Squonk Mods
A squonk mod or a bottom feed mod or a squonker is a device that has a built-in bottle that contains e-liquid used for vaping. The squonker allows you to pump e-juice into the mod’s wicks and coils as needed. The built-in bottle can hold larger amounts of liquid as compared to RDA’s and RDTA’s.
A squonk mod is built to be used together with a bottom-feeding Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer (RDA) with a hollow, usually 510 connector. This eliminates the need to drip directly on coils. When you feel that your cotton is half dry, just squeeze on the bottle so the juice
will be fed upwards through the bottom of the atomizer.

Types of squonk mods
In general, squonk mods can be categorized into two types, the regulated and the unregulated squonk mods.
Regulated Squonks
A regulated squonker contains a board with chipset and circuits that make the device work. This type of vaping mod usually has battery safety features and temperature control functions. It is considered safer and easier to use as compared to the unregulated one.
Unregulated Squonks
Unregulated squonk mods or mechanical squonkers, on the other hand, do not contain board and a chipset to help regulate the power of the device. This type is much more complicated to use because it requires knowledge of Ohm’s law, as well as battery safety, in order to build the right coils in a safe way. We do not recommend anyone use unregulated mods, chips today are so advanced that no mechanical unregulated mod can be as good as regulated.
How does it work?
It is relatively easy to understand how a squonk mod works. Most squonk mods are powered by 18650, 20700, or 21700 batteries. Fill the squonk bottle manually or use a refilling bottle for easier fill. Whenever you feel like vaping is getting dry, just squeeze on the bottle to power the juice upwards through the atomizer. Once your wicks have saturated, release the bottle to allow the excess juice to flow back into the tank. You are
ready to vape again.
Advantages of using a squonk mod
More convenient to use. The built-in bottle that comes with the device eliminates the need to drip every time. It also lessens the need to refill often and to carry your e-juice bottles wherever you go. This makes it more convenient to use.
Fresh juice: The squeezable bottle allows vapers to enjoy the flavor and effects of fresh juice. Since
you will only squeeze the bottle to saturate your wicks when needed, there are fewer chances of leaving the juice sitting on the coils for a long time. You get to vape fresh juice almost every time.
