yeah, my nemesis clone and pisces original are lying in my drawer gathering dust now. Still prefer my VV/VW mods. :) Maybe I'll stay a noob vaper forever. :p

Haha I'm only using my VV/VW mods at home as those i own are pretty large... gotta wait till I get a DNA mini or some VV/VW portable for my sub ohms.

Anyway reading the article point 3 seems to refer to RBAs.. not mech mods..

It's an article...just what the author wants to portray that mech mods/RDA is a step ahead of ego sticks and clearos, PTs

For someone who just got a mech mod myself, haven't tried playing with the coils but to me it's flavourful and hits stronger. The same juice on my VV/VW is alright, but ooo the mod and tank racks a huge punch. First time getting nic buzz after such a long time.

Not saying it's bad, i wouldn't mind passing my VV/VW to my dad but he doesn't want to use..

here & now
I like to have both available depending on my mood. On some days I prefer infrequent regulated hits but on other days where I chain-vape, I'd prefer mech mods where its power slowly depletes so I won't get a headache, if that makes sense. But that said, I still lean more towards mech mods for its smaller form factor & reliability. My 1st PV was an imitation X6 which still works flawlessly today whereas my lemon SVD started auto-firing after 4 days' of use & has since been used only for comparing ohms with my multimeter (naturally with my dumb luck, the vendor I got it from never responded to my emails & subsequently closed shop a week after). Still if there is a chance, I'd love to get my hands on a DNA powered device just for the added convenience.:vapor:

It is not necessarily mech mod produced great flavour and vapor, Provari, DNA and some good VV/VW are giving that TH, flavour and vapor with a good tank like KLF

Even a evod or Ego on mini PT can give you TH, taste and vapor; recoiling mini PT using Nr-r -Nr too can produce nice clouds but definitely can't compare using a DNA with KFL

Try experimenting, you will know what I mean

i owned an evic before and now have some mech. Thou mech hits well, but need to tweek properly to get what u want.

As evic is not the best digi mod, so initially mech is like heaven to me.

After many troubleshooting session, i think mech is still great. But it does not gives u a stable vap becoz battery power degenerate. U get the voltage drop. Mech mod u also need to get the ohms right as well. With all these factors then u can achieve the heavenly vap but for a short while. And u need to be an expert in coiling

However after much research, i think dna30 is the zeus of all mod. U dun have to be a gd coiler. U juz adjust the voltage on the mod. It is so much simpler. When batt degenerate, u adjust setting on the mod to get still gd vap. Now i m trying to get my hands on one

lol. agreed on the half past six coils.

apologise as that was using mobile and again, mobile difficult to say everything.

well, agreed that to get a good vap need to have at least some standards of coilings. however, pple who do not do research or trial and error on the coilings and do on mech mods, they wont get the best vap that they want.

eg.

KF lite plus -> 28awg, 1.4mm, 8 coils, about 1.7-1.8ohms, single coil. on a 3.7V, it gives a nice smooth vap(fruity juice)
KF lite plus -> 26awg, 2mm, 5 coils, about 0.8ohms, single coil. on a 3.7V, gives a solid vap (menthol juice)
aqua -> 28awg, 2mm, 9 coils, about 0.8ohms, dual coils, on a 3.7v, gives a nice smooth vap (fruity juice)
aqua -> 26awg , 2mm, 9 coils, about 0.4-0.5ohms, dual coils, on a 3.7v, gives a solid vap (menthol juice)

so actually if uses the dna, because the watts can be adjusted, even if they dun like a 0.8ohms on 3.7V, they can adjust to decrease the voltage to make it seemed like 1.7ohms on 3.7V. (not sure if I am making sense here, :))

but basically, what I mean is that for noob, no need to re-coil and re-coil over and over again. but then one man meat another's poison :)
some like the hobby of coiling to get the perfect vap :)

I learn thru this way :)

even my friends ask me coil to get 1.4 ohms on a V4.
I estimated and immediately did for him using 30awg, 9 coils, 2mm. end up quite close to my estimation without calculator. I get 1.37ohms
so depends what your hobby is :)

now abit lazy, so wanna try dna

one more thing, i agree also, the wicking plays a big part as well. hahahaha
