Left my stealth MTL setup at home today so no fun will be had at work for me... still have my trusty Coppervape/ Wasp Nano to get me through but damn... I feel naked without it!

I don't think so; it looks much too airy to suit me at all. The Berserker's draw is excellent, it's just the flavor that's blah, but even that might not be a deal breaker; I could always go back to 31% flavoring! :giggle: But the leaking... THAT is the deal breaker.

So I watched Heathen’s video for the Dead Rabbit SQ today... 22mm, single coil, and it has an option for single 1mm airflow hope for MTL!!! You should look into it!

You know I'm actually alright with that.It does have a board of some kind.So it ain't strictly speaking a full on mechanical.I'll wait until it gets an actual review.Before I plop any money down though.

Being unable to regulate wattage is a total deal-breaker for me; when I put a new coil and/or wick, I start at about 9w... after 5-10 hits I go up about .2 of a watt... and keep doing that until I get to 9.6w, my preferred power level with my usual coils (1.6 to 2 ohms). I think the Sigelei squonker starts at 10w, so with that I'd have to use probably about a 2.5 ohm coil, but that's not a *huge* problem, just kind of a PITA. But being unable to change the wattage as it suited me, and also, losing vape quality with every puff... Shit, that last is what got me off my eRoll back in 2014! I've got a couple of tube mechs as vapocalypse insurance, and I've got several stashed Kicks to put in them, to give me the ability to set the vape as I want it, and keep it that way thru the battery's cycle. Anything else is 100% unsat.

Just ordered one of these to try has a front button for Sqounking with, will see if works ,
list says side holes are for removing doors an checking juice level ,
looks a little small for Sqounking,
CNC milled frame
says can swap 510 to a different versions ,
Mosfet fire, protections, on off ect So little maintenance over full mech.
Could be swapped out for switchfet v2 MM510 slap on some Stabwood doors.
Options to make it a more solid mod maybe. At a much lower cost to other switchfet sqounkers

Ive Chosen the SS version with blue resin doors, to suit most my SS atties.

Ooooh, that does sound promising! The Berserker has both a .8mm and a 1mm airflow setting, and I can do either one quite comfortably; I think the airflow on my cherished Achilles are about 1.2mm internally (just under the coil), and I have themwith very little tightening of their hex-screw AFC, so I think 1mm is probably just about my comfort zone. Thx!!! That's a good thing to know, since I don't often watch video reviews. :)

I'll be able to check how low the Sigelei squonk goes and what wattage increments it does this evening, mine is out for delivery.

Cool! It really is a GREAT looking mod, and with my very modest juice usage, even the smallish bottle (5ml, isn't it?) isn't that big a deal. And if I needed 2.5Ω coils, at least I could finally use up my spool of 30ga kanthal. :D

I'm looking at it now... but just looking at the deck, I swear I can't for the life of me figure out how the coil would be attached. I was a little concerned when I saw that huge honkin huff tip, but apparently it does come with a 510 adapter -- so I could use any normal drip tip, not just that tiny little one they include? I would need to be able to use one of my angled adapters, and then one of my acrylic Ming driptips.

Other than the fact that a tight draw has become so unpopular and hard to find, the biggest downside of very low wattage is that it does have a real tendency to spit, hence why I always use an angled adapter with any RDA, and even with some tanks.

Price I'm seeing is $36.99... not *terrible*, I spent about $35 on my first 2 KFL+'s, but it's a little more than I usually prefer to pay for an atomizer. Maybe I could find it on a good sale at some point.

The coil drops in the holes on the top of the posts. Unique design... the original is a pretty popular RDA. This one looks even better now that there’s been some fine tuning.

Anyone else catch the drama going on in T3 Mods on FB? Sounds like the owner took orders and ran waffles, ran into some financial trouble, and then spent the money elsewhere instead of fulfilling his orders.

Damn shame to see this happening AGAIN in the community. All too common of a tale. If you’re in the group I suggest you jump ship.

I keep seeing this same bullshit go on with several different modders. It’s always the same story of financial hardship, how they will finish orders and then have to close up shop.

