Squonkers are Bonkers

My Ultem arcs but I figured that was typical of silver contacts but I'm new to this whole thing. I just clean with q tip and rubbing alcohol. But didn't know Ultem version had pure silver vs plated. I guess with pure the arcing is conductive I read earlier? Still I clean it regardless.

I don't want to put no ox id somewhere that close to a squonk bottle to help prevent arcing lol. Maybe I'm being paranoid but that sounds like cancer to me if I over did it like my clumsy ass usually does and some got its way into my vape.

I read that same thing too. I'm still learning when it comes to the different metals.

Oi bonkers, remember that svb mod I got with the blues brothers multi powder coat paint job? Well here's something for the Pico lovers:

Is this a different Pico?

Pico I'm thinking of costs $16, fancy sleeve for 30 euros = $37.18 PLUS postage at today's exchange rate......

So I won this in a FB waffle! US Modz Humble Bee. Only the second one ever made and a 1 of 1!
Single 21700 mech
Engraved delrin body
Full silver contacts
Ultem and “moon drop” resin doors
Damascus button
And a crap ton of extras!

I won’t see it until after NVE but how can I complain?!

I only watch his reviews when I really need a good laugh.I find it amusing that for somebody who owns a vape-shop he knows/understands very little about the subject of vaping.
I've bout every device he's ever said was crap and loved them all.Except the Capo Squonker that is.That 1 I decided to skip but not because of his review.If I recall it was something (Vaping With Vic) said.

Resupply chopper just came in under heavy fire... new batteries for the PRC77.

Ok, actually it was a peaceful Sunday package delivery from usps... 8 vtc5a for the mechs/mosfets and 4 hg brownies for the regulated side of life. Guess I'm good to go for 2 more years.

Sidenote: just received an email from vapehappy with a $10 discount code for preorder pulse 80w. Thing is, their regular price is $90 for resin w refill bottle, $86 without bottle. So even with coupon, $80 or $76. 3Fvape and FT offering same preorder... $53 w refill bottle. :huh: I admit that is very tempting.

Anyone keeping up to speed on 20700 battery news? That IJoy 5-leg that Mooch tested previously still a decent choice?
I'm going to want you to give serious feedback on that Pulse 80W as soon as you can.

See now, I'm damn near tempted to get the blues bros kinda color shell towards the top of the picture, but I don't have a FB account!
Good Lord knows I spent more than that on worthless crap before.

These are"after" pictures btw...
There is a reason I don't buy anything at the (Coalinga Junction) stop when riding (Greyhound)
You don't see the bulls in the field until after the bus pulls out.
Suddenly most people seem no longer hungry after that.

Ha no, I actually get a long with Raphael quite well. He's not so bad, just struggles pretty terribly with English and it creates some significant problems.
It's also important to realize that we don't speak English, we speak / write in American.
Totally different tone.
Whenever I'm dealing with foreigners I craft my messages a little differently.

Didn't help me in this case though!
No!
We "American's" speak Broken-English.

Anybody know where is a good place to buy 2x700 batteries? All the Chinese shops won't ship to North America, the few I have found in Canada want $25 a battery. Curious where everyone is getting 2x700's for a decent price. My two Sanyo 20700B's are ok batts, don't do too well when you start asking them to pump out 15A consistently.

Orbtronics is good also, Shipping to Canada isn't to bad :) They also have a poor selection of 2X700's, Sanyo "B's" & Samsung 48g, both low amps :(
I cant complain about the Ijoy's, I run both 20 & 21700's 30 & 24 amps, More suted to my vaping style
Orbtronic's are re-wraps if I recall.

I might - hey, it's a decent little mod, and for like $50-$60, you have a decent little mod with a cool, hand-done one-of-a-kind pebbly powdercoat finish. Then again, that's half the price of just getting an SVB mod...so I might do that instead.

Oh I enjoy it all right - kinda wish someone would buy it for the WTF factor :teehee:

IF I had an FB account, I'd get the Pico powder coated shell, the SVB is a "poke yer finner in the hole" kinda mod....

Thanks for pointing this out! I dont check 3f like I used to so I woulda missed this. $49 for the carbon one is impossible to pass up, I mean that's less then the mech was for pre order if I remember correctly? Plus I'll get it right after my vapersary so that's a good enough excuse

Yeah I talked to Ariel directly but all he offered was to send it in to have them "fix" the contact. I knew from our talk that meant clean, polish and alcohol just like they told you to do. I asked if he could send me better contacts and he said only the ultem has full silver.
I honestly think they just went to cheap on the contacts. Even on the v2's after they knew about the problem. Kinda put me off from Armageddon and that sucks because I used to like them a lot.

Sorry to hear that man! My Ultem arcs but I mean no matter what it hits like a freight train. Maybe because of my contacts being full silver, but Ariel is really great and sorry you had a bad experience :(

Still, compared to the 3D printed boxes I'd rather have a solid piece of delrin or whatever those are made of but to each is own. But I'll agree cleaning can be a PITA for it and removing the little piece to get the contacts out is a major hastle. Otherwise I can look past those flaws.

Probably being bias because this is only the 2nd and currently only squonk I own, but for the price of the Ultem I don't plan on buying anymore mods for quite some time lol.

See the websites I just looked at for Ultem ones even said silver plated. Hmm I'll have to confirm.

Me 2 probably grab 2 more and some more MM bottles.

MM bottles?
Modmaker from UK or states, that can't be right. You're talking Pico from FT... ok, wtf.

edit: ok, you never actually said fastech. The mystery grows...

I had an extra MM bottle from my Neo Mara that fit solidly in the pico. Allows me to actually see how much liquid in the bottle.

I have an Armageddon V3. What do you mean by arcing, and does it have anything to do with the button clicking?

My first was an s rabbit clone and I like squonking so much that I pretty much stopped using my other non squonking stuff. Now have an Armageddon V3, an Aleader Funky, and a modified RX200S en route. And now trying to talk myself out of a pwm squonker LOL
