markm why do you say that? @what wattage would that matter in your opinion? I value a good volume of vapour but a clean taste above all... some throat hit is also required.

The Ithaka/gg would be my choice if you want to push far past 20w. its designed to allow for a high voltage twin coil setup and works well in that format

So many subjective factors mean it is very hard to judge for another person. I have Spheroid, Kayfun, Ithaka, and 'Just GG'. If you're going to be mostly using a Spheroid or Kayfun I would go for Provari or Semovar (n.b. Semovar is rather long in 18650 mode!).
I'm definitely not the most experienced, but I don't really see the benefit of using a mechanical mod with either the Spheroid or the Kayfun (apart from aesthetics perhaps). For me both atties perform best at moderate resistances/power, so a regulated VV/VW mod seems appropriate to me. The Ithaka is incredibly versatile in my view - with adjustable airflow and juiceflow, and the ability to use single or double coils. For me it is a very different type of vape to, say, the Spheroid or the Kayfun.- but I think you can tailor the vape a lot with this atty to suit your requirements. The 'Just GG' is a very well-made and versatile mechanical mod with a modular construction. The Ithaka integrates perfectly with any of the GG devices. I have no experience with the Paps.
I suspect that the Nemesis will outperform both the Paps and the GG in the mechanical mod stakes - I have been told that the voltage drop for the GG is 0.2 volt, which I believe is pretty good. I tend to use the 'Just GG' with a Kick, and I can confirm that it works brilliantly in that mode for my taste.

So, if the Voltage drop in the GG is 0.2 how can that be good? xD I set the GG mech mod aside already, I'm not going for the Ithaka anyway which was the big plus for the GG! I like matching things I'll probably stick with the Kayfun's, before diving into the depths of such high wattage's. I doubt that I would appreciate my juices at such high wattages anyway, that's probably better for less intense flavours...

I doubt that I would appreciate my juices at such high wattages anyway, that's probably better for less intense flavours... Yes it can be good! As I understand it lots of mods have a much larger voltage drop than this. If I recall correctly I saw a review of the Nemesis that showed the voltage drop was around 0.1 volt drop (which is obviously better). The Paps will have a voltage drop too.... though I don't know what it is. There is no such thing as a perfect mod that has no voltage drop, and if you use a Kick then it is of minor significance anyway.

wow. had no idea there could be a bigger Voltage drop than that... I mean, at .2V drop in a 4.2V batt (fully charged) is a 5% drop on performance. :s
