trying to stay in and around 150-200$ my absolute cap is 225$
cant justify spending more than that.
@f1r3b1rd, what price point are you looking for? You can pick up used ones that have been well cared for, for under $250 and a couple of others under $200.

Mookooo is an excellent mod. While it is 3D printed, they feel really nice in the hand and are more durable than some of the fancier ones.
do you have link? I couldn't find anything

For the regulated bottom fed mods.
Hi Peng...hope you're doing fine...:)

Thanks for starting a thread for regulated bottom feeders.

I been looking high and low for a 200 watt BF mod....Catfish will have his ready in a couple weeks, but I would still like another source. Seems like every time I find one it's usually on the other side of the pond their sold the same day.

If someone designed a 200 watt bottom feeder for about 250-350 bucks they'd sell better than hotcakes.

Should you come across a DNA 200 squonker please post it...or better yet...PM me, so *I* can snatch it...:vino:

I been seriously thinking about making DNA 200 BF mods, there is one hell of a market for them and they are not readily available anywhere in the world (yet).

Nothing wrong with 3D printed mods. I have yet to break any of mine. In fact, they're the ones I take with me when I'm going places I'd rather not take one of my "nice" mods.

Where would you get a mod like that? Name? Link?

Mokooo Neon-R are DNA40. All of my regulated are DNA40.

Svapiamo makes a regulated 30w with the iStick board for cheap, if that is something that would suit you: http://svapiamo.com/64-box-mod-istick-30-w-bf
acrtually , 40w would work, but ideally I'm wanting either an sx350 or a dna200.
I like my 40's but I'm at a point where I'm sick of buying stuff -lol

I built it. I was on gdeal's beta team during the summer of 2014, although the pic is obviously a DNA40 so it's from the fall of 2014.

Unfortunately, gdeal was run off of ECF over a year ago (much like Roxy was more recently) and went back to doing more lucrative things for a living rather than designing mods and sharing the designs freely.

Personally. I've decided I'm just about as happy with mechanicals. But I still use that mod (and its little mechanical brother) regularly.

I haven't had good luck with the SX350 boards but admit that I have only tried two and from the same mod maker.

I love the hell out of my GDNA 40's, but I'd still like a 200 watt for all the crazy attys I have using clapton coils.

Even a printed 200 watt mod would suffice. I need to talk to a friend in the CAD business.

I live a simple life. I mix all my juice at 15mg which gives me a satisfying vape using a moderate amount of power. :)
I understand Ross......I don't have any qualms with my DNA 40's....I have other things in mind for the 200's.

I guess I don't see the tradeoff required in terms of form factor, because I just don't see a way to make a DNA200 based squonk mod that could be described as "svelte". Hopefully someone will prove me wrong at some point, but given that I've been happy vaping at well under 40 watts for 2+ years, I don't have any use for a boxy, fat mod.

During my research, I found one place for a DNA200 mod. However, it's a DIY kit, that comes in various colors.
http://www.shapeways.com/product/6ESX2FFXK/squonklab950-dna200-chassis?optionId=58603649

EDIT:
According to the measurements given for the LiPo pack, I found three packs with larger Capacity. If you decide to order from that vendor, make sure to select the proper warehouse (international = China, US-East, US-West)

that's a distinct possibility. depending on what the lost vape model retails at. I may go this route.

Neuner....I'm going to give it a shot at building the 200, the 40 watt shapeways was built very well.

Cool! Let us know, how it works out for you. I'll have to wait for a while, due to having spent a lot of money on vape gear recently. :(

They really should have designed it with 17mm for the bottle. The bento square bottles are ok for a mech, no great loss when they invariably split. But with electronics in there...

Dog, you know the dimensions of the soft Italian squonk bottles? I don't have anything here to measure it at the moment.

If there is a problem with real-estate holding an oval 8.5 ml Italian bottle I may go with this one for the extra space and stay with the smaller battery. Although, for the price of the shells I think I'll buy both to experiment with batteries and bottles.
The batteries listed above, are smaller than the LiPo's measurements shown on the page.
Just to make sure, besides the parts needed from elsewhere, you'll need a few parts for the box itself.
For the 950 mAh LiPo box, you'd need:
Chassis $43.00
Insert $28.00
Door $13.00
Buttons $4.00

Neuner, I'm going to buy a two of each boxes and different size batteries, make four mods to find out what the best configuration is.

Another shout out to a Spectra Special Powder. I LOVE this thing! Next try, a Special Powder (purple of course) EVO. A girl can dream right? ;)

Congrats, AngiBe! Love the colors. What do you get at differing angles, color-wise? I get yellow to orange, black to purple, green to black. Green and yellow are the main colors (present the most often).

Thanks girl! It's not "new" anymore. I've had it about a month. The colors I get are a deep purple::inlove::inlove: a copper, kind of a hot pink/rosey color, a vivid Blue/purple (that color in the upper right corner) and black. I absolutely LOVE the copper/dark purple combo and that's actually a lot of colors in my house. LOLOL

The only thing I'd change on it would be the door. I think if the door was a metallic copper or dark purple, it would be cool. Or even black. The door is a lighter purple.

They will make a new door for you (each is custom fit and not interchangeable), but you would be without it for a couple of months from what I have seen. I don't want to be without mine that long!

Ugh! Would LOVE a new door but that's a long time. Do they want the whole mod or could I just ship my current door and they can fit to size with that?

Just your current door, but you do need to arrange it with them beforehand so they have time to gather the wood that you want. Most people get more than one made so they only pay the DHL shipping to/from once.
