Sort of glad I waited on the Molly V2.

Going to PM Ludovic and ask how much it would be just for the Delrin enclosure and the 510 milled for a ModDog Nano 16. (1mm shelf instead of a .5mm)
Got a v2 coming, looking forward to it as really like the v1. Sound bloke as well which always helps

personally not a fan of the MM bottle, way too stiff (keep in mind, I like Da One bottles which are super soft).

Am kinda curious in MM's silicone bottles tho not enough to import some :/

I think the Capo might work for you but the bottle doesn't have a cap so you would have to figure something out there, a way to cap it off.
I haven't had mine long enough to get a feel on battery life yet.
For traveling I would personally use a single coil Pulse RDA on it, for me they are the closest thing to being leak proof than any RDA I've used and you will get better battery life out of a single coil.

On the Therion, @CrazyChef 20 gave me a tip for better battery life. Less wire and single coil.
I was using up 2 batteries with every bottle, I switched to a Pulse 22 and now I can empty the bottle with one battery.

I rarely vape over a single coil, even in my Goons, lol - and yes, on the Therion, have it on energy save, running a brand new VCT6 at 26 W with a .7 clapton, and it sucks down that battery way too quick. Wouldn't mind so bad if it was easy to change the battery on the fly, but it ain't

Was really stoked for the MMs - until we started getting affordable silicone

Am recovering from a major RA flareup so it did not come a minute too soon

Leaking is not an issue for me, won't use one that does, period

Reluctantly got a Capo last night, but still. IJoy and longevity don't seem to go together at all

Might just fiddle around with my old Picos - they don't seem to like my current builds too much, but might be able to come up with something I can live with for a couple of weeks

Hi Bonkbuddies!!
: P

Having a happy time right now and wanted to share with y'all... cranking the Jackson 5 Christmas album and cleaning the flat. Next couple days off, bring on the tree!!
Also got my tickets for France next year, was supposed to be Feb/March now it's May 20 - July, and Oct 20 - Dec, with a couple visits over to the UK.
I'm soooo relieved. Was kinda feeling like I was running out of time having to leave in Feb.
Annd even better, had a visit from my ex-wife (we don't get along) and it was awesome. Exchanged some things and didn't strangle each other!
She brought this weird harvest spice candle and it's making the place suuuuper cozy.
Totally sunny outside but might as well be snowing, I think I'll squonk a little menthol juice for the festive vibe ; ))
I wish I had a fireplace!

Holiday Hugs to ya!
:confetti:

It's good if you can be friends with your ex. My ex and I reached that status years ago, but everytime I actually speak to him on the phone, I remember exactly why I'm no longer married to him, and then call my husband and thank him for not being my ex, or even LIKE my ex. :giggle:

I guess it all depends on what you consider leaking.
Between the dozen or so RDAs that I have now and the ones I've been through, unless I'm missing something all RDAs are going to leak under the right circumstances.
If I'm going out and about and going to carry in my pocket I always use an RTA or an RDTA, the Serpent is a great tank and so is the Centaur.
If there is an RDA out there that doesn't leak please tell me.

For sure!
We were together for 22 years and it was a bitter ending. So many memories both beautiful and ugly. Finally at that place where we can be civil and adults about everything (I think) but has taken almost 3 years to get there.

Agreed.... MM bottles are still way to stiff for me, haven't tried boiling one yet though. I heard that helps a lot?
I love the cappy kompacts, have a few extra ytfk bottles as well though.

Even the best RTAs will leak under the right circumstances, lol

But I pocket my squonkers everyday and don't worry about leakage

I dislike squonk atties that don't drain - its why the Entheon is not in rotations for instance

Does anyone know which clones are the best for the pocket RDA and the narca? I have a Narda and love the vape but building it is a project! I've heard these other 2 are easier to build and a great vape. I am also open to other suggestions as well, like the b2k. I can't find one of those either and have read good things about them.

I can't find authentics of either of them and I also.know they'll be expensive so I figured I'd try the clones.

