"Mechanical"
No abs, no tipronic, no disc brakes(!), no computer, no fuel injecton, no airbags, no mufflers, poly glass radial tires.

Mech with a kick?

Yes, but instead of having to fit the component part why not have it as part of the device from the start. So an ordinary regulated device, like a high powered box mod or even a low powered tube mod which has an additional feature that allows the user to switch between either regulated or mechanical.

The semovar is a Hybrid, but it's a different kind of hybrid. I'm talking about a feature which makes a mod both mechanical and regulated, but not at the same time.

Yes a Semovar is regulated or configured to be a mech by removing the chip module section and replacing the bottom cap with a mech switch...

House of Hybrids mods can also be configured this way...

Alright, but what if you didn't have to take it apart, but just go into the menu and change that feature at the press of a button.

Just say every mod available had a feature which did that, just another feature after all. Imagine say for a random example an IPV4S which has a feature which turns it into a mechanical. See what i mean ?.

Some mods have the ability to turn off regulation, but only SvoeMesto and House of Hybrid mods can go from being regulated to true mechs and back...

I understand what you mean, a mech is a mech and if it had a circuit board and wires then it wouldn't be a mech. What i'm referring to though is a device which could completely cut of the circuitry and be a mech. so i'd imagine the switch which changed it from one to the other would probably have to be mechanical, so it would physically disconnect the circuit board.

That's not really possible the way box mods are built...
