VaporFlask Squonker!

[RickCain]

Glad I didn't order mine after seeing the 510 setup. I can't imagine the issues users will have.

The chance of juice getting on the screen is now the least of my concerns with it

Lol yeah, juice on the screen never even crossed my mind really. It's the other issues that make it look like it'll be a real pain to clean and maintain. That and trying to get the bottle out.

Quick video I made for the "Squonkers" group on Facebook. Some people with the flask say they can squonk with their thumb without shifting it around, but I don't find it comfortable.

^^^ are you able to see just where they attached the positive wire on the 510?

Not without taking it apart.

Looks to be a Fat Daddy 510 so would rely on the removable pin to make contact with the fixed part of the positive connection. With the washer between the 510 I can't see it making a very reliable connection.

I don't know what kind of magic they are using, but it works fine for the dna40 chip. I know they beta tested it for quit awhile to get all the bugs out.

I soldered mine to the tube, couldn't see how it could be any other way except for on that little cap that holds it together.

Maybe I'm being devils advocate here but I'm not impressed with the 510 design over the long haul. Could be wrong but just don't see it being reliable Connection issues, leaking issues, lots of potential problems.

 

[Kentastic]

Well I'm enjoying it right now. If people start to have major issues with it with erratic power connections and leaking all over the place I'm sure there will be complaints. I'm not positive they are using the fatdaddy BF system wholesale. The pin looks like it, but the rest does not. Do you know if they use a standard fatdaddy 510s in the regular flask?

I got mine in today and I think it's a winner. All I need to do is find a better bottle...I think the Vapeage 9ml bottles will work better but a removal string will need to be attached. All in all, I love it!

Removal string?? Is it difficult to remove the bottle? What issues do you see with the stock bottle?

too small and a little too hard to push....The stock bottle works and is easy to get out but I want to put a bigger bottle in it. That will be harder to get out but easier to squonk. It's a great device but it could be better.

That is what rev2 is for

Don't be surprised to see a revision in the next month or so as that is their track record, IMHO.

Mine arrived today....waiting for another cyclone to arrive before I rig it up.

(sent from an alien device which translates English into Klingon without my approval)

So I pretty much love it....no burnt hits when I forget to squonk...no leaks. The oring on the 510 seals well, nothing gets out. Bottle is about the same size as my Reo Grand bottle. I can operate left or right handed and the bottle is fully accessible. Right hand? squonk with thumb, fire with fore finger (although the curve is in the wrong direction ergonomically) Left hand ( this is what I do most of the time) squonk with fore, middle or ring finger...fire with thumb.

No glitches...no problems. Although I may look at a different topper since the real estate for 2.5 ID coils is a little sparse with the Cyclone.

If I were to be nit picky, attaching the tube to the 510 metal tube can be tricky because it is dark in there. But all of the advantages outweigh a minor inconvenience IMO. Once you have done it a few times, you don't need to look because you can feel the tension when you press the bottle in.

And now I am giggling at myself because I can still get the ergonomics in the right hand if I flip it...hahaha...oops

Mine was delivered yesterday. So far so good. I was really concerned about refilling the bottle but it really very simple. Great vape with kanthal - nickle in the mail and should arrive today. Looking forward to my first nickel build.....NOT!!!

I'm just going to come out and say it....I'm tired of it and I think it's lousy. I loved the idea of it and I tried really hard to make it work for me. But, I give up. For squonking, I'll stick to my REO's and SIB boxes.

 

[jrs99]

Give the Sunbox E7 or the new E8 a shot. I took the cash I got from selling my Squonk and snagged the E7 that was in the classies and am loving it so far.
I still love my regular Flask but I'm glad I passed on the Squonk.

 

[Asbestos4004]

I've been looking for an E7. They look really nice.....one will turn up at some point!
