I just had a terrifying experience. While putting my new Devastator away for the evening, my shirt sleeve got caught on the clock hanging on the wall, and BAM!... I lose control of the Devastator and the entire ash catcher portion with the removable downstem goes flying 4 feet straight down to the concrete floor. The ash catcher and removable perc survived unharmed. Incredible. This thing is a beast! I'm still in shock that I'm not sweeping up glass right now. Unbelievable. Do NOT try this at home.

Did you perceive the whole thing in slow motion and consider the direness of the situation and your inability to reach out and catch it before it hits the concrete? (These types of things always seem to happen in slow-motion for me :)) ... sure a lucky break (or not :)). Concrete usually = disaster

For me these accidents feel like fast-motion, it happens so fast that only thing I can do is freeze in shock and pretend it's fast-mo. :D
I hope no glass of mine will ever fall and break as I would not be able to save it in my shock-frozen state. Oh well, it happened already with my bubbler from Classifields :(. But good to have practice on braking glass on this cheap bub so it don't have to happen with a HT or a Cloud, hopefully.

Yeah, it seemed like slo-mo to me. My brain went from :o to :doh: to :ugh: to :bang: to :cry: before it even hit the cold concrete floor. Within seconds I was already wondering how much a replacement ash catcher would be. Then I picked it up and couldn't even find a scratch on it..... so my brain went all the way to :D.

I chalk it up to clean living. ;)

I think another new HT is in my future as well, goodbye SGW, I'll never forget you . . . :cry:

Bummer... Along those lines I broke my angle adapter and have been using the SGW HT exclusively past few days. I like it wet and dry! So glad I brought it as backup. New ALT angle adapter should arrive by week's end but am growing fond of SGW. My sympathies t-dub!

Stu: Be careful with that AC. Microscopic cracks are invisible. I think if glass falls significantly and doesn't break, it still weakens somewhat as it cracks microscopically. IMO any glass that survives deathly fall should be reannealed to get back to its initial durability. You can't know how small impact could crack it now.

What is the best cleaning brush for the ELBs? I am interested in peoples opinions.
I use a brush similar to this....

I just happened to have one laying around the lab that is the perfect diameter to snugly fit the ELB.

My roommates cloud is sick :(
Didn't heat up for me this morning and he said the timer would go off after like 30 seconds later in the day.
Looks like he will have to send it in! I hope it doesn't take forever like some cases I've seen

I know it's primitive, but I'm just using a pipe cleaner with the end doubled-back a couple inches. Surprisingly an in/out while turning motion, cleans it quite well. Cheap. After a week or so, an ISO soak.

i use small scissors. scrap the sides of the elb. i also have one soaking in alcohol, one in the cloud and one drying off, when I pull an elb out of the alcohol I rinse it with hot water and then dry.

after iso soaks, water rinse, toaster oven is BO$$ for drying and finishing the cleaning process, if you're impatient like me!
(thanks to slightymedicated for the idea)

throw it on toast and come back after im toasted(one ELB later) and its ready to go :spliff:

keep a scotch cup full of dirty iso in your kitchen? you prob own a cloud. :tup:

Hey guys, been awhile since I posted in here. Took a break from flowers for concentrates. Wife just had our baby a few months ago and had her medicating with the cloud and flowers. We've gone through 2 ounces in the last 2.5 months.

So now I see more glass is available, woot. Time for some shopping!

Sad to catch up in this thread to still see cloud failures :(

Has anybody accidentally only entered vapexhale.co, forgetting the m, when entering the URL to go to to the site? Because I just did. And I was rerouted to the Grenco Science G-Pen website. Interesting play GS.
