I'm in the "Kanger on a mech mod" camp at the moment. Have been for a couple months. I had got the Aerotank Mini as an upgrade from the Evod. When my old E-go twist batteries started dying fast I got a mech mod to save money. Also, I really didn't want a huge regulated mod. I was
vaping at 4.0V before, I'd start out a little higher and drop a little lower with the mech. No biggie. My aerotank mini on a mech mod looked stupid but it was very satisfying.
I know I'll catch flack for saying this but after 3 days screwing around with a Kayfun trying to prevent dry hits and flooding I bought a Aerotank Mega. I work 60 hours a week and don't have time for an RBA right now. My local shop has 5 packs of coils for $12. That'll last me a month of chain
vaping for hours a day. The mega isn't performing as well as the mini did (was hoping for the same vape with a bigger
tank) but that's a topic for another thread I'll be starting momentarily.
I guess all this rambling was just to say that my Aerotank Mini on a mech setup gave me big clouds (not RDA clouds obviously but enough to piss of non vapers) and a nice cool vape with decent flavor. Most importantly, it was easy to maintain, small and lightweight. Yes a regulated mod would be nice but this works. It's not the most popular setup but it not the "wrong" equipment either. I'm glad others are finding it helpful enough to stay off the analogs. Cheers.
