Jeez, I don't blame people if they start taking the bait honestly. It's just going to turn the forum into a big ass commercial

That auto squonk looks very interesting. Talk about an easy driving mod :)

So stripped down my Marvic BF 75c , swapped out 510 for a 22mm bf, can now use with bf normal bottles
Or attach a mod maker metal feed tube since it has a threaded 510 pin ,

Its solid build 75c fits all 21700 cell sizes ,

Redeemer Squonk Box By Purge Mods. Looking into this mod. Yay or nay? Anyone have any experience with them?

I don't :(

Have become a squonk dinosaur for not buying all this time, lol

Can't believe no one here is saying anything about it - I know many were lusting after these awhile back....

I slowed down a lot, partly cuz i was "between jobs" but also partly cuz a lot of the latest stuff doesn't work for me.
See, these trends keep popping up, and I might hop on the bandwagon, but then I hop off when I get somewhere I like, lol.

For example -

Trend to go from wrapping wire to buying Alien Clapton Tank Tread coils?
Nope.

Trend to go from 1.5 ohms to 0.015 ohms?
I got out about halfway. Vape from 0.4 to 0.5 mostly.

Trend to need higher and higher watts?
I stuck with mechs. I just prefer the vape...

Trend to drop nic down to 3 mg?
I dropped from 24mg to about 6.

Trend to go from 18650 to 20700 to 21700?
I have about 85% 18650s and a couple 20700s

Trend to go back down to 18350s
I'm getting one teensy mod.

Trend to get pods?
Tried one, sold it later that day.

Trend to go to salts, and back up in nic?
Nah. Skipping this one.

Trend to go back to higher ohms?
Nah. Skipping this one.

Trend towards tighter draw, less airflow?
Nah - not for me, since I didn't do the last couple, this one won't work for me either.


It's OK - I'll wait. Sooner or later there will be a real innovation I like. Or a trend to go "back" to nifty or crafty 18650 mech mods, and I'll want some...

I have not been overly impressed or wanting to try the various new "auto" squonks

Well the Pindad doesn't squonk for shit, I don't even think they though out the option when they included it. The bottle sucks the juice back out of the little tank because of the fill hole placement...

It's an excellent mini flavor RDTA though.

Think there is a reason why none of the RTA/RDTAs that also squonk have really caught on

I absolutely hated the only one I tried, but it was more because of the airflow

Didn't use it enough really see if it was worth the squonk effort, lol

So...does anyone here, or a friend of someone here love to tinker and kind of "modify" mods so much that they'd like to tackle a project for me? I began, but got stumped. I have two of the same kind of mod, and they really need a 510 and contacts replacement - but the layout is weird, it's going to take a unique fitting and I'm just not equipped, or particularly good with the mechanical stuff. Especially small mechanical stuff, lol.

To get an idea - here's the inside of one. It's a Galaktica: delrin box, copper strip contact screwed to the wall, and lifted at the neg end by a spring. That's not a great long-term setup, as the spring shifts around, etc. I'm hoping someone could concoct some way for new contacts to be shaped, maybe with an insert below, that would be more stable.

Here's the other one. On this one, I managed to replace the 510, even drilling (badly) so now it's pretty flush (another key improvement). But I just got stumped trying to figure a good way to handle the contacts.

So - any modding/hobbyists lookin' for a little challenge?

I’d do away with the spring. And just have a solid piece of copper on the bottom.

A bench vise, copper block, metal finishing files a scribe and a set of drill bits really all you need.

Then have them plated after if you’re wanting.

The only one that works very well is the Medusa Reborn by Geek Vape, the squonk pin comes out on the deck instead of trying to fill the well.
Similar style vape to the Limitless+ or Combo RDTA though. ;)

It's perfectly ok. I've put that one on the back burner for now. I've found some things on the net, but would prefer experiences and opinions of VU members.

Hi everyone. I've never Squonker'd before. I got a few RDAs but don't use them often. I'm sure yall remember the 8Vape Feedlink sale on Black Friday. Well I got one. I won a Drop solo in the 3Avape thanksgiving contest. They've been parked until tonight. I told @Shredtravolta my situation so he sent me a fralien to throw in there (Super nice guy!) If you know me I dont GAF about matchy most of the time :D. My first squonk!

0121191747-1.jpg

The fralien coil looked perfect but I strummed it pretty hard getting hot spot out. So if ya see blemishes, that's my fault.

It's .15Ω and that first hit off a brand new VTC5A was a doozie! I got some @VAPEROXX Cornbread Pudding in the tube. Flavor is off the charts. Thought I'd share my buttom feeder adverture.:D

I'll keep using it to see how we get along. But this has been a success. I might want to try some more RDAs after this.

Do any of you guys use the plastic cover on the Drop Solo? I thought the draw felt nicer with the metal. But heard the smaller chamber intensifies flavor. I couldn't tell.

Thanks. He's my little buddy, Vader.
He gets to hang out on my desk, as long as I'm not mixing or building, lol.

Here he is, in all his fuzziness...
He's kind of got a natural "grumpy face" but actually, he's torn between wanting to be near people (I know - weird for a kitty, but he follows me around, and picks someone else when I'm travelling), and being scared of like everything (bags, tin foil, strangers, mowers and blowers anywhere nearby, actually any loud noise)...

(PS - pretty sure he's on Instagram, but he won't tell me his handle) :huh:

Love your kitteh!

Very partial to Tuxedo cats :)
Looks like he has good taste. The kitty I mean,

You cannot change it only hide it once done,
Unless you can be bothered contacting admin and dribbling on
Way too much vape related obsessing drooling over the cool kids mods to be doing that lol,
