Walt Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Sounds like you and I will be taking the leap at about the same time. I've got a wraith coming. Can't tell you anything about it except @gadget recommended it and I trust his judgement. I never thought I would "squonk". (what a word. Feel weird even saying it). gadget and michellesully72 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 My... how squonking has evolved. Once upon a time we used squonkers for direct drip atomizers. Look how far they've come... Walt, michellesully72 and gadget 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walt Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 (edited) I have to admit there is another I have one eye on. The Lost Vape Therion 75C BF is out. I'm not going to jump into that until after I find out if I really take to squonking but Lost Vape makes wonderful devices.

gadget Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 It is a silly word but I must say, I got mine used about a week ago and I haven't been able to put it down.The build deck appears to be set up for dual coils but I like single for flavor so that's how I built it.The air flow is set up so it will work the same with either single or dual.I'm running a 5/4 wrap SS Juggernaut coil at 0.3 ohms.TC mode 40watts at 370° and the flavor is off the chart!When the flavor starts getting weak, I squeeze the bottle and hold it for approximately 10 seconds to saturate the coil (before and after photos below). When you release the bottle all the excess juice gets sucked right back down into the bottle. This thing is virtually leak proof. Walt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FXRich Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I got a 160w Kanger Dripbox shortly after they came out, the RDA that comes with it leaves much to be desired, but the mod itself is a great dual 18650 mod. It came with a extra bottle too. gadget and michellesully72 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just diminished fog to trigger the time to squeeze in more juice. Time will tell. gadget 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even used it a couple of times driving to town. Dripping and driving isn't recommended, but Squonking and driving is OK. gadget 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it's just hoping at this point until I have some time to see how I bond with the practice, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FXRich Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 The only problem I see with the wraith is it only handles N200 or titanium in TC, I prefer SS for TC. The Kanger dripbox 160 is about the same size and shape as the RX200. michellesully72 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On one hand, compared to many mods out there it is expensive. On the other hand, it is about the same price as one night in a motel. The latest Iphone is a GRAND! A friggin Grand for a phone? Are these devices really expensive? Food for thought. gadget 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going back in that direction next time around if they're still available. I get plenty of face time every day with computers and I just don't use the cell much at all. I also keep an ipad for controlling my monitors during performances and there is a lot of redundancy there as well. gadget 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My phone costs me $17 and change every month for 300 minutes, I rarely use over 100 minutes a month, and they carry over a certain amount. Just have it for emergencies and stuff like that, I even ignore texts. Walt and gadget 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eris667 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) Looks like you already ordered - I have been squonking on RDAs for years - love it For new squonkers I always recommend the Kanger DripBox ~$25https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10014058/4388802-authentic-kangertech-dripbox-e-cigarette-starter The included RDA is garbage - but it can be rebuilt to taste (I prefer ~.4 ohm Dual Coil Kanthal builds) My favorite Squonk RDA is the Derringerhttps://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10012406/4567302-derringer-v3-styled-rda-rebuildable-dripping with a Squonk Pin - BF RDA Replacement Contacts (about middle of the page) http://fatdaddyvapes.com/shop.html I use the M3 more than the M2.5 (but I typically keep both in stock for trying new RDAs with Velocity style decks) My second and third favorite Squonk RDAs arehttps://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10033130/7638600-authentic-vandy-vape-pulse-rda-rebuildablehttps://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10021547/4813300-hastur-v2-styled-rda-rebuildable-dripping-atomizer I used FastTech for reference, but typically I buy from US resellers if possible I have tried a bunch of Squonk Mods from ~$10 mechanicals to ~$100 regulated, the simple Kanger DripBox v1 has been the best one for pocket size, battery life, reliability, and toughness As for the practice / usage - just remember 1-2 puffs, squonk (rinse and repeat) Good luck on your vaping journey!

Walt Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I don't know what there is about squonking. In all seriousness, I have a few RTA's that will deliver equal flavor to RDA's but there is something about a squonk mod and atty that just beckons me. Just today, I'm coming home from a short day at the shop. Coming out of a traffic circle, entering the on ramp and working through the gears. I give it a squeeze for a fresh squonk and take a hit. Santana coming out of the speakers. Life is good. Everything fits somehow. gadget 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
