BD Mechanical Mod

I spent a mere $20 Australian for this mod and I must say it's money well spent. The mod arrived in a gray bubble post bag. Inside a plain plastic square tube housed the underwhelming black mod tube. It is not until you get to hold the mod that a tingle of excitement begins.
On top a floating pin on the top cap can be regulated by the use of a threaded round nut, which acts as a contact pin for your battery and the 510 connection to your attie. A rather unusual button assembly at the bottom which can also be regulated through a screw type assembly in order to fit your battery snuggly in the tube making solid contact with the atomiser and the battery.
It is fiddly and somewhat dangerous as both top and bottom screw assemblies have to be in the exact position. Either you will get no contact when the button is pressed or it will fire uncontrollably until the attie or button assembly is removed. By screwing one in and the other out or vice versa eventually you get to a safe and satisfying mech mod experience. Press the button and the atomiser comes to life, and I mean to life.
I have a dead rabbit on the BD, dual SS clapton coils @ 0.16 ohms. A Sony VTC 6 powers the unit without any drama. Current seems to flow nicely unimpeded since I have not felt the button or top assembly getting hot.
It is not a device for a person with no experience or knowledge of battery safety and mechanical style mods, not to mention omh's law.
Considering that an authentic Broadside will set you back easy over $130, a $20 investment seems almost laughable.
Perhaps not an engineering marvel but it does the job very well.

Cons:
It would have been nice to get a spare rubber band for the button assembly.
The top and bottom threads were quite tarnished, easily cleaned though.
A gap exposing the threads on the top cap after fitting attie and battery (see photo).

Apart from that I'm chuffed and surprised by the low price, simplicity and raw power of my new BD mech mod and have found it hard to put it down.
Highly recommended.

it is not bad for the price but mine got he SS oxyded in many part even you not see it on pic ,it is ok it still hit hard is just for the beauty,also you can fight at the start for setup the pin correclty from bottom to the switch..but after as you can see in my video in just signle coils if you are good to made the proper coil for reactivty and powerfull,look my video and imagining that is just single coils and a samsung 18650 just 20A,and i am just at 0.27 ohm perfect..but it look like i hit at 100 watt lol is just all from the coils and i hit at no more than 60 watt on the video ,amazing ? if you want to know how to made perfect reactive coil and powerfull for your meca just bip me..is cheapêr and easy

I already owned the brass Broadside but sadly after an festival someone stole it - couldn't find one in brass anywhere or even any other color and the auth. one costs about 130$ - ir's just a machined tube, so not worth it altough i love it. This lne from gearbest comes packaged pretty simply, no o-rings, no spare parts - nothing.
Nevertheless, mine had no scratches, no scuffs anywhere and so on. The engraving is beautiful, it's pretty deep and looks pretty nice. It hits pretty hard and is pretty compact - that's why i love it so much. It just looks sleek and simple but still packs a punch. Threads are nice and smooth, definitely nice for an 13$ clone!

The only cons that are existant are :

No spare parts, (Partially my fault) only available in stainless steel.

It quite good mechanical mod. It looks astonishing, works well, heats hard and so on.

SS version looks really nice with SS RDA's, I use Apex on it. A didn't mentioned, that RDA's landing place is 25 mm.

I changed O-ring with new O-ring 2 mm thick and 7 in diameter, cause standard O-ring sometimes fires without pressure.

I use here 0,08 Ohm triple Alien Clapton. It tastes grate with fully charged VTC 5A

It needs to be mentioned, that mod arrived in 12 days with Russian Post, incredible!
