As I recall I think they were like 70 or 80 bucks. The design always intrigued me, but I never bought one because i didn't know anything about them and 70 or 80 bucks is not dirt cheap. Glad to hear it's good.

Ya know what's funny? The one squonk setup I have that doesn't leak just about at all is that Desire Cut with the 50 cent bottles from Kidney Puncher :confused: Go figure.

Agreed. That cut will just not leak. Sadly, for me, just not my fav in hand. I have learned for me, #1 feel in hand, #2 looks, #3 functionality :facepalm: Sad but true.

If you are ever gonna let go of that mod, I wouldn't mind being the first in line ;) Just sayin'. As far as wraps go, I did this. I had a group of batteries that were all 20amp, 3000 mah, I only use them is single cel mods I am pulling equal to or less than 20 amps. So, I don't care which they are, all good in the builds. I kept my Samsung 20S seperate, for anything pushing the 20 amp pull.. re-wrapped some of them as well, just keep em in a seperate column. Idk if I'm doing it "right", but 5 years of vaping and only two battery issues, both massively my fault. Totally different story....

The mod is only $20 at Armageddon (Florida Vapor Supply), but I had to buy the black/clear door and the white/black door to swap them. Actually I just checked and they have a white/clear door.

I've only been vaping since Feb so still trying to figure out what my system is. I'm trying to cycle my batteries so I don't keep using the same ones; put the most recent charged on the bottom of the stack, keeping singles vs. marrieds, etc. And I thought I was going to save money. :wait:

You are doing just fine, asking the right people I.E. (not me :facepalm:) Batt's, just do what works for you, imo. Married go in duel holders

Where'd you get that stand??!

@marter, wrapping 5 batteries a little while ago took me 10-15 minutes. I don't normally let that many build up.

Y'all are killing me with the Armageddon stuff lol. I haven't squonked in many, many months but at the price, I'm still fighting not to buy anything. I'd also like to have the broadside from their site just because I've never had an authentic.

Drives me nuts that a mod I spent $200 on it now 40 though.

Anyway, Armageddon squonks were always my favorite and the only ones I held on to. Hardest hitting by a long shot but MAKE SURE you clean your contacts!

Looks good. I keep mine in the dual holders, married or single. I have a Dymo label thing so I've been dating them (don't go there) and indicating S for single, M for married. I try to put the recently charged on the bottom of the stack to rotate them. See pics.

It's not the time, it's the decisions. Which wraps, what pattern/color, upside down or not for BBs or one of the pairs, yada yada. And don't they make them a little tight in some mods? Anyway, just haven't gone there yet.

Using my new baby today. See how I like it. So far so good. Battery life lasts me long and I’m getting nice smooth flavor! I don’t know now if my solo or this is my current fav yet... I want to upgrade my solo by getting the X for Christmas. Hoping the price drops by then.

Trying something new for myself with some old stuff. 7.5 wraps at 2.5 mm ID 24 awg kanthal . Rocking at 40 watts at .77 ohms.

All in an Ares MTL RTA with Dirty DAAWG juice at 6mg

With the eleaf Ikonn 220.

Not too shabby of a vape.

My new Smok Mag P3 Kit in hand:

Hand_Check-20191116.JPG


This is a BIG mod. And fairly heavy. Works well for me because I have big hands. (I usually wear an XL glove.)
Click to expand...
Terrible rushed shot, but there's no 2 ways about it. This one's a winner for what it wants to be. Has the new chip too. Yes, it's big and heavy, but the build quality is VERY good and the hand feel is superb. Same awesome touch screen as the Morph. My only real complaint is the animation on the unlock slider. Not a big deal, but I wish the animation could be disabled.

Agreed on every point. (Though I can't speak as to the Morph, as I don't have one.)

I wondered about that, but I don't much tend to look at my mod unless I'm checking the wattage or battery level, or changing something, so it doesn't bother me.

Smok takes a lot of crap but I always found their mods to be reliable. Plus after they donated 500k to the VTA recently that gets some respect.

They only had 2 left. Been a while since I've been into a B&M. The kid goes, we've had those for a long time, you have to know how to build to use those they don't have a chip. I said yeah, ohms law, I'm good as I showed him my Ant mech. He had no idea what it was. He also told me nobody squonks anymore, lol. I said yeah judging by the 50 different pod system and starter kits you have I'd have to agree for your clientele. Then I asked for more of a discount to help him create more shelf space and you know since nobody uses these ;)
On the way out I showed him VU on my phone and suggested he check it out.
