Squonkers are Bonkers

No more than six (maybe seven) months. I put a freshly charged battery in it, fire it four, sometimes five times, it shows (and acts as if) there is one power line, the battery is discharged. I'd call that wonky! I'm much happier with the Therions and even the DB2s
So your saying the Wraith is under powered?

Toss me links for both the Therion & DB2

When I told my wife I wanted to spend $100+ on a mod/device her response was "Wait just the device?"

Yeah... I remember 4 years ago when I started vaping and the Provari was high end at about $120. I thought that was utterly ridiculous as I vaped on my Kanger T3 and Ego battery.

About three weeks ago I just dropped $230ish on my Mums Plug squonk box... worth every damn penny (to me).

Actually, the Therion at FT with a MAP code comes out at $107 and that's not bad for a good mod. I paid five times that for a dual mod. The way the Chinese are going, by Christmas there's going to be a ton of squonk mods to choose from.

A-leader has a nice looking resin mech squonk for $35 on 3F that just got released. I think I read it's got copper contacts. So long as the 510 is adjustable that would be a winner to me.

Wait... You told your wife?!?!

Everything I own (clocking in around 160 mods and 270 atomizers) The Wife thinks I won or traded for.

Well, not really... but my biggest fear is that when I die, she'll sell my mods for what I said I paid for them :)

So how do I get ahold of your wife to buy some gear?

Not too bad, I kept "winning giveaways " but wife got wise to that! I guess 12 mods and tanks in a row was a bit much!

That's hilarious! I just told my fiancée the very same thing. I did legitimately win a "waffle" to get her a very nice squonker recently.

Dropped $335 on my new svf, not including the extra doors. Is derlin though and fully engraved, so totally worth it imo.

Waiting for cross pond delivery. I showed it a couple days ago but I guess I can show it again! Lol
The "extra" doors are 14 & 18...

I'm going to stick to regulated mods.

I totally get that. I've vaped regulated mods since I started and just recently started loving on these mech squonkers. There a something about that raw power being thrown at your coils that just feels a little more lively.

Ever play hockey? It's like using a wood stick vs a carbon fiber one. The wood one just has more "feel" to it.

I didn't want to speak for you, but I had a feeling you would. I have a few mech. squonk mods but my daily use ones are regulated. I keep looking at the new Therions but I just can't justify getting a third one. Granted, the two I already have are garden variety DNA 75s, but that would mean I'd have to find another Nuppin also.

I'm going to start saving for that Therion squonker.
It looks sexy as hell.

It's all good though! Vape whatever you want so long as you're not on those nasty ass cancer sticks!

I allow myself a smoke every now and again.However I only keep my cigars on hand for special occasions.There was no chance in hell of me ever tossing out about $350+ worth of cigars.That's not counting the value of the humidors either.I also kept most of my pipes as they were mainly gifts from friends.
Kept my DuPont Table lighter too.

To me, that's just the occasional indulgence and not a habit. I, too, enjoy the very occasional cigar and I have a couple of humis myself. I JUST said to a coworker of mine how I wanted to try a pipe!

It's the ciggies that are the enemy for me. Having half a pack to a pack a day is what takes a toll on your health and not the rare cigar or pipe. At least IMHO!

I was at 2+ packs a day when I finally quit.Coughing up blood instead of phlegm is never a good sign.

Behold! The snake is going down the rabbit hole!
I have to warn you, you will either love it or hate it, that's the way with squonking! I started with one Pico and a LoPro. I got my first Nuppin from @The.Drifter and been chasing every single Nuppin ever since! I have a few each DB2, DB160, 2 Therions, a SVA clone from FT, a dual MOSFET and a single MOSFET (on order).
