Most squonkers hold an 8ml or 10 ml bottle.
And truth? You can just re-wick and swap bottles...but me and some other folks, just collect more mods to run more flavors, lol.
So what is the refil/change process... I dont ever change my wicks in my tanks i just drop in the next flavor, most my flavors are complimentary so no harm in doing so. Really curious about the mechanics of it all.

Shouldnt say dont ever, obviously after a couple weeks the wicks need changing i meant in regard to flavor change.. Im not going to change my wick 5-6 times a day after every 5ml lmfao but then again i vape enough to vape old flavor out quick enough

Could do the same - just leave wick and swap bottles with complementary flavors then.

See the bottle? You unscrew it - leave the tube and cap there, and screw on another bottle that's got a different flavor in it. Keep a few bottles ready to go...

Yep - there's both.
I'm a 1-battery mech kinda vaper, but there are DNA squonkers, etc.
Only reg I have is the 80 watt Wraith. But the HCigar 75 watt Inbox looks nice, or Lost Vape makes a 75 watt Therion and a DNA200 Halcyon - for that, you're up near $200.

Totally unrelated but since your here;

I always want spares and do you know how to get your hands on more insulators from Gus?
He doesn't sell them on the website without buying a whole switch. Thanks
No idea. Good question though. I have lots of fuses, but no spare insulators!

I'm done with GP as my 2 GP mechs will outlive me. Same with my 5 GUS mods. :) Love all of them and my Coppervapes and REO are at the same level.

REO are great, but pricy and spare parts also cost a fortune.
Reo spare parts don't really cost all that much?

$5-6 each for a $0.20 bottle, a spring and a button cover and $25 for a replacement door isn't expensive?
No it isn't. Go ahead and buy the 5 pack of FIB clone bottles from fasttech. Let me know how that works out. 5 pack $3.88. Then show me the same actual bottle cheaper. $6 is a deal.

Maybe you can mill your own doors? Lathe your own button covers? Source your own collapsible hot spring rated for sub-ohm? Fabricate your own positive contact? No?

For an American handmade product his prices on spare parts are really cheap and crazy reasonable. Telling people otherwise is irresponsible.

Irresponsible? That's funny.

I think REO parts are expensive and I have every right to that opinion. I have a REO and lots of parts and love it. Worth it? Sure. Expensive? Yup.

Compared to my Coppervapes The mods and spare parts are expensive. Don't care where they are made as that has nothing to do with my thoughts on pricing.

If you want to keep going in circles arguing against a valid opinion, knock yourself out.

you know you could go cheap and get one of the dripboxes to try it out, before you get something really nice like the REO's... besides there are regulated and mech squonkers... i since i made the rule in my house of no full mechs lol, dripbox 60w with some safeties, with a vaperesso transformer rda is as close as i want to get and mine are pretty, since i painted them. just a thought, and i love my regulated 160w(with the transformer on top there on all of them, i have 4 of the rdas) as well for the TC with my SS316l wire. yes i know nothing is as pretty as the more expensive ones, but you don't know if you're like it

Some of yours ^^^ are so beautiful.
Thank you.

That's the home team.

The ones I reach for most often when I'm home.

I have mods anywhere from $20 to the $900 complete setup you see on the far right.

I Vape almost every one of them.

Some more than others obviously.

I think this is the rest of my squonker collection.

Hi. I hope you don't mind me asking; what is the reason for no fully mechanical mods in your house?
Thanks

while my hubby is a master mechanic and electronics specialist, he refuses to learn more than how to replace a factory coil or which way the battery goes in...
I can respect that.

Nobody wants to bring work home with them.

Lol. I suppose when you've done it all day you just can't be bothered when the day is done.
Fair enough
Thanks.
