Hi everyone!  
Perhaps I should be embarrassed with a year of vaping experience, but I don’t really understand the dangers of mech mods.  
What should I pay attention to? Do I need an unprotected battery? Are known settings safe, e.g., for a 1.2 [ohm](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/183?silent=true#ellenlls-4) [coil](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/187?silent=true#coil-16) at 10-12W? Can I adjust this without problems?  
Or where can the use of a mech go wrong, with the dangers they warn about?

Úúúúú. A protected battery is highly recommended because you don’t know when the battery will discharge. There is a risk of deep discharge. Batteries safely operate down to 3.2 volts, and normal chargers recognize them up to this point. Below that, the battery is considered dead. At 2.75V, they offer an explosive experience. Chip-based mods will no longer allow use at 3.3V. The wattage you paired with 1.2 [Ohm](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/183?silent=true#ellenlls-4) might give a harsher feel than you’re used to. With mechanical mods, calculating resistance is key. V (voltage) is W (power), I (current) is A (Amps), R (resistance) is [Ohm](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/183?silent=true#ellenlls-4). V=I x R. The battery we use intermittently delivers 1.5 times more Amps than in normal operation. E.g., a 25 Amp battery intermittently delivers 35 Amps, better ones up to 40.

Hi!

One thing’s for sure, you won’t be adjusting wattage on it, as there’s no regulated electronics… Everything depends on the [coil](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/187?silent=true#coil-16) you put in and the battery’s charge level… surely someone will explain this with all sorts of [Ohm](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/183?silent=true#ellenlls-4)’s Law calculations, but when I dug into it, because I need one like this too, this is what I distilled from it, simplified:

You need a protected battery

I recommend checking out the channel. Blackie extensively covers mechanical mods, discussing their theoretical background and building safer FET-based mechanical mods.

I can recommend semi-mech (fél mech) series. Tauren Tanderhead, Ambition Luxem, Trishul, Fuse etc. etc.

I have one, although it’s not a tube mod, I just tried it and I didn’t dare to use it!! I just liked it!! Is this a good, average, or crap type??

Very nice, clean design. Is there a mod that measures resistance? Then you can build whatever you want, measure it, try it out, or use a [coil](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/187?silent=true#coil-16) calculator. It can be easily used. Maybe the [coil](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/187?silent=true#coil-16) you are using now, e.g. 1.3 [Ohm](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/183?silent=true#ellenlls-4), is around 12-13.5 watts by default, but you only use it at 9.5-10w. Since you can’t adjust it, there are 2 options: 1. You get used to it being a bit stronger, or 2. You build a [coil](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/187?silent=true#coil-16) with higher resistance. In [MTL](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/187?silent=true#mtl-25), a battery will surely last 2-2.5 days, but you don’t know the limit of its power. This is why a protected battery is recommended. Since there is no regulation, it drains the battery’s power to the extreme. You feel where the limit is, but you have to experience it a lot. 10 out of 10 dentists and plastic surgeons recommend using a protected battery. 🤣

Hello everyone!

In the very beginning, mechanical mods were widespread. I never used protected batteries. I never had problems with over-discharge; when the battery reaches 3.6 volts, it’s already significantly noticeable on the vape that it needs charging and replacement. There’s one thing to pay attention to, and that is not to build a short circuit. In all other cases, it works perfectly.

Have a nice day everyone! 😉 🙂

Great phrasing, Atis! You can happily vape with non-massive claptons above 1 [ohm](https://vaperina.cc/t/-/183?silent=true#ellenlls-4). An extra piece of INFO, if someone wants to be sure: don’t use Sony VTC batteries in them, because those don’t have PTC protection (against overheating).

Hey there!  
And what’s missing from the mech mod’s story is that it needs occasional pampering, the switch contacts need cleaning sometimes. But otherwise, it’s an indestructible piece, as long as a tracked vehicle doesn’t run over it. 😁

I even got onto WD40 there… tastier than quite a few liquids 🙄🤣 but then I gave up on totally zero-protection mech mods. And in the beginning, I even built them back then (from metal flashlights 🙄😁).
