Everyone that's tried these bottles has raved about them, but they're just a little plastic bottle. How can they be so great?
Not quite everyone. As of this evening, I'm aware of one person who's tried 'em and still prefers the old bottles he's used to. Thing is, he admits he's weird. :lol:

I just absolutely love these bottles. Squonking was never hard for me since my hands are strong and healthy but even still, my finger would cramp after a full day of heavy use if the weather's cold. Not anymore! These must be a serious blessing for those with arthritis. Who would've thought a simple plastic bottle would change the game so much.

It has even changed the vape quality itself. For me anyway and the reason. Is I often chain vape. It is now so Much faster to squonk and drain that chain vaping is much more like CHAIN vaping :thumb:

You said that right sloth [emoji4] I have severe arthritis and tho I have never let that stop me from squonking, my hands, especially the thumbs are very happy with these bottles. And I have not had one single leak out of the several that I have in active use. Will likely get some more from Rob when he gets them in. Need to have backup backups. Lol

I also need to figure out where to find some extra tubing that fits. Like to keep plenty of that on hand as well. [emoji6]

I play some guitar and have some heavy strings and high action on a favorite acoustic. I squonk my current bottles with my ring and pinky finger for exercise. I'll miss that with these new bottles but won't complain. Can't hardly wait for the P-67 and these squink bottles!

I found that I can squonk these bottles using my ring finger. I don't have to turn the REO and push with my thumb!

I am also having good luck with covering the air hole in my RM2 and suctioning the juice up by taking a draw. The vacuum, and the soft bottles lets it work. It does require harder drawing, but not a problem for me.

oh wow, that's interesting!

something that hasn't been mentioned with these bottles......since it's so much easier to squonk......do y'all think that there might be increased issue with auto-feeding when it's hot?

Glad you said that sloth, I was thinking it was just in my head, but I have been getting a more consistent vape too, and I chain vape a lot.

You will notice that after filling the bottle and initial few squonk and drain actions, that less air gets in the feed tube each time after releasing. With the softer tubing and leak proof cap it has a tighter seal creating a vaccum so more juice still in the tube with less air bubbles so more juice being fed with less air bubbles would lead to better chain vaping! :thumbs: Just my observation.

I think auto feed is strictly related to temperature, like a thermometer. But there's the potential of even more juice weeping out of the afc with the bigger bottle. I'm no scientist though.

I never thought to try this before.... I just tried it, it worked like a charm. :)

Sounds like fun!

I used to do that with a 510 joye atty with drip sheild on my reo grand.l way back when.

Cover the air holes on the drip shield with my finger and suck the juice up into the atty hehe

Actually the only air going back into the feed tube is the air coming in thru atty 510 feedhole upon drainage. I would imagine hi PG content, thus thinner juice would drain back faster and thus more air backwash, while heavy VG users would be much slower draining thus less air backwash. Okay I'll stop now getting too deep into thought here! :facepalm:

I just got some of these a few days ago... I think they're great, except when used with my Chalice 3 (boy, did I flood that thing :facepalm:).
I think it was posted earlier in this thread, but I recommend following the "set-up" instructions for blocking the tube & squeezing the bottle. I noticed some of mine had a little notch out of the threads, and weren't totally sealed. I unscrewed & screwed the caps on a few times and did the bottle squeeze, and it fixed 'em right up. Totally sealed now.
