Why does a mechanical mod fire slowly? When selecting a mechanical mod, we can find that there are many materials for the mod, including silver, copper, aluminum, titanium, and stainless steel. When purchasing, we often hear that silver and copper mods have faster firing speeds and better explosive effects. I also researched online, and under the same resistivity, the order of conductivity is silver, copper, aluminum, and stainless steel, with aluminum and stainless steel differing by 3.7 times. So, since silver mods are better than aluminum mods, why do people still choose copper mods? First, the higher the purity of silver, the softer the mod becomes, making maintenance troublesome later on. If the mod accidentally falls, it could easily be damaged. Therefore, we often see pure silver electrodes, which are designed to enhance the explosive firing, and they are more economical than a whole silver mod.

So, the copper mod, which is second only to silver in explosiveness, has become a popular choice among many users because many people say that copper mods feel substantial and satisfying in hand, and indeed the firing speed can meet everyone's needs. Although aluminum mods are lighter than stainless steel, they have a faster firing speed than stainless steel, and aluminum mods come in various colors, making copper and aluminum popular choices among buyers.
In my long-term use, I have developed preferences for different materials, so I have collected copper, aluminum, and stainless steel mods from the same brand. In actual use, I have carefully compared the explosive performance of the three different materials. In the same brand, the slight difference in conductivity is actually hard to feel in practical use.
Why does a mechanical mod fire slowly? When the battery is placed inside the mod, the battery and mod create a skin effect. Manufacturers design different firing button and tube wall structures to address the differences in material that lead to varying firing speeds. The larger the contact area between the firing button and the battery, the faster the firing speed. Some brands also add conductive coatings inside the tube wall to speed up firing. Therefore, the firing speed of different materials still depends on the overall design, and when purchasing, it is essential to try them out yourself.
