7 best mech mods

Mech mods, short for mechanical mods, are devices used in the world of vaping.They are related to Building Sets, Building Toys, Toys Games only in the sense that they are often used as a hobby or pastime by individuals interested in vaping. Here is some information about mech mods:

  1. Basic Functionality: A mech mod is a type of vaping device that lacks the electronic circuitry and safety features typically found in regulated mods. It consists of a metal tube or box with a battery compartment and a connection point for attaching an atomizer (a device that vaporizes e-liquid).

  2. No Electronics: Unlike regulated mods, mech mods do not have a chipset to regulate voltage or wattage. When you press the button, it directly connects the battery to the atomizer, which heats up the coil inside the atomizer to vaporize the e-liquid.

  3. Simplicity: Mech mods are prized for their simplicity and durability. They have fewer parts that can fail, making them reliable if used correctly.

  4. Safety Concerns: Mech mods can be dangerous if not used with caution. Because there are no safety features, users must have a good understanding of battery safety, coil building, and Ohm's Law. Using the wrong type of battery or building coils with too low resistance can lead to battery venting or explosions.

  5. Customization: Enthusiasts often appreciate mech mods for their aesthetic appeal and customization options. They come in various designs and materials, such as stainless steel, copper, and brass. Users can also customize the appearance with different grips, engravings, and finishes.

  6. Maintenance: Maintaining a mech mod involves regular cleaning to ensure good electrical connections and the removal of any e-liquid residue. Regular inspection of the battery for damage or wear is also essential for safety.

  7. Legal Considerations: The use of mech mods may be subject to local regulations and restrictions, as vaping laws vary by region. Always be aware of and comply with local vaping regulations.

  8. Experienced Users: Mech mods are generally recommended for experienced vapers who understand the principles of vaping, battery safety, and Ohm's Law. Novice vapers are often encouraged to start with regulated mods, which offer built-in safety features.

In summary, mech mods are unregulated vaping devices known for their simplicity, durability, and customization options. However, they come with inherent risks due to the lack of safety features, making them more suitable for experienced vapers who prioritize safety and have a solid understanding of vaping principles.

User questions & answers

Question: Will this replace a scuf controller
Answer: Can work just like a Scuf. Tournament mode has just the paddles activated. Mod mode has the paddles and mods activated. I actually like the paddle placement of this better then my Scuf.
Question: Will it come with a paper telling me how to activate the mods and do I need any thing to activate the mods like a separate sold wire
Answer: A short update on this: Collective Minds have been busy making Firmware Updates for the Dominator, so once you've updated the Dominator (1.40), now you actually CAN remap EVERYTHING (except Share and Options) to the paddles, including the PS Button and the Triggers. You can also swap buttons on the fly (X=O or even X=RT) with the built in remapping in Tournament Mode. You need a Windows PC to update the Dominator. For more info, an updated Manual and How-To's visit their website http://collectiveminds.ca/shop/playstation/ps4/strikepack-fps-dominator/ and go to the Downloads Section (scroll down).

Answer: The HumanCentric PS4 Mount for PS4 Orginal (2013 - mid 2016 Model) + 2 Controller Mounts Bundle does NOT come with a PS4 or PS4 controllers.
Question: do you need a pc to map the buttons or can you do it straight threw the ps

User questions & answers

Question: mac compatible
Answer: YES! OF course! However, the command keys I'm not sure on, as I'm not a big Mac user myself but yes it is compatible
Question: Please someone give me some details about the Reddragon K552 KUMARA mechanical keyboard, build / feel / overall performance? thanks
Answer: It's sturdy AF and kinda heavy so it doesn't slide around your desk. I've had mine for several months now and haven't noticed any issues. It is very satisfying to type on. I really enjoy the clicky blue switches. I play all sorts of games including FPSs and unlike the other person who answered it doesn't bother me at all to play games on this awesome KB. I've been told by coworkers that I'm NOT light/gentle on my keyboard but I also type hella fast. If you type fast and aren't light on the fingers this KB will create a noticeable din. The RGB is well lit and I had fun playing with all the light features including the one memory slot to completely customize every single keycap's light. You cannot custom animate the light for each key but the pre-installed options available seem plenty since you can cycle through all the colors including one option for all the colors and this works well on all the different animations. For example, there's a matrix style 'rain' animation which you could keep as classic green or the other several colors available, OR you can go all colors in which case you'll see the rain animation but each drop is changing color as it moves down the keys and the lingering/fading trails are also going through RGB.
Question: What is the exact usb cable length
Answer: It’s 6ft 3 inches
Question: Is this one of those keyboards that has the really satisfying clicking when you type? I felt one at best buy and I loved it
Answer: There are 2 distinct aspects to this: There is an audible click like the Cherry Blue-s or their clones. Depending on the switch used. the keyboard and the keycap, this may start out really pleasing, or you ( or your frields at the next desk) may get tired of it. Then there is a tactile bump. Most people like this. The sound itself has 2 components: The click, which is high pitched, and the "tock" as the key is hitting the keybed. This is a flat, unpleasant sound to most. The click and the tock combine into a single noise as you hit the key(s) typically pretty fast. So you end up with a "Thck" sound. After a while, some people who like the Cherry blue type clicky keyboards end up wanting something tactile, but a bit quieter. I found through experimentation, that I can eliminate the 2nd component, the bottom-out "tock" by adding o-rings to the keycap stems. Either a 0.4mm. or double 0.2mm rings. This brings the Cherry blue sound into a more civilized and pleasant realm. This is where I am at, Tried some quiet tactile switches , e.g. Halo Clear-s , and those are not tactile enough for me. I modeified a couple of keybpards ) A coolermaster 10kless that came with genuine cherry blues, and the K552 ( which came with the Outemu blue Cherry mx blue clones. Added the o-rings, and the result is quite satisfying. Still clicky, but overall more quiet and pleasant sounding. The Captain O-ring 0.4mm blue o-rings qoeked well for me. Talking abuot sounds, the K552 ( and also its full size brother, the K551) adds a metallic ringing echo to the key sound.

User questions & answers

Question: Does lego make a pirates of the carribean "black pearl" in a bottle? that would be really cool
Answer: Lego made a poly bag mini Black Pearl - set 30130. We have wondered if it would look good inside this set’s bottle. Might be worth a shot.
Question: Will the bottle hold rum
Answer: Sadly, no. Due to the bottle just being built of legos, it is not perfectly sealed. It would just leak out.
Question: Would an adult male enjoy this gift
Answer: Perfect for an adult male. I’m still waiting for the “women’s” version (in pink) to come out so I can build one. Until then all I can do is dare to dream and curse my weaker and inferior female abilities.
Question: Is the ship big enough to sail from america to france
Answer: I don't know about America to France, but it certainly can sail a sea of 1x1 studs from our 21042 Statue of Liberty to 21019 Eiffel Tower! (The ship actually measures about 3" high, 5.5" long, and 2" wide.) Happy building, Emily LEGO® Service
