Tootle Puffers, Part Three! (The Sequel of the Redux)

[Two_Bears]

Pico $25, rda $6, drip tip $1. Out and about it's wearing a silicone sleeve and tall slip ring which unblings it a bit and adds about $2 to the cost. Funny thing is there's nothing I'd rather be using regardless of price. So the less you spend on vaping the better it gets.

I think so.

Pico here a $5.43 Atty and wouldnt trade my kayfun in my avatar for authentic Kayfun V4, Mini V3, and Kayfun 5 combined

Y'all are making me want to go dig out all my rocks that I have stored in my brother's garage. I miss them.

I used to live a mile or two from a rock shop. I used to love to go there!

The most beautiful rock I ever saw was aquamarine. To look at it made me feel like it was touching my soul. It was incredible. I asked about the price. OMG! That chunk of rock would have cost thousands!

If I had had the money, it would have been mine. They were going to sell it off in small pieces. I wanted the whole thing!

I have a relatiobsip with Aquamarine too.

Right now i am wearuhgva rough AAA grade Aquamarine as a pendant as i type this.

My class ring bought back in 1972 had an Aquamarine in it

Here's mine

Is that a Royal Hunter mini?

Does one actually squeeze the bottle whilst squonking? Can any atty be used? I'm totally clueless on this method of vaping! Just curious for when I eventually try it!

 

[brewbear]

In a very simplistic way: The atomizer used has to have a BF pin so no, not every atty will work but many can be modified. The trend in vaping gear seems to be moving in the squonking corner!
You have a bottle holding your juice, the bottle is inside the mod. When you squeeze the bottle (gently) the juice travels up a tube, thru the 510 pin and into the atty. When you release the pressure on the bottle, the excess juice goes back in the bottle. Now you vape like any other dripper. Several puffs, squeeze bottle, release, vape! Repeat. The advantage is that you're using a dripper without dripping,

The bottle is squeezed (actually, just pressed with a finger) with enough force to push eliquid into the deck of an RDA through a tube connecting the bottle to a drilled out positive pin (both the mod and the atty have a hole in the pins). There, thr liquid will saturate the wick. The suction from the bottle's release will remove any excess liquid. The device can then be used as any other RDA until the vape gets weak or dry tasting. That's when the squonker squonks.

Well, I did it. One year...365 freakin days without a cigarette. Very few people can understand how miraculous that is for a guy that smoked for 45 years and had no hope of ever quitting. The people here can understand, though.

There have been very few days in the last 365 that I didn't come to ECF. I've learned so much about vaping here, and you folks make it so much more than just a get-healthy project. It's fun. Maybe that's the most miraculous thing of all. I did something I never thought I could do, and it turned out to be fun.

God bless you all for the help and encouragement you offer people who come here looking for support. Could I have done it without you? Don't know. But, I'm glad I didn't try.

Feels good to have rebuilt the new PT coil. Wrapping a tight wick around a vertical coil was the hardest part. Onto my icare coils!

 

[MikeADore]

Me too! Of course mine is just wicking material from one place, orings from another, a flashlight from another. Not too exciting.

What about you? Anything fun and exciting?

Already received a few goodies from stateside vendors with a few more on the way from China:

* Two Wismec Amor tanks from Totally Wicked in Florida;
* An Xtar VP4 charger from Amazon;
* Two eGo One VT kits from China ($11 each with eGo One Mega tanks included);
* A red Evic VTC Mini (75W) from China;
* A red Tron S tank from China; and
* A few odds n ends like coils, drip tips etc. from China.

All of that for about $150. Still got about a fourth of what I decided to spend for my vapeversary, and it will go for whatever tickles my fancy along the way. It has been a successful and self-indulgent celebration.

Thanks to all of you for your support and kind words about my milestone. Got my chest all puffed out and looking forward to another year.

That's great that you're treating yourself! You definitely deserve it![emoji4]

No mate, it's an el cheapo Pico squeeze (painted) with a SXK Shift atty on top

I got the Pico part of the picture, I have 2 of them, tho not as Purdy as yourn. The atty sure looks bigger in the picture than in real life. I stood there, looking at the Shift and wondering why the ones I have look so much smaller, then I realized it was a matter of perspective. I still find the draw on the Shift a bit too loose for my liking. The NoFear is more my speed....and the Cyclone, and the Chalice lll, and the Origen Little.

Beeeeeery nice!

I've been squonking too much today. I wasn't paying attention, picked up the Pico by mistake and tried to use the battery cap as the fire button. Then set there for a second trying to figure out why I had no vapor.

I often squeeze the bottle and wonder why the atty doesn't fire

I haven't done that yet. I've over squonked a few times today and couldn't figure out what was running over my hand, looked at it and realized it was juice coming out of the air holes. Oops!

 

[brewbear]

Almost as bad as squeezing, well trying to, a tank and wonder why the juice doesn't move.

 

[LynnNC]

Now that the Wanko is up and running, tomorrow I'm going to try the Hadaly and after that the NarDa. I'm going to try all 3 before I decide which atty will be permanent on this mod.
