I am a fan of MCV. The all copper Overdose will run you around $170 - $220. You can buy solid silver battery contacts and magnets to replace the switch spring as well. It is a very hard hitter!

I really, REALLY like my Rage Modz parallel 18650 mech box. Hits like a train, and i have been taking full advantage of the increased amp limits on this device. I dropped it a few weeks ago and f'd something up. All i had to do was send it to them, not a single question asked, they fixed it and i had it back in my hands 7 days after i put it in the mailbox. They are a killer company. Performs outstandingly. Just one little button is all there is. I am not in love with any of my single 18650 mechs, i own a few. The Dotmod Petri is by far my favorite, and performs the best outta the group, but it's pricey.

Well, if you arent into spending a fortune on equipment ,there is always clones of which the SMPL is one of the hardest hitting tube mods i have.


For a mech box its hard to beat those home made Hammond variations using a mosfet...option how you see fit pretty much...Im adding solid copper wire and a volt meter to mine..Just waiting for the volt meter to show up...With a mech box you will get longer battery life and is safer for super low ohm coil builds.

Other than that ,either type kicks ass

Thanks a lot all of u does it matter if there's one ore to batteries in an mech mod og does it hit just the same??? And I don't care about the price I just need quality and a lot of power :);)

The hardest hitting mods are the ones with adjustable power. If power is your main concern, maybe consider a mod that allows you to crank the voltage. Being able to only adjust the resistance of the build doesn't give you as many options as being able to also adjust the voltage you're applying to the build. Just a thought.

Okay thank''s.

Stingray X is my best mech mod right now. That copper tube makes a huge difference.

As for unregulated box w/ mosfet. I would say the tuglyfe dual 18650 parallel box. Its just an amazing vape regardless of the build I throw on it.

I bought the all copper abadon box mod last week and the thing rocks. It hits hard and the batteries last for a long time being in parallel. I don't know how you could do it better. It's one of five mods I own and it one of my top two faves along side my copper Apollo. Like the above poster, I also purchased from eBay, for 35 bucks. You can't go wrong.

Ok, here's the deal:

For tube mech mods you basically have 2 things decide on when it comes to what you're calling 'power' (which is actually just conductivity and voltage drop)...
1. Hybrid or not hybrid
2. Which metal/metals (copper, brass, SS, aluminum, platings, combo-metals, etc.)

General rule-of-thumb for metal conductivity: from more to less -
1. Silver
2. Copper
3. Brass and aluminum
4. Stainless steel
(It's not *actually* that simple or straight-forward, but it's a good place to start)

Would you be able to tell the difference between (say for example) an all copper, hybrid tube mech vs an all stainless steel non-hybrid tube mech? Yes, probably...not a TON of difference...but some. Would you be able to tell the difference between the same hybrid tube mech in copper vs brass? Honestly, no. At that level we're talking voltage drop differences in the 1-3 HUNDREDTHS OF A VOLT! Anyone who claims they can feel the difference there is not being honest, IMO.

As for dual-battery box mechs - you also have 2 choices: Series or parallel. That's WAY too long of a discussion for this thread - but do look it up - it's very good knowledge to have.

In my humble opinion - based on what you're saying you want here - I agree with the poster who said you should probably just go ahead and get a dual 18650 regulated box....one that goes to 150 watts or higher. That is best and safest way to have a lot of power at your disposal. If you're not an expert coil builder and don't yet have a firm grasp on ohms law and how resistance effects amps draw and wattage, the get a device that 'knows it for you'.

PS - regardless of which device you get - PLEASE never, never, NEVER skimp on the batteries. Do battery research and buy the absolute best ones you can (with good QC, battery chemistry, high amp ratings, etc). You can never go wrong with Sony VTC 4s or 5s.

Good luck!

And don't put tanks with short 510 pins on hybrid mods. Thankfully a lot of reviewers I've noticed mention that in their reviews of tanks or drippers, that's a big boom u don't want.

Limitless! Mod is my avatar! Hybrid style. Costs about 160 with a sleeve for the copper version. Hardest hiting mod I've used yet. Lots of ppl win cloud comps with these for a reason!
