Shop for the latest & greatest Squonk Vape Mods Products from Legion Of Vapers.
Squonk vape mods are a category of advanced vaping hardware built around one idea: getting the flavour intensity of an RDA without the constant hand-dripping. Each mod houses a squeezable e-liquid bottle inside the device itself. Press the bottle, and liquid feeds upward through a hollow 510 pin into the atomiser deck. The result is fresh, saturated cotton on demand, with no drip tip dripping, no separate bottle of juice in your pocket, and no dry hits from a half-flooded tank. If you vape at high wattages and flavour is your priority, squonking is worth understanding. Use code for 5% off your first order, and free delivery applies on orders over £40.

This is the question most people thinking about squonking actually want answered.
Pre-built coil sub-ohm tank: A typical sub-ohm coil costs between £2.50 and £4.00 and lasts 7-14 days depending on usage and e-liquid sweetener content. At two weeks per coil and £3.00 average cost, you are spending roughly £6-7 per month on coils alone, not counting liquid.
Squonk setup with a rebuildable RDA: A 10-metre spool of quality Kanthal or Nichrome wire costs around £3-5 and provides enough material for dozens of builds. A bag of organic cotton suitable for vaping costs £4-6 and also lasts months. Assuming you rewick every 5-7 days, your weekly running cost for cotton and wire combined is roughly 30-50 pence. Over a month, that is under £2.
The liquid question. Squonk setups at higher wattages do consume more liquid per day than a lower-powered MTL or RDL tank. At 80 W with a dual-coil build, expect to use noticeably more e-liquid than at 25 W through a pod. If you vape frequently and buy shortfills, this cost is real and worth factoring in.
The honest summary. If you are already buying pre-built coils regularly, a squonk setup will save you money on coils over time once you are comfortable building. The upfront cost of a mod, an RDA, cotton, and wire is higher than buying a coil, but the ongoing cost is significantly lower. The break-even point is usually around 2-3 months of typical use. For vapers who go through coils quickly or vape heavily, the savings can be substantial.
The flavour difference is harder to put a number on. In our experience, a well-built squonk setup with fresh cotton and a quality high-VG liquid consistently outperforms a pre-built coil tank at an equivalent price point. That gap is the real reason most people stick with squonking once they start.
Most squonk mods you will find in the UK are regulated. A regulated squonk mod has a chip board that controls power output, provides safety protections, and lets you set your wattage, adjust temperature control if supported, and monitor battery level. They behave exactly like a standard regulated box mod in terms of operation, with the squonk bottle as the only meaningful addition. This is the right choice for the vast majority of vapers, including those moving up from sub-ohm tanks for the first time.
Mechanical squonk mods have no chip. No safety protections, no wattage control, no short-circuit cutoff. The power delivered to your coil is entirely determined by your battery voltage and coil resistance. When it works, the firing is instant and unfiltered. When something goes wrong, there is nothing between your battery and a dangerous failure.
Mechanical squonk mods are for experienced builders only. Before considering one, you need to understand Ohm’s law and how to calculate the amp draw your build puts on your battery. Going below your battery’s continuous discharge rating is not a mistake you want to make. If you are new to squonking or you have not built coils before, stick to a regulated mod. Read our Ohm’s law guide and vape battery safety guide before you consider going mechanical.
A few practical factors separate the right squonk mod from one that will frustrate you within a week.
Bottle size vs how much you vape. Most squonk bottles hold between 7 ml and 10 ml. If you vape heavily, a smaller bottle means more frequent refills. For casual use, the difference is negligible. At 80 W with a dual-coil build, you can burn through 7 ml in a couple of hours. Plan accordingly.
Battery type. Single-battery squonk mods are compact and easy to carry but have shorter battery life. Dual-battery mods give more power and longevity, which matters at higher wattages. Most modern squonk mods use 18650 or 21700 cells. The 21700 gives you more capacity in a single cell, which is useful if you are pushing 80 W or above. Our 18650 vs 21700 battery guide covers the practical differences in detail.
