the motherboard is a major component, but is certainly not the whole thing. It's kinda one of three core pieces, along with the CPU(s) and peripherals (lately more and more of the necessary peripherals are showing up on mobo's, like integrated video). If you're technically inclined you can...

hmmm, I'd go ask in the vripmaster thread... I haven't had the same issue at all, and my understanding was that this was the food-safe/heat-safe silicone, and should be 100% safe for use up to around 600f, and should last for years... Perhaps I'm mistaken, but you might want to ask in their...

I'd be hesitant to give anyone advice on this if they have experienced it before, it's too personal of a decision, and you already know, in general, what to expect. As someone who once took a lot of the stuff, and hasn't for 15+ years, the idea of trying it again kinda scares the crap outta me...

I predominantly vape, but I certainly have no qualms smoking. New batches need to get sampled with a flame, gotta see how they burn, how they feel, and the subtle flavors that come out with combustion. Passing a doobs around a campfire with a group of friends. The space cruise where you don't...

growing techniques make a big difference in end product, but strain is as, if not more, influential. Think of strain as the baseline for pretty much everything about the plant, and then the technique will just high-lite aspects of it more than others. I regularly see people misunderstand, and...

First off, to label something as medical isn't useful because there is no agency enforcing anything, or certification required, anyone can grow some herb, sell it to a dispensary and they can sell it as medical (the reasoning being that it's allowed to be sold under medical laws in those...

just to throw in some extra info, curing, if done properly can increase the potency. That said, you could trim a bud up (take off all the sugar leaves, the ones coated in crystals), stuff them in your SSV/iolite/bong/whatever, and vape away, and you could do the same with non-trim. The first...

hmmm, tort reform made me think my tasty little pastries might be in jeopardy, thank god this is only about the legal system! We've been fucked for so long most people think this perversion is normal.

the programs in maine and montana impress me. Oregon's program seems fairly awesome considering the history. I think by leading the pack ca/co had to learn a lot along the way (and really, oregon had it earlier, but it was never really big news till cali).

Not to mention that by today's standards the volcano is a fairly high price point. It also hasn't really changed much through the years, and the people on this site tend to be the ones staying on the cutting edge of technology :) vriptech is a company that seems to look to the future :)

I have a 15" and an 18" and the 15" is what gets used... Helps that the 18" is a cheap chinese-made piece, and the 15" is a SGW waffle :)

forgive me, because I'm purely grabbing an opportunity to fail at being funny, but almost sounds like: My last dealer got busted for selling to people like me, so I'm looking for someone else I can help get buste... I mean buy from :)

we're kinda hitting the point where I couldn't figure out anymore about it :) I had a correspondence once with a tech from a major ecig manufacturer and they claimed that the coils in the atty were getting hot enough to vape the nic. This was in response to me asking the same thing you did, I...

You don't get them that hot. Nicotine vapes in the upper range of 400's f (think it's like 470 or something, you can look it up though). Devices like the iolite are set at 374f (+/- 5f). THC vapes from ~315-370, then you get CB*'s from 350-400. Anyway, herb vaping is lower temp than ecigs...

I use a heat gun at home, but the people who don't like heat guns really don't like them, so without trying one first, I'd not suggest it. The SSV seems to be one of the best values (and one of the better vapes) you can get for home use, fairly easy to use as well. I also have a vriptech heat...
