The just mechs thread

[Timwis]

Hey bud, basics of vaping.. mechs have constant battery voltage. This means that the very first hit is at 4.2V (disregarding voltage loss through the mod) but every hit after that is lower voltage thats why you can throw big builds into a regulated device because it will just up the voltage to get the needed current flowing.

Second thing to remember is that the thicker the wire or the more mass the coil has the more power is needed to get it going(ramp up is slow on thick/chunky builds) this is why I use ribbon wire almost exclusively when using my mechs. Relatively thin thus less mass as mentioned so the ramp up is instant but its wider than round wire so the surface area for the same amount of wraps is more thus you can evaporate more juice for essentially the same coil.

I use 0.8mm x 0.3mm Ni80 ribbon and it instant clouds from the second you push the fire button.

Also mech maintenance is not just necessary its a religion once you get into mechs.

Really why i'm not a big mech user i want the same consistent vape which can't be achieved with a mech! Those new to vaping just see pics of thick, chunky, fancy coils being used on mechs and don't realise the power that they need!

Thats why I love my vtc5a’s with a .15 ribbon build.. pure unadulterated unregulated non pwm power..

Throwing a spanner in the works, there is also the balance of big clouds versus vaping time. Same Tauren solo with a 0.15 build on a Furyan with a 21700 versus same with a .3 build dramatically changes the numbers

0.15 = 92 W @25 amps will give you around 10 minutes total run time.

0.3 + 46 W @ 12.5 amps and will double your run time

I must be a quick learner because I am still new to this but am understanding more and more about why single battery mechs don't perform quite as well as the dual in series potentiometer type mods. I can get my Kennedy roundhouse to hit hard and I have the Furyan dialed in with the button tweaks I did, but the Noisy cricket and MVV II can be made to hit much harder having 8 V on tap versus 4 on a single.

10 wraps and you still get hard punches? Wow...I'm trying to understand...I put dual core claps thin wire and still don't get what you mentioning....what am I doing wrong my mechs are brand new...haven't even used them tried one with about 8 different coils it vapes like I'm vaping at 20watts with a 25r new fully charged

Some questions for you.

Do you want instant cloud production as you draw ?

How many seconds draw time ?

Are you dripping or squonk ?

VG/PG % in your juice

What % airflow ? full open ... 50% .... other ?

Do you get dry hits ?

@charln may be able to give you the best advice regarding coils!

thanks Timwis for referring me to Charln he truly know his stuff and he makes a very juicy coil...after receiving some coils from him that he just shipped to me i now have an entire new respect for mechs.....if any one wants my option charln makes stunning flavor bangers for mechs and I've tried all the mainstreams coils every variant sold in stores here in cape town...charln you rock man...!!!! @charln
