Squonkers are Bonkers

Hello everyone, I'm new to VU, but have been vaping (and squonking) for years. Thought I'd pop in here and say hello to the rest of the squonk folks, and show you my Frankensquonk. This is a Vapedroid C3D1 converted by a friend over on ECR. The conversion is great, no issues, only problem is the terrible paint on the mod. In a few weeks I'm going to send it back to him and get it powdercoated blue.

Flave?
Except not exactly 810, though you can make one fit by replacing the o-ring. And careful if ordering a clone, cuz they aren't very clear about which one is a clone of the original 24mm and which is the 22.

Love
T hadaly; but would love a tad more airflow.
Unfortunately I’m at the stage with vaping that I’m picky..,really really picky.
I want 24mm, single coil, side airflow, a tad more airflow than the hadaly, hadaly flavor, an 810 driptip.

wonder if the UK TPD ammendments will mean a downturn in mainstream squonkers

means no more attysmith/hellfire squonkers, i guess

It appears that they can still sell the mod there just not the bottles.
So it looks like Mods will be sold without bottles.
They can still be exported to the US and such though.
The bottles cannot be sold as a squonk bottle or listed as an accessory for the mod.
But if you buy a plastic bottle that just happens to fit then that is OK. And I suspect that the bottles will be sold with caps so they could be used for something else.

Dean has a good explanation on his latest Vlog.

Ohh and they are also cracking down on the big tanks that have a removable silicone plug in them to get their capacity to under 2 ml.
And no large tanks can be sold with an atty with smaller tank as standard.
And no kits sold to upgrade a tank capacity to above 2 ml.
And per Dean and Todd UPS is working to enforce those rules on individual import items as well...
And maybe Fedex.

I have an old squonker that was designed to use a 10ml plastic juice bottle. Since 10ml is the max size in the UK (IIRC), problem solved.

I think it's BS, but I'm having a hard time getting worked up over it. The UK's approach to vaping, while marginally restrictive, beats the everlovin' ;!&#_·°·¬¿· outta the US's asinine plans.

Further, seeing this coming, I would have bought a couple of large everythings in advance. Just as I've bought enough gear, here, to last me until I die (unless I live to 115).

Flame away UK Bonkers... Sorry...

Very bad experience with the Armageddon squonk. Plus all the fake "made in the usa" has made me decide that Armageddon can't get my money anymore. I don't give a shit where it's made but don't lie to me about it! Ya know?

Used to be gold but no more. Well some is left. Surprised by this recurve thingy. Not a bad vape. Acts like a 22mm. Reminds me of a pulse 22 but way better AFC and flavor.

Yep I commented on this somewhere on here a couple of weeks ago?

Excerpt from the above link.
And, of course, a 25 percent price hike would hurt vapers too, not just businesses. Although most of the e-liquid we use is made in the U.S., just about all vaping hardware is made in China. According to American Vaping Association president Gregory Conley, the proposed tariff will also include batteries intended for vaping products.

I honestly dont know anyone that approves of a single thing that Trump has done since elected. I cannot watch nor read mainstream news any more because I am tired of all the misery that his nonsense has been creating.

I cannot wait for another election, for literally ANYONE ELSE to become the POTUS.

Sorry for the politics, which I usually avoid, but so many products besides vape stuff comes from China, and this policy would have far reaching consequences in ALL commerce here in the USA.

Yeah, I was looking at the clones on 3f.. I tend to prefer simpler things that can't "go wrong" - that clone had complaints about misthreaded the DT/top and then rendering it useless.. Frankly, I figured the same would occur with the Authentics.

Anyone here try the NoFear Unlimited 14mm dia. mini RSA by NoName mods?

Please offer your experience and/or thoughts :)

$109 for authentic: http://www.vapinart.com/cart/NoFear-Unlimited-by-NoName-P2821.aspx

FT and 3F have clones for ~$8, maybe worth a shot to try the clone in my pursuit of a tiny chamber RSA...

The No Fear Again (V2 version) was supposed to be a much better attie, but I never could get my hands on one

No idea if the clone is any good or not

Yes, I saw those complaints on FT as well. I kinda hoped it was just 'user-error'. The Delrin top-cap seems like I good idea tho, since such a small chamber is likely to be on the warm side of things, and rather than SS, would likely help to prevent burnt lips.

Thinking something like either an ~8-10mm drip tip, or one of the NarCa-style or Gas Mods GR1-style ~5mm drip tips would go well on that.

Also been thinking about the GR1 drip tip 'kit' that has the black, frosted and ultem tips to use with the Wasp Nano since they are so small and come in a 3-pack, with colors that match the offerings of the Wasp Nano top-caps. FT and 3F have these GR1 3-pack drip tip kits for ~$10, so not too expensive either.

Thanks for the reply and the info about the V2 version. If I come across one of these I will let you know. :)

I highly doubt that - No Name is a very high quality Italian made line of atties

I have two others (No Fear Unlimited and No Toy) and they are smooth as butter and finely built

So how would you describe the vape on the Unlimited and/or the No Toy?

How is the flavor? the draw? does it get hot? What builds did you like in them?

Have never built the No Toy - it was bundled in a deal for a mod I wanted. But it is nicely balanced, and came apart and together again like a breeze.

Haven't had The Unlimited in rotation for at least a year

The DT is wide open, so it is a little on the airy side, and the body does get very warm fairly fast but the flavor is on target. Can't honestly remember what kind of build I was using on it :rolleyes:

Only stockpile and keep an open eye. Nothing to be done for it.

I meant the plastic/whatever DT cross-threading. It can happen to anyone. (Admittedly, I think a lot of such complaints are from those that are careless, but it DOES occur)
