Ego batteries like yours push out about 3.3-3.4 volts. A fully charged mech mod is starts at 4.2 volts and drops to around 3.7 volts for normal vaping. By the time the voltage drops down to eGo levels a mech mod user is usually putting it on the charger.

This means the mech mod user is pushing a lot more power to the coil which results in more vapor production, even using the same clearos and coils on both the mech and eGo.
Thanks allot for explaining.
Is there any difference between using a 18350 or a 18650
Of course it will run ou of juice master but will it give a different vape?

Clones are a great starter and definitely recommend. But also make sure you read enough and understand the way a mechanical vape works (where the current is going, how it is dispersed and simple basics of Ohm's law to calculate Volts, Current, Resistance and Power). When building coils for your rebuildables as well, ensure that you don't start of with low ohms or else you may find yourself running the battery at currents that it can not take.

Thats good advice For any electronic device you plan on opening up if you dont know what your doing dont do it.
Do you mean subohm when you say low ohms?

SubOhm usually applies to below 1 Ohm. But the more hardcore vapers only deem it as below 0.5Ohms to be subOhms. Honestly with the new batteries that support continuous discharge of over 10Amps (even with the smaller 18350s) up to 30A'sin the larger ones, it is already a lot more safer, which contributes to the lowering cut off for 'subohm'. However anywhere that pushes the battery to over 80% of the battery's C rating, I would consider unsafe.

If you want to use a clearomizer with a mechanical mod, I would suggest a vw kick. I have a kick 2 in my k101, set at 7 watts. I have an Iclear 30s on it and it works sufficiently for me. With the k101, it is a pain to get the kick out, so I found the setting I like, and leave it in. I use 18350s and one battery gets me through the day. I like the convenience of clearomizers because I am usually on the go, but I love the simplicity and reliability of a mech mod.

honestly not much at this time. Like around 25 30 and I know theres probably nothing out there for that but my girlfriend got a nemesis clone and it made me pretty damn jealous lol

Fasttech SKU 1448300 Nemesis clone! Get SS, I'm ordering mine soon because I've heard a lot of good about it. Only $24.63 right now.
