About The Detailed Guide to Mechanical Mods

Do you know what a mechanical mod is? Today I'd like to give you a detailed introduction to mechanical mods and offer you some suggestions and precautions on the use of a mechanical mod.

1. What is A Mechanical Mod?
(1) Definition of Mechanical Mods
The mods we are familiar with, just like I mentioned in the Best Vape Mods 2024, are Regulated Mods contrary to the mechanical mods. A mechanical mod is a classic vape mod that lacks electronic components, such as chips, circuit boards, or screens. It is designed to deliver the raw battery power to the atomizer.

(2) Basic Structure of A Mechanical Mod

Compared to common regulated mods, the structure of the mechanical mods is easy like hell. It is composed of a tube or box-shaped body, a 510 connector at the top, and a tail cap usually with a power button. You can put in one or two batteries. There are two kinds of mechanical mods, tube mechanical mod and box mechanical mod. 

(3) Suitable Atomizers for Mechanical Mods
Given that mechanical mods are simple in structure and leave much room for DIY, most atomizers, including RTAs (Rebuildable Tank Atomizer) and RDAs (Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer), are compatible with mechanical mods, as long as you double-check the coil resistance and specification of connectors.

2. How to Use A Mechanical Mod Safely?
A mechanical mod usually has no chipset and other electronic stuff. As a result, all you need is to press the button. But there is a lot you need to learn and keep in mind all the time as you need to take care of everything about your mod rather than the chips.

(1) Battery Safety First
Get used to the loss of multiple protection by advanced chips. You need to check the status of your battery regularly. Using a damaged battery could lead to short circuits or even more dangerous battery failures.

(2) Pay attention to the Ohm's Law
Ohm's Law is about the relationship between power, voltage, current, and resistance. It is fundamental to determine whether your battery can handle the resistance of the coils you choose. You should calculate and limit the current you draw from the battery.

Choose A Reliable Mechanical Mod
In terms of manufacturers of mechanical mods, there are mainly two types: Homemade Mechanical Mods and Ordinary Mechanical Mods from factories. The latter is similar to other regulated mods. They are also reliable and of high quality. All the specifications and configurations of the mod will be explained and noted in the instruction book. Homemade Mech Mods are more expensive because of the materials and effort. However, they might be less stable due to a lack of tests and knowledge. 

Conclusion: Conclusion: Mechanical Mod is an unregulated device that leads to countless possibilities.
