I just purchased a Copper hcigar 1:1 Nemesis mod. I'm looking to upgrade the switch with magnets.
I see that some kits come with rings that are 17mm in diameter, while others are 13mm in diameter. Which should I choose for this hcigar 1:1?


Secondly, I see a lot of upgrade kits offering two magnets - and also a good deal offering 3. Are the kits with three magnets merely including a spare, or is there a certain place for a third magnet on a Nemesis mod?


Thanks so much!

I've tried several with my favorites from FatDaddyVapes. I believe his are the same as vaperev.com sells for the orginial nemesis. both are about 17mm but thinner than others I've seen. I also have 3 of the HCigar Nemesis clones that came with magnets included and the springs installed. They worked well but broke one when the MOD got knocked off a table by the cat. No other damage other than a broken magnet. Now as for the smaller 3 magnet setups if you get the 10 magnet pack from Fasttech if you don't use 3 it will not support a heavier atty without firing in some cases.

3 x 1mm magnets will take up less space than 2 x 2mm ones. I find the force required to push the button when using 3 of the FastTech magnets is a bit too much. I much prefer how it feels with 2 but as been mentioned you can't stand the Nemesis up on the switch without it firing.

2 1mm magnets are too weak, that's why they offer 3, which is just fine for my preference.
You have to know that neodymium magnets are just that and don't have to be branded nemesis magnets (and cost more because of it) to work proper, they just need to be the right size.
In addition these magnets are quite fragile, so it's always a good idea to have extras.
I bet some of those dealers buy 10 pack sets from FT then break them down into 5 sets and make 1000% profit on each.
