^ I was using a torch lighter, as I mentioned early in the post. Also, how would I be able to point straight down into spout with a regular lighter? (it'd burn my thumb) However, it's a pretty cheap lighter, and I keep the flame adjustment on the lowest setting in the interest of conserving...

Okay, after a TON of obstacles and hassles, I finally got to use the vapo-bowl. The set-up is an upright water pipe with water, whose original down-stem was replaced by a 14mm GONG diffuser (fastened on with rubber gasket), into which goes the 14mm vapo-bowl (with steel screen). The herb is...

What is the cleanest/best brand of butane refill fluid? I've narrowed it down to Colibri, Vector, and Lava. Lava claims to be 5x refined.

^ Are the 2 halves of your metal cap put together flush and un-crooked? Place it on a level table; does the "spout" on the top half point diagonally to one side instead of straight up to the ceiling?

^ Are you sure? After I posted that I looked at some pictures on the web, and it seems all of them are a little crooked. Oh and while taking the inner screen out as suggested in this thread, I discovered that the bulge is the edge of the screen that sort of "curls" in between the cap halves...

Just got the 14mm Glass Vapo-Bowl in the mail. Something definitely looks weird about the metal cap. The metal cap has 2 parts (looking at it from the outside). The "top" piece that has the spout where the flame goes, and the "bottom" piece that is just a metal cylinder. Well, if I place the...

Wait that doesn't make sense. The 14mm measurement is the diameter of the BASE of the vapo bowl (the part that goes into the downstem). By looking at pictures, it is clear that the TOP/CONE (bowl) is substantially wider than the base, so it must be more than 14 right? I'm talking about a...

Wow, those honeycomb screens are wild! Every time I see the traditional star/jack shaped screens, I also wonder why no else else thought of replacing (duplicating) mesh metal screens with glass counterparts. It's such a no brainer, and I'm glad someone else thought of it. Anyway, I...

I am very interested in this glass screen you refer to. Are you talking about the typical glass screens generally for pipes that are shaped like a star (I don't see how these would fit on top of the pinches, but maybe over the bottom hole because it's smaller), or are you talking about one that...

It looks like they now carry the 14.5mm as well!! And also shipping to the US is only $2.xx which ends up being a cheaper total cost than AMP. I finally get to order one of these things now! I'm going to order the screen together. Does anyone know what screen size will fit the 14.5? My...

^ Okay, well I still assume the 14.4mm would be a better option, simply because I notice 14.4mm GonG bongs to be much more abundant and cheaper (locally) than 18.8, and I do want to get a piece for the VB eventually. The remaining clincher for the 14.4mm would be whether or not that claim...

I found a site that seems legit that has the 14.4mm Vapobowl in stock (Azarius). The only thing is that you have to send in cash to avoid ridiculous fees. So I'm stuck choosing between the 18.8mm at Avalon Magic Plants, or the 14.4mm at Azarius. If this quote is true, then the 14.4mm is the...

^Well that is the biggest flaw about the Vapobowl. It's going to be a hassle to find the right screen for it, the producer should have just included one in it. How about the replacement screens for the vaporstar, will these fit? Even though these are steel, I have a hunch that eventually...

On a separate note: how big is the hole below the pinches on the Vapobowl? Is it like a regular glass bowl, or is it wide enough for shake and small buds to fall through? What I'm getting at is the possibility of using one of those star-shaped glass screens like with a standard glass piece...

So, to clarify you are suggesting that I place the screen into the adapter such that it rests in the bulbous part in the middle (as if it were just a regular slide). Then, I place the herb on top of the screen, and then I place the Vapobowl ON TOP of the herb? I think this wouldn't work...
