The Top Squonk (Bottom-Feeding) RDAs.

0
A squonk RDA is basically an RDA that comes with a bottom-feeding pin. Coupled with a good squonk mod, you can feed liquid through the pin to your RDA, eliminating the need to constantly drip. Almost every new RDA today comes with a bottom-feeding pin, but that doesn’t automatically make it a good squonking RDA.

So I’ve created this best squonking RDA list to highlight the ones that in my opinion are great squonkers. I’ve divided the list into 22mm and 24mm RDAs, since 22mm ones are more popular. Discontinued RDAs, rare or hard to buy (secret FB group) ones are listed for the clones. Everything else is listed as the authentic.

I will keep growing this squonk RDA list over time, so make sure you bookmark this page.

Gas Mods G.R.1 RDA – $35

The new RDA by Gas Mods can easily be mistaken for a high-end $150 rda. This is no accident, since the company has years of experience designing and manufacturing high-ends RDAs for other brands.

22mm with removable airflow inserts make it very flexible. A “slammed” design measuring less than 20mm in height without a driptip. The flavor is really intense on the G.R.1 and it’s pretty easy to work with.

Plus, there are tons of caps and driptips by Gas Mods at really affordable prices, including 24mm caps. You can mix and match easily and it will look great on a whole lot of squonk mod setups. The newer version has a black deck.

Skyfall RDA Clone – $15

The Skyfall RDA is perhaps the most sought-after squonk RDA. With a limited run and slow production on the authentic, it’s very hard to obtain.

The clone is a 22mm atty with a ultem / PEI airflow control. It also has replaceable airflow inserts for different styles of vaping. The body construction is 316 stainless steel, and it is designed as a single coil RDA.

Hadaly RDA Clone – $15

The Hadaly RDA is one of the best flavor-chasing RDAs I have personally used, and convinced me to switch to squonking. It has a low-profile and a unique single-coil clamp-style deck. You can buy replacement colored or ultem topcaps to complete the look.

It’s a 22mm atty with a minimalist exterior design, and adjustable side airflow. You can get an amazing vape with all types of coils, and it has plenty of airflow. The only real con with the Hadaly is that it oversquonks pretty easily.

The authentic has been discontinued since the Entheon, however you can some pretty good clones.

Haku Venna (Clone) – $15

The Venna is a pretty fine single coil RDA. It is more restricted than the earlier Haku RDAs, but the build quality is a step up. With a short profile and lots of accessory options available on FastTech, it’s a pretty popular clone.

It’s 22mm with vertical airflow holes on both sides. Made from 316 stainless steel.

Haku Phenom RDA (Clone) – $20

The Phenom Haku RDA is one of the most popular 22mm flavor-chasing squonk RDA in 2017. While the authentic costs about $100 and is only available through secret Facebook groups, you can grab this YFTK clone of the Haku right away.

It’s a single-coil, low-profile RDA with an unique airflow. In my review of the Haku, I told you that I had a great experience with it from the first build. I still feel that way and my Haku is still on top of my squonk RDA list. There are two versions, but this is the Haku Phenom clone which I prefer.

KRMA RDA (Clone) – $20

The KRMA by Mission XV is a minimalist 22mm single-coil squonking RDA with tons of flavor. It’s pretty hard to oversquonk on this RDA because of the two-level airflow. It’s hard to tell you exactly what’s special about the KRMA.

However, it is pretty easy to build on, and will look pretty good on a lot of squonk mods. Airflow is open-restricted, for a good combination of flavor and vapor.

Hussar RDA (Clone) – $16

The Hussar RDA is a tiny 22mm, stylish squonking RDA that will look great on any mod. It fits 510 driptips only, and has a super-small chamber. It’s pretty much the same deck as the Hussar RDTA, except you do not have a tank at the bottom.

The new squonk system distributes juice evenly on both sides. The Hussar RDA also comes with a new design cap. Getting an authentic invoilves joining a secret Facebook group.

Basic RDA (Clone) – $20

The clone is the old version of the Basic, which is my #1 flavor-chasing RDA. The deck is pretty similar to the current version, with top airflow controls. The Basic is a 22mm single-coil RDA.

Building on it is easy, although the airflow is pretty limited. You can get a good restricted lung hit from it.

SQUI RDA (Clone) – $8

The price is crazy on this SQUI clone. The authentic SQUI squonk RDA by Proteus Progeks was a limited-run design and is no longer available.

22mm and made for single coil, the clamp system works well. However, you may find it easier to just trap your leads under the screws. The airflow and flavor is above average, and you get a flavorful restricted lung hit from it.

