    Good idea for a whip filter...

    The original thread has been archived, so I had to start a new one to post some new insight. My problem was the silicone whip I've been using, developing a strong odor within a week of moderate use. The best suggestion I got was to use cotton as a filter. This worked well. It took some trial...

    Stinky silicone whip...

    So the cotton goes inside the end of the tube, on the end that connects to the glass elbow piece? And then I just tweeze it out when it needs replaced? If that helps with the odor problem, I am going to be super stoked. Part of the appeal of vaping to me is eliminating as much odor as possible...

    Stinky silicone whip...

    Awesome. I'm just looking to deodorize. I read a bit of info about the silicone tubing on here, but never did I realize it would develop such a stink so quickly. People are on here talking about how to harvest resin out of the stuff, and I am wondering how they managed to deal with the smell...

    Stinky silicone whip...

    How long do you suggest I soak it? I usually just leave glass pieces in ISO overnight, but that seems excessive for silicone. I want to make this last as long as I can, and if I have to do a weekly ISO soak I imagine that would kill it pretty quickly.

    Stinky silicone whip...

    So I just upgraded the stock vinyl whip hose that came with my V-Tower. I am now using silicone tubing. It solved the flexibility and length issues I had with the stock whip, but now I have a new problem. The silicone stinks. I've only been using it for about 5 days now, and the hose smells...

    Eliminating the elbow...

    Ugh, metric. :P is 18mm the standard for a stock Arizer cyclone bowl? is 14mm the same as a 5/16 ID tubing? the actual part seems like what I need. Da Buddha sells one thats a 19mm, but they don't specify the diameter of the end piece that goes into the tube. Since when did this get all...

    Sourcing silicone tubing...

    So the few local brewer stores I called do carry silicone tubing, but apparently nothing small enough for my needs. It seems these vapos are one of the few consumer products that would call for such an item, thus making it inaccessible in real life. I ended up purchasing 10' of it from an online...

    Eliminating the elbow...

    Yup, I've been slogging my way through it. I don't wanna get too trick with this yet, and I'd prefer to not purchase anything off of eBay. Just looking for a simple piece that is compatible. Arizer doesn't offer much in the way of specs, and their accessories are limited. My problem seems like...

    Eliminating the elbow...

    So I got an Arizer V-Tower, and it came with a cracked elbow piece. I'm working of getting that sorted out, but in the meantime, I think my unit needs some slight mods. I've ordered silicone tubing to replace the stock stiff vinyl tubing, so I'm sure that will take some strain off the elbow...

    Sourcing silicone tubing...

    Good lead, I'll follow up on that. The glass pieces I have require 5/16 ID evidently, but that doesn't seem unreasonable.

    Sourcing silicone tubing...

    Yeah that's exactly what I thought. I didn't know if there was some kind of retail outlet that would carry it for a purpose I'm not thinking of. Restaurant supply, etc. Oh well, guess I have to drop like 25 bucks or more just to upgrade the whip. Drag. Thanks for the reply.

    Sourcing silicone tubing...

    I am on a tight budget, and want to upgrade from the stock vinyl tube that is the default Arizer whip. I intend to use silicone, and so far I haven't been able to find a physical retail source for it. Online is prohibitively expensive, as shipping triples the price of the product if you buy in...

    Cracked elbow glass on my Arizer whip...

    Sorry in advance if this is the wrong sub-forum. This is my first post here. Somewhat new to vaping. Got my first desktop unit with an Arizer V-Tower. Bought it from a reputable major online retailer, not eBay or anything like that. The elbow part of the whip was cracked right out of the box...
