that would put a green Profile on a Purple Squeeze. Yuk, Cat in the Hat territory there.
I have a purple and green mech squonker,it's one of my favorites haha.Has a purple body with a green door and button.I actually ordered it that way because i like the Joker from Batman and that's his colors haha.I even went as far as making a Joker battery wrap so when you take the door off,the color combo makes sense haha.

I still like RDTA's too and the Faris is my favorite with the Wasp Nano taking 2nd place. Haven't tried the Limitless but I've seen it on sale a lot so...
I have 2 Faris's and found out that you can still get those duckbill valves from the Wotofo site. They don't list them anymore so you have to use the "other" item (or similar. I forgot exactly what it's called) and manually tell them what you want. They used to be like $6 for a pack of 5. Charge yourself $5-6 and see how generous they're feeling that day.

Also, 2fvape has bottles with blunt tip needles and silicone caps that work great on the Faris and are easier on that valve than any of the larger diameter blunt hypodermic needles. And you can carry them without raising eyebrows or dealing with the separate caps and needles needed for a luer lock bottle.
They're like $5 or less shipped for a pack of 5 10ml or 3 30ml.

8 vapes has the Uwell juice bank on sale for $9.95. It's a stainless steel, glass lined bottle with a needle nose and a pump that dispenses 0.1ml at a time. That's less than half price and a solid piece of gear if you don't mind the 20-30 pumps it'll take to fill a typical RDTA. I'll find out soon enough I suppose.

I use a Faris in RDTA mode on a squonker now and then. It's good when I'm absent minded and forget to squonk enough. Kind of a safety factor. But honestly, I'm about to retire all my rda's but a few in favor of the Profile. Nothing even approaches it for flavor, no matter how exotic the build. Bums me out kinda'.

You can get little 30ml and 15ml PET fake unicorn squonk refill bottles with cheap aluminum 510 adapters and caps with 0-rings for about $2.50 shipped for a pack of 3 on ebay. I got a handful of those, the caps of which also fit common little 10ml bottles for a quick refill when traveling. So far they've held up well and if they don't, so what. They're cheap and unlikely to damage your 510 connection.

I like the Vapefly Galaxy RDTA, it is an easy build for me, set screw wire capture not wrap around screws. I also like the Entheon for the same reason, it clamps for the wire capture. I have a Nano that is good, set screws.

It's a Politician, it's a News Reporter, it's lips are moving............................you know it's lying. Last time I watched the news JFK was President, now it's full of BS or the Weather about 20 times in 30 minutes, the weather is not that interesting. I don't do Facebook, Instagram or '....ter' either because of BS!

Things were so much better when we just had 3 Channels on the TV and the Radio..............NOT....but they at least attempted to tell the News not today's BS!

OMG I sound like my Dad :cry:

Someone once said that the only thing worse than believing anything is not believing anything.

There's a movement in this country to wage war on objective truth. It's being fought by a certain segment of society who holds the view that everything is largely a matter of opinion, perspective and interpretation and that the uninformed opinion of one person is as valid as the opinion of an expert in their field (as long as the uninformed opinion aligns with their own). They have contempt for education, expertise and intellectualism in general. Back in the day, one of them coined the term "pointy-headed" to express their contempt.

Today, this movement is being led by an ironically and ostensibly educated individual who, along with a dedicated media outlet and an army of sycophants, opportunists and various hangers-on, continually uses alternate facts, nonstop lies, misinformation, disinformation and general gaslighting to denigrate expertise and science, spread confusion and discord, and to diminish the value of objective truth in favor of his own opinion based alternate reality.

And for the significant minority of the citizenry who are unwilling or who lack the skills to recognize their own confirmation biases and consume the news in a genuinely educated and critical fashion instead of just being intellectually lazy and cynical and dismissing everything as "fake news", this war on truth has been hugely successful. They confidently pit their "alternate facts" against established truths, oblivious to the damage they're doing to themselves and the nation.

