25.00 Squonker Came Today--pics--happy

[thetrucker]

Hi Fellow Vapers,

My 25.00 Smokless Owl from FOCALCIGS--came today and I could not be happier.

Got free coil winding mandrel thingy as a free gift.

Gaaaaah...why are there so many awesome toys that I must have!?!?!?

 

[DanJiblets]

I learned something new today. I'm assuming this is an easy way to just fly through juice lol.

Looks like 25.00 well spent. How do I tell my wife that i need to spend more money on vape gear?? Hmmmm

I'm with thetrucker on enjoyment of this setup.

It's quite easy to drill a hole at the base of the Owl's center post for that iconic squonking sound when the excess juice is pulled back into the bottle.

• Remove 510 pin
• Pull center t-post upward while twisting back and forth with needle nose pliers
• Screw 510 pin back into center post just to be sure it doesn't get malformed
  
• Clamp the post to your work surface I used a small c-clamp and a scrap 2x4
• Drill small hole through the post just above the ledge which stops the pin from pressing on down through the atty. I barely touched the pin with a dremel cutoff wheel to make a flat spot to avoid bit dancing. A small center punch or steady hand would work too.
• Reassemble and squonk on

However drilling the post isn't really necessary unless one is having leakage problems from overfilling the juice well.


I would venture to call the Smokeless Owl/Terminator kit the reigning 'bang for the buck' champion.

ENJOY

I am not "handy," I'm ok with the owl as is, just pointing out some of the possible "negatives" for anyone interested. I've been happily fogging up my living room with it since I got it.

Wow, cant beat that deal with a stick. Good lookin' setup you got there.

 

[WhiskeyTango]

How exactly do these squonkers work? Kinda interested in one now.

 

[r77r7r]

I like the simplicity of the insides.

 

[yuseffuhler]

How are you liking the atty on top?

 

[Lessifer]

Nice! Mine hit my local PO this morning, hoping to get it today, or tomorrow.

Ohhhh, I like that tool.

 

[WhiskeyTango]

Would I be correct in assuming these squonkers require special RDAs?

Yes, you need a bottom feed atomizer, this one comes with it. They have a hole in the center pin that the juice feeds up through.

Just got mine and got it built. The mod is pretty nice for the price. The atomizer is okay, though I'll probably looking for a smaller one with drain holes. Zenith v2.5 or the chalice III clone are probably in my immediate future.

I like the atty on this thing because you can see thru the glass and get an idea of what is going on inside of the atomizer--and

watch the eliquid enter the coil area---and it seems to give me a lot of vapor

w/o drain holes, you might try Blind Squonking.

 

[Lessifer]

Tell her you found a great sale, something that usually costs $200(mod and atomizer) for $25, that's how I justified mine

Also it should make vaping while driving safer, no more dripping and driving.

 

[r77r7r]

huh?
I've spent a lot of time looking at REOs, still on my wishlist. The RM2 and most other bf attys have a way for the liquid to drain back out. This is like a regular atty with a HUGE well, and you squonk to fill the well, the juice comes out of the center pin wire post holes.

Oops, edited post for Drain Holes.

 

[thetrucker]

I used the same excuse that 25.00 dollars is better than 200.00 for a REOS.

I noticed that there is no drain holes and juice comes out the screw holes---but figured that is a small price 2 pay for a 25.00

start to squonking. Just figured I would up grade the atomizer in the future with a Chalice Clone or something similar.
