I voted Hades but only because it's the only one I've used
Seriously, I have the Tobeco version of the Hades and have been pretty impressed with the quality of it. It's also got a spring loaded 510 connection, so adjustment was a non issue. |

Of the pics you posted, I'd go Hades, Snowwolf or Tesla. Mainly because I'm real picky about locking rings these days and those seem to have the best setups. On a 26650 the convenience of locking rings matters a bit more because you're turning more to engage due to the larger circumference of the mod.
ETA: The last thing I need is another mod but I keep salivating over the copper Hades that's coming out. I'm sure I'll end up with one once they're in stock and not pre-orders. |

No experience with any of them, so I'm just going on looks alone. In that case; I like the Tree of Life mod.
The Big Nasty has that DNA30 module you can slap on top of if it now, if that's an interest. (Pie pic doesn't appear to be working. Did I miss anything good?) |

The Tesla and Snow wolf have been in my cart several times. 
I don't dislike the Hades at all.. but would probably hold out for a copper one as well. |

The tree of life mod I have is super titties awesome! Even though it's a spring switch it's very smooth and short. The pie pic was just a pie.. seems I need to use another though.

Quoted: OK fellas. Help me decide which 26650 mod i should get to go with the 26650 kayfun. I'd say whatever you like the look AND MECHANICS of the best. The really big things about mechs are your positive pin and the switch. Cosmetics appeal, but you need function first. So compare how they're put together and make an informed decision. I haven't looked into them close enough to judge. An adjustable pin and a clever switch are key selling points. Some toppers are adjustable, but definitely not all of them. When it comes to 18650 mods, I know the Nemesis is a safe bet because of aftermarket upgrades. We're not there yet with the 26650, so I would buy accordingly. Or buy a couple cheap ones that are different, and have fun comparing. |

I would be looking at the switch as a deciding factor for me. That large a diameter needs a well designed switch. The rest of it is some threads and a battery tube, IMO.

After watching a few more videos, the Mutant seems to have the edge on the switch design... Except it doesn't have a lock.

About the Mutant, yeah, that's a pretty neat switch. Even recessed, I normally wouldn't consider a mech without a mechanical lock, but for a 26650, it's not like you're gonna throw it in a pocket anyways. It'll likely never leave the house so a full mechanical lock probably isn't that important. |

Well..
So far I have this. 
I really like the switch on the Mutant. Very unique. I'll do a review this weekend.
And I've not used a Stillare before, but if the normal one is as good as this big one.... WANT!! Also.. Does this kayfun make me look fat? 
Didn't try it yet... can't decide what I want to fill it with.
