The bue and black are anodised aluminium with naval brass nut. You'd like the blue I'm sure. The ultem one is more expensive but is a fair bit lighter. I wasn't too keen on the ultem at first but the photos have drawn me in.
. Nothing supposed to come til around 7, but getting mighty dark outside. Stay cool, stay safe.1 depends on your chosen wicking materialHiya folks.
Well knowing that i am getting the Pulse V2/Requiem RDA kit i have been doing some research so when it arrives i know how to put it all together to get started and also to do a proper review.
Keep in mind i never squonked and i barely used an RDA when i started vaping so i just got a coupld of quick questions:
-Sometimes when i am at my PC i just kinda forget to vape,maybe 30 minutes or more go by without remembering to vape.
I am probably really invested in some translating for a client or watching a movie,well anyway what happens with the RDA if it hasn't been used in a bit?
Does the cotton dry out and do i need to squeeze the bottle a couple of times before taking a hit or if it was well soaked in e-liquid before there is no need?
-About the squonking itself,i know that with continuous use knowing when to squeeze will become second nature but for a a first timer i am not sure about something.
Lets say you can get 5 decent hits out of your bottle squeezing before it overflows,what happens with the 6th hit if you forgot to squeeze?
Do you get a slight aftertaste that lets you know that you need to squeeze the bottle or does the cotton go from saturated to full burn in just that 1 hit?
Going to be a pain to get my cotton burnt if i don't get any ''signals'' that i need to squeeze that e-liquid bottle.
With tanks it never was a problem,i just looked and if it seemed low i just refilled it,easy peasy.
Well anyway thanks in advance folks,hope everyone is doing ok,you know healthy and keeping safe.
P.S: GF got ...... today,wanted to go out tonight and i really can't,pops under the weather so i gotta stay home on a Saturday night...seriously considering going MGTOW.
Not the radical version,just the ''no dating,i don't want the hassle and i am good going solo'' version
Hey shinies, happy Thursday! I have some more actual shiny news to share today. I had a quick look around for a Brunhilde and found one on Element Vape for a not too discounted price. It's the last day of their tank sale though, so it kind of felt like fate. I got a nice little discount and my Brunhilde is now on it's way.
I went with a black 25mm version since it fits my vape style better than the 23mm MTL. I fondly remember the days of the genesis tanks and my Z-Atty Pro with the rolled stainless steel mesh wick sitting atop my Provari and loaded with Mad Murdock's Radiator Pluid or Alien Visions Boba's Bounty. Ah, memories...
That was a different time, for sure. I'm looking forward to checking out the wicking action of those steel cables in the Brunhilde. If all goes as I expect it will, I'll be singing opera to it in my best Elmer Fudd voice
You just my day
She is rather "roomy"
Everyone on the Shiny Thread will have a Brunhilde in No Time
The Big Girl doesn't mind an extra couple of more coils popped in as well
Looks like she's almost as tall as a few of my most compact mech tubes. Should make for some interesting combos.
All Depends.
Different RDA's will give you more, or less, hits. Depends how deep the juice well is. A couple good examples are my VA Apex and Atmizoo Creek's, I can get a good 20 hits on either one before needing to squonk, if I choose.
The "signal" = a weaker hit. Then squonk to refill your RDA's juice well.
It's just a matter of time Mate.

I haven't tried the pulse2 kit yet (just came) But when you get your build on there just kind of see how much squeeze you need to get the wick nice and juiced with the cap off. You will know when you need another squeeze when it starts tasting a bit dry. If I squeezed pico squeeze as hard as my luna, it would be a mess, don't know about the pulse yet, but i'm thinking it's more like the luna or my stentorian, might take a plain old squonk bottle. I like the sucking sound of the juice going back down, then i know i'm good.Hiya folks.

All Depends.
If you vaped it to where there is nearly no juice on your wick you will get a noticeably weaker hit. Whenever you notice your hit is weak it is time to squonk. If you continue vaping you will eventually get a dry hit.
Best thing you could do with your RDA is to squonk with the top cap off and be aware of how much pressure is needed when you squonk to saturate your wick. Watching this in action gives you a good idea how hard to squonk. Different squonkers have different bottles, some are really soft and don't require much pressure and some are harder silicone requiring more pressure. It's a total 'feel' thing.
I usually squonk after every hit, that way my wicks never run dry.
Different RDA's will give you more, or less, hits. Depends how deep the juice well is. A couple good examples are my VA Apex and Atmizoo Creek's, I can get a good 20 hits on either one before needing to squonk, if I choose.
Again, when your wick starts to run dry you will get a very noticeable weaker hit. If you lightly squonk after every hit you won't run dry and will not get a dry hit.
The "signal" = a weaker hit. Then squonk to refill your RDA's juice well.
Another thing you could do... setup your RDA with the blind pin for dripping. Vape it to see about how many hits you get before you notice a weaker hit. Then you will know for absolute certain what you will experience when you have it setup for squonking.
Make sense???
I am running 3 squonker's. I honestly cannot remember the last time I had a dry hit. It's been a very long time.
