I ordered the Nemesis clone from 101 cause they have them for only $30 right now (same price as fasttech!). I've been doing some reading and see a lot of people like adding the magnets, seems like a worthy upgrade. But I found a guy on eBay that is packaging his magnets with extended positive and firing pins. I'm just getting into mechs so I don't know a whole lot about this stuff, yet. And just want to know if I should get the whole package or just the magnets.

The parts are decent, but not needed - simply available.
Good to have as spare parts or to change the design a bit.
I use Magnets in all my Nemesis as I like the feel and like being able to sit them down for a minute without locking.

As to Claims of the Bottom Screw NOT being adjustable - Matter of opinion.
I prefer setting the length to control switch through. There is no other way to control and change switch through without taking the switch apart every time.
Just know, the Screw needs something to keep it snug in the threads. A wax dot, Drop of Blue loctite, etc, and you can do as you wish without worry.

Magnets: they make the switch throw a LOT nicer. Well worth it.

Extended pins: used for if you want to run the kick ring without a kick for cosmetic reasons

IMO nemesis upgrades are well worth it. I have magnets, polished my firing button post, and i have a fusion mods nem-1 hybrid kit. I don't get any of the issues people complain about with the switch.

I bought the 18 dollar version of the clone on fasttech. I took apart the switch and applied noalox to the centerpiece where the little pin mates with the outer threaded ring for lubrication. After a couple of weeks of breaking in, the switch is near perfect without the magnets.

Using a flat top battery like to Sony vtc4 shortens the throw of the switch making it even better. Pretty good device!

The thick upgraded contacts go on the to cap right and the skinnier one goes into the switch? Still debating on the contacts upgrade.

Also can it be used with AW 18350 and the kick ring? I've heard mix answers like it doesnt. only flat tops. need some clarification before i purchase. thanks!
