I've always wanted to give bottom fed devices/atomizers a try. I've been very happy with my 3 current RTAs and 1 rda, that I haven't felt the need to purchase anything in the past 5 months.

I think I might treat myself in the future if I can find a reason for it lol. A lot of members seem to love it.

It's the best of both worlds, a dripper, and an on board juice supply. Since I started sqonking, my drippers pretty much sit there, for tasting and the occasional treat flavor at night while watching the tube. Day in day out use, the bottom feeder wins for convenience with the same great taste as dripping.

There's no more reliable, compact travel friendly device than a good mechanical bottom-feeder. Just pictures I had on my phone.

Na, I'm like you, when I find what I like, I stick with it. For 2 years, been on mech sticks and happy. I can see the upsides of squonking but don't like the box shape.
No need for the box shape,or a new mod.They got the tube crowd covered too.It's an all in 1 sqounk atty called a fountain v2.

Ordered my First Squonk Mod - Cheap little 60w regulated device with TC. Added a Velocity with bottom feed pin to complete. Hopefully it will be in hand in a few weeks.

Will I give up my tanks.............No, I'm just to much into playing with whatever I can get my hands on. Vaping, for me, is a way to enjoy not Smoking. The hobby aspect keeps me busy and expands my knowledge so I can assist others where possible.

Still, I like the Idea of 10ml capacity, RDA Vape quality and minimal real-estate loss.

:D
I think you'll be happy with it.A 60 watt version is in my near future,but so far my highest are 40 watt.The sqounking bug bit me hard haha.I started out with the smokeless owl mech,liked it,so i got a kui mech,then decided i wanted a vw sqounker,so i ended up with 2 vaporflask sqounkers and another that i built,plus a ton of different rda's because i felt i needed to try them all haha.

Possibly a design idea for makers or manufactures then, create a tube based squonking kit. I think it could feasibly be done. Shoot there's 3D printing now that can replicate certain foods, in whole or part. You can 3D print guns as well. Should not be difficult to apply similar toward creating a tube for squonking.

I would think it needs to go:

Atty
Bottle
Battery

The reason being the wiring can more readily serpentine up around the outer, insides of a tube. Sorry that's kind of odd to read or convey. The wire could pass around the bottle though. Not sure you pass a feed tube around wire too well. Though I'm sure the wire could be coiled inside the tube. You'd wind up with a squishy corkscrew effect. :)
There is actually an RTA with a built in "squonker" that would work on any tube mod :)

Edit: looks like someone beat me to it :D

Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet

You know folk think squonking costs loadsa money to try - if you look front left of this pic you'll see a squonking box made out of ballistic plastic which comes with an attie (rear right by the window on the Kanger Box being used as a dripper temporarily), two pre wicked coils, tools, O rings and a spare bottle for under £20.00 - Google it under the headings "Terminator/Smokeless Owl"and see what comes up!

BTW I have a Tmods Custom Box with a Origen 16 to top it ( back left), and have a custom wooden squonking box mod on route to me from a specialist Contintental Builder which I will top with a BF Delaniemods attie waiting for duty....but in terms of bang per buck, you simply cannot ignore the El Cheapo option - which at the end of the day offers a damn good vape!

Yep

Picked up that geyscano @ kidney puncher for $20 shipped during the holidays.

And there's 2 waidea REO Grand clones in that pic I got for $30 ea.

For someone on the fence and/or worried about cost, I'd highly recommend the waidea.

I wouldn't expect it to be a precision machined piece of artwork. But it'll certainly get the job done and take a beating.
