My collection is growing

[LavaLampHero]

So i got into the mechanical mod mumbo jumbo about 3 weeks ago. Bought an FUhattan at the local shop along withd batteries, ohm reader, charger, attys etc... So far im enjoying it really well. This morning, I was browsing craigslist and came across someone selling the K100's for $45.00. It was the entire kit. I went and picked one up. Just an average Joe kind of guy. He said he bought them for him and his buddies but they didnt want them i guess. I think my next mod will be one that takes a 26650 battery.

Well here is my stunning two mod collection. As i said, im enjoying mechs really well. And from this forum and Google, im pretty sure im being safe. both attys are dual coils with 5/6 wrap using .24g kanthal. Both at .22ohm. Thought id share and do a bit of show and tell. Thanks for reading guys!

It's always great to get new toys to play with. I'm really enjoying all these new sub-ohm tanks that I can either use stock coils or rebuild paired with a high v/w box mod. My mechs are lonely sitting in a drawer with the exception of my Reo woody box mods.

You are if you are using 30A batteries.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

With a mechanical mod the only way to "fine tune" your vape is to build a new coil. With a high vv/vw regulated mod (and its buck/boost circuitry) you can "fine tune" with a push of a button. On a mechanical mod your voltage drops as you vape, with a regulated mod this does not happen. Your first hit is just as good as your last hit.

A high vv/vw mod is a lot more versatile than a mechanical mod (not to mention safer, less upkeep, etc). The beauty of a high vv/vw mod is that you don't have to build low sub-ohm coils to get a great vape. In fact, building low sub-ohm works against you. Higher ohm coils use more wire which means more surface area to vaporize juice. This increases both heat and vapor production.

With a mechanical mod you increase the warmth of your coil by building lower ohm coils. However, the electronics in a regulated mod boosts the power coming from the battery so the ohms of the coil no longer control the warmth.

Here's a good thread on the subject: My thoughts about sub-ohm and latest VV/VW devices...

Hmm, never really put too much thought into that. Ive looked at a few Hana mods but never got to tinker with them. Recently i was looking at Sig 150w. Its not too pricey but i might see if someone has something like it i can use for a day or so. Thanks for the input!
