Squonkers are Bonkers
- Thread starter DogMan
- Start date
I won one of these from VV recently (first vape giveaway win ever). I haven't wicked or vaped an RTA since I started squonking last fall so it should be interesting when it gets here.
So the Brick'ium arrived today...quick bath in the ultrasonic and alcohol swish after for the bottle and she's up and running.
It's heavy, like a brick
But I will say it's well built and not as large in the hands as one might think, comfortable. But if you're a small person with child hands...probably not a mod for you.
It's ultra responsive...compared to my DNA200 at the same wattage, this thing fires like a mech in VW mode...going to play with bypass later.
All in all I am pleased with it for the whole 15mins it's been here...
Will revise later and give my opinion of it if it's worth it's weight (pun intended) down the line, or if I goofed and should of bought 3.64 picos
EDIT: Its Official LOL

Definitely a great deal.I got 2 120's and a Royal Hunter rda a few weeks back for $20 and thought that was a good deal,but this new one is so much better.
I just ordered that deal myself. They've got a new watermelon flavor. Not really worried about the tank

Thats a sweet deal... I'm glad they got new flavors. About time...doughboy is da bomb

Found me a new good reveiwer. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWo8AnyPSFBpD8JqQ8Biceg
I'm not into bakery flavors, what are some good lemonade-ish flavors you guys like?
I just ordered the watermelon jolly rancher and main squeeze is a lemon strawberry tangerine something. I'm pretty sure The sauce La has a lemonade flavor

Neither the Basium nor the Squeeze 2 come in white so no go from here.
Thank you both! I usually DIY but I've been very busy lately and figured it wouldn't hurt to know a couple of good places. I got the same e-mail with the $39.99 from Abstrakt so I'll try them too. Since I usually vape 1 mg/ml nic or 0 mg/ml I'll get a 3 mg and a couple 0 mg of the flavors I want to try.
Yeah,that is one i want to try.So far i've only tried dough boy and meringue,their both pretty good,but dough boy seems very lightly flavored,the meringue i've been vaping every day though.I also want to try the peach rings one,cant remember the name of it,but it will be in my next order.
Something loop. I ordered that as well. I stayed with the fruity ones this round. Got doughboy and classic last sale

Main squeeze tasted soapy to me(dont ask how i know) lol...
Sent from a very cloudy room
Same here,i diy 99% of the time,but i like to keep a few good juices around for those times i don't want to make anything,so i've been trying out a few places that have the good deals like Abstakt and the The sauce,i always have some of their caramel waffle cappuccino on hand,love that stuff haha.
We've all eaten soap.lol
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Well anyone over the age of 30 has I'm sure.
I forgot about Classic,that is another one i really want to try.I knew doughboy was 1 wanted to try because everybody raves about it,then for my 2nd bottle i had a hell of a time deciding between meringue or classic,then the classic sold out,so the choice became pretty easy haha,but it will deinitely be on my next order.
I won't do the meringue but I'll have the whole line when it gets here. Still have some if the classic and doughboy

I just got some Main Squeeze 2 weeks ago and tastes fine.
Maybe your buds are funky at the moment.
Yeah, but your Main Squeeze is different than his Main Squeeze......
My Main Squeeze only tastes soapy when in the shower!Yeah, but your Main Squeeze is different than his Main Squeeze......
Glad to see we're keeping it clean
Thanks for sharing this. I am glad that Dean has got these out for folks to buy. Nice that you showed the side-by-side photos and also the weight of each device.So the Brick'ium arrived today...quick bath in the ultrasonic and alcohol swish after for the bottle and she's up and running.

I had a Lost Vape Drone, which was a great device overall but way too heavy for me @ ~ 375g with batts, juice and the OG Goon on top.
I truly hope this one meets all of your expectations
Thanks for sharing that link. I am definitely going to check out his channel.

Regulated, at home mod. Never had a regulated squonker where I can adjust the wattage, always mech or mosfet.
So yeah I'm good with the purchase.
Was this at $62 or the Palm DNA75C 21700 @ $465 and wait up to 3 months for it ONCE the list happens (Which has been soon, for over a month)
Only using it at 26w lol
Yes, thanks for the reminder on the silicone bottles. Likely I will grab the 3-pack of bottles. At first I plan to get just the one Pico Squeeze unit, and if I am happy with it, I can always order another right away.Yeah the only problem is when you finally use one, you will of wished you bought 2
Pick up the silicone bottles from Wismec

