Yiloong SQ Xbox Squonk Mod Review

Contents

The Yiloong SQ Xbox Squonk Mod is a compact, square squonk box mod. It feeds e-liquid from a squeeze bottle inside the mod up through the 510 connector to a bottom-feed atomizer.

The SQ Xbox is a mechanical, unregulated device. It has no chip, so it has none of the electronic safety protections found on regulated mods.

That makes it a device for experienced adult vapers who understand Ohm's law and battery limits. It is not a good first squonk mod, and it is not for anyone new to vaping.

Key Takeaways

  • The Yiloong SQ Xbox Squonk Mod is a square, mechanical bottom-feed squonk box mod.
  • It has no electronic protections, so battery safety is entirely up to the user.
  • It suits experienced vapers who build their own coils, not beginners.

Yiloong SQ Xbox Squonk Mod: Features, Design, and Performance

The Yiloong SQ Xbox combines a squonk bottle with mechanical functionality to create an unregulated squonk box mod.

We could not find an official Yiloong spec page for this model. Details such as bottle capacity, battery options and materials vary between sellers' listings, so this guide does not state them. Confirm them with the seller before you buy.

Mechanical Functionality and Unregulated Device

The SQ Xbox operates as a mechanical squonk mod without regulating circuits or safety chips. Pressing the button connects the battery straight to the atomizer.

Users must understand Ohm's law before using it. Output depends entirely on the battery's charge and the coil's resistance.

There is no short-circuit protection, no low-voltage cutoff and no overheat protection. A coil built too low, or a short in the atomizer, can push a battery past its safe limit.

3D Printed Construction and Hollow Panel Design

Sellers describe the body as made with 3d printed technology. 3D printing allows a lightweight body with hollow panels.

The open panel design leaves room for the squonk bottle and lets you see the bottle and battery.

Any plastic body can be damaged by heat. Stop using the mod if the battery or body gets hot.

Battery Compatibility and Adapter Options

The mod uses removable lithium-ion cells. Check the listing for which sizes it accepts and whether an adapter is included.

With a mechanical mod, battery choice is a safety decision. Use a quality cell from a reputable brand whose continuous discharge rating is well above what your coil will draw.

Battery safety rules for mechanical mods:

  • Calculate the current draw for every build with an Ohm's law calculator, and stay within the battery's continuous rating.
  • Never use a cell with a torn or damaged wrap.
  • Carry spare cells in a case, away from coins and keys.
  • Don't mix old and new batteries, a point the FDA's vape battery safety tips also make.

Squonk Bottle and Refilling

The squonk system uses a soft, squeezable bottle that sits inside the mod. Squeezing pushes e-liquid up to wet the wick.

Squeeze gently so you don't flood the atomizer. Refill the bottle away from the battery, and wipe up any spilled e-liquid.

Keep e-liquid out of reach of children and pets. The CDC notes that people have been poisoned by swallowing vaping liquid or absorbing it through the skin or eyes.

Firing Switch Mechanism and Safety Considerations

The firing button sits on the side for thumb or finger use.

Squonk mechs often include a way to lock the switch so it can't fire in a pocket or bag. Always lock it or remove the battery when you are not using it.

Because the switch connects straight to the battery, a stuck button means the coil keeps firing. Check that the button moves freely before every use.

510 Connection and Atomizer Support

The 510 connection on top holds a bottom-feed atomizer. Squonk mods need a squonk-ready atomizer with a hollow bottom-feed pin.

Make sure the atomizer's pin sits properly and doesn't short. Check atomizer diameter against the listing to avoid overhang.

Visual Appeal: X Letter Logo, Colors, and Finish

The X letter logo gives the device its Xbox-style name and appears on the exterior panels.

Sellers offer the mod in several colors and finishes. A textured finish helps with grip and hides fingerprints.

Maintenance, Durability, and Material Resistance

Clean the 510 connection and firing switch regularly. Dirty contacts increase resistance and can cause the connection to heat up.

Replace the squonk bottle if it cracks, leaks or holds old flavors.

Wipe away any e-liquid that leaks onto the body. Inspect the battery contacts and the battery wrap often, and replace any cell with damage.
