Squonkers are Bonkers

I tried the Merlin RDTA to squonk, the idea of extra juice capacity for squonking was appealing when I still had to work outside the home, but wicking that bitch and what have you, wasn't worth the effort

Nice vape, just not worth the hassle

I still say that the Merlin RDTA is the most gorgeous piece of vape hardware I've ever seen. That rose gold, damn. Be still my heart.

Props to the Pico Squeeze.
Was leaking. Had backup bottles - replaced it. All good.
(New bottle makes aggressive suck-back sound. More like "SQUEENCH" than "squonk")

But anyway, still working just fine...so I wondered, "when did I get this?".
Looks like Sept. 2016.

All hail the squeeze. I love those mods.

Of course the company saw the success of the mod

But didn't realise that it was the simplicity that was the key, and added features to improve it. Discontinued v1

Yep typical management thing improving a product that needs no improvement.

Last time I looked replacement bottles were hard to come by.

Huckleberried · Apr 18, 2020

Has anyone tried a Luxotic BF silicone bottle in one? I heard they'll fit, just don't know.

They fit straight in

But best with a 510 refill bottle, because pushing the silicone from base can squirt a bit

The Cromwell · Apr 18, 2020

Just glad I got about 20 years worth of Squeezes and bottles.

Thank you very much!

I saw squeeze bottles at Amazon, if anyone feels like taking a chance with a "just launched" vendor. You'll pay as much for shipping, but still seems a decent price.

Cool deal. If anything does go sideways, Amazon will back it up, at least. I've had good luck with new vendors, so far. Hope it goes well.

Tried ordering some from FT in Dec I think. It was showed ok to order, but they could not get them and refunded me after about a month.
Never thought of checking amazon.

I wouldn't expect to find them there, but googled them to see anyone that might carry. Surprised me, too.

I dunno man. I think they're lying. About my Vape-mail. It's coming UPS.
Email gave a 4 hour window for ETA, and it's 50 minutes past the end of the window.
And this fucker is just SITTING THERE on this map...
Do I have to go over there? I like the map, it's cute, but he's just sitting there. Is this bullshit? UPS trucks don't stay in one place for 20 minutes. Wait...ah fuck. He moved. But it's not closer, just a different spot. Oh well. It's just another of an RDA I already like, lol.

lol, one day, one day, you will find an RDA you can settle on

you seem to buy a lot

Train · Apr 22, 2020

It's a hobby.

I like a little variety.
I mean, I don't NEED any more...but, you know...something will catch my eye, like next week.

I have a nuppin coming. I had one of the first batch. But, it was early in my building career, and they predated the fancy coil winders of today. So between my inexperience at the time, and relying on little blue screwdriver builds, I found it really difficult.

The Cromwell · Apr 23, 2020

I have a V1 nuppin that Todd sent me. Came smelling of custard and spaniel hairs on it

Truth
My most treasured piece of vape stuff.

Train · Apr 23, 2020

Oh, it's not you - they are a pain in the ass to build!!

JuicyLucy · Apr 23, 2020

Been thinking about digging out a Nuppin, haven't used one in over a year - they are still very nice to vape

DogMan · Apr 23, 2020

Given the state of international post, it might be June before I receive it yet.

Congrats man! I have something coming as well and couldn't be happier

JuicyLucy · Apr 24, 2020

Great old school shit

Papachaz · Apr 24, 2020

Not fancy but something new. I haven’t bought anything new in quite a while. The dyadic and a profile 1.5. Both gunmetal. Nice and matchy matchy.

Carpe Nidor

Train · Apr 24, 2020

Mini-review, lol.
Is it the best squonk rda? Nah.
But it's not bad. Adjusts from "very" restricted DL to pretty damned "open" DL.
I don't like building "legs down" - but it wasn't too hard to get it right.
Flavor is "ok" - not exceptional - I'm just spoiled, really.
But again - lookit all the fun colors! Great for mixy-matchy, so I'm glad I got it.

yes

none of this channeled/directed AFC bullshit

if i were into that shit, i'd use tanks

just drill fucking holes in 1mm of external shell, have posts in the middle IMO. It's not fucking difficult, yet almost no one does it anymore. They all have the bullshit little tube style AFC directing air as close to the coil as possible

cunts should be shot

Bastards. Glad they took care of you. I'm really sorry to hear that and I feel badly about it, myself. Amazon sent me a notice similar to yours on an order. I hope they pull the seller ASAP..

~Don~ · Apr 25, 2020

Its a secret secret place ...

In all honesty I just found it, emailed them if they truly have the stock in... $12 picos, Im down for a few lol

~Don~ · Apr 25, 2020

well I went through the check out process... damn canucks don't ship to the US I guess... still going to wait for an email ... but yeah.

Why list the US and each individual state in the pull down, if you dont ship here lol

Its like going to an Iced Cream joint, they have a menu with 50 flavors, you look down in the freezers and its all Vanilla

Huckleberried · Apr 25, 2020

Well that just sucks. I found the silicone ones that Dogman said fit them. Got those at Heaven Gifts. They're for the Luxotic BF.

~Don~ · Apr 25, 2020

~Don~ · Apr 25, 2020

Ooh it shows shipping to US now lol

$15...

The Cromwell · Apr 25, 2020

Yep good price but shipping is crap as usual to and from Canada.

I was going to order a couple too.
and they are showing sold out on the bottles.

well $11 USD for 3 picos shipped isnt that bad considering... not China $2 EMS, but still respectable considering $12 CAD ($8.51USD) per pico kit

You made out like a bandit, there.

I didnt order it... I have 3 picos and 8 ish bottles... its a really good deal though... 10 bottles 3 pico kits for $44... thats basically $14.67 each and it comes with 3 bottles and a throwaway RDA lol

oops

I got 2 white squeezes for a bit over $34 USD incl shipping, pretty darned good. Thanks.

~Don~ · Apr 25, 2020

I might wait til Monday to pay, I did the whole check out etc... just never went to PP to pay them.

Wait for Monday to see if the exchange rate works more in my favor LOL... CAD hopefully worth .70 vs .71 and save a buck something more LOL
