Coppervape BF Split RDTA came in last week, and I think I found the perfect atty for the windowless squonker conversion of iStick 100. For those who don't know, when you squonk the Split you are refilling the ~1.5 ml tank, so squonking is infrequent, about six times only for each full bottle of juice. Other functional benefits are being able to see when you are running low in the tank, and getting the consistent hit of an RDTA rather than the ups and downs of a typical BF RDA.

There are issues with the Split, most with the plug used for single coil. Shaving/grinding it down to fit better fixed that. The flavor is excellent single coil, mainly because of its small chamber. Have not tried dual coil yet.

Glad to see i'm not the only one that had that idea to make a sqounker out of an istick haha.I like your idea better though of not cutting a hole for bottle access.I cut mine,and it just doesn't look right.Mine was a quick fail though,i think i had a bad solder connection somewhere,and it was constantly auto firing,so quit using it,may look at it some day though.

Where have I Heard that Before?

;)
Iknow but cant keep this up its bankrupting me , once everything is in i will put a pic up ,but ive sold off a lot of ones i no longer use any more , which has allowed me to buy in new more useful things , as my Vaping style progresses , just to think about 3 -4moths ago i wouldn't of considered a sqounker or the bf atties , Was only into RTA,s now its all about the flavours since my mg% has dropped significantly from 1.2% 12mgs down to 6mgs then to
3mgs an now most is around 1.5mgs or just plain old flavoured with zero , So this allows you to enjoy them even more , I couldnt see me enjoying Sqounking at 12-24mgs , you would be high as a kite from that NIC and need an asbestos throat too,
But once that nicotine level drop flavours just pop a lot better, So ypu can choose better Atomisers designed for better flavours
but i do still find just the tiny amount of nicotine in the liquid sometimes can make certain flavours a lot better liquid , [emoji106]

    I was just Kinda Laughing when I read it because I have said the Same Thing Myself.

    "I'm Done." "Got 1.75 Lifetimes worth of Stuff." "Have a Backup for my Backup's Backup." "Nothing More that I Need!"

    Then I bought this Damn CV Squonker and everything Started Again.

    LOL

    Yeah, I saved the window question for last and decided the options weren't good. Tried it for a few days without a window, then got the Split RDTA in. Glad I didn't make the cut. It's by no means a beauty, but I'm surprised how happy I am with it, especially with the Split RDTA.

    BTW, I also tried and failed to convert an iStick 100 TC. Gave up on it. There just wasn't enough space inside the mod under the 510 to get a good result. Some of our stupid mod tricks work out great, some don't. ;)

    Yeah,definitely looks better without.on mine,i'm not positive if i had a bad solder joint or just a screwed up board,but after a while i sat it aside,now after seeing your's,i want to buy a new one to start from scratch haha.
    I got my son the istick 100w Tc a while back,and that was my first thought when it got here,was i wonder how hard this one would be haha.I decided to leave it alone since i got it for him haha.

    So I built dual vertical 24g kanthal coils @ 0.29ohms on the LE 86 and it is awesome. Better than my NarDA or Tsunami awesome.

    Might be that my build just turned out perfect, but this is a great BF tank IMO.

    Negatives? I hate slot/flathead screws/grubs and I will be replacing these with philips or hex ASAP. Also, the inside bottom of the atty isn't very nicely machined. Lastly, if you want to install horizontal coils, I strongly suggest winding them backwards/lefty. The outside posts are lower than the inside/positive post, so regular coils can be a bit of a PITA.

    Amazing for $8-ish though!
    Nice , i like mine , Le 86 yes I m not keen on flat screws either harder to get a good grip an tighten , , does your top cap go down past the base , my O rings seem a little loose once its juiced up too , but it Great otherwise

    You--and your son--lucked out on the 100 TC. :) Royal PITA to convert, and I wasted a lot of time because I'm arrogant and stubborn. :rolleyes:

    Unfortunately the older 100 is kinda hard to find now.

    So , it's just a matter of having some 28 - 30 mm toppers and needing a new mod to insure they will look presentable , i get it .

    SX MINI mods are pretty awesome , i would hate to hear about you living under an overpass & making a living pushing a shopping cart collecting cans and bottles for money thats all.

    Have you considered outright theft ? Never mind bad idea.

    25mm RDA bf , looks interesting . Never heard of before though
    ShenRay SR One Style RDA Silver 316 SS 25mm Atomizer w/ BF Pin

    Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk
    I've had this for months now and really like it. I use it all the time and works great on my dna200. I didn't like it as a bottom fed RDA though but that's mostly because I only own single battery unregulated squonkers. I'm sure it would be pretty decent on a high power tc squonker since it does squonk well and is very nice with the larger builds I usually run like nife52 Clapton's. Plus it overhangs on everything else.

    The AFC is a little weird as someone else pointed out. There are three slots and three small holes but you can't have just one opened, you can have 2 or 3. It does close down pretty tight though and is definitely designed for dual coils. I have tried a z coil which worked OK but I'm not a huge fan of z coils. I did find you can do a pretty good single coil build if you do the two open slots next to each other rather the opposite and then angle the coil so it's getting hit from underneath and the up the side of the coil. I pretty much only run duals in it but singles can be done and the air flow can go pretty much full spectrum

    The only thing I'm not a huge fan of is how small the deck is. The barrel and top cap make up a good bit of the size. Post to post in the sr1 is almost exactly the same as a 22mm velocity.

    That's kinda Bizarre. And not something I would want to find 1st Thing in the Mourning.

    I know you know. But for anyone else, the 510 Feed Pin in the Mod is the same as the BF Pin used in the CV RDA that comes in the Kit.
