I just ordered the AGA T2. The only mods I have are 2 Provaris. I was about to order the smok Natural and then I saw somewhere that the AGA won't sit flush on it. Is there a mech that looks similar to the Natural that I am not finding that will have a flush fit with an rba? I want all SS and it has to take 18650s. Thanks in advance for any replies.

You can make an Aga sit flush on the Natural by sanding down the 510 connector on the Natural. However, it is quite tall for a mech mod. It's as tall as my Gus in 18500 mode while using a 18350 battery.

Just saying... Wouldn't really recommend the Natural due to size, and the Gus due to price and need of a replacement center pin to make it "pop". I'm considering a Magneto, but can't really justify getting another mech at this point. Looks fairly short, but I wouldn't know as I've never held one.

I plan on using it on my Provari but I just thought I would see once and for all what all the fuss is about with the mechs. I used to have a few and wasn't impressed due to the vape getting weaker as the battery wore down.

Unless you have your mechanical mod kicked, that's how it will perform.
The biggest advantage to a non-kicked mechanical mod that I've found, is not having to worry about electronics and being able to fire just about any atomizer on it. Disadvantages are few but the common. Battery life not monitored, no way to VV or VW without a kick device, and cartos don't terribly work well on them.

Other than that, I do prefer my mechanicals to my regulated mods.

Bought myself a SmokTech Magneto for 55$ at a local shop, you can probably find em cheaper online and it's great. It is my first mech as well and I honestly love it. Rarely do I even pick up my SVD anymore.

If you are ok with clones, find the Chi You clone and click buy, do not think twice. That thing is amazing in every sense. Hits like a monster, looks beautiful and is reasonably priced for what you get.
