What about just plain old mech mods will they ever make a huge come back?
Or do you think they are actually dying and will be totally gone soon which i hope it wont ever happen =/

Will mechs make a comeback? I don't know. My gut tells me likely not, surely not to the popularity they once had. Why? I think these days many are happy with all the pod devices out there. The manufacturers sure are flooding the market with them. On ECF we see several vendors posting about new pods daily.

I don't have anything against pods, I do not own any, but I do think they have a place. And if they help people to quit smoking then I'm all for that.

I do not think mechs will completely die off though. There will always be those who prefer mechs. But, these days they are a niche in the vaping community. Frankly the majority of vaper's do not want to fiddle with their vape. They want something easy. And that's okay.

If you like mechs, I believe now is the time to stock-up. A few mechs and a handful of RBA's, well maintained, will last well beyond our lifetimes.

They're not necessarily going anywhere, they can still be made easily enough if they do.

Just need a good engineers that works with naval brass and some technical drawings for the switch, as that's the most complex part.

That's for tube mods though, box mods are considerably easier to make.

    A mech tube mod?

    A co-worker had one - used it every day and likely is still using it to this day.

    Recall that in a at least decently designed mech, there is not much (if anything) to break or wear out. :)

    If you were looking for one I'd check anyplace that sold USED mods or simply DIY.

    I remembered a mod by Uwell that came out 3 years ago. The Nunchaku 2. It's 21700, regulated and was sold as either a kit or a mod. It may be harder to find it somewhere these days though.

    Try searching for it with a .UK to get one from the UK. I'm sure there's some in the European countries too.

    As for payment, a lot of stores had to ditch PayPal when PayPal decided to toss vaping stores under the bus. So payment is probably via credit/debit cards. If you are unsure of a store, check for reviews via Google and here. There's always prepaid credit cards too.
