Review of GeekVape Athena Squonk Kit. First Look

Today we will talk about a set of a mechanical squonk box and a dripper from GeekVape under the general name Athena Squonk Kit.

The fashion for squonk boxes is gradually reaching Chinese manufacturers. Recently, quite a large number of companies from the Middle Kingdom have presented their devices of this class, and some of them turned out to be quite good. So far, the vaping market is not very saturated with “squonkers” and in the near future we will see a huge number of devices similar to each other in their functionality, and today we will get acquainted with a new product from GeekVape called Athena Squonk Kit.

Athena Squonk Kit is a set of a mechanical mod and a dripper, and both devices have one common name. new zealand vape Today, the “kit” is available in four possible colors and is sold both as a set and separately from each other.

The mod itself, traditionally, is a mechanical box for one 18650 battery. GeekVape decided not to chase new trends in battery formats, but to do everything, so to speak, in the classic way.

No squonk mod is possible without a built-in bottle for liquid. This time, of course, the situation is similar. The included bottle, made of silicone, holds 6.5 ml of liquid, which is quite a lot and is enough for long-term vaping.

The box mod also boasts a fire button lock, which is a very useful function in mechanical mods. The lock is implemented using a retractable plate, which simply does not allow the fire button to be pressed.

But the manufacturer did not try very hard with the included dripper. Of course, the Athena RDA is a completely new product for GeekVape, but, at first glance, this dripper does not look promising.

The manufacturer decided to use a less-than-convenient stand-less option as the base for its dripper. In addition, the legs of the coils are fixed with even more inconvenient slotted screws. Of course, this solution has its fans, but most vapers are more accustomed to the option with hex or Phillips screws.

The main potential complaint about this dripper is the implementation of the blowing. Air is taken in through the holes on top and directed at an angle to the coils. In any case, this is the vision of the blowing that the manufacturer offers us. It is absolutely unclear why GeekVape abandoned the more popular bottom or side blowing.

Structurally, the Athena Squonk Kit is not the worst device. Yes, so far some features of our new product today raise questions, but, one way or another, GeekVape products have always been in demand and, one can assume, this time there will be no exception.
