Picked a wand up today...and everything is all good!!

There is not as much resistance either when your inhale!I love it...

I noticed the screen that came with the wand was already in it.It has a little dome shape and this one dome is facing upwards?Is it suppose to be facing downward toward the other filter?

Just wondering..

Thanks?

@Canadianguy, I noticed the lessened draw resistance too! Nice!

In regards to the the screen, I've not seen a difference doming it in either direction.

Yeah definitely!With someone with bad lungs,like me,plus smoking cigarettes to,well e cig....big plus for me!About the screen,that's even better.:tup:

I guess you could actually just pack the bottom elbow screen to if you wanted instead of in between the screens..

Yup, keep it like that. It takes longer for the screen to get clogged.

There is a video from 7th floor that shows how to put the wand in (I think it's 7th floor), using two sticks.

So ive had my ExQ for about 3 months, so far ive gotten several mods, Ddave adapter, ssv wand, ssv elbow adapter for the water pipe. Out of all the possible combination for the Q, i keep going back to this setup:

I can usually get 2 bags out of that load at 200-205, and that will usually put me in a good medicated state

Hi guys...how's it going?This is not a big deal but just was wondering about the whip is not holding it's shape near the wand I guess after a while starting to droop?Anyone else?Could put one of my Arizer whip (little stiffer)also I guess I could shorten it in half at leat 18" but like it at the full length and I like the SSV one!I seen a guy in one post had a big hair clip holding it up!

Any ideas appreciated!

Tube ID options are better with the SSV wand and it holds quite a bit of material too. I find the extraction much better just as mentioned by DDave.

Here is a pinch/restriction I created to help get some negative pressure in the chamber. This is in hopes to improve flavor and maybe even boost the extraction some more.

I set it all up with f/f adapter, SSV wand, restriction pinch, heat shield, and a small tire perc bubbler. The results were amazing.

I would also like to mention that this setup is also more friendly with lower temps for mornings and does higher temps even better in the evening. I can get up to 400-410 with no popcorn taste and even extraction. The biggest thing i noticed was that with the F/F screen removed and the elbow screen being the first heat diffuser in the line I got much more cloudy hits and especially true with low temps.

Not every set up will be the same but I was able to mount a hook on the wall behind it. I drape the hose over the hook and you don't have to hold the hose and the mouthpiece. It is a second hand and works great. Like I said not everyone can mount a hook behind their setup. Be creative!

This is what I ended up doing,could be a little ghetto lol but it's a temp fix,just a piece of coat hanger!...thanks for the ideas!

Does anyone know if a Arizer Solo curved glass stem would fit in a DDave 18/18 adapter?

Ah, so it is the SSV tubing? I assume so if you bought the full kit. May get some as I only really use my Q for bags now and the restricter sounds like a good idea.

I would like it a little stiffer lolI'm wondering if I should cut that one of mine in half?Shortning it and i like the Arizer tubing tubing but I'm not sure if it fit's the wand I didn't check and don't want to pull it back out.

Is that custom tubing? can't seem to get it to fit into my wand.

hey man, thats actually the stock mouthpiece with stock tubing. They fit perfectly snug in the SSV wand, and by cutting the tubing short like that, you wont have the problem of the tube not holding its weight.
 
I broke my second cyclone bowl last Friday when I was trying to clean it... Isopropyl alcohol is slippery!

Ordered up a single tuff bowl and it arrived today :D ... It seems like they may have tried to glue the silicone to the glass as there are two spots that were attached to the bowl. I had to work at the silicone to break this adhesion so I could slide it up a little bit as it wouldn't sit correctly on the extreme q and would pop up and break the gong seal.

Back in business!! Woot

Just received my SSV wand after wondering about this for quite a while, but I have to admit that my EQ has been on a shelf for a while after getting a Cloud EVO and GonG stems for a couple of Solos.

A few attempts later, I have to admit that the SSV wand really helps solidify the output in that at lower temps it seems to help give a consistent output more than a thick one, and at the high temps, that thing can unload cannabinoids in a hurry!

I've had a F/F adapter for quite a while that I've used on and off for a specific reason. Even moreso than the stock EQ GonG to whip adapters, I find that adding an elbow screen to the SSV wand creates a situation where the screen is hitting the tapered restriction in the F/F adapter before the glass. Meaning - the GonG pieces are supposed to fit with the tapered surfaces flush making an almost perfect airtight connection; with the screen installed in the front of the wand, the metal of the screen is "bottoming out" in the F/F adapter before the glass parts

It's close enough that on visual inspection it appears ok, but you'll notice it so ever slightly wobbly/loose and ultimately that you're sucking air though making your hit much more airy. This is akin to leaving your thumb off a carb and wondering why its so whispy.

I've noticed that on the stock cyclone bowls, the very end of the elbow adapters (and the SSV wand, for that matter) actually clear the inside of the ground joint and just a bit into the middle area. You can see the metal elbow screen clearly "inside" showing that the innermost part of the gound joint in the cyclone bowl is LARGER than the smallest tapered part of the elbow adapter / SSV wand.

I imagine many of these F/F adapters are made from cheap commercially available pre-ground GonG joints that are then fused together by the glass blower. It seems some of the thicker ones create a situation where the ground part narrows further than thinner ones. Because of that, these thicker adapters have a situation where my metal screen gets caught up before there is a full GonG connection with the elbow.

I like "quality", and to me thicker usually means quality, or at least if I drop it, chances are slightly better it won't shatter into a billion pieces. It seems when I picked these adapters from a LHS before the cool kids were doing it, this ultimately worked against me.

To be safe, I propose a smallest diameter to the requirements of a F/F adapter candidate for those using the metal elbow screens. In this, I mean that we "know" these are "18mm joints", where elsewhere it says it's "really 18.8mm" whereas some places round it up to "19mm", whereas in reality it's the conal area of a range of two diameters.

This means that from the typical ebay/etsy/amazon description we will have no idea if this will be an issue or not and we'll likely have to rely on item feedback and links/reports in this forum. Perhaps just using a stock phrase like "fits EQ elbow screen on SSV wand" on customer feedback or more useful "doesn't fit EQ screen on stock elbow adapter". Of course, these phrases suck and no one will remember them and I'm sure someone can imagine something more catchy.

This isn't a call-to-arms or anything, it's just a perplexing problem I didn't foresee encountering and working at trying to figure it out for the past few hours has left me in a relaxed state to think and write about it ;)

Other than that, does anyone use a different solution for packing the SSV wand? It fits perfectly WITHOUT the metal elbow screen on the end, of course, but then there's no bottom screen / way to ensure it keeps packed. Don't really trust a screen in the F/F adapters, but it does seem to work well with the original cyclone - just a step backwards / gotta really crank up the temp.

Be excellent!
