When I occasionally combust, I clean thoroughly in everclear, then I vape a bit of peppermint leaf

Coconut milk. You just paid me back and then some for the tip I gave you. I never would have thought about coconut milk. That's a great choice for so many reasons! Thanks for that one!
Happy Vaping!

Making the plunge with a Dynavap M RosiuM, Wenge DynaStash and Spares kit. Might be after Xmas now, but i'm finally going to get one sorted. Still wondering which torch i should get, but i'll figure that out at some point.
the stems on this thread are absolutely incredible! Hope to contact one of you guys in the future for a new body.

Interesting, how do you like the peppermint? I might have to try.
I give mine a smack too.
Glad to hear you are having some success, when I get it just right the dyna puts a smile on my dial.
Happy spinning.

Have you ever tried adding a drop of high quality peppermint essential oil to your water piece? It is extremely soothing for the respiratory system, but also that is a psychoactive effect the peppermint increases alertness and concentration and mental focus.Interesting, how do you like the peppermint? I might have to try.
It can really perk up your high. Inhaling peppermint oil increases concentration by 20%. Most of all though, I experience far less respiratory bother from vaping and a much easier time keeping my airways clean. The essential oil and menthol is carried deep into the lungs with the vapor so it is more than just the addition of peppermint in the water and standard inhalation methods (steam, direct).
Rocky Mountain Oils have amazing peppermint, the USDA organic one in particular is pure as heaven I swear.

Dam this sounds amazing. Definitely want to try this

Huge mistake for new users is to not wait for the cool down click and reheat again. I notice that every time I let a new user try it. Idk if its excitement or just wanting more vapor.Cool down is just important. Sometimes even after a cool down click I let it go longer on a stainless tip as that retains heat longer. Continue playing w a few lighters you'll get it. I tend to go 2 or 3 hits top to my liking.
Didnt realize I was a page behind lol

Peppermint leaf is very menthol-ly tasting. I usually just do one inhalation, to bring the mintyness through the whole vapcap, and cleanse my palate. Never done enough to notice any effects.
If you decide to use essential oil, be sure to get a high quality organic food grade oil, not a fragrance oil.

I flatten mine by pressing them under my metal grinder with full body weight and or roll them under the side of the grinder rollin' pin style. Seems to me the hammer technique might shorten their lifespan a bit.
Also I've soaked my caps in ISO for up to a week with no detectable negative results.

As for flattening the CCD, I'll put mine between two pennies and flatten it that way. Works every time!
As for the infamous soaking of caps in ISO.
Some of you will agree with this obviously, and many of you will not.
I soak the sucker!
Never for more than 30 minutes or so though. I then scrub down the out and inside extremely well, wash it out thoroughly with dishwashing liquid and water and then I'll set that in front of a fan for about another 20 minutes to dry.
I've never had a problem with the bi-metal discs working properly after cleaning it in this manner.
Just make SURE after the ISO it gets washed out THOROUGHLY and DRIED TWICE AS THOROUGHLY!
@StringTheorista and @Alexis thanks for reminding me about peppermint oil!
People forget that because these are vaporizers you can vaporize more than just happy herb. Your favorite strain is not the only thing that can provide useful and effective aromatherapy. LOL
And peppermint is a great one because it has lots of positive qualities!
In regards to the heating and cooling clicks.
Because there are TWO metal discs crimped into that cap and they CAN and usually DO click somewhat distinctively and separately, people treat the second heat up click as the respect the click point.
That is incorrect!
That second disc is simply a BACKUP in case the first FAILS to work.
It is that FIRST heat up click that you should be paying attention to for the time to OFFICIALLY remove the heat from your cap!
I treat it the OPPOSITE in the other direction.
I wait until I have heard the second cool down click before removing from the heat sink, If I'm just cooling it down.
I cool down to the first cool down click if I'm fixing to do another cycle.
If anything, the second heat up click is the EXTRA second or two BEYOND the respect the click point that is always referred to.
If you go beyond THAT, you're now in the extreme danger zone for combustion and it's one of the major reasons why so many people accidentally combust and never saw it coming.
I'm fixing to get better acquainted with some purple Hindu Kush,
or if you're from Oregon, Jager!
Happy Vaping!

I used to do the same when I first started using dynavaps. I learned better quickly.
As for the first click being quieter than the second, it varies from cap to cap. One of my shadow M tips it's like that. That first heat up click is actually the loud one and the secondary one is actually softer. It's opposite on my titanium tip and sounds the way yours does. Softer first click louder second click.
Happy Vaping!

Well, it may depend on other parameters – I'm not new to DV, I bought my M18 1½ years ago and now exclusively use an Omni XL, although I should say that I was always listening to the „main-click“ (I often don't even hear the first one or they happen at almost the same time). Haven't combusted in a year or so, although I do play with going past the click for a second or second and a half (unless I'm heating the very bottom of the cap).
Just saying. :-)

It's more like, George is always working on SOMETHING. If it's ready, it's ready. If it isn't, it isn't.
As a businessman, I'm sure once something new he's working on is ready he'll try to make it coincide with an upcoming promotion. But as for a set date each year, I have not noticed such.
I have heard of a couple of things that he is working on, that I think people will find interesting and appealing.
I don't work for dynavap and have signed no nda's, but I DO respect his privacy, and his desire to keep certain R&D quiet until he is ready to release, so I won't discuss any of those things in detail.
I will say, I think people will be pretty impressed in the upcoming months, however.
Happy Vaping!

I think the time has arrived for the condenser to be upgraded to something with a bigger surface area

Faaaaamous last worrrrrds.
AND here's why!
Half of my accidental combusts have come from pushing the envelope beyond the click.
The other half..........
*crickets chirping*
*more crickets chirping*
Dude, what were we talking about, again?
Happy Vaping!

@thejackalsmark coming from a construction background this has all been very alien to me and I've said in the past at some point in time this creative streak may come to a stop.
I watched the video back and it put a smile on my face, thank you.
If the ideas don't keep coming at the rate they have been so be it.
The product line I have now is enough to throw a lot of potential customers into confusion and I'm happy with that.
The other great thing is taking the designs customers come up with and turning them into reality.
I love the 'do you think you could' messages.
@cybrguy and @mucsusn thank you, I love my job.
@RogueGuy nothing better than seeing my work in other peoples pictures, they are always greatly appreciated.
I'm pleased you are enjoying the longer no carb design.
Twists are so tactile and the spin just seems to come naturally. It feels good to bring a shape from woodworking history into the modern world of vaping.

@StringTheorista I'll try straight leaf I reckon.
@Alexis so you use the peppermint to help clear out your lungs?
@juanavape I only give it a gentle smack.
