I don't know if you just have much more powerful lungs, but your cyclone seems to work better than mine does, mine has a much narrower cone/cyclone, seems slower to start up and seems to get chuggy sooner...ah the minor differences are to be expected. Nice vid thanks @Roger D
A hot hit style bowl has the holes on the side and none on the bottom. You usually put bubble hash in it and then touch it with a hot glass rod or "glow wand" in order to smoke the hash.
This should not be confused with using a glow wand to smoke flowers. Which uses a standard slide and a glow wand to light the bowl. It is a butane free way to smoke and gets really good flavor but combustion none the less.

Ditto for me. My cyclone's action is more like what you describe than RogerD's vid shows. Maybe there is a special technique?
Sooooooo.....who wants to help me spend some money?
I have it in my head that I NEED a 10mm micro rig. I blame each and every one of you. Anyway I know a lot of folks here have picked up a lot of the offerings from DHGate. I also know that there have been quite a few reviews several pages back...and I plan on going back and reading for retention. While I am doing that though anyone want to throw out some personal favorites? Will be used for concentrates only, if that makes any difference. Thanks!
TL; DR-sell me on a micro rig.
Roger D can you link me to that cyclone piece you have ? Thanks
Thanks Roger D , any chance they have it on dhgate
The planet rig looks the best but the one giant hole perc does "ruin" it in a sense. Still a crazy good nano rig for under $30 my baby cake gets more use though, but the planet looks incredible on the shelf

Yeah I'm more new school with the scientific percs etc so the one hole isn't preferable to me. I like at least a few holes to make it not quite as chuggy but that is all just personal preference stuffI do not dislike the one hole perc, it's good for flavor. I enjoy the old school chug, it hits pretty smooth for the size !

You could probably smooth it out by dropping some glass beads down there. The end of the stem is open, but it's pretty close to the bottom of the can. You just need beads that are slightly too large to fit through the ring-shaped gap formed between the bottom of the stem and base of can, and they'll split up the output of the chuggy single opening into multiple emergent ones. I bet you could find beads of the right size for just a few dollars on eBay or similar.Yeah I'm more new school with the scientific percs etc so the one hole isn't preferable to me.

But you are definitely right, it does hit smooth and the flavor is spot on! Plus the one hole won't get clogged as easily compared to a perc with multiple smaller holes

IMO it looks quite like a macro version of a frit disk.I think this is what you are talking about but I don't know how you would get these into the planet rig. I actually don't see how it would really help even in the video. Pouring marbles into your tube seems like a recipe for disaster

My current favorite is the GB-189 from Yingmin5, but I seem to be the only one here that likes it (maybe one other person here does?) But it is a sidecar with a female joint (piece on far left).
@blankrider try browsing the threads for diffusion beads. I have no personal experience but I understand that they are generally marble like and you put them in the can with the water. They help diffuse the vapor or smoke more than a perc alone.
