Regulated and Mechanical Squonk Mods
Regulated squonk mods have a chipset controlling your wattage, with safety features like short circuit protection and battery monitoring as standard. They suit most squonkers in the UK, whether you are new to bottom feeding or just want consistent power with your builds.
Mechanical squonk mods strip that chipset out entirely. Power goes straight from the battery to the coil with no regulation, so the output drops as the battery drains. A mech squonker is for experienced builders who understand Ohm's law and battery safety limits. If you are not confident calculating amp draw for your builds, stick with a regulated squonk mod.
Most of our range is regulated, with wattage outputs spanning compact single battery mods up to high power dual battery box mods. Each one pairs with any bottom feed RDA that has a squonk pin fitted.
What Makes the Best Squonk Mod
The best squonk mod for you is the one that runs reliably with your own builds, and three things decide that: the battery, the wattage range and the bottle. Get those right and a regulated squonker will fire steady every session.
Battery comes first. A single 18650 keeps the mod small and light, a 21700 adds capacity for longer sessions between charges, and a dual battery squonker pushes more wattage with the runtime to match - worth it if you run lower resistance dual coil builds. Match the wattage range to your coils; most single and dual coil bottom feed builds sit comfortably under 100W, so headroom matters more than a big top-end number.
The squonk bottle is what sets these apart from a normal box mod. Look for a soft, food grade bottle that is easy to squeeze and springs back without sucking liquid back down the pin. Capacity usually runs 6ml to 10ml - a smaller bottle keeps the mod pocketable, while a 10ml bottle means fewer refills if you vape through 5ml or more a day.
Whatever you choose, high VG shortfills and freebase liquids work best in a squonk mod - the thicker juice wicks well through bottom feed RDAs and gives better flavour and vapour at sub ohm resistance.
Squonk Kits and Bottom Feed RDAs
Some squonk mods sell as standalone devices where you add your own RDA and battery. Others come as a squonk kit with a matched bottom feed RDA in the box, ready to build and vape.
Squonking needs a bottom feed RDA - one with a hollow squonk pin so e-liquid can flow up from the bottle. If you already own a bottom feed RDA you like, a standalone squonk mod is all you need. Just check the 510 connection fits and the mod handles your coil resistance - most regulated squonkers fire down to 0.05 to 0.1 ohm, which covers the vast majority of single and dual coil builds.
If you are new to squonking, a squonk kit takes the guesswork out of matching components. The RDA is designed to pair with that specific mod, so airflow, wattage range and bottle capacity all work together from the start. For premium builds, see our high-end mods range too.
