Mech mod question

[RicModMaker]

Ive got a galileo mech mod and am wondering why it doesn't vape as well as my vamo. I don't run the vamo at anything above 3.7v so I'm at a loss as to why my mech doesn't seem to be as powerful? Is there something I should know and can do about it? Thanks for your help

all down to the contacts and battery voltage with mechs....if the contacts are dirty it wont hit as hard or if they are of inferior conductivity to others....so make sure contacts are clean first....then have a fully charged battery which should then be around the 4.2 level...what atty are you using?

I've have a clean up. I'm using an Aga T2

do you know what ohm coil your running in the aga

Mech is not regulated, the vamo should stay at 3.7 even under load but a mech will have an amount of drop off when you fire it (under load)

Get your coil down below 2 ohm and it'll be better

Because it's brand new, I didn't see any dirt on the contacts but I did clean the thread and contact on the Aga. It seems a bit better. I'm running a 1.6ohm coil.

ensure batteries are fully charged too. its amazing how quick they can drop off and you lose flavour and throat hit but after a few days of using a mech you'll soon know when it starts to run low as you can almost feel the change in the vape.
what batteries do you have in the mech?

that's it mate if you want it harder go even lower on ohms

I'm not using anything special. 18350s. Torchy 850mAh and 900mAh ICR that came with my Vamo kit.

I think I will. I'm just surprised it's a little bit weaker than the Vamo. My Aga vapes probably 20% better on that. I don't understand how this could be.
