Confused of conductivity with plating, and actual metal.

[AlphaBetaOmega]

Would an actual copper contact be better than a silver-plated brass contact or any other variation?
I have read that a whole solid contact would be better than any plated contacts.

Also does tubing actually help conduct to vaping experience?
Example, a brass mod would be better performance than a SS mod?

In search of the best consistence vaping. Looking far and wide for the lowest voltage drop mechanical mod (clone).

Vape on!

Silver is a super conductor so doubt silver plated brass would be a downgrade over solid copper/brass contacts. There is a voltage drop in any device and is more what type of coil you put on your mod that will decide what kind of vape you get.

What mods are you looking at our of curiosity? I have a silver plated nemesis that works great, but all my mods work great since I build coils to work great on them.

My 2 of my friends already have the Nemesis, so I am hoping to get a different kind of mod. The Chi-You is popular as well, but my friend just got his today.
I am looking for an AMAZING performance mod, I have heard the King clone works well, and the Maraxus. But the Maraxus is an eye sore to me. Any suggestions? Have you heard anything of the turtleship ?

Both with same battery & RDA.

SS with gold plated contacts

Brass with sold silver contacts

Very helpful and appreciated!

Silver is a good conductor and gold, brass and stainless steel are fair conductors. But silver corrodes and although its oxide conducts electricity it is nowhere near as good as silver metal. Gold does not corrode, and when the others do, the oxides do not conduct.

So if you keep silver clean it will drop the least voltage, if you don't you're probably better off with gold plated brass or SS.

Any mods you recommend that's great performance?
