Nemesis Switch Question

[SINphul]

Quick question for folks who have both an authentic Atmomixani Nemesis and the hcigar Nemesis clone. Is the authentic switch much better than the clone? I know there are a bunch of comparisons out there, and most say the clone is just as good if not better than the authentic. But me personally, I find the clone's switch to be a bit annoying. Very crunchy, and occasionally gets itself caught up when I try to press it.

So is the authentic version's switch worlds better? If so, I'll probably pick one up when I get a chance. Thanks!

Only difference between legit and a high quality clone will be the difference in the spring or magnets.

Take an honest look at the button.
No matter which mech you are talking about you arent dealing with the pinnacle of mechanical engineering. These are VERY simple devices

I have both ive found the real button to be a lot smoother my hcigar clone it seems like the pin in it catches alot if i dont hit it dead center and voltage drop clone vs real is about .5 better on the real one both r real nice devices but i love my real one my clone is my work mod since if i drop it ill get over it!!

Personally i dont think you can go wrong with a real Nemesis of all my mods its my favorite. I like it more than my Just GG, Electric Angel or my Gus i like my hcigar clone but i love my authentic!

If you did not take it apart and clean everything as soon as you got it - BEFORE trying it - you likely did damage to the switch. I have purchased 7 and only one has issues. The first one I bought and just dropped a battery in to test it out.
I instantly scratched the Brass with shavings riding the switch barrel.

I have not seen a perfectly clean Nemesis out of box yet.

One last note - my 3 Brass Nemesis switches are buttery smooth.

Ive changed the brass pin on it and it still catches on the clone not all the time but it does happen. Ive never had that problem on the real one and i always clean my mods before first use. Especially with clone.

Really, the workmanship on the real nemesis is better than a clone. The threading on the real nemmy is better than the clone, the engravings are better, the switch works better than the clone. I have 4 legit nemmies and have yet to experience the "crunchiness" that is claimed. I know not everyone can afford to spend the $$ on a legit mod. For purposes of just being able to use it and have a decent mod, the clone is fine. If you are one of those people who are into quality, then get the original.

For what it's worth, I believe that you can relieve some of the "crunchiness" by switching out the spring entirely and replacing it with neodymium magnets. I can't say enough about the improvement. Not that the nemesis was bad by any means, but with the magnets, it is buttery smooth. I am fairly certain this will solve your issue. Happy vaping!

I took my Dremmel and polished the switch post and inside the brass ring to a high polish... Both my authentic and clone work so smooth now, no crunching at all.
