Which cheap mech has your favorite switch?

hcigar caravela with magnet upgrade, its a real robust switch but still really smooth.

My Launcher clone is great. Recessed, smooth and just the right amount of resistance from the spring.

Poldiac,flush stealth magnet side button.

Poldiac,flush stealth magnet side button.

does this mod have a lock for the switch? I've been looking at it.

So the general consensus seems to be magnetic switch upgrades are the way to go?
I'm thinking about getting magnets for my nemesis, I want either a magneto or an nzonic(magneto seems to be taking the lead), and I've been thinking about a poldiac or 69...
keep them coming ladies and gents

Magnets are better. Can be tuned firmer w/ shims. Don't scratch with button spin. Now if I can only find reasonable priced magnets for origin and caravela mods.

Havnt tried the clone versions but the chi you and king mod both have nice switches to me(I dont own these). short light throw and smooth. although a little to little throw for me to carry it in my car. the switch on te sentinel m16 is great imo, very smooth, fire no matter what part of the button you hit and has just enough tension and travel to make it a good car carry device that you dont need to lock. sadly the button backs out unless you lock tite it, so that sucks.

my brother has a nemesis clone and the switched sucked at first but two weeks later it feels great, idk what happened but its worlds better. the locking ring is still a cheaply made and designed pile of crap but the rest is good. his magnets are waiting at his dorm right now. cant wait to see what difference they make.

so far travel sentinel clone has it, for at home where i dont have to be careful the king and chi you switch is better.

The locking of the button is done by just twisting the ''shirt''..the the short tube around the button,best lockin system out there.

Magnets last forever ,springs lose tension over time,they wear and tear.

I've been tweaking my Hcigar SS Nemesis and found the optimum switch setup (for me). I am using 3 DX magnets, a FT kick1, an 18650 flat top battery, the small "beauty" ring and a 1mm battery magnet on the top of the battery as a spacer.

The gap between the button and tube is about 1.5mm when open, less than .5mm when pressed.

I am using a Protank2 with Aerotank base and the spacer might vary with other battery, atomizer and kick combinations. The switch is firm enough to not misfire with a heavy atomizer, has a short throw and sticks out only enough to allow firing.

Have you measured spacer magnet voltage drop?

Like I said, I use a Protank and VW kick, but haven't noticed anything. As the battery top and magnet are steel, I wouldn't think it affects very much if at all.
