want one of each, but, my budget liberation fund (wife) dictates just one. which one should it be, the Poldiac or the Nemesis? as always, thank you in advance.

That depends on what features you want and when you want it. Many of the Poldiacs are in stock right now, which may not be exactly rare but it's not usual. The Nemesis looks like it's going to be hard to get for awhile. The Poldiac has a side button that can be either top or bottom. The Nemesis has a bottom button. I would imagine both perform pretty much equally.
You could always get a poldiac now, while it's available and then save up for a Nemesis.. they just came out a few days ago and I heard that many lost out.. it may be a little while before they are offered again.

If you have the patience, I would just go for the Nemesis if you like both equally. You get the option to use all batteries including a kick. You have to buy extra tubes and body pants for the Poldiac. Telescoping bottom button for getting the right fit for your batteries and so far there has been no negative reviews of the nemesis other than it not having the atmomixani logo on it. I think it's just as beautiful as the Poldiac if not better. The big plus is the price. 150 eur vs 130 eur, that's $25 difference not including the shipping.

Seems to be a common question these days hehe. rofl@budget liberation fund
They are both the two hardest hitters out there, with the exception of the BBM but I haven't got to test that one. I hope to get that some day. If you like bottom buttons go for Nemesis, if you're like me and you use heavy attys (like the AC9, Kayfuns, Itakas), just know you'll have to lock it or it will fire if you stand it. I just had an episode this morning with it firing for who knows how long, and I burnt my hand... But, that's just me. I can be doi doi sometimes lol. I love my two Nemesis and would never part with them. You can NOT get any better customer service than you can from Atmomixani. Katrina and crew are the most fantastic people out there. They work with you and are more than fair.
I have two Poldiacs as well, and love them. They are beautiful and the full brass hits the hardest out of all my mods at sub ohm level, but like an expensive instrument, you'll have to take good care of it. It does not have a bottom button... So, it's really up to where you like your button I think. If you're on a budget, and you don't mind locking the button (or if you use lighter attys), I'd have to say go with the Nemesis because for one price, you get it all. Beauty, durability, hard hitting. If you want full out power, the full brass Poldiac is the ticket.
I just got my Nemesis yesterday and I'm just in love with it. My Poldiac will be delivered next week so I really can't compare the two right now. Just like others have said...pick the features that you love the most and trust that there will always be a buyer for either one if you decide you don't like it and want to sell to try another one. It's not like buying a China mod and immediately losing half its value. You will get your money back on a Nemesis or Poldiac.
That's a tough decision! The answers given are spot on. Good luck to you, and don't fret about the one you can't pick up right away if you get the other. You'll be baaaaaack.
The good news is, they both are trying their darndest to have them in stock on a regular basis.
They both take silver polish to clean, because they both have silver contacts, they both have adjustable connectors and adjustable battery ends, and they both hit hard. The Nemesis has larger parts to clean, harder to lose.
Watch the review by The Hill Giant, he's covered just about everything in a non-emotional, non-biased way.

I have the Poldiac, and LOVE it!!! In a few months I hope to own the Nemesis. I bet I will still be in a quandary on which one to recommend. In fact, I'm a huge Roller by Atmizoo fan too, and to be honest, I feel everyone should own all 3 and that's my final answer.

Agreed. I have two Rollers...the best mod available...in my opinion. Another one for you to consider, dezyner.In fact, I'm a huge Roller by Atmizoo fan too, and to be honest, I feel everyone should own all 3 and that's my final answer.
I love my roller too. It feels sooo good in my hand. Hard to explain but it just does. When out and about, I tend to bring that mod a lot. Bottom buttons are a pain in lanyards but the roller I can fire it while in the pouch (can feel the button) and not worry about the weight of it firing the bottom button when it's around my neck shopping
hehe
I really do dig the Poldiac, prefer the top button, the reputation on it as well, and the looks. nice, nice, nice. the Nemesis is a clean line looking machine too, and has it's own aesthetic quality for sure, and so far, the reviews are pretty good. yet another reason for me to ask you folks in the know. hate to admit it, but was probably going consider the roller "clone" route, or something along those lines, the budget demands and dictates compromise, so that was the one to get singled out for a sub par device. and a certain named mod that starts with a "C" that is just too far out there for me price and availability wise to consider, yet....
Nemesis looks generic... It's like all these people see a caravela and say hmmm... If I clone it I can make a few bucks. The poldiac is the mod that made me forget wanting "un-obtanium" and it's very pretty in the Miriam edition. Can't do much better than that.
The Roller CLONE sucks big time. It's not a clone, it's a fast produced screeching scraping awful button tube mod that is called a clone but it in no shape or form copies the Roller. I'm sure you'll hate it. I'd save up the pennies and get the real authentic one of a kind awesome real one.
The real one will outlive you. It's incredible.
Tenshi! You guys sound like me, every time I try to explain what's so right about the Roller. It just is!! In weight, craftsmanship, size, diameter, smoothness, customer service, and then that perfect button that is as smooth and comfortable like a flat keyboard key.
I been thinking about getting a roller myself for out and about. Does anyone know the length in 18350 mode on it? I have a poldiac cw that just came in last Friday and I love it. Just want to see how much difference in size it would be...I know its probably not by much but a little hint will get me to press add to cart and buy when its available
see, that's why I ask here first. so now, the problem is liberating the funds, non clone legit roller atmizoo get's added to the unicorn list. probably kill the Poldiac unicorn first, then the Roller unicorn must die, and I will get around to the Nemesis hunt after that. And by the way, my budget liberation fund (wife), does not like you guys, at all. apparently you are bad influences. you guys, and rum. well done, and cheers. better you than me. thanks again.
My poldiac will be here tomorrow, and I'm on the waiting list for the Eric's Nemesis... My wife has her vices and I have mine... Mine are just a tad mor expensive
I should know this answer, but I'm terrible with numbers. Sorry. But I believe the Dingo is the same height, and the Dingo says:
Dimensions: D: 22.7mm L: 64mm. Weight: 73g.
It's perfect, that's all I really know lol.
She'll love us after she kills you and cashes in on the genuines. She'll dig you up and kill you all over again if she cashes out a clone lol.
There's quite a few over at another forum who owns multiple Velas and Chis who prefers their Nemesis over them, it's quite a good mod. Mine arrives Tuesday.
I just watched Todd's review of the poldiac and he had dingo, roller, poldiac, and 69 lined up..dingo was smallest..then roller ..then poldiac in 18350 mode..but not by much. I gotta compare Gus telescopic and roller now lol. Thanks
I couldn't believe anything would be smaller than the Nemesis in 18350...it's 61mm. The Roller is 68mm.
