What are better-flat top or button? For a mech mod.

That depends entirely on your mod. If it's telescoping then it probably won't make much difference. 18350's probably aren't ideal for a mech though, especially if you're mucking about with low resistance.

I've had problems with button top batteries in my mods. Flat top seems to be the only ones that work honestly. I have use these batteries in my sigelei zmax.

It depends. If your default 18650 comes with flat tops, I would stick with flat tops, but if it has the capability to use the button ones, then you can use them too. There is no difference in performance or power output, it's all the same. Just be careful though, because if your mod doesn't take/use bottom tops now, it is very possible that the end cap won't screw on because of the space. I have seen some guys try to change to button tops, and they can't close their mod with the tiny extra space the button tops need.

Either. Some VV devices won't accept flat top especially the Provari mini. But for a mech mod, doesn't matter. Hope this helps.

i have not found or heard info of any difference in power. choosing either would depend on the actual battery mod. the cap fitting/pressure of spring on some are tighter and some are loose when fitted with flat top or button.

It depends on the mod itself. I own several cheap Chinese mechs and use flat-tops in all of them. But I don't think it really matters, unless the maker specifies flat-top or button-top.

I would say both. Precision and handling does great, buttons easy to press and use, only thing that would make this not as great as a mouse is of you a ton of macro keys, the thumb 3 and the one above the scroll wheel are the only ones easy to press without stretching. Also currently has 4 DPI settings toggle but you only have option of switching on press, can't push to toggle then release to return for quick dpi increase for headshots

If you get crown buttons from ettoki you don't have to modify the holes. You can use a sanwa joystick, but most mayflash units require you to cut the sanwa pcb (it's ok you direct solder the switches). Also, you have to either Dremel the joystick screw holes or buy smaller screws. Ettoki is awesome, he sells everything, smaller joystick screws, wiring harnesses, joystick, and buttons (crown and sanwa). I ended up only using the mayflash chip and threw it into a tek innovations custom acrylic case since my mayflash stick started peeling and the case itself was a little small and my hand fell over the side if I went crazy on the stick.

Flat head screwdriver, that's it if you go on YouTube you might find a video on how to do it

The wire tends to be a little more touchy and sensitive. Which can also make them harder to set and easier to accident my trigger. I prefer the flat trigger models.

They do *appear* to be button tops, but there's a small raised edge of the outer shell that is uniform with the contact button... thus making the Panasonic CGR18650CHs a flat top. I have two of them and they work great in my Smoktech SID.

Vertical is best, make sure the upper line top does not loop back down to engine block. A loop will stop the gravity flow.

I use them in the innokin itaste svd and they work great. I don't know what a mech mod is.

No, 18650 won't fit but 16650 will. Flat tops should work if they are long enough. I have 16650 button tops for mine, works fine.

the flat trigger model seems to have a better response time , they are both excellent. i would recommend ether one for any fishing or small game trapping.

I do not know why you mean by " be flat ".I had no trouble assembling and achieving level and square.If you do not need the vise, you could just omit ot

I use the AW 18650, or Orbitron 18650, they have a very slight button top. I only use protected cells on my 18650 lights, and I use the Xtar VP1 intelligent chargers.

I am not an electrician. I spoke to the Lutron team. They told me that switches will differ slightly in looks and functionality from one subtype to another. The main difference here is the appearance- paddle switch Vs flat switch. The best way is to call Lutron Customer Service. They are very responsive and informative.

Requires 18650 button top batteries. If you use the flat top batteries they do not have the full protection required for this flashlight and they will not make electrical contact between each other unless you modify the battery (not recommended).

Use the tram 1602 as it has a quick release whip. Also put a small plastic drinking cup over the coil when putting on the cover. It will keep the coil top from tearing a hole in the cover. Sean Davis N8VIL

Well I Would have gone with a Yellow top and maybe a little bigger cap... Red tops are equal to a regular car battery and not deep cycle... Caps are just to stiffen your electrical system and feed the system with the power it needs...So you may also need to find out how many RMS your really pulling... my guess is a 2 farad cap would be plenty.... typically I have heard 1 farad per 1000watts RMS.

The top button is for the power on low or high and the bottom is for heat adjustment.
