Looking for a 26650 mech with low voltage drop and locking ring. Here's my list, opinions?

[Dioxyde]

So far I've made this list:

-Congestus Infinite clone (Seems solid, just so sick of looking at polished SS lol): Infinite Congestus Clone 26650 Mech Mod - Kidney Puncher
-Copper 26650 Nemesis clone (silver plated contacts, this seems like a pretty fool proof option): 26650 Nemesis Clone - Copper - Kidney Puncher
-Copper 26650 Akuma clone (all copper and silver contacts): Akuma 26650 Copper Mod Clone $46.99 - VividSmoke.com
-Copper Kingpin 26650 w/ copper contacts: https://88evape.com/shop/mechanical-mods/11-kingpin-mcv-philippines-clone/?age-verified=b201ed0cac
-Fat Snow Wolf authentic or Copper Fat Snow Wolf clone: https://www.fasttech.com/product/1807204-fat-snow-wolf-style-26650-mechanical-mod
-Copper Triquetra 26650 (can not find ANY reviews on this guy, but looks solid): http://vapedepartment.com/triquetra.html

I'm thinking about money and performance with this choice. If a clone gives me good performance I have no right to spend the extra hundreds of dollars, then again, if spending the extra hundreds of dollars gets me something that is superb quality, sturdy and extremely low voltage drop, has a locking mechanism, and is proven to be great out of the box without modification, I'll definitely consider it. If you have experience with any of these help me make a choice guys!

There is another option if you want a 26650 mech with superb quality . Precise Simplicity 26650 | Super T Manufacturing Inc.

I've heard good things about those, it's just the polished SS thing, after seeing so much of it for years it really gets old to look at >< Has anyone measured the voltage drop on the simplicity? Can't find any info.

They have it available in a satin finish if you want , I haven't come across voltage drop tests for it , but I'm interested as well . I have a stainless steel 26650 panzer , it's about as close to indestructible as you can get but it does drop half a volt , my stingrays put it to shame , still it's a decent vape though .

I want to comment on voltage drop. You know what another word for voltage is? Potential, because the voltage is always there, waiting for a closed circuit so the positive can run to the negative,and that creates current (amps). When a circuit is closed, a voltage drop occurs because the potential is being used to draw the current through the circuit. Now it depends on the material the current is being drawn through. Copper is superior to brass, and brass is superior to steel. Not cosmetically but from a conductive perspective. The voltage drop on a typical mod design should be between .30 V and .50 V, depending on the tubes material. Does that really make a difference in the performance at the coil in the atty? No, because the current will be maintained at the same rate according to the power (Watts) and resistance (ohms). It's the amperes, not the voltage, that heats up the coil providing you with vapor. Nuff said, happy vaping!

Using a dual micro coil with a resistance of 0.63 ohms, and using the craptacular mod-mounted voltmeter method, mine came out to 0.36. For stainless, I'm pretty satisfied with it.
