Cheap High Quality Bubbler

Hey @exit: So regarding the new Kathy recycler,

http://www.dhgate.com/product/new-c...h-18-8mm/202952796.html#myaccount_left-1-null

I love mine. Huge steal for 30 bucks. The chamber vortexes a little bit, and I expect I'll get it to perform better with practice (this is my first recycler) but the percolation in the main chamber is something else! It doesn't so much percolate as it slaps the vapor around, giving it a real drubbing. I know over percolation is supposed to kill flavor but it doesn't seem to in the least. The vapor tastes quite good and you get this spectacular, almost violent water show right before your eyes. It's quite loud, btw, especially when clearing it and I have gotten some water in my mouth as well, so clearly water level is of utmost importance. But all in all this piece rocks! The glass is much thicker than the spiral perc bubbler

I got from her last month. It's very solid, heavy base, low center of gravity, yet seems quite little and almost cute in person. Pairs exceptionally well with the Davinci Ascent, BTW, a piece I had given up on using with water pipes until now. So for the money I bet you will like it. I am much more impressed with this than with my first Kathy purchase (the spiral bubbler) and this give me hope of getting some nice pieces made out of reasonably substantial glass from China in the future.

I would also appreciate any water level tips from others who recently rec'd the piece. I think I am narrowing it down to about 3/4 inch above the perc but perhaps I am doing it all wrong (first recycler!)

Video video video Is there any out there already?

Could only get it to vortex when clearing around the :26 second mark.

I kept adding more and more water after this, about half full I gave up on trying to get it to vortex while hitting. But I'm using the e-nano, so the EVO or some other less restricted vaporizer might have better luck. I was pulling as hard as I could in the video, :D

Been using the other new bubbler more, if you barely pull too hard with this one ^^, you easily suck water in. And that sucks. :(

Who is ordering the Atomic Per??? It is a stock photo from another website so I'm curious to how close it is to the image.

This is 14mm, decent piece but the inline is a tad high. It comes a bit bigger and the inline is halfway up the can.

Edit: search alina in this thread for more discussion

That's good to know. Was just going of what someone had posted in the alina store listing.

@Tweak thanks for the vid, I think that's the best looking of the recyclers so far imo.

Here's a video of the Recycler Ashcatcher from Kathy. http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/new-glass-bubbler-glass-water-pipe-glass/194444766.html

In the video , it is wobbly partly because of the surface it was sitting on and partly because of the tubing. It sits flat but it is tippy I think I need some help from @Ratchett with a couple of stands.

Thanks @Tweak . I think we are asking a little much for a significant vortex on a $30 piece but it was worth a shot. Getting a vortex on the return seems to be an easier task.
If it's got a vortex chamber it should atleast vortex a little.. Maybe it does! Possibly with the right balance or water and inhale speed it could work. It'd be a shame to have the vortex chamber for nothing :lol:

My ratchet recycler came from kathy - broken on arrival :(

A significant chip on the base, and the join between the vortex chamber and main can has a crack all the way through it - as in you can separate them with a little pressure... And there's a hole there too :(

Waiting on kathy to get back to me about shipping out a replacement...

Also still trying to sort out a replacement from clean clear glass for the dodgey recycler they sent me - I'm not having much luck with the china recyclers :(

Funny story, so anyone remember the 2 d020-d's i got? well one was for a friend.. gave it to him in bubble wrap, when he gets home he tells me he broke it trying to get it out of the bubble wrap! that has to be record timing for breaking a bong.

I personally don't see the appeal in the DO20s? They look ugly as all hell. I know they are popular but damn.. There are some other ones that look excellent though!

$28 delivered for the D020 is why!
D020-D is only $34 for a larger piece.
OK it's not a heady piece for more $!
That's is why their popular!
Price and function = attraction

Art and price are a different tread!

My sidecar arrived today.
The perc is a little high and the stem is off to the right a fair bit.
But hey for $40 it's solid, looks good and works pretty well.
