Official Squape R[eloaded] thread!

Nic, pg/vg ratio, build and coil placement, atty in general, power, etc...all make a difference in throat hit. You would need to try that same juice in 12 to see if it's only the Nic percentage.

Damn, your fast I've just never noticed a hit or actually lack of a hit like that before. The thing is, it's on the same build I had in before - all I did was rewick, so my build didn't change so I'm thinking my build isn't playing in to it that much.

But I get what you're saying and I know your right. All that plays into it. The thing is, with the way I build, virtually all the different juices I try and I try a lot, have always given me about the same throat hit. So that's why this really threw me.

But you know, I do have one juice I really like but it has no throat hit and It's 12mg- it's Unicorn Milk. I don't vape it much because of that. That's why I asked though, wondering if anyone else had dropped their nic and noticed a substantial drop in TH.

When it's time to refill my SqR with POET in 6mg, I guess I'll start getting my answer.

hi guys.. had the SqR for a while now.. I notice I always gets gurgling and leaks nearing empty of the tank, like 20% left of juice.. is it normal?

 

[javyn]

Hey all, I recently got a SquapeR. I'm curious, what is the optimum build for a mechanical mod? Is this like the Kayfuns and Herons, meant to be built around 1.0 ohm, or is it more like the Aqua and Flash where you can subohm on them?

Thanks!

When I build or for mech, I like it at 0.08, gives me a really nice vape throughout the discharge and dropping voltage

Thanks I'm going to assume you meant 0.8 ohm, and that this is comparable with a Kayfun so I can build 1.0 on it for mech use with no problems.

Oops, yes I did, all the TC going on lately has my muscle memory all screwed up, lol

Hi Chia - it's not normal for me. I'm currently using my mini version right now and I blow thru a tank a day and I can seem to vape it dry with no leaking.

I hate to be one of those people that say I've never had it leak on me because I know that's not much help, but I've never had this thing leak on me. But I always use lots of cotton shaped like a bowtie in this tank and I think that may be part of the reason I never have any leaks. This wicking method really works for me.

On the first or second page of this thread, the member who first mentioned this method posted some photos that I found very helpful. How are you wicking?

My next thought would be o-rings maybe. Hopefully someone will chime in soon that's had a similar issue as you with a resolution.

 

[chrisz]

Back to that o ring question. Did anyone figure out what sizes they are? Tank cracker type juices are apparently hard on o rings also. I've just about used up my backups. You'll know if o rings are the problem. At least for me, when its time to change them I can barely get the sqr open.

 

[chrisz]

Mine also get a little funny with the weather changes. Have to adjust the amount of cotton til you get it right.

 

[Rikk]

I don't know the actual size of the o-rings but you can buy authentic replacements from VapeRev and Vapinart and probably others. A little more expensive but not bad.

Phone Guy was asking the sizes too so maybe he figured it out and will chime in.

 

[Phone Guy]

Sorry to say NO I didn't even try anymore. I've been struggling with temp control and chasing the vape I had with kanthal, now trying to use nickel or titanium. Without success I might add.

Just today I received an sx mini s class (no TC) and used a kanthal build to play with the mod, and the heat and flavor from kanthal is far superior to what I'm getting with any TC build I've done.
I can't even express how disappointed I am... It's obviously something I'm doing, a problem with my attys or something. So many people couldn't have possibly gone from what I get out of kanthal to what I'm getting from TC builds and liked it that much. No way.

Enjoy your vape man! There are way to many variables that can cause the whole thing to go to **** real quick. And the most frustrating part is not knowing exactly what that variable is because everything looks perfect.

Question though - are you having issues with resistance or refinement or unstable builds or are you just not satisfied with the vape?

I don't think it's refinement. That's when the vape is hot at 1pm and not the same at 6pm right? Its not that.

The wire isn't the issue, it's softer than I expected and when I wick I'm using less cotton than I used to with kanthal, so I'm either using the right amount now and used too much before? Not sure there, but wicking is challenging but do-able. Maybe I'm not wicking? Maybe that's why the vape is cold? The wicks are too dry? Hmm....

I'm getting lots of vapor, but it's cool (cold almost) when I up the temp setting I either get a burn wire flavor or still not enough heat (I've experienced both). Never can get that warm to hot vape like kanthal delivers.

Today I used a dual coil fogger v4, it's a 1ohm (0.98) kanthal, hitting it 20-25 watts is way warmer than my TC build have been. At 30w on the dual coil kanthal fogger, the vape is down right hot. (this was on the sx mini)

All I want is to get what I had with kanthal using ni200 or Ti and TC. At 1.5ohm kanthal 15w to 20w was pretty much where I vape regularly. If you build that, vape it, and can tell me how to replicate that warmth and flavor on TC, I'll be happy.

Maybe I should send an atty to someone to build and see if they get the same results. That would identify or at least eliminate 1 piece (the atty).

My dna40 chips should be here Friday, latest and greatest direct from Evolv via mikepetro and the coop. I'm upgrading my mods (except my wae2) so after that I can pretty much isolate it down to me not doing something right.

Hey thanx for the tip.. I tend to wick on the thin side, as I get dry hits if I stuff too much cotton.. Do you think the PG/VG mix have a part to play? My current juice is kind of runny.. I think it is higher PG..

Yeah, thicker (more VG) and thinner (more PG) definitely plays a part in wicking

Havn't checked in for a while boys how we all going? Anyone got the Rs yet? New build tips for the B?

Sorry for the DP but definitely. In my experience VG wicks less efficiently and for those on TC this means higher temps after your prime has been vaped, out of TC I assume this means more dry hits (which one's actually a better coil cooling agent I do not know, so for non squape dripping it might be a different story)

On the B deck with a light and fluffed cotton wick and 80VG I can hold 30W stable all day with TC at 450f, this is with basic knowledge and a bunch of help from everyone in this thread, but I think that may be the point of where returns start to diminish in terms of patience and dedication, I can't see 40W maxVG chaining on the cards... someone do it!

Look what I found...GrimmGreen tweeted about his blog and in the pic I noticed something..

Is that what I think it is on the left

Edit: why yes, YES IT IS!!!



First impressions start around 31 minutes in, and its a few minutes after that, I was casting it to the TV so I didn't see the exact time.
