My black-framed White & Black snake skin stays at home with me, so I don't destroy it in my purse (I got a translucent skin as added insurance just in case I need to take it with me :thumb:). It's just too damned pretty to mess up and I'm an accident going somewhere to happen. My silver framed Bush Viper won't be here for at least a couple of weeks.

The Therions are the only high-wattage 2-battery mods that I own (the other DNAs that I have are 40w and 75w) and I'm not interesting in buying any others. I'm a pocket/purse-friendly vaper, so my mini mods are what I grab daily (w/ silicone sleeves, of course :eek:) and the most wattage those are capable of range from 40w-75w. I like single coils to save on juice and power consumption (MTL & DTL, I have no preference). I was never interested in anything larger than a single 18650 mod, so I've got a ton of Picos in my arsenal and am awaiting a couple of AL85s for my 25mm tanks.

If I were to buy another Therion, I may get the squonker, because I've never tried a BF mod before (haven't tried dripping yet either). Anyone currently have that one? Almost bought a Pico Squeeze, but I'm no good at Ohm's Law and need a regulated BF. In the meantime, I'm awaiting an atty that has the squonk function built in, so I can see if that's even something that I'd actually want to use. I just got in a Hadaly RDA to play with, so I'll find how I like dripping after 4+ years of vaping.

After reading that back to myself, I seem to be all over the place in my vaping style. :w00t:

A suggestion before sinking the money into a DNA squonker, get a Pico squeeze. It's cheap, the RDA isn't great, but it will give you a window into whether it's worthwhile. As for unregulated, just mount a 1 ohm coil and you're done. It has a bunch of protection circuits in it, so you're not totally in the mech world. You'll feel a lot better if you toss a $25 squonker in the back of the drawer because you didn't enjoy it, than tossing an expensive Therion squonker in there.

Thanks, @Eskie . I meant to reply to your post, but then got distracted...

So, all I really need is to build at least a 1 ohm coil (any particular gauge wire I should use?) and I'll be good to go? Sounds almost too simple. ;) I plan on using a single coil (Hadaly) rda as I bought it to play with and it comes with the BF pin, so I'm already prepared. Was considering the Squeeze w/o the atty and I can find them for about $18, so it may be worth a go. :thumbs:

Here's a nice mech guide I swiped from another poster in another thread, and should have remembered who to give proper credit.

As you can see, anything about 0.5 ohm will be good with a 20a battery in a single battery mod. Yes, you could build even lower, but why do it unless your vape style is lost of power and cloud?
