One of my NET juices is being vaped, it's the cigar one. The wife doesn't like it and I'm in the same boat. The pipe tobacco one is going to be ready soon, I have higher expectations for that one if smell is an indication.

So I have an Arctic Dolphin Anita coming,
The Anita is suppose to leak! Many negative feedbacks all over the net :(
I personally would go with the Inbox, it has a dna! Only an old school 75, with an 18650, but will do TC better than any china BF'er :) $70 at FT not a bad price for a reg BF'er with a dna :)
$69.92 Authentic HCigar VT Inbox V3 75W TC VW APV Box Mod - 1-75W / 200-600'F(100-300'C) / 1*18650 / built-in 7ml Squonk Bottle at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Thought for a moment that I was going to finally get my DNA C mod, nowhere could I find a 250C LV Drone (I should have known this)
Oh those Drone 250C are just around the corner from being released. Many of us have been waiting for it for months now. Element Vape has now listed it on their website and that means it will be here any day now. But no pics or details as of yet.

I had to do some fancy maneuvering to get it entered in my wish list.

OK, since squonking, perish the thought, seems so popular in this thread maybe I can get some advice.

I tried squonking on a Kanger 160 which is a total POS in terms of TC so I use it as a dripper in power mode. To make it worse the plastic taste of the bottle just won't go away. I've soaked them, for weeks, in 91% IPA, hydrogen peroxide and dish detergent to no avail Still tastes like plastic. What makes it different is that the bottle doesn't screw on but has a wedge stopper that slides up and down the pick-up tube.

Any suggestions for a better bottle? Even if it comes attached to a mod as long as it's a DNA powered one but it can't taste like plastic. I can't deal with that plastic taste at all.

That bottle looks a lot like the one used in the Geekvape GBOX 200W (same well pipe too), which is also plastic. Although I don't ever recall tasting plastic from that bottle. But still, I would still away from those bottles too. But there are places claiming they have silicon replacement bottles for the GBOX. Maybe you can find one of them or find something online about a silicon replacement for the Kanger 160. I could take measurements of the GBOX bottle if you like.

Just use "geekvape-gbox-silicon-conversion" for search term
aah....another forum
Copy and pasted:
I really love sqounking.
buth every mod i owned has come with these crapy worthless Plastic bottles that´s super hard and breaks easy.
so i just want to let everyone know that it is Possible to convert Gbox to a silicon bottle sqounker.
what i did was removed the 4 screws on the front cover, removed the 2 screws that hold the stainless steal tube. and just replaced it with a YFTK 8ml sqounk bottle. it fitts direct and u dont have to make any modifications so u can restore the mod to stock when u are going to sell it.

The tube in the POS Kanger is brass and has a cone shaped, brass, plug that "caps" the bottle. The big question is the diameter of the mouth of that silicon bottle. If you could throw a dial caliper on that and let me know, I'd appreciate it Bill. I just checked the stock bottle and the mouth is about 7.35mm ID.

I really don't like dripping, I'm to lazy to be bothered to stop, uncap a bottle, count drops, cap the bottle, wipe off things and get going again so squonking with it might work IF I can find a bottle that doesn't wreck the taste of everything. Maybe I'm just sensitive to it, or maybe just expect it to taste like crap now no matter how I try killing that plastic flavor. Beats me.

Oh, did I mention that the Kanger KBox160 is a big POS?

  • 7.3mm I.D. bottle opening - 9.1mm O.D.
  • 18.5mm wide for the width of the bottle
  • 47.2mm tall

I just took some more measurements and the bottle is only about 48.5mm high and there's no room, internally, for a taller bottle. I guess I'll just use it as a dripper or throw an Aromamizer on it, stay in power mode, and call it a day with this thing. It ain't worth the trouble. Although, looking, I do see one that's 48mm tall which would work. Maybe I'll give it a try.

Just ordered two, fingers crossed.
