Today we will see the Aegis Squonk, a Mod BF that is convertible to conventional Mod no BF. Just like the entire Aegis range, it is a device prepared for water and blows. As a novelty, it incorporates a new top filling system and an announced maximum power of 100W that I do not believe since it only has a 18650, and therefore it is not possible. Let's see it.

The design, in general, is, in my opinion, beautiful and striking following the wake of the Aegis range.
One of its novelties is the possibility of converting it into a conventional Mod, for that, you have to remove two of the four side screws, remove half of the Mod that includes the bottle and replace it with another half housing that is sold separately and that makes it a Mod no BF. I have not tried this option by not having it. In the union of a BF casing with the Mod and as you will see in the photos there are toric ones that are very easy to be damaged or lost, well, the first fault, there are no spare parts included.
To remove the bottle is not a simple process because we need tools to help us. Touching the bottle, We will find that it is hard, and we have to press it hard to rise the liquid. It is not pleasant at all.
The recharge system is ineffective based on some atomizers in which you move the top cover, and you have a recharge hole-free, but what happens? It locates close to the atomizer which leaving a part of the bottle cap to contact with the liquid.
The pushbuttons and the electronics perform well with nothing remarkable to highlight, proper operation the usual protections and good behavior in battery management.
Positive points:
- Simple but correct electronics fulfills its function well with good battery management;
- Convenient for using;
- Very comfortable in hand;
- Good head;
- Mod resistant to water and shock;
Negative points / to improve:
- Touch of the pulsation to fill, very hard, and not at all comfortable;
- Indication of up to 100W of non-real power;
- No inclusion of spare screws, very very serious failure;
- Load not too comfortable since the bottle tip you have to get it inside well so that the sides of the tip dirty the lid is not a completely clean refill;
- The additional housing for conversion to non-BF should already be included and not for sale apart;
- To remove the bottle is quite complicated. It is not an easy or comfortable process.
- The brightness of the display is very low outside.
