When using Atty's how often should you squeeze the bottle. I understand the way you vape it with an atty is you press the bottle until you see the liquid in the catch cup, take a quick dry hit and the vape.....Correct? But how often should you squeeze....every time you hit it or every other time....Any suggestions...I don't wanna flood the atty.

I forgot about the 510 atty but with a 306 I just squeeze the bottle and suck at the same time until I feel the juice is in the atty. With a 306 I get anywhere between 5-10 hits and then squeeze again. Really just try it out after an hour you will know exactly how many hits. Glad you are trying your luck with attys buddy!!

The quantity of vapes per squonk varies greatly by a lot of different factors. The 306 uses more juice per fire. The LR attys as a whole burn hotter and use more juice. The way you vape will make a difference, a longer vape uses more juice. The suction during the vape can also effect use of juice.
So, with that being said, I will say it is totally up to your vaping style and atty.
I will also say this. I have found that the best, most flavorable vape seems to come right before the burned taste. That wonderful vape makes me want to hit again, and then Yuck!!! Time to squonk!
The blind squonking works best for me, draw while squeezing, when you feel resistance and here the gurgle stop squonking!

Definitely varies.... with a 1.5ohm 306 (I take huge pulls) I get 3-4 nice vapes before I have to squonk...

If I can see what Im doing, I love the regular squonk technique (press bottle til holes around catch cup start to show liquid)...

otherwise, I do the blind squonk (pull on the mouthpiece, press bottle until I can feel a slight gurgle)

Either one works for me

I guess I'll start by watching the catch cup and see how it goes....so squeeze just until the juice appears or let it fill a little?

I recommend counting your drags....start off with 4 or 5 drags...then a small squeeze....then 5 more drags...and a small squeeze. Just to get the feel of it.

I you squonk take a hit....then set it down does the atty drain.....if it sits for a while after tanking just one hit should you squonk again?

You really should vape it almost dry, 5 hits or so, after you squonk and before you sit it down. If a 510 atty is full when you set it aside, it will drain into your catch cup, and you could get juice all over you. 306's stay a bit drier.

You should also suck up any juice in the catch cup with a short hard unfired hit when you pick it up again.
