, what builds do you guys prefer in it? If I haven't said it before, @The.Drifter is one cool dude!

I like single coil center builds in the Nuppin. For me I use 24G SS316L, 3mm ID, 7 wraps for 0.35 ohms. To fit this size coil I have to use my custom caps. You can build to suit your ohm range but I recommend you use 2.5mm ID coils max with the Standard nuppin cap. 2mm would be ideal. Keep mind the gap between the coil and the center post and between the top of the coil and the topcap chamber. You dont want to short out your coil with your drip tip so please mind the distances .
So on to the pics, this is for my 3mm coils, but you can tailor the coil to suit your needs.
Basically I just wind my coil and bend and snip it like this:
the bent leg will fit into the center post first. You will have to mount the coil on it side to get the screw tight on the center pin. I use a 3mm pin to keep the coil straight while mounting it. Once tightened i just pull it around to the top and push the long leg into the deck and tighten that screw. then I position the coil like this:
I already pre-turned your center pin so all the mount holes line up in a row, this will make it easier to install this coil and it will leave the squonk holes at 90 degree angles to the coil. This way after its wicked, you will have the squonk holes free of wicking material and will allow your nuppin to squonk and drain correctly. Try to avoid putting wicking material on the squonk holes and the surrounding insulator channel.
This 24G SS 316L coil at 7 wraps on a 3mm bit ohmed out cold at 0.34:
and rises to 0.50 ohms when fired:
Ideal build IMHO for a mech squonker because the cold ohms give it a faster ramp up time and them mellows out nicely.
I use Rayon for wicking, basically I just pull a amount thru the coil til its just snug in resistance. A trick I use that works great for cotton or rayon is after I pull the wick thru, I use a pick and pull the strands of the fibers away from the center of the coil to get all the fibers to line up in one direction, Looks like this when Im done:
Now I just do two snips per wick leg, I start by doing a 45ish degree angle cut toward the deck ending at just below the top of the deck like this:
then I do the second 45ish degree cut from the coil to the deck like this:
try to cut the bottom of the wicks so it land where its pictured above, this way when you tuck in the coils the ends will rest on the deck without bending:
mounting the coil this way will leave nice channels for the juice to squonk and drain properly
Then I just put on the cap so the air channels hit the coil from both sides and come up thru the drip tip like this:
Once again, just how I build for my vape style, it can be easily tailored to your preferred style/wire/ohms

Can I get any recommendations on a way to get the best flavor on the origen little. Prefer single coil but will do dual coil if the flavor is better.

This is my first non reo squonker I bought. The mod that started the craze and hole in the wallet lol Hadaly, happily, purchased later. 
I get the feeling this is going to me my first built on the Nuppin. Thank you for the very detailed pictorial.I like single coil center builds in the Nuppin.

I use single coil, usually 0.5 - 0.8 ohms, 2 mm ID. Check out the post on Pg 125, read below . I think there is some more stuff on Pg124 or so http://vapingunderground.com/threads/squonkers-are-bonkers.183977/page-125#post-1653483
From going to think I might get around to selling mine to seeing the price V1 Roundhouses are going for, guess I'm on the lookout for another :/

Hopefully fulfills your dream squonk needs, lol
Just ordered mine!
Hope so, Juice....sure looks like a nice mod, + 10 ml bottle, + will hold my 30-40 mm non-squonk attys too.....
Stupid question, but is there anything that needs to be done to run a non squonk atty or is it just plug and play? I might want to use my aromamizer plus on it from time to time...Hope so, Juice....sure looks like a nice mod, + 10 ml bottle, + will hold my 30-40 mm non-squonk attys too.....
Now into the squonk question...attys...
I have velocity and velocity mini clones, Hastur v2s (on the way) and am thinking I'm gonna need one or two more for the time being. Def thinking Icon, now just need one more good addition that won't break the bank preferably from us vendor as I'm so sick of the slowboat wait...
Thanks for any input and suggestions.
Plug and play...or screw any atty in and Vape.....
You don't have a Goon (yet)?......
So I'm guessing the goon for the win? Regular or l.p.?You don't have a Goon (yet)?......
Regular, much better flavor and easy builds.

The Hadaly is super-sweet - my personal fave right now
The OG Goon must modified with your own squonk pin. The Goon 22 also must be modified, but it puts out a lot more flavor, though you lose a little room inside, lol.
The Goon LP is somewhat finicky, but really puts out flavor compared to the OG
That new Druga by Augvape is pretty sweet for just about any kind of build, and it comes with a variety of drip tips and a squonk pin
The dome screws on it are kinda wonky, but it vapes with great flavor and cloud age
Brian, remember all the stuff you sold me on the cheap prior to moving to Hawaii?
PM me your address, I'll send you a Goon.....I must have 15+... all authentic, already bottom fed.....
Thanks! I'm really looking forward to it.
Wow man that's awesome of you. Feels like a lifetime ago!Brian, remember all the stuff you sold me on the cheap prior to moving to Hawaii?
PM me your address, I'll send you a Goon.....I must have 15+... all authentic, already bottom fed.....
I'll shoot ya a pm.
Thanks my brother!

Now that's a good deal!!!
You ain't kidding! There's no love quite like squonking love!
Octo-floris?

$22.87 with MAP coupon code.
having an issue this morning so I put my peerless rda on my drip box 60w cause its a little smaller than my dripbox 160 and was gonna be working outside today but it doesn't fire I mean it takes forever to fire I have to pulse like 10 times before I get any vapor. It has a fresh battery that I just took off the charger. But when I switch the pin and put it on my 60w eleaf I stick it fires right up quickly I don't get it both 60w devices .6 ohm build any thoughts
The dripbox isn't fully regulated. It's a 60W *maximum* device, but it's output depends completely on your build. You can't just set the wattage at 60. With a .6 ohm build, it's putting out less than 30W with a fully charged battery. If you have a dual coil or large mass build in there that you are used to running at 60W, that 30 isn't going to be nearly enough.
that's what I thought just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing anything wrong. Thanks a lot dude Guess Ill put on my 160 and just wait for my frankenskull
You bet man, I'm happy to help!

I still have the dark brown frosted door if you want to try it on your orca? It's all yours if you want it...
so you think that ill have the same issue? so what would be a good mod to use for the peerless? should I do a lower ohm build?which will output the same as your "60 watt" mod, maybe just less voltage drop
Also think that im ordering a hadaly or a velocity today. Also whats a good mech squonker that I wont have to take out a second mortgage on lol

Coppervape might work also
Did I mention that I got a brass coppervape on the way lol

Yes, all mechanical mods will output wattage based solely on coil resistance. I prefer low mass single coil builds on my mechanical mods for this reason (lower mass ramps up more quickly). It also saves a lot of battery life. You can do single coil on the Peerless too, but I prefer the Hadaly for my mechs.
so do you think the coppervape is good? lol gonna order one now
gonna go home and put in a single coil build and test it out thanks