Man up and get a third job, take out a loan, stop taking orders, or keep your business smaller.

Maybe 1 of those Phil Dmitri thingies will be more your style.
(Innokin Ares RTA)
The Push to Phil atty is not nearly tight enough for Andria.

I have a pretty food idea of what she likes and that atty is not it from all the reports and reviews I have seen. The pepper shaker air holes under the coil would not work at all for her.

Okay so I’m feeling pretty torn about my next vape purchase. I really want a regulated squonker and I’ve got a couple of things in mind.

Should I go for an Hotcig RSQ or a Floris DNA 60? The Floris will be probably 2-3 times as much but I think it will be a badass little mod. The RSQ is pretty badass too. Thoughts?

I am always about getting more for less...

Example: Raphael brought all those interested in his Mosfet Neo 3 today into discussion on where to get it manufactured... Vikset: at extreme costs to the customer ($375+) with 100% kick ass quality... or at Option B ($180'ish) which would also be 100% kick ass quality but 1/2 the price.

I said, "I'm Frugal, if I can get easily 2 for the price of 1, I'll take that every day that ends with Y"

She is in Vegas.
Popped up a picture of The Cromwell Resort and Casino (shameless plug) in another thread.

Didn't she say that her husband invited someone she's not fond of for xmas, so she's xmas'ing elsewhere? :giggle:

Normally I’d totally agree with you, but resale value on the Floris would probably be in the realm of $225-$250 where I only put in $150 in parts.

I’ll probably wind up with the RSQ but the Floris would be so damn sexy!

Naah you need to be educated on Frugal ;)
Frugal is a Pico Squeeze and a Wasp Nano and DIY juice.

Or an Achilles at 9.6w.... I vape all fucking day long, and rarely vape more than 5-6ml per day. :) And yes, it's DIY; I use a lot of flavoring so mine's a bit more costly than other DIYers', but still... 6 cents per ml beats HELL out ogf 25/50/100 cents per ml. :)

Anyone recalling the commercials for the Volkswagon Beetles will comprehend the humor I'm aiming to convey.

Just announced the new 2018 Coppervape Mod! We even have a nice brass toned one for you this year. Sorry, our legal department tells us we can longer include the fuzzy dice or hula girl ornaments. :)

Here I am, trying the Fuchai! It looks good! Good weight, fairly decent display, TC for :poop:. Power mode is fine. Well built but not something I'm likely to keep for long unless it's in the car and I don't mind it getting messed up. It doesn't go below 10 watts but it adjusts wattage in 0.1 increments. Nice squishy bottle. I also received the Pocket and raspberry lemonade, thank you @So619Cal . The Pocket is not my idea of a MTL anything, fair restricted DL. I had to try the juice.....it definitely needs some steeping and I will most probably dilute it with some 50/50 VG/PG. I guess I didn't pay attention even though I was told it is a 3 mg juice:zombie::wait: so I got a little buzz going. On to the GeekVape now, I'll have to pre-order it.

Bah, I spent a little more. I'm staying off cigarettes though and over the long haul imho the little extra for two Coppervape mods pays for itself. Not yet tried a Wasp Nano, might although it might need to wait a bit. Got the Gorge which seems to do real nice. In fact it seems similar enough to me to probably suit me as same difference to the Wasp Nano. Can only see a 2 mm diameter difference, which might have benefits either way.

Yeah that juice was supah fresh a supah fresh.... YEA-OWWW

So future note... no 3mg for Brew lol

It was mixed at 35pg...reason I mentioned 7-14 days...to allow it to mellow some

Hopefully you can get some use out of that Pocket ;)

What about a Rip Bobblehead?

I'll have to check on that. Rip may have limits on his merchandising rights. Legal has to sort that stuff out. I say legal but you know that old boy we call Huck cos it's all he can say? Well we send his inbred, cross eyed, cannibalistic, mutant butt down to see folks and they usually resolve things quickly.

Look at that service with a :), seems the Rip Bobbleheads are alright so long as they do not obstruct the squonk hole or fire button.

Yep have 2 coppervapes. Like mine a lot, work nice and almost indestructable. One is my outside working mod.
