Just ordered my first mechanical...

The Natural TELESCOPE Mechanical Mod by SMOKtech - Stainless Steel

vaporjoes11percent makes it right around $49 bucks...got a kick for it too, just cause all the exploding battery stuff scares me a bit.

I had been searching for the drawtube (ds mod) based on forum discussions, but had trouble finding them.

Does anyone already have the Natural Telescopic? Tricks, tips, general feedback???

Happy Memorial Day/weekend all!

I don't have that mod gal66stang, but I have recently got a couple of other mods similar in cost, a K100 and a GGTS clone. Both perform very well for me. I did not modify or tweak these in any way, other than to apply a small amount of Noaloxx on the threads and switch contact points. Best of luck with your Telescope!

I ordered mine from exhale vapors. I sanded down all the contacts. Mine had a blemish or scratch on the upper tube, and the top cap threads are horrendously bad. I use 18350 batteries so it is a lot quicker to use the top cap to replace batteries rather than the telescope part. The threads on the rest of the pieces are good though. It is a ok mod. It is my first and I definitely see why people would spend $100+ to get something that is machined better. I will soon be modding the switch spring so its not so much of a work out getting it to vape. Its a really stiff button.

looking to get a mech mod too. why did i think vaping was gonna save me money?

Vaping on a mech is a bit different of an experience but it's so simple there's not a big learning curve. If you don't have a mod than can check batteries and resistance, I recommend getting a multimeter (you can find decent ones around $10).

A lot of people worry about draining their batteries too far, but to be honest you'll notice a big drop in performance before the battery ever gets discharged too much to become a risk.
