Cheap High Quality Bubbler

pigfoot

Dabs are vapor too!
I am new to FC (although I read quite a lot already) I am a joint smoker and I've decided to pick up the E-nano, I've never tried a bubbler, but would like to, what is a good entry-level bubbler (Money is not that much an issue, but I do not want to spend too much)?

Thanks

Sorry for my English, I know it is pretty bad but I am spanish.

Your English is fine, welcome! Any of the D020 "family" would be great.

Get Kathy's recycler. It doesn't vortex either, but it costs only half as much to find that out. :lmao:

In fact, if someone can point me to a cheap high quality recycler that actually vortexes.....:love:

I am starting to wonder if it even exists at below 100.

I'm with you Syrupy,I dont think one really exists for under 150-200 and they are the cheapest and IMO the ones I see are meh,why bother. Im saving my $$ for a good one but i maybe saving for quite a while with the numbers Im seeing. I guess we will have to wait until the glowers in China get it down and from there we will be smiling on what we paid. Patience my friend,although with GAS there isnt any for most of us I see, including me.

I started a post about this - doesn't seem there is anything under $150 that vortexes. I believe Cory Glass is the only person making something 'affordable' that has a true vortex action. There are a few over on iOffer for the $150 price range, but I don't hear a lot about their performance.

There must be a lot of physics behind getting a decent vortex, because so few recyclers seem to get it right. Do folks like Kathy and Sunshine have direct control over their blowers, or is it all outsourced on top of outsourced? It seems like if someone could slip the PTB a function vid and some pics of a recycler that actually vortexes.... well, many of the dhgate vendors seem very into the imitation being flattery thing... they just need the right source material to copy. ;)

If I hit my CGD Incycler hard enough and without a GonG I can actually see single drops spiraling upward the mouthpiece.
This is how you vortex. :D

both of my kathy recyclers vortex just fine, it's just a tiny vortex bulb you can see it clearly in these vids... the 14mm is noticeably better than the 10mm (first vid)



:rockon: just checked my tracking and the side car HC/turbine is out for delivery!

Well while I sit here trying to wait patiently for my Kathy recyclers I realized that I should have added a 14mm drop down but im really not into waiting weeks for it again. Anyone know of a good American site for cheap drop downs? I've called all my lhs and they think im crazy and have never heard of such a thing lol

Your english is fine. Get a D020-W from Sunshinestore its perfect for the nano as a starter.

Some sad news, slapped my TKO off my desk today and watched it explode. Probably going with the birthday cake rig to replace it since it's similar but also different, anyone have one?

Got the HC/turbine sidecar :tup:... When I saw the package...I thought for sure I was going to be opening a broken piece of glass :goon:. The box looked like an elephant had stepped on it, and was pretty smashed up, but to my surprise the glass still made it through in one piece!! :freak: whew! Double bubble wrap saved the day.

I like it, it's small like the D020, heavily diffuses when not restricted, and the top disk offers some turbine action. The downstem is pretty close to the body, but the 18/14 female adapter I use raises the profile enough that the lotus will have clearance. Over all pretty happy with it, looks pretty well made. It's the first blue glass accent they have sent me. All others have been clear or green. Here are some pics and vid...

I thought the same with mine when it arrived. The box looked too narrow for the sidecar mouthpiece and my box was smashed round.




do you get much splash back with that one?

I can fill mine with too much water and hit it hard and don't get any. The direction of the turbine splashes away from the mouthpiece which I believe helps.

Today I got the GB 221 from Yingmin5. It arrived packed in bubble wrap only, maybe 7 layers? 9 days from China. So far so good. Got it unpacked, the top of the dome is uneven, with a chip on the bottom. The nail is only partially formed.

Don't care about the nail, but I might use the dome. I messaged him, using the "Dear friend" language that they like. I'm sure he'll replace it, but......the one I got has the MP angled more vertical than the pic, so it puts a nail right in front of one's nose. :rolleyes:

The glass seems thick, the construction is good, no bubbles or obvious flaws. With the water just above the perc, it purrs nicely, I like the draw. However, even with a nail in place, a moderate draw results in a little bit of spray on the lips. Overall, not for me, I already passed it on.