Armor RDA (Clone) – $20

Its a tiny RDA that can pack a punch, and was designed for squonking. With a 22mm diameter, you can fit medium sized builds for both single or dual-coil setups. The thing that makes the Armor different is the airflow. Expect a smooth vape with minimal spitback and awesome flavor, even with the clone.

You can get the version 1 or version 2. The deck is about the same, with the version 2 introducing a slightly different airflow design.

NarCa RDA (Clone) – $8

The NarCa RDA is the latest from NarMods, the same people who made the legenday NarDa RDA. The NarDa has long been hailed as the king of flavor for a single-coil squonking RDA.

The NarCa maintains the signature airflow style, with some modifications. It’s 22mm and uses flathead scews. rSince this is very new there’s not much reviews up yet, but I will be updating this page soon with some actual feedback.

The Coppervape clone also has an ultem (PEI) topcap sold seperately.

One RDA (Clone) – $7

The One RDA is a super-minimalist RDA for a single coil builds, measuring 22mm in diameter. Building on it is very straightforward, and the slammed profile almost guarantees great flavor with small or medium coils. The authentic has been discontinued.

This RDA will look great on those tiny squonk mods.

Entheon RDA – $14

The Entheon RDA by Psyclone Mods is the successor to the Hadaly. It solves all the issues most people had with the Hadaly (like over-squonking) and comes with tons of extras.

You’ll get a stainless steel beauty ring, two types (stainless steel and Delrin) of wire-bore driptips, two types of 510 driptips, and matching driptip adapters. With a new clamp style and more restricted airflow, you’ll love using the Entheon.

Wotofo Nudge 22/24mm – $25

The Wotofo Nudge RDA is available in both 22mm and 24mm. Both versions are similar on the outside, but the decks are different. The Nudge 22m’s deck looks more straightforward. Meant for a single coil build in the 22mm, you can get dual coil build in the 24mm.

They come in a variety of bright colors, and uses an 810 driptip with 510 adapter included.

Hellfire Strike RDA Clone – $20

The Hellfire Strike RDA, like most of their other atties, is meant for a single coil build and measures 22mm in diameter. You get basic screws to hold down your leads, again like every other RDA they make.

It comes with a proprietary wide-bore driptip, so this RDA is not meant for MTL. Instead, you can expect a good restricted lung vape from it. The clone comes with a 510 driptip adapter and is made from 316 stainless steel.

Odis O-Atty V1 RDA – $87

(O-Atty Clone for $11)

The O-Atty version 1 by Odis Collection is near legendary. I would say it’s on par with the Narda. A 22mm RDA, the only pain with it is the build deck. Thos clamps are difficult to work with.

Once you get the hang of it though, you’ll truly appreciate the flavor you get out of the O-Atty. Odis collection also as a 25mm version and lots of caps for the O-Atty.

Nixon V1.5 RDTA – $25

Before you ask me, let me tell you that I have no idea what the Version 1 of this looked like. However, from the moment I saw the Nixon RDA by Gas Mods I was truly excited to try it. My review is coming, but let me tell you what I know about it so far.

Its a 22mm flavor-chasing single-coil RDTA that looks the part of a high-end RDA. You can get it in black or satin, but you can also easily pick up the GasMods driptips and Ultem/Delrin caps at just below $6. It holds 2ml of juice and refilling is pretty tough unless you use it for squonking.

For an authentic RDA, at this price and will affordable accessories, it’s a no-brainer.

Dead Rabbit SQ RDA – $35

The Dead Rabbit SQ is the 22mm little brother of the Dead Rabbit RDA. The post design is similar, but for a single coil. This version also features a MTL-like airflow, although I don’t think of it as a MTL RDA.

Plus, there are some incremental improvements on this like the anti-spin lock.The airflow is more restricted than you would expect.

The flavor is good but not as intense on true single-coil squonking RDAs. It’s possible to do a dual-coil build on this, which I think will give you better flavor than a single coil.

Blitz Ghoul RDA – $19

The Ghoul RDA is a surprisingly good mass-produced RDA, featuring a single-coil deck with smooth airflow. The base is 22mm in diameter, although the middle part is slightly wider. The single ceramic post that holds your coils is certainly the most unique part of this RDA.

Not a bad item to have in your collection, although not the best in this list.

NaRda RDA (Clone) – $15

The NarDa RDA is in the same category as the Hadaly. Like the Hadaly, it’s meant for a single coil build. It’s also 22mm in diameter and has minimalist design with a low-profile.

The key difference with the Hadaly is the clamp-style deck and the airflow. Personally I think the Hadaly is better in both, but the NarDa isn’t too far off. Try buiding on this with the Geekvape pre-built coils and you can get amazing flavor and vapor with a single coil.

