Howdy everyone!
So im looking to get a squonk mod and rda ,this will be my first squonk .
I have about 2k to burn ,kinda want a duel battery squonk but they all sooo ugly ,any suggestions for my budget ? Should i just go single battery ? Don't mind if it's mech or vw

Welcome @gifgat, Damn, you do have a liberal budget. Either your'e loaded or single... LOL.

So much to choose from. RDA, single or dual coil? I would go for the Recurve but it is a single coil.
Mod, what is your preference? Metal, plastic, wood, Mechanical, partially regulated or fully regulated? My preference is the Coppervape Mech Squonker. Cheap but all I will ever need in a squonk mod.

Buy two of each of the above for the budget you have available..

Regards and welcome again.
 
Thanks for he warm welcome! @Raindance

It's payday soon and I like spending my money before I get it !
That's the first time I've seen that mod and I really like it ! Its the first metal squonk I've seen for that cheap...think its a winner
As for the rda i do prefer dual coil but maybe something that doesn't over squonk and leak easy since im new to it?or is that not really a big thing

been looking at the drop but ppl seem to say it spitbacks allot

Welcome. For dual coils you should go for a dual battery mod if mechanical - for proper battery life. Otherwise a regulated squonker. The 20700 battery Vandyvape 80W Pulse might be a good option.
 
Recurve ftw. No over squonking and flavour for days. Its a single coil though.

Vandy vape pulse is all the hype at the moment. Was going to get one but then the Pico Squeeze 2 appeared on the horizon. Will wait for more reviews before I make my choice.

Thanks! Makes sense ,I've been looking at the Vandyvape 80W Pulse and I do like it just kinda feels over priced atm , R1000 for 80 watt squonk im not sure

The RSQ is the same price region. Thats what they go for.

Spitback is more a function of coils and wicking than the atty itself although it is one of those topics where opinions may be divided. The Recurve is pretty oversquonk resistant due to the airflow design, but there are others with the airflow holes placed high to prevent it. Dead Rabbit comes to mind as well. In practice all RDA's can be oversquonked, some are just easier to than others and yes it is a big thing. Never happens when it is easy to clean your hands and mod.

The single coil atties are nice on a single cell mod due to the lower power draw. Longer battery life, a slight sacrifice in cloud production is about all drawback I can think of.

Just a word of caution, if you are going the mechanical route be aware the dangers. A good knowledge of coil building and Ohm's law are critical to "mech" safe. A coil with too low a resistance for the cell being used can be fatal. Literally. Please be safe.

Welcome @gifgat , for some wicking advice for the Zeus have a look at this link, it may be of some help to you, the Zeus is an amazing tank if it is set up correctly. Tried and tested by quite a number of formites, and no dry hits.:cool:
https://www.ecigssa.co.za/if-you-were-going-to-buy-an-rta.t46608/page-2#post-631458

As for your quest into squonking, the Pulse seems like a great option for what you want, also with the 20700 battery a bit more cloud time between recharges, but the RSQ is a solid performer if slightly lighter in the trunk with only a 18650 powering it nonetheless, and feedback on the Recurve has been only positive. For mechs make sure that you are up to date with your studies of Ohms law, and battery safety, otherwise it will bite you in the arse, and you may only get one chance. :confused: The Coppervape is a great value option, virtually indestructible, and a good hitter with a Hadaly in my case. The Lost Vape Furyan looks enticing as another mech option, 21700 powered, I’m waiting for mine and the time it is taking is killing me!:D

It may take you a while to get the correct setup that works perfectly for you, so my advice would be to visit a vape shop and throw some questions at them, run it through the forum, and save yourself a lot of money in the process. I think most would advise that you start with regulated to gain some experience before you move to mech, but in the end the choice is yours.

Wishes for many happy clouds to you.:)

Hi , thanks! i'll try that that on the zeus ,just sick atm so won't even taste a dryhit :D
atm i realy like the look of the ohmboy with a dead rabbit that someone pmed me picks of ,if i do get that, next month will be some kind of mech ,I'm pretty confident with my ohms law and battery safety , I did allot of research and watched allot of vids
 
And I do have a vapeking like 25 km from me ...maybe i'll go bombard them with questions tomorrow :D
 
I am going to be the lucky recipient of hcigar aurora soon. Will post the review for it soon, single battery compatible with 18650, 21700 and 20700. Currently using a gbox, awesome but ugly. My hopes are high for this new squonker

Howdy @gifgat ... my 2c ... I have been through many mech sqounkers.. I have found nirvana with a dotmod sqounk with a 20700 and 3x 28/34 fused clapton on a single coil rda

.. I had 75w mods but never did the trick for me ... 20700 batteries (vapecell or I joy 5leg only) works well

Yeah that's what i'm afraid of if i go single battery regulated ,why i was thinking x2 battery regulated or 1 battery mech
 
Definitely get a 21700 squonk . they give you nearly the run time of a dual if you vaping in the lower range . I would wait on The nikola 100w . should be hitting shelves soon . I'm personally waiting on the Pico squeeze 2 because that size is amazing .

Here's the nikola

Squonk mods that I love are the Therion BF 75C, VT Inbox and the Luxotic.

Good squonking atties are the Recurve, Drop and Gorge.

You can't go wrong with a Reo too!
