Potential Dripping Setup

[Pinkfloydfan91]

Hey everyone, I am getting ready to purchase my first mech mod and rda to get into dripping and sub-ohm so I can change flavors easily and not have to vape a whole tank before i switch to a new flavor. I have put together this setup and want to know what you all think about it. Right now I am kind of torn between a stingray clone or nemesis clone but here it is:

hcigar nemesis clone (stainless steel on brass) with magnet switch kit. (Would it be more worth it to go with brass on stainless steel for a few bucks more?)
Vape Royalty Two-Tone Nemesis Mod by HCigar

OR: stingray clone (stainless steel) with magnet switch installed
HCigar Stingray Mod Clone Stainless Steel

Nimbus RDA
Nimbus RDA

Efest purple 18650 flat top 2100mah 30 amp IMR battery
EFest Purple 18650 Flat Top 2100mah 30 Amp IMR Battery

Efest LUC Multi- charger
EFest LUC Multi - 2 Bay LCD Smart Charger

Let me know what you all think about this and if I should change anything. Like I said up top, this is my first mechanical so I am a little unfamiliar with quality of clones, etc. I have watched reviews on these mech's and they both have good reviews. Any suggestions on RDA's would be great too. I know people have nimbus RDA's and like them but let me know what you think. Also, is vaperoyalty a reputable vendor or should I look elsewhere. I know fast tech is a good one and cheap, but I don't want to wait a few months to receive my order. Thanks everyone

I kind of like this one:

$20.60 Nemesis Style Mechanical Mod - 18350/18500/18650 / stainless steel + gold plated at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

You can get the magnet kit for less than a buck there, too.

Get Infinite Stingray, not HCigar if you decide to go Stingray, in fact just get the dang Stringray so you don't have to deal with Magnet upgrade for Nemesis or lose that stupid firing pin in the switch.

If this is your first mechanical mod, I rather see you not tinker with lot of stuff and get off with pleasant start.

Skip the purple batteries and get the Sony VCT 5, they are tried and true, same price as EFest and they will last longer. Buy it from legit place like RTD vapor.

I would research more for a RDA with adjustable air flow...nothing sucks worse than running to Home Depot to buy drill gun and vice because you have to drill a bigger air hole cause you feel like your sucking a bowling ball through the eye of needle. There are so many RDAs will that will make your life easier..

Obligatory ECF suggestions:

1. Get a REO instead, cause they rock
2. Get Provari instead, cause they rock
3. Get DNA Ludicrous # cause they rock

+1 on the adjustable air flow control on the rda

The nemesis clone is a great starting mechanical mod and it hits hard. As for the nimbus, that's also a good choice but you could also go with an IGO-W since it has so many available top cap choices with adjustable airflow and such. You really can't go wrong choosing the typical entry level RDA's because they're mostly all good enough to start with.

As for the battery, I always recommend VCT4's or VCT5's. That's just what I feel safe with. I also prefer the Nitecore intellicharger i4.

The Mod itself is up to you. $40+ seems a bit much for a mech clone, check out eBay to see if you can find it for cheaper. I got my Sentinel M16 for $27, but what you want to spend is up to you.

I third an RDA with adjustable airflow. I got an Atomic clone by EHpro for $30 off ebay.

I second replacing the Efests with Sony VTC5s. Reputable manufacturer, rated at 30 amp continuous discharge, higher battery capacity (2600mAh). I recommend getting at least two batteries so you can vape while one is charging

I got a 4-bay Nitecore Intellicharger off Amazon for $16. I'm not sure how the two chargers compare, but the Nitecore always charges by batteries to 4.2V +/- 0.01V.

I can agree to that, some people don't want to buy that high:
I got my Fasttech Stingray Polished for around 30 shipped, no issues, just had to clean it..
so if original poster has patience:
