What mechanical mods are strongly recommended?

I am a fan of my K100. Cheap and gets the job done. Against the Smoktech Bolt.

No Bolt - you need to spend as much as it costs to make it safe. Really scary how those things are wired.

I own a CalModz Hero and it is fantastic. Recently I replaced my wife's old mech mod with the smok Magneto and she loves it. I played with it myself and found it to be a very good mod as well--especially given it's price point. I absolutely love the button and the safety design on that thing.

I've finally decided to order Launcher V2 Telescopic. Was considering Nemesis until how I saw several things that gave users difficulties with battery coming off.

I got a wooliston in on a trade and this thing is SOLID. Its a magneto clone with a magnetic switch on the bottom and is made of stainless steel (thick). It telescopes from an 18350 up to an 18650 (probably more but those are the only two batteries I mess with.)

This thing looks every bit as tough as my Provari and is my backup in the unlikely event of a failure or loss.

Strongly recommended? But not cheap would be a Reo Grand. They can already sub ohm, but in a week or so they are being built to really handle sub ohm - at least in the 0.4 ohm range. Older models can be retrofit with the new sub ohm parts.

Especially important for some people: I hate bottom button mods. The Reo puts the fire button back on the top of the device.

And there is nothing bad to say about the ease of combining liquid feed with an RDA. The only down side is the number of RDA's built to work with a bottom liquid feed system are limited. However what is available works very well.

I'm a top side button person, and have been using a Sigelei 24 for months now, but considering seriously getting the Poldiac clone. While I'd love to have the real deal I can't afford it. Another one I'd love to have but can't afford is the Roller, but it will have to wait till I get richer. I just never could get comfortable with the bottom button thing.

I would recommend NOT getting the Poldiac clone!! I have the real Poldiac (great mod) and thot having a couple of clones would be great, since i liked the side button so much. Got a couple off of Fasttech. The threading is absolutely dreadful, you can hardly change a battery. And, the buttons fall off. I will not use the things. All of my other mods are clones, and they are fine. My Astro clone is my fave clone. But that Poldiac clone--do not waste your money!!! IMHO

Nice! Are they going to be available on the reosmods website for ordering as a new unit this week? I assume this is for the metal reos only right? It is too off topic for this thread put would you mine PMing me your favorite bottom feeding RBAs? I only know of the rb2 and the cyclone.

I have the Asmart Poldiac clone and love it with reservations. I needed to polish the silver post and contacts in the button assembly to get it to fire consistently. Also the threads on the tube are too short and I needed to add some Teflon tape to stop it from popping out. I wouldn't recommend it as someone's first and only mech but now that I have it working I love it.

The Silver Bullet and Reo both are very high quality mods and should last forever. If you're looking for a mech mod to take through the vapocalypse with you, look at those two.

I was going to suggest the Super T ELA (for telescopic) or Simplicity for fixed length tube... I've had one of their older models (precise+) for 3 years now, daily use, have dropped it 2 stories, have dropped it in med, has been run over by a forklift and it still wors flawlessly... has a lifetime warranty as well (which includes scratched finish)..rhodium plated contacts...
And now they've released their own rebuildable that replaces the top cap and turns it into a hybrid...

So it is probably the most versatile, I've seen to work with about any battery or topper out there...

Astro clone from fastech.com is good looking and it has a good hand hold...
