Thanks, Steve! It was just luck, but I knew the set up would be sweet! It’s tried and true.

Imo there’s a reason the topside are always spendy because they’re awesome. I’ve got the Revenant x TVL Delta Squonk ModTVL, pulse dual and athena and I could have gotten another topside and wish I would have. Maybe the rda is my issue with the Revenant x TVL Delta Squonk ModTVL because I’m used to a profile on mt TD and PD. Not a bad mod but not up to TD standards. Pulse is good but you either can’t fill the squonk all the way or it drips juice while reinstalling the bottle

I’ve used the TD daily for 20 months now and except for paint wear (that I covered with a wrap) it is still in like new shape. It’s durable and the fill system is absolutely top shelf. I love it.

However, I only still use it because of the fill system. It’s heavy, it’s ugly, the chipset is average, and I personally like big displays better. No doubt it’s one of my all time favorite mods, but if something came along with better aesthetics and a fill system as easy as the TD, I would switch. Not knocking the TD at all, by the way. I said I love it and I do.

I would assume it was leaking from the 510 connection to the tube because the liquid was coming from inside the body housing. It was enough to get your hands all sticky, not to mention your pocket. I never took it apart to try and fix.

lol!! That’s what I just waited 3 months for!
Refill bottles so I can start using my Pulse Dual again!!

After getting my first Topside (and then a second a few short months later), my Pulse Dual sat idle ever since. It’s a decent enough mod, but FUCK ME it’s fiddly to refill. Right PITA actually (by comparison).
It became that it “wasn’t worth the trouble” as fast as I’d have to refill it.
Man, the Topside spoiled us. :laughing:

I got rid of all my squonk mods. Maybe I should try the topside.

I’d recommend the Single (non-yihi) if you can still find it.
It lasts as long as two 18650’s IMO, if you use a Samsung 40T (21700).

I agree with @sprkslfly, put all my other (3 or 4) squanks in the grave yard box. The original single 21700 Topside has been a daily user for well over a year. If you use VW it is a well worth it.

Do you just remove the rta and fill through the squonk hole but in reverse? I’ve seen the refill bottles before but never actually understood their purpose.

Got an ageis squonk showing up Friday I hope it’s good otherwise I’ll just get another TD or so. Looked at the TS or TL but I only have 18650s

My only problem with the Topside Dual is the battery door that keeps popping open and chucking the batteries out. The TS single is fine though, I’m running 3 of them :grinning:

We should rename this forum “let’s talk about squonk bottles”.
Just saying.

I am running a Haku Riviera RDTA clone on top of my Pulse X. So Squonk and RDTA. Functions pretty well and looks nice.
