Custom mods : a unique piece of vape design
BY OPEN _ AIRFLOW
The vaping community has changed rapidly over the last few years – from a few vapers seeking an alternative to smoking tobacco , to a community that has risen exponentially in numbers all over the globe . People from many different backgrounds , ages , religions and ethnicities form the worldwide community of vapers . Vaping has become so much more than just not smoking tobacco . It has expanded to a lifestyle that the members of the vaping community embrace with every step they take on an everyday basis . Reading vape magazines , shooting pictures or browsing for new mods , tanks and liquids for hours is as natural to a vaper as it is to a banker to read the Wall Street Journal .

One of the major trends that I observed is to individualise the personal vape experience by designing a custom mod . So let us take a closer look .
Designing a custom mod is not as hard as you may think . Mod builders are easy to find on the web and they ´ ll be happy to build your personal mod just as you want it to be . Some of the websites offer user friendly interfaces where you can choose the different parts of your mod step by step .
Safety first
Before you start thinking about the design , you need to be sure whether you want to build a mechanical or a regulated mod . There are many different kinds of mods , and you need to know which one you want to use . In short we differentiate between regulated and mechanical mods . A mechanical mod is basically a box or a law and the interdependencies between wattage , voltage , current and resistance . A mechanical mod does not have any safety parts that will warn you if your atomiser has a short or you ´ re about to use a bad battery . Regulated mods instead are equipped with a chipset that shuts down the device if anything is wrong with the mod you are about to use . tube containing a battery as the mod ´ s power source . Before using a mechanical mod make sure you understand Ohm ´ s