If you are ok with a single 18650 regulated squonker, the Hcigar VT Inbox v3 was $66 on FT with MAP code.
I've been very happy with mine now for the past 5 months. At first I wanted it for the accurate TC via the DNA75, but have found that most of the time I am just in wattage mode betw 20-25w and very happy with that on either the Wasp Nano or Nudge 22 with a 0.42 build, or ~33w on the Goon v1 with a 0.5 Ohm build in single coil mode.
Keep in mind all the foolishness with import tariffs and the mess that's gonna create (if it happens). $16 for a second mod is not that much when the budget allows but you know best what is what. Most of us Picofans bougt two and three at a time, and since Pico 2 is out, who knows how long the original Pico Squeeze will be around.
Yes, this worries me too. You have some wisdom here for sure.
I will have to see what I can actually spend. This past 2 months I have gone a bit crazy with vape gear purchases (related to the Billet Box and one tank) and not sure how much longer I can maintain such a frenzy of spending...
But in context, the Squeeze is cheap enough to not be such a big deal for a second one at the same time...
That spending is every month here lately. Well this year. Lol

Not big on TC...although the main reason I would think of spending that much on a regulated ( Palm ) is for the replay feature.
But in all, my TC settings for years has been the release of the button
and sort of the allure of the Brick'ium
There is light at the end of the tunnel.....or another train coming
I have pretty much settled on the gear I like and got the stuff I wanted, some crazy expensive (for me) some not. I may get another SXKUSBBB and look at that silly VandyVape Simpleton EX but I've pretty much reached saturation point. You'll get there too.....eventually
It is a nice feature to have, that is certain, but I got a massive nic. buzz setting it up. Then I got my first BB, then the second......
It has been way too long since I've been on this thread.And rather than try to catch up on the 10+ pages of stuff since my last visit I thought I'd just jump right back in to the deep end.
So with all that said I only have 1 question.
Have y'all seen the newest from Vandy Vape?
It's called the (Simple EX)
It comes as a Kit.

Rda looks ok
I like the IDEA of it, but the internal non-replaceable battery is putting me off. I'll wait for real-world reports on if you can get thru an 8-hr day before recharging. Something like this, at a lower price than $55-60, and more like $30 has the chance to compete directly with pod systems like the Breeze 2, without the cost of forever buying replacement coil heads.
Having said that, as per advice here and previous and continuous comments from this Bonkers crowd, and from the hype train on /ecr, I just purchased 3x of the Pico Squeeze v1 and a 3-pack of the Luxotic BF silicone bottles from FT, for a whopping total of OMG - only $55
I figured that one unit would be daily use, and the other two are backups, and buying 3x units now before the China tariffs kick in, hedges my bets on replacements. I wanted to get the 5-pack of the little magnetic bottle door covers, but that will likely have to wait since I've already spent too much now. Fear of the China tariffs vs. fear of explaining my spending spree this month to my GF ---hmmm, I guess I am more afraid of availability and cost increase, but now have to spend MORE money on something shiny for her so she forgets about my small indulgence...
I know $55 is a pittance when you consider the high-end stuff that lots of you guys are using, but I'd rather have cheap units in redundancy than a single, expensive device that I could not afford to replace.

Also, while digging for coupon codes on FT, came across this thread in the PROMOTIONS section of their forums, where they are offering quite a few atomizers, some with a nice discount (you have to scroll down to the added posts to see all the products:

Yep I have 5 Squeezes and may buy a couple more...
is the election over already?
those china tariffs to USA somehow made OUR dollar crash in australia, i don't get it
It is interesting, I've said it a few pages ago, I was even tempted to buy one.....Thanks for posting this review, now I know it will either have too much air, or be a little flat for my style of mtl. If @chohan gives it a thumbs up, then i'll have to reconsider. Till more reviews pop up, I'll just stick with my BBs
They just saw Dollar, figured "let's screw them over"....The elections are over, repubicans (pun intended)won again....Just remember to vote early and vote oftenis the election over already?

I just placed my order at FT, no sense in waiting for the leading idiots to mess things up for us working folks. Three more Picos, two ten packs of silicone bottles and ten packs of EUC coils. It should last me a while....
Think you are right. Since our dollar is still 74 us cents. But dived against euro etc.They just saw Dollar, figured "let's screw them over"....The elections are over, repubicans (pun intended)won again....Just remember to vote early and vote often

Ha ha!
I wonder if the Chinese vendors will notice an increase in orders from the USA - especially this week in things related to the Pico Squeeze. If I am happy with mine, I will have to wait until next month before I can get a few more, which is likely about when they will arrive in 21-30 days...
I was thinking even to just remove the mosfet/electronics board from one and just make it as close to full mech as possible (yes I know 'wiring' disqualifies it, but I could use some 12g or 14g solid copper wire like ROMEX used in household A/C electrical wiring to keep voltage drop low)....