I like the extra squishiness of the YFTK but have found the SJMY are close and fit in my teeny Orcas etc a little better

Same for me and the TLF.
Da One bottles are teeny too but way too gummi for me.
The Pulse bottle is great. But a proprietary size. Maybe the only thing I like about that mod. Well, and the 20700. But still a happy meal toy to me!

Only RTA I use is the Engines for that reason, not saying they couldn’t leak but it would be difficult being top airflow, the whole chamber would have to flood or a bad O ring. Only rta I’ve seen you could fill without closing the airflow. The new geekvape Zeus is a similar design, watching for some user feedback.

The best leak proof RTA I use is the Petri - flipping amazing little device, even if it is a PITA to dry burn

Simple top fill. You do have to close the air to fill, but no juice control, which is fine with me

The Ulton clone of the Pocket is flawless haven't tried the YFTK to compare but I can't see it being any better TBH

Only clone of the Narca I've seen is the Coppervape which should be decent as their version of the Narda was very solid I still use mine regularly.

After looking at this guy's feedback (a ton positive, but a few a bit sketchy) and the item description (the authentic shouldn't come with a screwdriver), buyer beware.
The only real way to tell the authentics from the clones is the domed inside of the top cap. All the clones are stepped.
I bought one anyway, will compare it to my authentics and report back if these are legit.
They are $40 on the Armageddon site but shipping brings it close to $50, so this is a good buy if they are the real deal. Especially considering I paid $80 for em when they came out : (((
But such a great great atty.

My faves are the SJMY.. perfect middle ground between too stiff and too smooshy.
Haven't tried those but they sound similar to the cappy kompact. Squishy but still firm, the yftk bottles are super super softs...... sometimes ill use the cappy all day and then pick up the yftk and push way to hard. Boxer bottles are like that as well but I rarely pick that up anymore.

Its more of a nice restrictive type draw , in-between , like the Narda is found pocket much simpler to drop a coil in , not angled like Narda hard to pick between them. Just using pocket more recently probably cause its new,
does need tinkering with build exact height an such for best results like both Narda , an haku,
But we all know an do this any way.

For some reason it picked older pic have the By-Ka drip tip on it past week
I dont use them as cloud chaser RDAs more flavour chaser
at lower power so smaller bore tips work nicely for that,
By-KA tip keeps cool when top cap heats up.

I'm confused, I thought we were talking about Squonkers and RDAs.
I don't have an issue with the RTAs that I have at all, sure they might seep a little but I feel confident carrying them around in my pocket.
With an RDA or an RDTA, unless they are deleted of juice in the juice well, sitting down with one in my pocket it will leak.

That being said, on the iJoy Capo I think battery life may be an issue.
When I've first got mine I put an 18650 in just so I could use it until the 20700 was charged and I burned through that in no time at all.
That's using the Combo Triangle and the coils supplied with the kit.
I have no idea what the wire is on the supplied coils (I'm assuming Kanthal) but they read 0.18 ohms.
After getting the 20700 charged I put it in and the battery life doesn't seem much better. I have it set at 50 watts. I've charged the 20700 3 times since last night. I have put a Pulse 22 on it with a single coil to see if it gets any better but the way it looks, I'm getting better battery life out of my Therion BFs.

Speaking about squishy bottles one thing I forgot to add about my new mods. Last month I got some of these bottles to test out https://www.fasttech.com/products/8092500 and have found them to be perfect for my style of squonking. Not to soft and not hard at all but very quickly suck back excess juice. I still add thicker walled tubing to them but no air leaks detected or juice so I am adding them to all my new mods that are for sale if they use 18650 batteries. For the 20700 ones I am still using 10ml ones also made from PE that work the same. Those were modified 10ml needle nose bottles from fasttech that I used previously.

Yikes - probably wasted another $40 on the Ijoy, lol

But, I generally dislike vaping under .8 so might be able to get a little more life out of it

I get in clouds bro moods every other day, I love squonking with the Apocalypse.
My beater 'running to the store' mod is a Battlestar with a Big Baby Beast. No muss no fuss. Small enough and if I dropped it and killed the whole set-up, I'd just grab another.