M-Atty RDA (Clone) – $15

The M-Atty, removed from the hype and ridiculous prices people are asking for the authentic, is an OK squonk RDA. Normal people will never have the change of owning one at the standard retail price.

It is 22mm in diameter, and is meant for dual coil builds with small or medium coils. The clone version is 316 stainless steel and comes with a 510 driptip adapter. There’s really nothing special about it. It’s good, but not any better than the other RDAs listed here.

Jorda B RDA (Clone) – $12

The Jorda is very specific to MTL vaping. It measures 22mm and designed for simple round-wire type of single coil builds. The clone version also comes with an extra clear PMMA topcap.

24mm & Larger Squonk RDAs

The 24mm squonk category is growing, and I’ve listed them here so you can maximize your squonk mods that support larger atomizers.

Wotofo Recurve RDA – $27

The new RDA by Mike Vapes is surprisingly good. A single-coil 24mm RDA, the deck measures only 20mm. The airflow is smooth and very responsive. I reviewed this a while back, and gave it the thumbs up. Comes with two 810 driptips and a 510 adapter.

Building on the Recurve is straightforward. The cap is really thick, but there’s news about replacement 22mm caps in PMMA, PEI and other materials. For the price, this is a really good flavor-chasing RDA.

Vaponaute Le Supersonic (Clone) – $13

The Supersonic is the 24mm brother of the Le Concorde. For single coil builds, especially round wire and smaller clapton / fused coils. The screws are pretty old-school, but they work well enough.

The most interesting thing about the Supersonic is actually the airflow. You get more air than the Le Concorde, but equally smooth. Perfect for flavor-chasing.

The Flave RDA (Clone) – $16

If you’ve been looking for a single-coil 24mm squonk RDA, this is what you need! Think of it as a larger, badder Hadaly. 24mm in diameter with side adjustable airflow, it comes with a wide bore Ultem driptip (non-standard) and the squonking pin.

This clone by SXK is so good and affordable, but the authentic is pretty well priced too. The Flave took a lot of the best parts from other squonk RDAs, and made the best of it.

I cannot wait for the RDTA version of the Flave for my squonking needs.

SXK Kryten RDA (Clone) – $15

Psyclone Mods hit paydirt with the Hadaly RDA, but the Kryten has nothing in common except that it also has a squonk pin.

This SXK clone of the Kryten is fabulous, well machined and even comes with a resin driptip. 24mm in diameter with side adjustable airflow, you can get great flavor from the Kryten.

The design is minimalist, so it up to your taste, but it does what its supposed to do darn well.

Dead Rabbit RDA – $22

The Dead Rabbit RDA is a collobation between YouTube Review Heathen and Hellvape. It’s become so popular that I almost have to include it here, especially since it can squonk!

It’s a 24mm RDA with a real easy build deck meant for large coils. You can easily slide your coils in and get the perfect dual coil build. It has an aggressive design and comes in many different colors, including an all-black matt finish.

Aqueitas RDA – $25

The Aqueitas is a collaboration between Hellvape and Ambitionz Vaper, a prominent YouTube reviewer. Inspired by the Dead Rabbit and Drop, it features a very similar dual-coil deck and overall look. It also uses an 810 driptip, with 510 adapter included.

However, this 24mm RDA has a unique airflow system. You can flip the barrel of the RDA to get the airflow to enter at an upwards or downwards angle. Plus, the airflow is channeled inwards closer to the coil, for better flavor. I preferred the Aqueitas RDA over the Dead Rabbit RDA.

Goon 24 RDA – $45 to $60

SJMY Clone for $12

This RDA has achieved iconic status, but most people use it as a regular RDA instead of a squonker. The truth is that you can get a squonking pin from 528 Customs and replace the standard center pin to turn this into a squonker.

You can also use the link below to get an alternative squonk pin for just $1 that fits and works flawlessly on the Goon 24.

Available in stainless steel, black, copper or bronze. Its 24mm in diameter with deep juice wells and a clamp deck. You can get colored caps, funky driptips and all sorts of accessories for the Goon to match the look of your mod.

The airflow and flavor of the Goon, in my opinion, is second to none.

Aromamizer V-RDA – $27

One of the moost popular 24mm bottom-feeding RDA right now. What makes the Aromanizer V-RDA a great one choice is that it is made of high-quality materials, and the unique spiral airflow eliminates almost all spitback problems. The unique airflow design also means that it is virtually leak proof.

Plus, it has a huge Velocity-styled deck that we all love so much, with enough room to fit any type of coil you can think of. The squonk pin comes as an accessory in the kit, and Steamcrave has replacements pins in stock just in case you lose it.

Discontinued RDAs

These will be listed here for a limited time and I will remove them if they are permanently discontinued..
