View attachment 848557 I like my Hugo squeeze mech Squonker it works nice hits hard and fast and takes 21700s perfectly but the dam thing is leaking around the seals of the metal where the juice goes up. It has to be I super glued the bottle itself around the seal but not up where it unscrews obviously. Even did a bit on the top seal but still I come home from work and look at it after it’s been sitting at home all day only to discover a pool of juice inside the mod and looks like it’s dripping down onto the metal part of the juice bottle.

I knew this thing was cheap but my god it’s just so crappy how much juice comes out Of it inside the mod. I’m gonna try more superglue tomorrow in a different spot. Shouldn’t be this way I heard lots of great things about it . Only had it for a few weeks now too :(
Try some silicone, it might seal better. Just let it cure up before you use it for a few days.

That’s what was going to say. I really doubt that one tiny drop of super glue would be a danger, seeing where it is, but it’s not a sealant.


Anyway, morning all.

I saw this RDA on fasttech and am thinking of adding it to my order. I would be using it exclusively for squonking. Anyone here used this, if so what's your opinion on it?

$5.39 SXK Artoo R2 Styled RDA Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer - 316 stainless steel / 22mm diameter / w/ BF pin at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
I nearly bought one but decided not to to. I've found in the past that the little squat RDAs are sometimes problematic on the juice/liquid in the mouth front..... Think gas mods gr1 territory.

Hopefully a user can chip in. One things is virtually certain though.. The flavour will be very good. :)

Have you tried getting an oring in there somewhere?

Good morning shinies :wub:

Going home today.... Back in for my last treatment tomorrow. They reduced the strength on some things because of my recent chest infection and anaemia so I'm hoping the symptoms will pass more quickly.

@Rob B. Always sense of humour although I may be in a backfire situation with this one. I clicked post reply and then I thought hmmh thin ice Charlie.... Thin ice:facepalm:

There’s a scene in one of the episodes of Poirot where I think it was Captain Hastings who said he understood how women tick.

Poirot replies, very dead pan, “Ah yes, the ticking of the women.”

And I will forever be a David Suchet fan for that award worthy delivery.

Try aquarium glue instead. Or a thin oring.

Thanks I didn’t think it was a problem there either. I didn’t really appreciate being told my IQ was probably too low to measure for doing so. I figure if I can’t get this thing to stop working after a couple tips from you guys ill just forget it. Try something another. Maybe get a regulated Squonk like the topside soon. I just like the simplicity of mech mods.

I really can't see where the leak is coming from. Is it from the tubing connected to the 510 squonk part? Is the bottle tubing loose? Is the top of the 510 dry? Is it coming down from the atty? Where did you superglue it?

Super glue itself once dry in nontoxic. You can even use it to close cuts (preferably the one made for cuts from the pharmacy, but even plain crazy glue can work in a pinch). But it's not the best sealant for leaks.

I guess I love life on the edge sealing my Squonk bottle with glue.
There is an ignore user button on the site, you just click on the profile picture, hit ignore and all those posts dissapear. I've done it for a few users who rant and go on or share TMI...

As far a glue, JB Weld is totally non toxic when cured, I've repaired the leaky 510 juice tube on my Lost Vape Drone with it and things on other mods.
