From wiki:

The first number represents the outer diameter (OD) in millimeters (mm) at the base (widest part) of the inner joint. The second number represents the ground glass length of the joint in millimeters.

So in the diagram below, 19/22 = <-A->/<-B->

dia_taper_joints.gif


INNER JOINT I.D. x O.D. - 12mm x 15mm
OUTER JOINT I.D. x O.D. - 18mm x 21.6mm
Ground Glass Length - 22mm

Our beloved 22mm tapered joints are "medium length". They are nearly universally a 1:10 taper.

EDIT: TL;DR - The first number, 18 is the OD while the second number, 22, is the GG length. So yes they are all 19mm.

Hittin it with my EVO and it has less resistance than any piece in the house. Crazy. Gotta do a side by side for pain/flavor comparison. But this is the ideal piece for a solo without question. Last fucking thing you want with a solo is more resistance.

That's 2 bubblers from hell that I use now from this thread - both cheaper then the herbs that are smoking in them. This thread is like a garage sale, I fucking love it.

FWIW if any of us that ordered right on the cusp of the Chinese Holiday from Ms. K. Wu, you may be surprised!!. I was given notice that my order has migrated over to the USPS site. It shows that it is in China still but that's better than not having any info or the "PROCESSING" info that leaves you in limbo. In the past the good news is/was that it made it to the USPS tracking prompt and from there I have always received alerts to its where abouts and have always rec'd the item.OK I hope some of you, if any who did as I did, do get a shipping alert that your piece is on its way to you.:cheers:

I think one user bought one. Takes way too much water to cover the top showerhead and the bottom showerheads don't do much in terms of diffusion.

You know, it looks to me like the bottom part with the slashes on my D020 is bigger then most the pics I see (larger circumference). Sure hits nice!

Pics?

I really like how the cuts are not vertical but angled. It makes it look as when one slit gets over worked, the bubbles move to the next slit, good even diffusion. Usually showerheads have one or two just slightly bigger slits that do most of the work, with the others firing only when you pull harder.

Why don't more showerheads/circ pers use this technique?

So this isn't a good piece for cheap?
If you spend $800 I'm sure you'll get what your after!
This was less than $35?

Hi guys, first real post in the forums besides intro. After lurking and going through this thread in the past few weeks, I ordered these two pieces (on the 7th to be exact):

1. http://www.dhgate.com/product/1pcs-glass-pipes-glass-bubbler-glass-glass/179564205.html
2. http://www.dhgate.com/product/1pcs-glass-pipes-glass-bubbler-glass-glass/179564210.html

That seller was a bit less expensive (and free shipping to USA) than the seller that the other members were buying from and I was getting a little skiddish because people were talking about no shows or trouble with shipping info. I believe that is just sellers from China in general and/or DHGATE. I ordered on the 7th, messaged seller a few days later to confirm and just kind of see how communcation was, seller said they ran out of stock and will ship around the 20th. Then on the 13th the order was updated to shipped and was given a tracking number. Of course to date the tracking number is "invalid" or whatever other issue.

Hoping these things show up before end of month to Miami, because my packages get auto forwarded down to me (living in Panama) and arrives within 5 days. Stoked because living here my choices are pretty thin, and really wasn't sure about forking out $300+ for first glass bubbler from an American brand as I am really just beginning down this rabbit hole :)

I hope to pair the small one with a vaporizer, still doing research as it will be my first real portable...thinking Solo!

Might be a bit easier to compare sizes with dry pieces and such... Anyways, the chipped slits are what the price buys you... Just something I've noticed from browsing a lot of shops. Decent money will get polished cuts and such.

Yeah I noticed mine looks bigger under water:brow: My perc has one chip that's has a slightly bigger hole that allows air out that one spot when you pull super slow but has no effect under normal use.

I've searched all over this thread for a pic of the D020 with a solo in use for size comparison but no luck. Can someone point me to a img or post one up.

SSVUN-YAH, I don't know how I missed it but glad I asked. Thank you! Looks like a perfect first piece.

D.D. did you put in a credit card number on your account? if so, the card was charged, go on line to your credit card company and check or give em a call and see if it had been charged.
Ioffer is usually is pretty good with the paper trail that shows that you bought something and most of the time the same thing with the tracking info. Hope you find the info so you know whether to sit back and wait or to get back on line and order it again!!

GOT GLASS? .......it does a vaporizer good:tup:

When I first got my D20 I did not think that much of it (bearing in mind I had not used many bubblers before, well just a couple actually) but with all the hype around it and people loving It, it made me like it more and more. :love:(Especially from the day I found out that I was packing my solo much to tight!)

This is my attachment configuration for the solo and the D020 and wonder if using an ELB adds a little drag since the diameter of the end of the ELB is much smaller :huh:
