That's not true is it, not the full story I mean, obviously you had to work out what resistance you needed to get the power you want then puzzle what coil materiel and geometry would give you that still having enough wicking and not too long a heat up time.  I remember those days and it usually took quite a few goes and millilitres of liquid to get all that in balance.  You do need to do some of this tunning if you are coil building with
any mod, but with Mechs and fixed voltage where the resistance sets the power
it is far harder. 

Mechs may have a deceivingly simple method of working, but they are not at all simple to set up if you are pulling a lot of power, even with low power you have all the weekly maintenance to keep them consistent.  I remember having to completely strip and rebuild tube Mechs at least once a week or my 15 W would drop below 10, granted the box mods that use two copper strips today are a lot easier than those old tube mods.  We have come a long way since then and hand on hart TC is the least faff to live with, just clean the coils and rewick, how often depends on the liquid, but less often with TC because you don't get the higher than necessary temps you can with other techs.

I have no idea what you think I am doing differently building the atty that I wouldn't do if I was doing it for a Mech, a VV or VW mod, I cannot think of a single thing here.  This one I just took the coils out of the packet, fitted them, trimmed the tails, tightened everything down, quick pulse to check for hot spots, wick, add liquid, put to mouth and press the fire button while inhaling.  That is exactly the same, though I never gave a though to what resistance the coils were that's the mods job, I am experienced so automatically balance dual coils while fitting and always have sound and clean connections, a thing that TC and Mechs have in common is poor connections cause issues.  I have thought of one thing, I forgot it as it is so simple, I just need to make sure the right coil material is selected, but if I forget I can tell straight away when I vape.

So IMO if you are looking for a simple rebuildable it would have to be a VW as they are the least fussy, then TC is a close second with Mech and especially tube Mechs way back in the high faff area.

(I left out the replay feature on the DNA250C, now that is a new level of simple to get a really good vape)

It would really depend if you are happy with you're own coils then that's great. If you want something exotic, a little special and that'll last atleast 3 weeks give me a shout with some specs

I'd say more a professional hobby I don't consider it a job really more of a service
