The video review:

 

Mechanical mods are mods that do not feature any electronics. The internal circulation of the current is done by putting the positive of the battery in contact with the negative thanks to a switch. Often considered as works of art, whether industrial or artisanal, they represent a great tradition devolved to geeks, lovers of beautiful objects but also and above all to those who master all the electrical aspects of the vape. In the wrong, uninitiated hands, these items can be dangerous.
