It supports Ni only but here's a Ti build I did earlier tonight on the Thump. One of my favorite atty's running at 360F, 26awg, .12 @ 40 watts.

Thanks. Wow. Nickel only is a bit disappointing for anyone who wants to dual coil it. They're going to be stuck on 30 gauge functionally. On the upside I guess you can use to just turn the temp Down 50 Degrees or so but that's not exactly great in a game of sort of kind of (current temp control) already.
The device is user upgradable via released firmware updates isn't it ? Aren't they using yihi up front and their own chip behind that? Has anyone checked to see if there is a firmware upgrade ?
I built something like a 16 wrap single coil in the sod5k. It's working well. I have to say I'll
Probably end up using the sod5k as a dripper though and ordering a rio LP
This works fine for regulated and I don't really
Feel too much need to build temp control in a squonk box as its for home use only I tend to keep it relatively full inside.
Edit. Exclamation mark now. It doesn't like my build after working fine for half a ml?
So next steps

Things I don't like about the sod5k
The air hole denting on my face and the fact it has to be positioned right over the coil limits my ability to move it someone less irksome. The fact it doesn't suck the juice back down means I can't really travel with this on the top Of the mod. Flavor is good and the device is working fine with nickel. This was really a test unit to see if squonking was for me.
I figure I'm going to order the reomizer LP and see if I like that. If I do maybe order the reomizer mini v1 14500 or v2 18499/500 nil wishing to get dimensions from the reomizer site. But I'm open to suggestions.
Are there any other smaller squonk units than the steam crave that are regulated ? Or any other bfa atomizers you'd consider over the reo LP ? At least I did learn what the downside is to converting a regular dripper to bfa and right now for a dripper the one I just bought will replace the magma clone without issue so it's no biggie. It just isn't the right solution for a bfa to take with me. It would inevitably leak in my pocket.
So bearing in mind I'm fine with the function of the steam crave box and the flavor of the sod5k what more portable setup would you opt for ? What made for bf atomizer should I use for similar flavor to the sod5k without the issues of air flow?
I'm tempted to order a chalice now. I wonder how the flavor is compared to the gem. I don't want to buy four or five atomizers hair to ultimately buy the chalice anyway. End up spending twice as much.
I'm not in a hurry so I'm fine with some research before blowing another $200-300. I appreciate all of your help
@fishwater and others.
The steam crave box by default is pretty good for lung hitters who don't want to do temp control it seems. Or can deal with no proper titanium profile. It's a pretty good size even. Battery life is mediocre to poor in power mode. Flavor of the aromizer for a lung hitting atty is good imo.
The thump is good looking but not what I'm looking for. I really wonder if the chalice iii is really any better than the reo LP. I don't want fixed air flow at all. It just never is right for me.
Oh also I made a big mistake when I ordered. Maybe it wasn't listed at he time or maybe I missed it but I ended up ordering a stainless tank version which shipped from
China. What I wanted was a glass version that shipped from nyc. So it took over three weeks to arrive. So USA and Canada residents pay attention so you don't make My mistake! I assume shipping cost more too. Can the spare glass be used on the stainless tank. Or are there other parts that are needed ?
Finally I've had no response from steak
Crave one. Couple questions. Pretty poor support.
Thoughts on the steam crave box.

All In all it's an inexpensive decent mod. It still makes me chuckle it's serialized. It is higher quality than most clone stuff I've bought. It's lower quality than other authentics I've bought. Good primer for squonking I guess. More so if you're a lung hitter and can use the tank for an additional $10. Though its no longer working in temp mode. I need to check the low resistance cut off.
