Eh... depends on the device and the spring maybe? I know with the nemesis the magnets are silver plated but I don't know if it really matters how conductive they are because its the pin making contact with the battery and not the magnet. My understanding is that its a matter of touch, durability and reducing misfires. But really its device dependent. Some require springs to make contact for the device to work & magnets cant be substituted in those devices in the springs place unless to upgrade the switch which wont have any bearing on how hard it hits per se.
If magnets switch upgrade is an option I say go with it because it will make it fire more smoothly but I don't believe it will change how "hard it hits."

It's after 1am, I'm wide awake and feeling "wordy"... so bear with me.
It's not really a dead nuts relevant question - in that opposing magnets are, with a few exceptions, used as a substitute for a spring - on the button side of the button collet tube and have nothing to do with actual battery contact.
Upside to magnets are that they don't wear down or out and can be infinity "tuned" for resistance by adding, subtracting or varying thickness and strength.
Upside to springs, easier to find and/or make, can be infinitely tuned (stretched, cut, heated to reduce tension, changed etc etc) same as magnets and at present, are generally way cheaper at the retail level.
Magnets of a specific size to fit 'X' mech mod can be difficult to find (ask me how I know
) as most (seem to) come from China and Australia. eBay and "SuperMagnetMan", along with Apex and KJ magnetics can be good resources if you want to find "ring" magnets of a specific ID/OD/thickness. Also, Dennis at Fat Daddy Vapes carries some ring magnets for Sigelei, Chi you and Ba gua.Mechs like the Madz Modz Nzonic are the exception. They are OE with permanently inset magnets and use an "intermediate" contact between battery and firing button. Although the Nzonic (and clones... ehpro being, the best) is easily one of the most popular mechs ever, the design adds a bit of length to the mech... about 3/8"-1/2". Intermediary contact not withstanding, the Nzonic (and ehpro clone) both have very minimal voltage drop under load.
I like magnetic buttons, but I won't buy a mech just because it has a mag button... quality of contacts, voltage drop, thread quality, fit and finish are more valuable to me, IMO.
If "hit harder" is your number one feature... look here.
If it's properly designed, it shouldn't make a difference. The spring shouldn't carry current. Any other defficiency in the switch is either a design or manufacturing problem.
I have three mods with magnets; Two Poldiacs, and a Nemisis with the magnet upgrade. The magnets don't make any difference electrically, in either one; because the magnets aren't part of the electrical circuit.
Vaperev outta stock with nemmi magnets anyone know a place to purchase a set?

None when it comes to hitting harder! But beware some of the ones sold on eBay are weak and will not keep the device from firing with a tank on it. It has to be locked when you sit it down for a sec., going back to springs.
Last night while I was checking out atmomixani's website, they had magnets in stock. That's atmomixani.gr
Tmartin63, check out FatDaddyVapes.com
I bought mine from them, work and fit perfect. I had my brass nemi with an 18650, and prometheus full and drip tip, and it did not fire when unlocked.

I have them too they work the eBay ones by another guy are junk.
I have a SmokTech Magneto and I am extremely happy with it. I've read somewhere that it was inspired by the Nzonic. The firing button does have a bit more play than the Nzonic. I'm hoping to get the new Nzonic v4. Heard nothing but good things about it.
It's irrelevant. If current is running through either a magnet or a spring inside your switch, your mod is crap.
Thanks much, Jarred. I also ordered some from supermagnetman. Should ship first part of Dec.
Magnets aren't hard to find. You can find them in local hardware stores. If they are too thick, you can take them on a trip across the belt sander. I have a set coming in for my King, going to find a set for my Turtle Ship V2, and a set for my Brass Monkee. Don't have to worry about my Mirandus V2 when it comes in, because it comes with springs and magnets, so you have the option.