The war on objective truth, along with its devaluation of expertise, is the most insidious force we've faced since WWII. Compromise is the bedrock foundation of any civil society but if a society cannot establish universally accepted arbiters of truth (as they did back in the day of 3 networks and Cronkite) and when a society is so mindlessly skeptical, cynical and disbelieving of everything, compromise vecomes impossible and the door is opened for the authoritarian to establish himself as the sole source of truth. If you think that's over the top, listen to the people who say that the only person they believe is DJT. Listen to DJT himself when he asserts himself as the only person you can believe.

This is the method employed by authoritarians throughout history and don't fool yourself, it CAN happen here. Is IS happening here, right under our noses.

    If my NFEteam.org knowledge is up to date, that wismec doesn't use a nuvonton chip, so no. The only Squonk I know that runs AF is the pico squeeze 2

    Thanks for that. The pico squeeze 2 is what I was referring to. It's not listed on the NFE site as a covered mod. I had guessed it was cuz of screen size so I'm glad to find out it works on he S2

    Ha... Yours sounds so much better than mine looks. Looks good in context.

    I love the art deco look to this squeeze2. The fire button and bottle door areas have that art deco curve look. I can imagine it in some striped pattern Bakelite in the hands of some old 20's or 30's movie star.

    Sorry. I didn't bring it up and I'll not say another word about it, but I cannot let this evil bs that "everyone is a liar" stand unchallenged.

    Back onto the New Squonkers front ^^^^^

    My tally of squonk mods is nearly at 3 ;) One Gloom clone in my hand, one purple Luna very very nearly here and one purple Squeeze 2 a month from being here :lol:
    STILLLLLLLL Waiting for my 2 Lunas. They finally found the white that had gone astray and the red mosaic looks to be on schedule and may beat it to my door, so YAY. You'll love your squeeze. I like mine enough that I've even gotten used to the purpleishness of it. :eek: For SM's price, I think I'll get a red one too. That'll make 11 squonkers. My lucky number.

    Here's my Luna - I hope yours isn't too far away. It's an amazing squonk mod, comfy to hold, fire and squonk, perfect squishiness of the bottle and looks awesome. I also love how it vapes, hits way harder than my Gloom clone :thumb:

    Just recently recieved some new bottles and a 21700 battery tube for my moddog pulsar. Since getting this mod it has taken the primary spot in my rotation. It just checks off all the requirements for me, especially now with the 21700 battery.

    It's about time for a good cleaning for it (especially apparent in this pic I just took of it).

    Curious to know what builds you are all running in your unregulated mods, versus what you run in a regulated mod and the wattage in regulated

    Unregulated: 316L 30*2/40 fused clapton, 5 wraps 2.5mm id @ 0.5 ohm spaced or
    316L 28ga 6 wraps 2.5mm id @ 0.65 ohm spaced

    Regulated: @ 23watts - 316L 28/40 clapton, 6 full wraps 2.5mm id @ 0.65 ohm spaced or
    @ 17watts316L 28ga 5 wraps 2.5mm id @ 0.45 ohm spaced

    Edited to add coil ids

    @AngeNZ, could you please tell us what ID your coils are and if they're contact or spaced? Thank you.

    And I think that the atomiser used really affects coil builds, due to airflow and chamber size.

    Great point - and I edited my post to include the coil id

    On my wismec, I am running a drop dead with dual coil, geekvape SS316L juggernaut wire, 5 wrap 2.5ID comes in @ 0.08ohm, this gets 200w preheat for 0.5 seconds, 160w after that, TC set to 420°F.

    My topside has a dead rabbit SQ, generic SS316L tiger wire, 5 wraps, 2.5ID, 0.33ohms, 54w, TC set to 420 also.

    My Godmod overlord clone has a rebirth RDA, geekvape staggered staple fused Clapton Ni80 4 wraps 3mm ID 0.19 Ohm's.

    My unregulated/mechs usually have little 22 mm attys on them and simple round 316L around 0.4 ohm coils are perfect for me. With say my Reload X built out with dual fused Claptons at around .24 ohm, that's on a regulated squonk at 55W, and an Axial with a single 3.5 mm fused Clapton at ~0.5 ohm and 45W.

    It comes down to the build for the atty and how to get sufficient power through it to get the vape you like. The small attys I have wouldn't be too happy with a bulky coil and the ramp up would take longer than I would prefer, so I limit my dual coil cloudy attys to regulated mods.