If you want portability, choose a single-battery mod. The trade-off is shorter sessions before you need a recharge or a battery swap.
If you want all-day power at higher wattages, choose a dual-battery or 21700 single-battery mod. You get significantly more headroom.
Standalone mod vs kit. If you already own a BF RDA, a standalone mod is the economical route. If you are starting from scratch, a kit bundle that includes a BF RDA saves you the compatibility research and usually works out cheaper than buying separately.
Wattage range. Most regulated squonk mods cover 80 W to 200 W. For typical single-coil builds at 0.3-0.4 ohm, you are operating in the 40-70 W range. For dual-coil builds, 70-100 W is common. A mod that tops out at 100 W covers most builds comfortably. More wattage headroom costs more and adds weight. Only pay for it if your builds demand it.

A squonk mod is a vape mod with a built-in squeezable e-liquid bottle. Pressing the bottle pushes liquid up through a hollow 510 pin into the RDA sitting on top, saturating the coil without hand-dripping. Releasing the bottle draws excess liquid back down.
A regulated squonk mod has a chip board that controls wattage output and includes safety protections. A mechanical squonk mod has no chip – it delivers raw battery power directly to your coil. Regulated mods suit most vapers. Mechanical mods are only appropriate for experienced builders who understand Ohm’s law and battery amp limits.
Yes. You need a BF (bottom-feed) RDA with a hollow 510 squonk pin. A standard RDA with a solid pin will fire normally on a squonk mod, but liquid cannot travel into the deck. Check product listings to confirm whether a squonk pin is included before buying.
A bottom feed pin is a hollow 510 connector that allows e-liquid to travel from the squonk bottle up into the RDA deck. If you look at the 510 pin on your RDA, a solid pin has no hole through the centre. A BF pin has a visible channel running straight through. Many RDAs ship with both types in the box. Check your RDA’s packaging or product page to confirm.
Most squonk bottles hold between 7 ml and 10 ml, depending on the mod. This is larger than the majority of sub-ohm tanks on the market and means fewer refills during a session.
Remove the side panel or access cover to expose the bottle. Most bottles have a fill port at the top. Fill slowly with a unicorn bottle or a thin-tipped nozzle and avoid overfilling, as a full bottle leaves no room to squeeze. Some mods like the Dovpo Topside Dual use a top-fill system that avoids removing any panels at all.
Over-squonking floods the deck with excess liquid, which causes gurgling and spitting from the drip tip. If this happens, stop firing, remove the RDA, and gently blow through the drip tip into a tissue to clear the excess. Most of the liquid drains back into the bottle on its own once pressure is released.
This depends on your coil build and resistance. A single coil at 0.3-0.4 ohm typically performs well between 40-70 W. A dual coil build at a similar resistance usually suits 70-100 W. Start at the lower end of the range for your coil and increase gradually until flavour and vapour production feel right.
Regulated squonk mods are accessible, but squonking involves building coils and wicking an RDA, which requires some knowledge and practice. If you are completely new to vaping, a pod kit or starter mod is a more practical starting point. Squonking suits vapers who are already comfortable with sub-ohm hardware and want to take a step up in flavour and control.
High VG shortfills work best – 70/30 VG/PG or higher. At the wattages most squonk builds operate, high VG liquids perform well and produce better flavour than thinner 50/50 blends. For nicotine, freebase at 3 mg/ml is the practical maximum for a direct lung squonk setup.
Empty as much remaining liquid as possible, remove the bottle if detachable, rinse with warm water two or three times, and leave it to dry fully before refilling with a new flavour. For persistent flavour ghosting, a diluted vinegar soak followed by a water rinse removes most residual taste.
In the long run, yes. Pre-built coils for sub-ohm tanks cost £2.50-4.00 each and need replacing every 1-2 weeks. Cotton and wire for an RDA build costs under 50 pence per rewick. The initial setup cost is higher, but most vapers reach break-even within a couple of months of regular use.
