Hey Tom. Have you been using your prototype cam-m for a few weeks now? Could you tell us about any routine maintenance you would suggest? Do contacts need to be maintained a certain way? Speaking of, can you show us or describe the switch mechanism. Also, since the mod opens from the bottom what's the procedure for filling the bottle, does the whole thing tube and all get pulled out? Any tools required for accessing the batts and juice bottle?

Got the Atty3 in today. It is very well made and easy to build on. I have it at .3 ohms in dual coil setup. The thing vapes great. Flavor is pretty good and clouds are great. I am running the bottom air slots wide open and the top ones shut off. I don't like a tight draw, but I closed it down to pin holes and unlike the Hellboy, you can get an extremely tight draw on this one. This is a great little atomizer. I'm thrilled with this one.


Thanks for info. Hope mine will be here soon. Yours looks real sharp against that lime green!

Back to batteries.... Ordered 4 vtcs5 (max would let me order as limited stock) and another 2 samsung 25r's but the new green sleeves. All this battery talk did lead me to finally trying out some new LG HE4's I bought a few weeks ago. Gotta say these LG's kick ...!!!!! If your about to do a battery run highly recommended you try these, dropped a freshly charged LG and Samsung into the Reo and have to say the HE felt like it was hitting harder, harder than any of my sonys, samsungs or efest. Can't believe I didn't try sooner, just picked up another 10 batteries this week, 4 sonys 6 samsung now wished 2-4 of this 10 had been the HE4's.

Be interested to know of anyone else uses and how you found them, if not defo worth a try

I have 3 of the HE4's and 2 of the HE2's, both perform very well, easily as good as AW's, Sony or Samsung's batteries. The LG's are better than the Purple EFEST 2500 & 3100, which I use and like. I avoid MKNE, Trustfire & Ultrafire at all costs.

BTW, it's been so hot, my Teflon DTs are as hard as my Derlin DTs.

Hell no brother I couldn't deal with the same weather year round...I love seasons. I'm in the Adirondack mountains close to Canada :)

Slick...sloth...I have a good friend who lives between Canton-Potsdam.....have deer hunted in the Adirondacks many many times...:)

Now I'm a sloth too...no hunting, I enjoy seeing wildlife..like Javelina's, Bobcats, Rattlesnakes, Scorpions (which sting like a black bears bite).....:w00t:

Vape on brother....!

VaporShark is now selling the Vapor Flask Squonk DNA 40. And they want $110 more than for a preorder of their rebranded Vapor Flask by VaporShark (non-squonk). Really?

Waiting patiently for my CAM-M.:smokie:

I'm reasonably sure VS can slash the price on the non-squonk Flask because they probably licensed the name and form factor and are likely having them made in China. The Squonk must still be OEM VF, just peddled on VS's site.

Yep...bought four LG batteries a few weeks ago, no problems, last as long as 25R's.

Sounds reasonable. But with the small screen and no Zip charging, the squonker is looking like a pretty poor deal in it's current form. Hopefully they'll update it when the current stock runs out.

Patiently waiting for my CAM-M and my Tmod mech.

yes...and since I was eager to get a TC squonk box I bought one. (Not from Vapor Shark) Interestingly Vapor Flask applies a nice thick coating of aluminum oxide via anodizing to the battery cap threads. I'm not sure how they felt that would help the already problematic contact resistance of aluminum but it's still taking a lot of careful scrapping and swearing to get consistent function.

I feel your pain. The first ship-on-demand TC squonker that flips my switches is an instant buy.

Anodized threads in a device which uses them as part of the circuit is a bonehead move to be sure. Wow.
