    Hi everyone,

    I am kind of newbie in this forum. I need some suggestion about mechanical mod.

    Could you guys please suggest me about the good mechanical mod with the quality and fair price.

    Now I using just ovale, it seem to be not enough for me because the battery and liquid run out very fast. I need something bigger and better

    Thank you, ^^

    A mechanical mod won't be what you are really looking for coming from an ovale. I would suggest an MVP 2 kit it comes with a tank and charger and the battery shoiuld last you 14-24 hours easily. You can get one from Micky's shop here in the forum for 1400 baht and that would be a major improvement over what you currently have.

    iTaste MVP V2.0 starter kit ** out of stock

    He's out of stock at the moment but you can contact him or Big Bypass ( he carries them as well but think he's out too ) and see when he is getting more in.

    What type of Ovale kit are you using for vaping? There are several members on here who swear by their eVic Supremes, which is a regulated mod. I've never gotten into mechanical mods...prefer regualated mods & clearo tanks for ease of use and the safety factor they provide. Besides the eVic Supreme, ProVari's (from ProVape) & DNA/rDNA's (from Vapor Shark) are very good, and readily available if you're in the US.

    The Mechanical Battalion will be along soon to point you in the right direction if you're set on going mechanical.

    Thank you Talen and Siam Deisel, I just arrive in US for three days, It seem to be different in the US vapor community. they carry big e cigarette (I ask them they said it mechanical mod). I would search for MVP 2 , provari or DNA. but i really new for the vape community. I will try to check around and see what is the best choice. :very good:

    If you're in the States then there should be plenty of shops there for you to check out such devices.
    Where in the US are you?

    Where are you staying? If you are planning to buy some stuff you have plenty of joices online. Or if you stay in a bigger city for sure there is a vapeshop somewere were you could test some stuff like mods and juice.

    E-juices from Good Life Vapor (GLV), Halo (Halo) and Mt. Baker Vapor (MBV) are good, high quality juices. I'd suggest checking their websites for a list of vape shops in the LA area that carry their juices so you can go sample a few.

    Here's the link to Vapor Shark: Vaporshark. Can't go wrong with an rDNA (get a skin for it) and a few Aspire Nautilus & Mini-Nautilus tanks...only get the BVC coils, though. Actually, the prices from 3Avape for the tanks & extra BVC coils is very good so you might want to wait to load up until you get back to LOS.

    Whatever you do DO NOT BUY MBV or GOOd LIFE e juice...because then you will be addicted to great flavor and be chasing the dragon all the time and cursing the gods of vaping when you run out of Butterscotch....bastards

    Get a nice regulated device clone with a tank atomizer to use out and about and in bed, plenty to choose from, and a mechanical mod with a dripper for home use. could probably get all the required gear for <$150 in the US
    I got my first mechanical mod today, love it.

    Go in a shop that looks legit to you, doesn't have to be super amazing shop, tell them why you want to upgrade from your Ovale set up, tell them about MVP2 for instance and ask for their advice.

    If you are not sure, don't buy it, come back here to post what they advise you and we will tell you if it sounds reasonnable.

    I tend to trust vape shop as it is very often owned and managed by passionate vapers. Exceptions do exists indeed.

    As for the juices, don't look at the brand. A serious shop will have a lot of juices for you to try before you make your selection.

    You are lucky to be in the US where it is openly legal, take advantage of it. The choices is immense !

    Hey I'm in Anaheim if you need any help (just send a pm). I also have a ridiculous amount of mods and tanks [​IMG]

    if you want to try anything. I think you will find that different opinions on a regulated vs. mechanical device. I pretty much only use mechanical. Nearly every regulated device I have the circuitry has failed. That is why I use mechanical (because they are simple and won't break). If you are going to shops in Southern California, they mostly lean towards mechanicals.

    Is there any particular feature you are looking for in a device? Small size, made of a particular metal, etc.? There are alot of options to choose from, so it may be easier if you explain what you really want to help narrow the choices. :)

    Hi everyone,

    I just went to one vape shop today and I even can not remember the name T_T , It seem like everything look news to me like product, juices etc. They also carry a lot of mechanical mod, provari, ego twist and more (I can not remember the name but look like a box which variety of colors). They said the best choice is mechanical mod or provari with kayfun(What is kayfun??) but I need to learn to rebuild which require cotton and wire. I really have no idea what are they talking about. I ask about nautilus tank too, they said it good but you need to buy replacement coil (What replacement coil is??). The best way to safe money is something that rebuildable. you will get better taste and more cloud. (Cloud is like a smoke I guess)

    By the way, I had chance to try many kind of juices and I found one name CRFT, Strawberry blonde = strawberry+custard. Super good though.

    I still hesitate which mechanical mod should I buy. It seem to be expensive here, price range is around $180 - $250. Kayfun is $100. so all setup would reach $300. That a lot for me.

    Thank you Submaniac, All of your devices look nice and elegant. LOL How can you take care all of it? I like the gold one with the wing, third device from the left.
