Exactly this: what are the best made mech mod clones out today? What make and model and made by who? Authentic mods are expensive and hard to buy even if you have the extra cash to throw down. When it comes down to a mechanical mod, imo, it needs to be made with quality materials and built to last. All the fancy engravings are not needed. That is just adding individuality, which is nice but not a necessity. Built to fire. So it should be made with the best electrical contacts. It really is just a tube that is holding the battery and making it fire. BASIC switch. Clones are never going away now but you never know what materials they're really made of. Authentics are high quality materials, in most cases, but pretty much prototypes. But over the $200 mark is getting a little overboard. So, in everybody's experiences, what are the best mech mod clone out? ?

OP:
There are several companies that offer very well made clones, however quality will vary depending on product.

HCigar, Infinite,Tobeco, Hot Technologies, are all good companies.
Rainbow heaven, EHPro,and CiGreen have some great offerings as well.

I would suggest finding a style/mod you like first and then finding out who makes the best clone of that particular mod.

^^THIS^^

Hcigar may well make the best Nemesis clone, but that doesn't mean they make the best Caravela or Stingray.

Clone manufacturers that are generally considered the highest quality are Hcigar and Infinite across the board.

Not really across the board, as all the companies I listed have top reviewed products in their line up.
( although we are close to splitting hairs at this point)
I will say HCigar raised the bar on quality clones, but many have caught on.
The HOT tech products are identical to HCigar in quality.
Certain Tobeco products are in fact better made than their HCigar counterparts, and the few EHPro devices I have are incredibly accurate and very well made.

It just depends on the specific product.

By "across the board" what I really meant was that they consistently make clones that are high quality, not necessarily that they are always the best.

^^^^yeahhhhh


Infinite- best mods I've seen. I don't hear much about them.

..seen a few clones.:)

Atomizers.. I'm impressed with ehpro kayfun lite+..drip tip wobbles... a little bumpy first versions with airflow.. but later ones are dialed in.. probably goes for everything cloned. Eh pro didn't :censored:it up too bad...tobeco has upset me on every occasion it seems.. mods and atomizers.

Ehpro Valkyrie clone is awesome!
Tobeco Nemmy, brass stingray and hades are awesome as well (hades came with extra springs and magnets for the switch).
Hot tech brass Nemmy is flawless, as are their kings, chi's, and Caravelas.

I try to research the clones before I buy, and I spend a lot of time zooming in on bad product pics. Lol

Because I've tried to buy a few different Authentics, they're always sold out and no word if they will be back. I like the 26650 mechs, and now the clones are out. So I figured to ask this community to share the best made clones because depending on who makes it it could be junk. This is the place to find the best info, because we're all experimenting.

Why does it have to be a clone? Maybe work out how much you want to spend and research the best mechs available for that price or below. You may still end up with a clone, or you might end up with something like the Magneto.

I would love to get an authentic stingray, or the hades, but good luck. Now the clones are out so why not save some money. Some clones are good, some not. I have no idea which. Who Makes the best nemesis?

IMO infinite makes the best stingray. I'm sure others will agree. That is the one in The link I listed.
You get yours off eBay? I'm leary, I got burned last time I bought off eBay. You never know what's gonna show up in the mail box. It says they have 10+ but have sold 40. I'm not sure what that's supposed to mean I'm not much of an eBay fan, I'll message the sender.

Many authentic modders have a home forum that they will post these updates too...also Facebook, manufacturer websites, and sometimes the authorized resellers. And there's very few things you can't get from the Classifieds on some forum or another.

Yes I did. From the seller I sent you the link to. I also contacted the seller before I made the purchase. It is absolutely a authentic infinite stingray. Have no worries!
