Upgrading?

[Emperor Fabulous]

Hi There Peoples
I am reading as much as I can during short breaks from work, it would seem that the very small amount of gear I have is totally out of date by today's standards, so I am thinking I may have to male some upgrades?
I have an Atmomixani Nemesis that was gifted to me by a really kind chap I know, I adore it and would never get rid, but I am very keen to try a regulated Mod as I think.... it may be safer for a beginner such as myself? He also gave me a Pico Tank which I can just about build now. I love the flavour from the Pico, but would like something a bit more open, if that's the right term?

So really it is a case of me asking you what you favour or recommend.

Cheers All.

is this the pico you have?

and by more open do you mean looser airflow, so you can do big lung hits with it?

Are you happy to stick with building your own coils or would you prefer using "cartridge" / stock coils?

Any recommendations would depend on what you want...

As for the mod, it's (imo) really down to budget - quite honestly it comes down to what you think is prettiest for the price. You can get a decent reliable mod for 20 quid, or for 200+

The only other thing is size - an 18mm tank on a H.O.G. will look utterly lost, and a 38mm stuck on a 22 tube will get all lollipoppy

The Pico I have is similar, only mine has a Clear Tank and an engraved Celtic Knot on the Top Cap thingy. I'd like a bit of a looser pull on it, but it produces some great flavour as is.
As far as coils go, I'd like to try and stick with making my own, but am I missing out on something by doing that?

Budget would be £100 max for a Mod AND another Tank. Size wise it would be good to stick at 22mm as that would also suit the Tube Mod.

You're definitely missing out on paying a tenner+ for a pack of 4 or 5 coils

£100 is a relatively large budget imo, unless you're looking for something particularly specific/special.

For example, my first mod was an aegis legend (v1) which cost me around £60 three years ago - it's really not been out of daily use since then and I literally put it down to type this... Same unit now goes for about 30 new or less used.

The sticking point may be finding a 22mm DTL (I'm assuming you want a tank?). Of course, what constitutes "airy" varies by person.

It might be a case of getting a new setup of mod and tank to use together...
