At Walmart. Kitchen drying mats. I got one that’s rubber backed and a microfiber? type covering on the front. I think it was around five dollars.

Thanks for the reply. I will look into those and report back...

So here is my mini review of the reaper rda from boomstick engineering.

It’s 18mm around and 27mm tall.
89a6272fd550330230b8198ce3b9dbb4.png

It has an internal chamber and a top cap to help dissipate the heat.
It can be built in three different configurations.
Diagonal single coil with dual airflow.
e8e04a360e4def35af0c4a2a9536130a.jpg

Single coil with single airflow. I didn’t even keep that setup in long enough to get a picture. No way to get any decent airflow that I could figure out.
And dual coil dual airflow.

It is tiny. Here is a picture with it beside the hadaly.

Airflow was very smooth in any of the configurations. Flavor and vapor production are good also. It does get a little hot when you chain vape but it also dissipates the heat rather quickly. I swapped the included 510 drip tip out for another. It was a little too short for me. The 510 connector is short so it wouldn’t make contact with the beauty ring on when I put it on my copper vape. Might be a problem with some other mechanical squonkers that don’t have a spring loaded or manually adjustable 510.
Not a deal breaker for me because I won’t use the beauty ring anyway but worth mentioning. It does have a tendency for juice to condense between the inner chamber and top cap. Not enough to drip out but it’s there. It is difficult to build. Definitely not for the beginner. However, once you get it built it performs great. My favorite setup is the dual coil dual airflow. The flavor and vapor production are on par with my hadaly and haku phenom. So the big question, if I lost this today would I buy another one? Yes, yes I would. I am thoroughly enjoying this little beast.

Different approach, but the end result: deck size, airflow, and chamber - look a little "Nuppin-ish".
Which makes me want to try one.
:)
Someday - still on a kind of semi-freeze...
:sad:

I normally carry a mech squonker. Since I picked up the Squeeze 2, I've been carrying that daily and feel no need to change it up.

Am going to have to break down and get one soon - while I don't normally squonk regulated, I really like eLeaf mods: cheap and reliable

Had my OG Pico Squeeze autofire on me last night. This one has been in heavy use since about middle of April. Took a vape, let go of the button but kept firing. Removed battery, put battery back in, it was OK until I took another vape and then just kept firing.

Go buy a bottle of 91% Isopropyl Alcohol... remove the battery, RSA, bottle...put mod in a large bowl, drown it with the 91%... come back a while later and let dry ( takes like 2 mins max ) vape away ;)

Mine auto fired the other week, and I dropped it in my Ultrasonic filled with 91% Iso... works like new

I have been using the same Pico squeeze for maybe 10 months.
I am very careful to keep it dry of ejuice.

it has been dropped multiple times though as it is my out and about mod.

Remove the battery and clean your fire button using a toothpick.

Got a second Pico Squeeze 2 on the way and plan to get a third. Easiest squonker to fill I have ever had and it will run 21700 or 18650 batteries with the adaptor. I run both interchangeably in mine and you never have to worry about the battery wraps getting screwed up either. The 21700s last a long time and I run about 25ml per day through her. It's not perfect by a long shot but it's just what I have been looking for....

Oh, and the fire button placement. You will either love it or hate it. I love it!

Seems like it's everything the iJoy Capo should have been

Damn I haven't even tried my Squeeze2 yet. I have too many mods up and running right now but it looks like I will have to get it in the rotation soon. Is anyone anyone liking the rda it comes with? I think the design is pretty cool.

It's pretty good. I think Vaping V1ck had it right though; 40-60 watts range is probably the best for it. I vape around 30-35 and it was still better than most of my RDAs but not as good as the ones currently in rotation :)

Thanks for the info. I'll try it and see how it work. I like to squonk between 55 & 75 watts depending on build I'm working with.

I ran it for about 6 bottles in power mode on a Ni80 fused clapton at 55 watts. Switched yesterday to a paralleled SS316L round wire build running at 60 watts/420F... On my third bottle. I've had no issues with the RDA or the mod. Cleanest squonker I've ever owned... Topped the former favorite/cleanest mod - the Aspire Feedlink Revvo - pretty easily.

The silver squeeze 2 looks like something the movie stars of the 40's - 50's would be vaping on screen if they vaped back then. Sexy AF....

I need to remember not to have a common sense conversation with the wife...leads to 20 mins of her not wanting to admit fault LOL...


She is a Nurse Educator here in San Diego... and the topic was Infant CPR...and ALS also, but more about Infant CPR. Which the wife having double Masters in Nursing and me just a dumb ass; we had words haha.

I asked, since I haven't renewed my ALS in years, what was really different... and she told me in the methodical way they teach...which I truly get...

So I asked her about checking responsiveness of an Infant and gave her a scenario:

You're at a restaurant and you hear a mother scream, "OMG My baby has fallen and isn't responsive" I asked her... why would one check for responsiveness of an infant, if it clearly was stated the child has fallen (Infant) and isn't responsive?

She tells me, "That is how they teach it honey"

Me: I get that, I truly do...but wouldn't in a matter where seconds could be the difference of life and death, one could while walking there and understanding Infancy, that you wouldn't check for responsiveness, for if the INFANT was responsive, the INFANT would be crying its eyes out? Especially after a fall?

Wife: Well they just teach it that way, check for responsiveness

Me: Facepalm...Ok another scenario love..." Your elderly father, you see him get up, he falls down bangs his head, doesn't get up or makes a sound...you still going to waste precious seconds worrying about responsiveness?" LOL

Wife: "Honey... that is just the way American Heart teaches it"

Me: "uggh, I think you don't get it"

Wife: I'm the nurse with masters...

Me: "With zero common sense"

Wife: What?

Me: What? lol


And now I am vaping my 9mg Nic Salts cause of that 20 min debacle lol

Really hating this Furyan, it’s been a nonstop headache. And for something I was hoping to use as a beater mod, totally unreliable

No shit?

I really love mine - been a very welcome addition and in rotation daily since I got it

almost constant hot button & when it does fire, it’s very temperamental on if I’m pressing it in the right spot to get it to fire.

No matter how many times I’ve taken it apart and tried to fix it, it just will not give up the ghost.


And those springs are totally wack.


Edit: ended up with a LV426 coming to me

I'm with Lucy. I love mine. It hits like a champ every time. I have had zero problems with this mod. Maybe you should email lostvape and tell them about your issues. Then you can tell us how their customer service is.

I’ve sent them an email so we’ll see how it goes. Wonder if they’ll tell me to F off since I bought it from EVciggarettes (they’re not on their retailer page)
