I immensely enjoy the hobby/tinkering/nerdy aspect of vaping, in addition to the nic-delivery of course, and that's why I love mechs/rebuilding/DIY etc and learning as much as I can during... If you're not interessted in that(mechs), then just stick to regulateds, they're safe even without much precautions and fine solutions..

If you wanna use mechs, then read, read and read some more, and ask about everything you're in doubt about, especially safety... :) You don't need to be a nerd about it if you don't want to, but atleast get ohms law calculation/calculators down and not building over CDR of battery. Also. don't use pinless-510 mods/topcaps unless getting the precautions down there first also...
 
I was very afraid....but I know that was not your intent.and thanks again for the education you guys have provided me with,it goes a long way.maybe in the future but not now I dont hzve the time or money to do it right and I sure dont want to do it dangerously so thanks again:lol:

We all started from scratch at some point in this crazy vape game! You're gonna do just fine, baby steps at first & you'll get the hang of it in no time. :)

Putting gas in your car is more dangerous than using a mechanical mod.
Take the time to learn how to use the gear properly, and learn how it works.

You need to understand this to use any device safely, not just mechs

Might I suggest something?
I fyou think you like the look and feel of a tube-style mod, you actually don't have to go for a mech mod, there are many regulated mods out there in tube form. Some of them I use with great satisfactory.

I was just going to mention this. And aren't provaris quite a bit cheaper now than they used to be?

Edit: just checked and there are several "blemished" units starting @ $29.
That's a steal for provape quality IMO

Provaris are cheap now because those specific models won't fire sub ohm coils and are have lower power than most mods available today.

Yeah no mech mod for me,I'll stick to my nice not scary regulated mods *runs away from mech mods like a sceaming child* maybe in five or ten years.....

Here is a Tube Mod that is Like a Mech. But also has some Built In Protection like a Regulated Mod.

18650 version: Original Kamry Tech X6 Plus 304 Stainless Steel E - Cigarette Starter Kit

18350 version: Original Kamry Tech X6 Plus 304 Stainless Steel E - Cigarette Starter Kit

The Tank that it comes with is OK. Nothing to write home about. And I'm not even sure where you can buy Replacement Coils? I bought the kit for the Mod. And then Modified the Tank so it could run eGo ONE Coils.

WOTOFO Phantom. Authentic, around 40$.
Try to get the black or copper one. They have almost no voltage drop.



Great. Someone is recommending a direct battery (faux hybrid) mod to a beginner. :facepalm:

With friends like you, who needs enemies?

To be fair, it has a standard top cap, too.
To be fair, anyone recommending a direct-battery mechanical mod to a beginner also has the responsibility to insure that person knows the difference and the necessary precautions they have to observe.
