I suspect I'm running too hot. The herb at the end of the tube is getting black. Hits taste toasted from the first one.

I don't have a VVPS, anything I can do?

Are you using the nylon tube? Mine gets dark like that too due to being closer to the heat source. I used extension cords (from the UD site) to slightly lower the temps to perfection (no need for a vvps).

For a short-term solution, try a power strip, hit it as it's warming up, unplug and hit it as temps drop, blow into the heater core before hitting it, hit it faster/harder, don't load so much, just insert the very tip of the SS into the core (not all the way).

If you are using the glass stem, try moving the screen back a bit &/or "just the tip". Hope it helps!

So for the thick clouds, do you guys have to use the WPS adapter to achieve that or is there a technique to how you hit it?

I do not use a VVPS (variable voltage power supply). I just load the stainless steel tip and rip.

I just ordered an Underdog yesterday. I'm looking forward to giving it a go!

This forum (and this thread in particular) really helped me make my decision. I spent a couple of months researching vapes and the Underdog was the one I kept coming back to.

Thanks, Underdog, for having your birthday sale. My ruptured disc thanks you :)

Cleaning my screens for the first time, after several weeks of use. Started to notice a clog and difficulty getting good hits, so I rigged this up to soak just the screens in iso

Pretty simple yet smart cleaning setup you've got there man.. might have to copy that lol.

Hard to say - many people (us included) get 'clouds' just fine with the stock wall-wart.. even with a 6' extension in our case. Play around with different strains (if possible), longer heat up times, etc. The tips Magic9 posted are good suggestions too even though he was referring to them for those running hot they also could apply to you (if inverse). If after trying some of that it's still anemic let us know and we can look at other ideas and options. :2c:

If that's from a Nylon Stem then I'd say it's probably pretty normally that dark after a heavy hit or 3, if glass then you should probably adjust the screen a bit farther back from the heater. Best/easiest way to lower the temp a bit is to add an extension (or more than one) cord to lower your voltage. A DC extension cord I should say, not an AC one.. we have them on the website.

Thank YOU for the business and welcome to the 'pack'. Hope you enjoy the Dog! :cool:

Sequel to this story, once the iso evaporated, there was some nice looking honey oil on the sides and even a dark-greenish waxy build up on the bottom of the shot glass (I used it to soak my Elevape screens a couple times as well). So I scraped a little bit off with a qtip and put it in my nong and was able to share 5 nice hits at 13-13.2v.

I don't know exactly what this is called as it is my first true expirment with conectrates aside from for edibles (and revaping my T1's cap wax build up in my early days and once or twice scraping Solo stems to vape in LSV but not too successfuly), but I think it may become my new reclaim system for all my convection vape screens

Guess who has two thumbs and just pulled 40 more Birthday Vapes off the test bench?

That's right, it's me! :tup::tup:

Alright it's Saturday night so I'm going to cut out early and call it a short (9hr) work day.

Same as the last couple weeks we'll be taking our semi-weekend Sunday and Monday but will still ship packages Monday. We'll be away from messages and email for the most part during those two days but will try to answer truly urgent ones should we get any.

::edited to add:

Heya @Snappo - I finally got that custom AromaDog done for you, looks like your Olive Dogs but has a solid copper core for max heat transfer efficiency. Works really, really well! :-)
