Does regulated mod affect battery drain?
2) Alternatively, if you’re using a regulated mod the resistance of your coil doesn’t affect the drain on your battery. Instead, the wattage you choose to vape affects how much power you draw from your battery. Obviously the higher the wattage you vape at, the higher the draw on your battery will be.
Rebuilding Atomizers – Step One – The Wrap
I’m happy to report that I was given the green light the other day to continue on with this series on learning how to rebuild atomizers. The series will, hopefully, teach you not only how to rebuild any atomizer you choose to work with, but to also show you that it does take a lot of talent to do it, only the desire and commitment to do so.
Methodology
The way of I am going to teach is is to break it down into various exercises, to assign, not homework, but an exercise that when you complete it you will be able to easily apply that skill when the time comes. The first, primary, yet most important part of rebuilding an atomizer is learning to make good wraps.
Wrapping A Coil
In its basic terms, rebuilding an atomizer is the simple act of removing the burned out wick, which is material wrapped with a coil/wire, and putting another one in its place.
Preparation
When the time comes to really wrap some wire around a real wick you’ll have learned about preparing your wick, whether your wick is made up of stainless steel mesh rolled up into a tube shape, or some other wick material properly prepared, but I don’t even want you to have to worry about these things right now.
Two Ways To Wrap
Guide To Vaping – There are two methods I use to wrap a coil. One way is to take a wooden match that you would use to start a fire in your fireplace, about 6 inches long or so, and the smaller wooden match that you would see in a box of matches that you can carry around in your pocket. These are the sizes we want to start with.

What happens if you vape at a low ohm?
If you level too low, your vape could malfunction, overheat, or worse, explode.
What is a mod in atomizers?
As I said before, a mod is fundamentally a tube with a battery inside. At one end, a switch, the other, a connection to attach an atomiser to, which complete a circuit when a firing pin is pressed. The choice lies in what materials you choose for the wire, metal, whether you want a dual or single coil build etc. but you can read more on that later.
Why are mech mods dangerous?
One of the biggest dangers with mech mods is a higher potential to overheat, or for the batteries to explode due to poorly built or maintained circuitry. But there are ways you can combat this. Firstly, make sure your mod has proper ventilation.
How to put coils in RDA?
Next, put your coil into your RDA. You can do this by unscrewing the top of your RDA posts and putting the positive lead into one hole and the other in the negative. Alternatively, you can wrap the wire/leads around the screws before re-tightening , but be careful not to snap the leads with overzealous tightening. Important: the coils should not be touching anything, the cap, posts, whatever, as that could cause a short.
What is mechanical mod?
Mechanical mods are, essentially, a bit of a paradox. In essence, they’re the most basic type of vaping device on the market. Largely comprising of just a container with a battery inside, the fanciest the technology gets is the circuit connecting the base, the atomiser and the connector, completed when the firing button is pressed.
How to connect battery to mech mod?
It’s all about making connections. Ensure your battery is well connected to the top and bottom pin when the firing button is pressed.
Do vapes end up in mods?
Many vapers never graduate beyond the cig-a-likes and standard vapes, using their vapes only as a means to an end, a relatively healthier alternative to smoking. But for those that catch the bug, and start investigating how to create a more powerful or tailored vape experience, mechanical mods are eventually where they will end up.
What is a mechanical mod?
Mechanical Mods or “Mech Mods” are one of the oldest and most simple ways to vape. However, they come with a few caveats for becoming a proficient user….
Who tests batteries for vaping?
Mooch independently tests batteries specifically for vaping. He is an engineer and has done a lot of legwork for all of us. If the battery is not on his list, don’t use it! Many batteries have exaggerated ratings, especially when it comes to amperage. So do yourself a favor and do some research before you try any battery in a mech.
How long do mech mods last?
The biggest appeal is the simplicity of these mods. Not to mention longevity. A well-made mech mod will last virtually forever if you keep it clean and maintained because there are no wires or electronics involved.
What was the first tube style mech?
The first “tube style” mechs were modified flashlights! Made from high powered 18650 flashlights, these were usually modified in a way where there was a copper switch added to the bottom, and a drilled out section on top to fit your atomizer. Have you ever wondered where the word “ Mod ” came from? Its because the first cloud chasing vapes were “modified” from other items! This lead to many people becoming “Modders” and popularity took off.
Why are Kennedy mods so expensive?

Prices and quality vary depending on the mod, though these ones would be a great place to start.
Do mechanical mods have safety features?
With mechanical mods, there are rarely any safety features. This sounds scary, but if you do your research and keep safety first, then you shouldn’t have anything to worry about. First and foremost, it is important to know how to use Ohm’s law. I always build on a regulated device or an ohm reader.
