Two winning rebuilds tonight!
Quitting while ahead.

I don't know what it is, but when I do ANY kind of clapton, it's like 50/50 for me. Just had a build that was good day one, but then I had to rip it out tonight. It was like something "went bad" flavor wise - just really "off". And this was clapton wire from Advanced...

Anyway, tonight I stuck to a "standby"...tired of messing around, these devices deserved a known good vape.
So it's simple, and I KNOW the "Cruiser" has room for bigger builds...tough shit. I threw this together nice and easy and it's perfect.
Check out the old school tip! :D:D

So what's the build and how does it vape on the haku?

Yo Bonkz!
A last minute little work project this weekend so I'm up with the vampire bats again.
So weird because I'm about to post in the Billet Box thread for the first time.
I feel like I'm cheating on you guys!

Really? Love a fused Clapton in my Haku. Too much spitback or something?

Higher ohms on this new build may have something to do with it also.

Ha... Guilty as charged.
Well just so ya know @BrewBear @jasonandsarah & @snake94115 ...
The only one over there to answer my inquiry was our own @jmoney426 !

Not bailing on squonklife entirely just expanding my horizons ; )
Pretty much exhausted my squonk options for now, can't get much better than what I'm rocking. I do have my eye on a couple things but they won't be released for a month or two.
Annnd as a format for traveling squonking is not my favorite. Leaving in a few months so the timing is right, excited to see what the Billet Box fuss is all about after all these years. Now that they're readily available on the website ...the pull is too strong!

Ouch... when I put the fused clapton I mentioned above in, with legs down... I don't position it any lower... legs come off parallel to the deck... just center it to the AF and vape away.

Zero spit back...I mean, it can happen, if you almost over squonk and then take a rip...will get a mouth full, but that goes for any atty ;) especially if you take a rip like I do...pure DTL

Oh that’s a bummer. Mine ohms out to around .35 so it’s not very rowdy... I also close down the airflow about half

Happy to help brother.
I got really into the BBs in the spring and was pretty active over there in that thread. At one point I had three of the SXK Billets and now I’m down to my last one. I’m tempted to unload it in order to find more Squonk gear but then I remember how much I like the mod lol.

Morning bonks.

Bush fire about 1.5 miles away today. Realized how unprepared for fire season we are. 1 house lost, but luckily it was mostly park land.

Appreciate it dude.
I asked the same question on Facebook and now I have 4 new 'friends' and was added to 6 closed Billet Box groups.
Here we go again...
If y'all don't hear from me for awhile you'll know why

Is it my imagination or lack of coffee that make me think the DNA 75C likes coils with higher resistance compared to the DNA 75?

Umm the top voltage out from a 75 is 6 volts I thin and 9 for the 75C?

A 1.8 coil will only do 20 watts on a 75.
36 watts max for a 1 ohm coil.

And these new mods coming out that claim 75+ watts and are only step down output....

75c isn't all improvements though

they added things like a sleep mode that makes first fire delay if it sits for an hour or more, with no way to turn that off

i prefer the 75 standard, but that is just me

Curse you!
I was intentionally staying off eBay.
Then I browsed my saved searches and this was JUST listed. Couldn't pass it up.
Was going to make him a best offer but didn't want to miss out.
Enablers. All of you!!

As for the Limelight - that price is madness.

btw, sorry for the excessive non-squonky posts mates...

as you were soldiers.

I'm not big on tube mods - but that little fucker is an exquisite piece - would take a lot to get me to part with mine
