So recently after seeing all the hard work put into authentic mods and attys I've left the clone game to buy authentics.

I just ordered the Nanos mod by MMVapors and was curious as to what attys sit flush with it. I heard some have a bit of an issue. I drip mostly, and around .3-.5ohm with cotton wicking. Things to take into consideration, the nano is brass, and my bank account is already upset about the mod, so mid to lower price range

First congratulations on your purchase of the Nanos. I have a single tube brass Nanos that I use daily and have really enjoyed it. I also have two of the Poldiacs that MMVapors makes also. Jim and his group at MMVapors make some really good equipment and have great customer service. They will be releasing their own designed and built dripper later this month. I have seen pictures of the outside of it, but not the internal parts yet. It will be 22mm od.
They are starting to make 22mm Nanos mods and have a SS one available at the present time. They will be offering this size in all finishes as time goes forward.
I am guessing your Nanos will be 22.6 mm as that is the size for all Nanos up to this point in time. Going forward they will offer both 22 mm and 22.6 mm sizes. I am not sure that less than .024 of an inch is that much of a difference, but I think some had asked for this size.
Most of the drippers available are 22 mm.
I have a Veritas clone, a Magma clone and an authentic 454 Big Block dripper. The 454 Big Block is made in the USA and is a very well built unit. I got mine on Ebay for less than $70 with free shipping. It is all Stainless Steel and 22 mm. This 454 dripper on my Nanos is my favorite combination. They make quite a pair.
One note about your Nanos. The switch is a very clever design and works great. The locking and unlocking works like a champ. But you will need to remove the screw in the switch and clean the two halves every couple of weeks as lint and such will build up on the contact surfaces. It only takes a couple of minutes for the task, but it will keep your Nanos hitting so hard.

I'm jealous of the poldiac I couldn't find one myself but that was the first option and settled on the brass nano and am very excited to try it out. Thanks for all the good info !
