Squonking reconsidered
Dripping on a Velocity RDA again tonight. Still love the flavor and clouds it can produce. Amazed by the precision machining tolerances on the air flow components. While staring at the design of this atty, I can’t help but wonder if there may be some value to the BF center post Avid Vaper is selling (mine won’t arrive until Fri or Sat).
Clearly, it won’t siphon juice back into the bottle until there’s so much juice in the well that it won’t matter. But I vape a lot of NETs. They quickly gunk up my coils and wicks, and the juice in the well gets “seasoned” by this gunk as well. With a proper squonking atty, that means my juice bottle ends up getting “seasoned”, which really isn’t a plus in my book. Perhaps the Velocity BF “snorkel” center post has some benefit in this case. You can feed the very deep juice well, and nothing will end up getting siphoned back into your bottle. Vape it ’til it’s gone, and then feed in more fresh juice. When the coil gets gunky, dry burn/rewick/repeat. Could be a little tricky to manage for a squonk newb like me, but I’m willing to give it a try.
I still plan to send Tom a Velocity next week to do a proper BF mod. I also vape unflavored
eliquid during the day, and really want a righteous hot rod squonk atty for that. But I think I’ll play around with the snorkel center post for a bit to see if it has any value.
