Thanks, this was what I had been told earlier.
Would you care to quess if ss contacts would make more difference?

I haven't seen SS contacts.
The silver colored ones you see are usually silver plated copper or silver plated brass.
The plating reduces corrosion and oxidation keeping.
Ya, there was a SS telescopic mechanical (2012 if I remember right) that had SS contacts. It showed a nice voltage without a load, but would hardly fire a 2 ohm load. Anything lower than that & it wouldn't fire at all.
In all fairness if a SS mod gives poor performance, there is a lot more than just the fact that it's a SS tube going on.

Wasn't that overly complicated Korean mod that could be stripped to tiny pieces?
I recall havin an argument with one modder at VaporWall who was adamant, that voltagedrop gets bigger higher the ohms.
Other option could be GGTS.
It was made in Europe, but not a GG. It was named after one of the Greek Gods however. (have forgotten which one)
Easy rule of thumb, a bad contact is ADDED resistance. So need to be careful with that argument.

I personally dislike silverplating due to the fact it gets scraped off easily (or did back in 13 or 12) and don't like keeping copper shiny, so had several GGs w/ ss contacts but that was just me and we did use around 1.5 ohm loads back then.
NO, my decimal point was correct. That mod was that bad without changing out the contacts.

I've had a lot of mechs, they are all I use after 3 years. So far the best I've had are my 4 Poldiacs. I'm very happy with them. Sadly they are not made anymore, but at least I got them at the last minute, before they were gone, and with a lot of spare parts.
Two mods that I can think of that are designed to use a 'hot spring' as a rudimentary fuse are the Atmizoo Roller and the Reos. I'm sure there are others. But in both the Reo and the Roller, the switch is at the positive. The spring is at the negative.
I fixed that "feature" in mine. More gooder now. I can build a triple aught two build and proclaim "hold my beer and watch this!".

The AltSmoke Silver Bullet uses a "hot spring", too.
It also has a recessed fire button, which makes it less likely to accidentally fire the button when carried in a pocket or purse. The button is also designed to allow the release of gas should a battery vent.

I like mods that are switched on the positive side, because if there is a nick or a tear in the battery wrap, and it touches the body of the mod, it can't auto-fire.
So how low should one build with mech that use magnets in their switches?
Did hear going too hot kills the magnets FAST.

Nah.
I build around .2 in all my mechs. Never had any problems with the magnets.
