Which cheap mech has your favorite switch?

[inanitydefined]

I'm finding myself going all mechanical these days. And I am a bit of a switch junkie. I love a good switch. So far my favorite has been my hcigar nemesis but I found myself liking the switch on the smok magneto. I wasn't the biggest fan of the switch on my hcigar chi you, so I traded it off.
I'm wondering what other cheap mechs have good switches. What's y'alls favorites? Keep it cheap for me, nothing over $100 please, though i'm sure super t is bound to get some love. The cheaper the better too. nothing beats finding a $20 mod that becomes your daily driver.

Hcigar Nemesis with magnetic switch upgrade. ~$40 total.

I've heard the magnetic upgrade is worth doing. I really like my nemesis and will probably end up with a couple more in different finishes.

but variety is the spice of life. spend my money for me folks! tell me what mechs you love!

+1 for the magnetic upgrade

I haven't experienced the Nemi clone with a magnet upgrade, but I can tell you the Magneto has a pretty sweet switch. Only one I like more that it is my Stingray.

The Sigelei 19b switch that I had to mod into oblivion to get juuuuust right. There will never be a bottom switch that can rival it in my book.
A friend asked me to sell it to him and I just laughed. It was a $29 mod at the time and I spent countless hours tweaking it until it performed just the way I wanted it. I couldn't even put a price on it lol.

I've got an astro clone and love the switch in it. Far superior to my previous mod, a legacy.

The Kamry K100 switch is very smooth and easy to use for a spring loaded switch IMO.
I also agree with the magnet upgrade for the Nemesis

The older 25 dollar astro clone from FT.

 

[Bad Ninja]

King clone.
Sanded shaft, smooth like butter. $26 and 5 min work.


Running a close second is the h200 magnetic bottom button.
29$, magnetic switch, telescopic.

While china nemi switch produces low voltage drop, it can be very loosey goosey and very crunchy depending on what day of the week it was made. Magnet upgrade will not fix a poorly manufactured china nemi switch.

My best switch is ehpro caravela; it is a 23mm mod. Hits hard, smooth actuation and not overly loosey goosey.

I've got an Hcigar two-tone nemmy clone (without the magnets, they didn't have them in stock), a Hcigar Pisces clone and a FT Private V2 clone. By far the V2 has the best button. The Nemmy is scratchy as hell (I don't think magnets will fix that) and the locking ring on the Pisces sucks.

I'd keep an eye on the classifieds for a used Paps 2.5. Extremely nice button. With the release of version 3, some may want to get rid of their 2.5 for a fair price.

Hcigar ss Sentinel m16

And now for something completely different...

My favorite is switch is currently a 69 clone from FT. But I've seen multiple complaints about it here. Maybe I got the only good one ever made.

Good to know factory doesn't cull the good ones. Kidding but QC not quite at Toyota level.

my best switches on my affordables are on my ehpro maraxus and my hcigar caravela. Both fire every time with ease but the vela clone could be a little snugger than it is. No issues though. Love them both!!

I really like the switch on my magneto, obviously since its magnetic its very smooth but still has enough resistance that it wont fire if you set it on the switch
