I haven't noticed any better experience with logos on an Atomiser @DPLongo22, and besides I'm frugal.
Thank you for that link, JC! I've been looking for that old iStick 100 for awhile now and couldn't find it anywhere. I never expected to find it for under $10, so I just ordered 3.
I rarely buy new stuff anymore - I have a pretty good stash already - but really liked that mod.
I like my God mod clone, sorta hard to mess that design. Why I like it. Simple, and effective constant contact mech. A double stack is all it's missing.
And other than finish quality, I haven't noticed a difference in clone vs real attys

Found a pico squeeze 2 mod at vapesourcing for $23.99, plus their clearance page has a few decent eleaf, joyetech and wismec mods at ridiculous prices.

You're very welcome!
I love it when someone's been trying to find "a favorite" something, and is able to not only get it, but...at a great price, too. Even if you have a pretty good stash already...at less than $10 each, I share your way of thinking. I'd likely have bought 3, too, if I were you!
Clones are cool, depending on who made them. I especially look for HCigar clones. Many of their clones rival the authentics quite closely. Another company that's doing great work, and unlike HCigar, they are still building mechs, is YFTK. Steam Gear tend to be really good as well.
The big difference between clones and the more expensive authentics is the fire buttons. I've gone over a few, sanding them smoother, giving them an ultra-light coat of silicone lube, replacing springs with stiffer ones, and upgrading magnets. I've also converted a couple to magnets instead of springs.
In many cases, you can buy authentic replacement buttons.
Here's a nice Caravela clone from HCigar, with a very nice and cheap Matrix RDA clone. Great setup for under $20.

Just love ur dancing man !! So cute ! .... I want 1 !I found the epitome of cheap today. Playing on ebay I noticed I had a coupon available and picked up a Pulse Dual kit for a total of $7 shipped. I really only want the Pulse V2 RDA but even then, $7 is a steal.
If I sell the mod it's like getting paid to use the RDA.
It's a little (a lot) heavy, if you don't mind go for it. It's been a deal breaker for many.Found a pico squeeze 2 mod at vapesourcing for $23.99, plus their clearance page has a few decent eleaf, joyetech and wismec mods at ridiculous prices.

Looks like a pretty nice mech for the price. It weighs 8 1/2 oz, so you could take it to the scrapyard if you don't like it. I like that style fire button, and the battery adjustment rocks. Plus you get a matching RDA. I think I'll get one. What color are you getting? I'm thinking silver...
On Edit:
I bought one in silver.
I don't know much about mech squonkers. But it is pretty.

I posted this on the Final Countdown thread. There is someone on eBay selling mechs and RDA's at insane prices. I've already received three of the five that I've ordered, and they're all good quality clones. One had a small chip in the top. Check it out if you're interested in $10 (plus S&H) mechs and RDA's.

The ram is a good squonker, but make sure you can fit a bottle you want, as the one it comes with is PET
@DeloresRose, the Senatorian Ram seems a good deal. I know that they used to be much higher priced than that.

Yep, that was mentioned in the comments/reviews.
Looking for extra bottles for all my squonkers now. That one seems a fairly common size
These are inexpensive and good quality (and free shipping):
Coil Master Gremlin BF Silicone Bottle - Coil Master
I have one in my SQ, and one in my Luna.
To avoid cross-posting it here, if you're interested in a super sale (to help you add to, or start, your "stash")...you may want to check out the info in my post in this thread. It's the second one from the bottom on the page:
