Dynavap VapCap

[TheVaporist]

Just found this on the @VapCap FB page, you were so deeply concentrated on the new tip refinements that your forgot to post this here too George! Didn't you?!

When our childrens will be able to play with these cubes?!

Happy new year to the Dynavap's family!

 

[davesmith]

So I've got an og but all this talk of airflow has my ears pricked. I love the form of the vapcap, I love the level of extraction and I bloody love their company ethos and the way George operates his business. One thing I hate is how restrictive the flow on my og is.

I understand the feathering of the carb, I've replaced the ceramic screen with a ss one and I keep it clean. Mouth pulling with a closed carb is great vapour but anything less doesn't quite cut it for me.

So, with all these new developments is there a version with less restriction without compromising clouds?

And if I took my og condenser and made the opening a bit wider would it negatively effect performance?

Thanks team vapcap. And a special thanks to @VapCap for all the help and generally being a cool guy

cappy newyear to all capheads around the world !

Happy new year to everyone!!

I started the year ordering a Ti Woody for a heavy smoker friend to fuck combustion, upgrading my gf to a Ti Glassy after she fucked combustion by the end of the year with the help of an OG, upgraded the tip of my Omnivap to one of the new ones and ordered custom caps for the 3 of us.

Keep up the good work George @VapCap, can't wait to see what you have ready for us!!

That's a hell of a start for the new year!
Congratulations on being combustion-free!!

And happy new year too!!

Edited because of below: Congratulations to your gf too, didn't read that at the first place, because the vapcap hits hard today

@davesmith, I don't know about the old OG but I have a new one and it is performing quite the same as my Omnivap with the new tip with improved grooves when it comes to airflow.
I can definitely do a straight lung pull with my Omnivap fully opened, and it gives you a good amount of vapor. Not as dense and flavorful as a mouthpull on a closed carb but definitely great!

Just tried for you in the name of science : fully opened omni, loose pack, double torch aiming the bottom of the cap all for the first and second hit giving nice clouds and good flavor and a third cycle on the top of the cap giving the classic finishing hit.
This way it has a little restriction, not as opened as a mighty of course, I would say 20% more (voodoo maths here). For my lungs I barely notice the restriction. The flavor and vapor density are good but diluted and as I'm usually using it pretty much closed (always playing around the carb) and doing mouthpulls like in old times my advice is biased of course

Dave - I have found just the opposite. That is, my glass OGs have better airflow than my Ti tipped VC until I got the very latest in-house made tip and now my Ti draw resistance is reasonably equal to my OG.

I don't mouth to lung pull. I pull straight to the lungs and, while its a restricted draw, I don't find it to be too bad and I get GIANT clouds of vapor and that's what I'm looking for.

Please do not take offense, but we have many MMJ patients on this board (including me) so its not out of the realm of possibility, but do you have any sort of pulmonary disease that impacts your ability to draw hard on a VC?

Our own beloved Director of DynaVap Marketing (acting), @Squiby, has indicated that she has very bad asthma and breathing issues so she does use mouth to lung and seems to be very successful at it. Perhaps that's the way forward for you.

P.S. Squibs....just joking about the Dir of Mkt....but you really should have that title! You are the bomb at it.

You either need to buy a Ti tipped VonG bodied Vapcap, or if you already have a Ti Tip, wood mouthpiece and regular condenser or Omnivap you can just buy a VonG body.

There are only two Ti Vapcap models that will fit your 18mm bubbler; a Ti VonG S Fat which has an 18mm VonG body and a wood mp. Or a OmniVonG with an 18mm fat body.

The stock body choices are Cocobolo, Blackwood, Burl and Black and Whilte Ebony.



I have a couple Ti VonG S Skinny Vapcaps with the 14mm VonG body. They are tiny and fit comfortably in a pocket. The 18mm would be slightly more bulky but it would still be a tiny device that would fit easily in a closed fist.

Note that the Dynastash only accommodates a Vapcap with a maximum girth of 14mm. The 18mm VonGs won't fit.



They could be catching up from being closed on the stat New Years holidays. George @VapCap also mentioned in a previous post that there have been some challenges with messages getting through their new website contact page. He may see this post with the callout. Don't worry, George Will fix you up properly.

Thanks! I think I might have a reducer sitting around in the back of my drawer, either way I've been thinking I might prefer the 14mm vong for the option of the dynastash.

I like the ebony style, I'll definitely have to purchase a full unit since all I previously had was the OG VC for 2 days.

I was doing my best to be patient with the holiday season wrapping up, just was making sure he hasn't dropped off the radar completely.

Sorry had a mistake there, the one that fucked comustion this year was my GF. I have been smoke free for a few years

Happy new year !!

Thanks for the reply. although not what I wanted to hear. I don't have any respiratory problems it's just a preference thing. all the talk of grooves and other things got my hopes up that my one qualm with the vapcap was being addressed. It's an amazing device granted and I do use it I just find that restriction too much. I got rid of the solo and air for the same reason. Anyone else wish to chime in? Haven't the condensers been changed since I got mine? (It's an
E2a on their site the condensers look just like a straight tube, is they're just a small hole or are they more open?

I ahve both OG glass condenser types...the original one that looks a bit like an eye dropper...that is, its tapered at the end, and the current ones which are more of a straight tube. Frankly, I don't see a difference in draw resistance between them.

 

[TheVaporist]

Feeling creative today, and the new pictures of the @VapCap page made me think "what about a quick pack shot for the sake of it?"

So here is Barbie and Ken Capper, getting lazy at the beach (for your special pleasure @Baron23 referring to this post ).

It's an amazing device granted and I do use it I just find that restriction too much.

You may be able to open your airflow a bit by adjusting your condenser position. Remove your condenser and slide it back into the body, but do not push it in all the way flush with the end of the body. This should give you a less restricted airpath.

I tried out my new Ti woody yesterday. I'm sure there's a learning curve (or I could go back and read 300+ pages), but you guys are so helpful I figured I'd just ask the longtime owners for their suggestions:

- as everyone says, I got huge hits - but I was only getting 1 per heat cycle. I got 3-4 heat cycles from a
mid-position (new tip) screen (.06g load), and the ABV was black, fine - almost like what would come out
of a combustion device - way darker than my mighty's ABV
- I was mostly using a closed carb; I guess I was seeing just how dense the vapor can be on it
- I tried the 'mouthpull', but it seemed to generate too much vapor: the vapor was escaping, like when one
puffs on a pipe to get it all fired up
- the flavor wasn't what I'd call great (nothing compared to my mighty)

so I'm thinking I kind of had it in 'hyperdrive' mode by using a closed carb, and that I'll get more hits per heat cycle, and better flavor, if I leave the carb open.

am I even in the ball park?

 

[snamuh]

I usually end up with issues from tight restriction. It's not that bad in my case.

I have an AA and FF2 and both have given me issues when used as daily divers.

I tend to use my VC without touching the carb...
I think that with the way I vape with the VC, like a joint, the draw restriction isn't as detrimental to my lungs as it would be from and AA or FF2. You get more for less lung stress with the VC. But I do think it would be nice with less restriction.

@davesmith

You are a glass blower? You should try making a stem with a bigger carb and experiment! I might do this when I get home today with diamond Dremel tip... I'll probably end up breaking it though.....

This makes me think that you may be mouthpulling too hard and could benefit from vaping at a slightly lower bowl temperature.

How many jets are you using? Try heating a bit higher on the cap. This will give you a cooler bowl temperature.

Your hits, especially with the new tips should be flavorful on all three cycles, less so during that third cycle.

I start my first cycle heating the cap bottom, towards the mp end. The second cycle has the heat centered around the middle of the cap and the third, near the top. My ABV is consistently a medium toast color. I don't grind, but rather just pop in a nug.

You get more for less lung stress with the VC. But I do think it would be nice with less restriction.

The new Ti Tips have less airflow restriction and the newly introduced, not yet being sold, Wide Channel Tips, promise even greater airflow.

I like to use both a mouthful technique, to take advantage of the restriction of a closed carb, coupled with a degummed hemp fiber filter sandwiched between two screens. Easy on the lungs and cool smooth vapor.

[cybrguy]

Do you pop it out and crush it before your last draws, or do you just get what you can out of the nug? I'm never satisfied I got everything if I never crush it and I am into getting all I can. I tend to vape to dark brown in all my vapes.

I have a friend who never vapes past light brown, but that seems wasteful to me...

Then again, for those who use their ABV for stuff (like smoothies) they get the rest later.

thanks squiby! (knew you'd come through)

- I have a triple jet. it seems like the flame is so big you can't really focus on 1/3 of the cap - the whole cap
gets heated (maybe I need to pull the torch back some?)
- I think your comment about mouthpulling too hard makes sense - I was getting too much vapor

my homework for next time: pull torch back, try heating more towards the end of the cap, take smaller mouthpulls.

I guess I'll try that first, then refine my carb technique.

I don't crush the nug or fuss with it in anyway. It goes in, is heated 3 times and comes out toasty brown, not too dark. I like the flavor hits and don't usually go past that.

My ABV is used again to infuse coconut oil for healing salves etc. It's like having the best of both worlds.

Thanks, gonna give this a try after dinner

Yea I like less resistance on any vape I use often, As you can probably see from my sig. Yea I blow a little glass it comes in very handy when you break a stem or something a note... drilling glass is risky for sure.

Oh and I missed the happy new year in my op! Big love vapfam

My ABV is used again to infuse coconut oil for healing slaves etc. It's like having the best of both worlds.

I sure hope that was a typo...

 

[Baron23]

I sure hope that was a typo...

LOL Just can't keep them dang slaves healthy anymore! LOL

Little aside on political correctness. Migrated my vid, data, voice to Verizon FIOS recently. I got the enhanced DVR, which is where the hard drive storage is located, and you can control and see programs from on any other FIOS set top box in the house.

Well, these DVRs and other set top boxex were called master and slave units but that is apparently unacceptable in general conversation during these days of the thought and speech police (despite the fact that indeed master/slave is used through out tech) so they are now called server and client units....which is actually not particularly accurate but WTF.

Cheers
