Gonna buy one as my first portable vape ever. I want a vong version so I can take rips with my rig sometimes. Should I get the vong 62 vs 45 body length?

I find that the mouth piece makes for a much better portable experience than without. The lip groove makes it so much more comfortable during use. Keep in mind that the mouth piece can get in the way if your rig has a small opening or a sharp bend just past the glass joint.

I think you will find that the Vapcap is amazing through water and is capable of some dense clouds when paired with concentrates. I use my vapcaps through my water pieces 90% of the time and it never gets old seeing a thick wall of white vapour rising towards me.

So yesterday i forgot my Omnivap in the Car. I have to admit i really missed it during the evening.
Before this, i hadn t even realized how much i like the little thing - probably because it "just works" pretty good.

Have a great Day!

The vapcap really shines in those tight situations. I forgot my torch once, and I just went to the store and got a bic, and it worked great other than the soot.

I've mentioned this before, but you can avoid the soot, by suspending the cap about a 1/2 inch or so above the tip of the yellow flame, with a regular lighter. I get pretty solid rips from a standard lighter as well, just takes a few seconds longer for the click than a torch, and no soot.

I just tried it. Works great with patience! Fuel last about the same or better?

Oh, this just cooled from an overnight soak in the kiln ...

Yeah, it does take a little longer to get the click from a yellow flame, but I also found a more desirable heat level, didn't seem quite as hot as it does when I use a torch, and I am assuming it would be harder to combust using the yellow flame because you are not as likely to overheat it which would be better for public situations (like a bathroom stall etc) and it is much quieter not having the torch hisssss. You do need some patience though, can't say how it compares on fuel consumption, I am also turning the M slower than I would with a torch. I am only using this method to get familiar with it, so if I am in a pinch I can grab a bic. :p The vapor from the flame lighter does seem more pleasant to me. I thought I should add, that I am using the M for my current DV DD

Interested in a vapcap m and my only worry is if these type of device is smooth
I find that you need to figure out how long to draw w/ the carb plugged because if you go past a certain length of time youll get a lungbuster and i dont like coughing up a lung every time I use the VC. So as long as you dont cross that threshold with your draw length, the vapor will be smooth. If youre me itll sometimes happen on accident. its about towing that line of thick hits right before they make you cough. of course if you WANT to cough, you know what to do..

The smallest load I can use that still fills the tip is .04g. It's very loosely filled, with no tamping. I'm almost tempted to spring for an Omni to see if it could work with .02 or less...?
My Ti Woody works good with .02 and I recently discovered I dont even have to set the chamber to the smallest size for it to extract the .02 effectively.

OMNI would definitely do this easily with adjustable depth screen - but any newer Ti tip should do the same. Still think OMNI is worth the additional cost because it is so f'n cool, and swear it vapes just a little better. But, any Ti woody will have the adjustable depth screen, too.

However, as @mccringleberry said above, you don't really need to move the screen (make the chamber smaller) to effectively use less. I do this often when out and about to get a couple small hits and dump before it gets too stinky on exhale. Bonus is that you can give a shake or two in between hits and "stir" the load without even having to open it up. I just let it cool a little past the click, put my finger over the end and shake a couple times. Give it a try. Think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

I routinely load about .015 grams. No grind, just a tiny nug torn from an intact flower.

My screens sandwich a hemp filter and are placed close to the bottom of the chamber, so the uppermost screen is either in the middle position or a bit below it. Any sized chamber will happily accommodate a micrdose.

I LOVE this idea and am definitely going to try a nug tumble. :argh:

Let us know how you like it!

Didn't elaborate much above, but you know how those thicker loads can get a little stinky on exhale when you get deep into hit 3 or go for hit 4. Not very discrete when walking down the street or in another public-y areas. Yeah, I know, but I enjoy vaping even more in areas where I shouldn't. Probably too often, but it tickles my pickle! :lol:

Anyway... if I load less (almost always ground) i can get a couple nice hits after a pre-heat (heat to click, no inhale, cool to click, reheat to click and hit) and the vapor exhale seems less apparent. Of course if you have some killer skunky shit in there, or roast past click, it is still going to be pretty obvious to anyone close. But, if you go lighter and do this right with a little bit of a breeze, no one seems the wiser.

Just be careful getting spotted heating. Think that would definitely freak people out. But if you can duck and heat, then just hit it like it is some sort of e-cig, it's amazing how no one seems to know what you're doing. And, always gives me a thrill when I'm on a fairly crowded street with groups of 3 generations together passing by, or having to circumvent strollers, and keeping my buzz on the whole time. Or, at a large event like a pro baseball game, at a museum or such (outside), or concert. Anxious to see how a @Pipes induction heater in a jacket or cargo pocket will work out for this kind of fun & excitement.

I forgot to mention that I only run ground bud for small amounts, especially in a chamber that isnt set to the smallest size. Trying to do a .015-.02 nug in that size chamber gets me very little performance unless you do half a dozen cycles of nearly invisible hits which uses too much butane. Thats because theres barely any convection taking place at all. The same amount ground up gets me surprisingly good performance and a thick hit on 1 cycle. The majority of herb needs to be in contact with the walls. Maybe this is unique to the Ti tip and not the SS tip?

I like this idea. I bought some CCDs with the intention of creating a hemp sandwich but haven't tried it yet. I have been usually using the full tip filled but not tamped, and I have been (often but not always) emptying into my hand and reloading by sucking it back up after the first or second cycle. If I can fill less and shake it up instead that would be easier than what I have been doing. I will give it a try.
I have been finding a full tip is about right for the level I am usually trying to reach. I might need to do 2 with this method...
