Question about mods...or direct me to the thread I'm sure it's already covered in...

[GonzoBean]

I'm really enjoying vaping, and also enjoying the gadgetry aspect of it. Thinking of getting another battery or mod to have a backup, and don't really know what I'm looking for. My MVP and EGO style battery that I have are self contained, but it looks like if I got one of the cool looking mods I'd also need to get batteries and a charger.

I really like the looks of the Hammer style mod and the Tesla. Any advice, or direct me to a thread where the basics are covered, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm not really sure what your question is.

A few more posts and the vast realm of ECF is open for you to discover.

Sorry, get a little wordy sometimes. I guess the question is: can someone direct me to a thread or page with the basics of mods, how they work, the different kinds, etc.

"Mod" is an ambiguous term, now days it seems anything that isn't a cigalike or an ego style battery is referred to as a 'mod'.
The Tesla is a regulated VV/VW APV with built in safety features. amp limit, battery over discharge, short protection ect.
Hammer is a mechanical, with no safety features other than the one between the users ears.

A mechanical requires the user to have a reliable accurate way to check battery voltage & delivery device resistance, the regulated apv has built in battery & ohm checker.
Both require the appropriate batteries and charger.

Welcome gonzobean. U are at the right place to learn all there is to know about vaping. my suggestion to you is to spend a good deal of time just searching through the info on this site. One of the very first things I suggest if u plan to venture into mechanical mods is to read up on battery safety. Very very important for your own health. Past that it's mostly just a quest to find the equipment that takes you where u want to go.

Thanks for the answers. After browsing through various threads, I guess I'm not really looking for a mechanical mod...I'm looking for a VV/VW mod or two..or three...
Have been looking at the Vamo V5...looks pretty sweet.

Battery safety is by far the most time consuming subject you will learn. Its important to be cautious of what batteries to use in what and how. Because all it takes is one short and you've suffered some serious trauma in your wallet. Get the basics down and enjoy the benefits of mech modding if it's your cup of tea.
