@Anonymous mate to be honest I did read it as no honeycomb disc originally but I was not certain. Standby for some pics but sorry can't do vids atm.
Lack of equipment? Your mobile phone can probably take vids just fine, assuming you have an even vaguely modern one.
The second disc is the one that seems to be creating the whirlpool effect from what I can tell
Yeah, the second disc is a "turbine", a type of splashguard that creates cyclonic flow (and thus throws water in a circle around the tube instead of up towards the mouthpiece, limiting splashback). Could also be considered a "perc", arguably, since it also creates diffusion and moisture conditioning, the two main things percs do, but a turbine is generally used with a "true" perc underneath as they work better when fed a well-aerated mix of gas and water; the same volume of air mixed in works better as lots of little bubbles than as a few larger ones. The lighter and foamier the mix going through them, the faster the spin velocity you can achieve.
Without that turbine that stubby pipe would spray water into your mouth on the clear almsot every time, I bet, especially with that super low volume. Honeycombs get a good, almost effervescent, foam going at higher draw speeds.

On the up side, maybe that "breakdown in communications" also resulted in a lower than intended price?
The price makes sense compared to their other models as it's only a 30mm tube, not much more than an inch in diameter for the metrically-challenged. It's just made from cheaper pieces of glass (as well as being pretty damn small). Still for US$16 in lots of one it's a steal.
