothing wrong with it, yet it is inherently more dangerous, than standard vaping, last thing you want to do relatively new and inexperienced is have a Lithium Ion battery fail on you due to overstress. Haven't done it myself with vaping, but having dealt with RC Cars, seeing a battery pack go boom is not pretty, and never want that type of chemical reaction going off anywhere near my face.

Don't go diving for the far scale just yet, take baby steps, a Spinner will handle an RDA just fine for normal vaping, then step into an APV, then the mech, batteries, and modifying things to go for the deep end without researching and practicing first.

Just my 2 cents, that or get in good with some of the rebuilders that frequent that vape shop and pick their brains and learn from them for a couple of months.

wow man thank you. My goal is huge clouds, but i'll stick with what I have going for now. I've been reading about rebuilding atomizers so I think my next step will be getting RDA and starting to practice. Then I'll move on to APVs and probably stick there.
They have a huge coil building community at the shop so I'll start talking to them about it more.

thank you for the information! Also, thank you for showing me that theirs a subreddit for ecigarettes.
I'm not going to go crazy with this.

There's a lot of great material in The ECF Library, too!

A battery (mod... mech or electronic) will not effect vapor output or flavor. 4.2V is 4.2 V. The difference is all in the atty.
I toot one flavor juice in 6 different attys and they all perform different. THE VARIABLE IS IN THE ATTY.
A battery mod only differs the experience by 1) electronic = consistent V output. 2) mechanical = "reliance" on battery.

Imho mech mods and any other battery really don't affect the taste in any. They're just batteries all doing the exact same thing. The main flavor comes from coil design.

Coil/chamber/air hole(s) design. Also, wicking material(s).
