My quest for a portable I love as much as my nano continues. Or, at least that's the rationale I use to justify my undying VAS. Lately I've been playing with the VapCap - an interesting, inexpensive and pretty efficient butane torch heated vape. It's nice. You should check one out if you're still on the quest for something to carry around in your pocket, too.

BUT..... that's not really what I came to write about. As I say, the VapCap is pretty efficient with the amount required and held in high esteem by many for its miserly quality.

However, the load is about the same as what I usually use for my nano. And, I'm here to tell you that I get MUCH MORE medicated with that load in my nano. It's not even a fair comparison. Plus, ease of use, use with a bubbler, etc, etc is all much better with nano too, of course. Truth be told, I'd have to say it takes twice as many loads in the VapCap to get to the same place as with the nano.

YMMV, but I've been through a good many vapes of my own and tried quite a few more over the past few years. To date, NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING comes close to what I get out of my nano from flavor, to efficiency, to ease of use, to simplicity of maintenance, and a few other pluses. For the price and versatility right out of the box, I still don't think it is possible to do better. At least not in terms of what I'm looking to get out of a vape.

I still use my OG Ver 1 most of the time. Have been rocking it daily for more than 3 years now, and it still continues to blow me away. In that time I had a bad dial (on non detachable cord) - and that took all of 8 days to ship across country, have repaired and retuned and have a new coat of finish put on, and come all the way back across the country to home. My cost? $0! How's that for customer service? Other than that, nothing to worry about other than cleaning glass, keeping my screens clean and in shape, and giving the wood and inside a little loving maintenance every couple months.

I guess there could be a better vape or two out there, but not for me! nano-nano!

so their alot of thing to consider ,i hate to play with new things ?

Dude - it is about the easiest vape to use. You'll be going good with it within the first couple loads. If like most, you'll probably tweak for a little to figure out what you like. But, nano is very versatile so you can probably get it to be how you want it to be. Only one caveat that bothers some but not many. It can be a little tricky at first to get huge clouds out of it without a little practice. It can certainly be done, but may take 10 or 15 loads to get good at. Other than that (and small quibbles like a stiff cord) it's a no brainer. Make sure you get all you need when you order (GonG adapters, spare screens, stand?) to save on shipping and wait times. Skim the thread and check out the Best of thread if it's still around. Everything you need to know is here on FC somewhere.

I created an account on epicvape (you guys are some password nazis, holy crap!) and have a premium walnut kit and a 14mm adjustable gong in my cart.... trying to talk myself out of it but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna pull the trigger. Trying to get a bit more speed/power than what I get from the A-Air and not be so harsh on my batteries.

Alright, bang bang, trigger pulled.

I'm excited to get a little more horsepower in my diet.

The name though. For some reason it doesn't fit it well, IMO. E-Nano tech sounds very plasticy and computery and super small. Wouldn't be surprised to hear you run that unit with your phone like the Crafty. But in actuality the thing is very organic and not all digital.



Also picked up this badboy to go with it:

Think the nando can handle it?

Plasticy? Never really got that out of it. But, google enano for a chuckle. And, that's not the name of the company. That's EpicVape. Not often you'll see it referred to as e-nano, either. Usually just nano.

That piece may work. Not sure because I've never really liked long tubes with vaping. You'll probably need a 45 adapter or something to get to it because the GonG is so close to the tube. nano needs about 2 inches clearance around the joint. Take a look through this thread for many glass suggestions. IMO what works best is bubblers with a dewar joint (recessed on top of can). nano will give you flavor like few others, so less diffusion is usually preferred. More diffusion tends to steal more of your flavor. This and other similar ones are more popular to match with the nano.

yea, I was a little worried about it being close, I think it'll have clearance though, if not, oh well.

I have a little 6 tree perc with a dewar joint I'll use with my air for flavor... this and the nano-tech are gonna be for quick monster hits where I don't have 15 min to chill and puff.

You know, I've never really been all that fond of the name "e-nano" either actually. Mostly just because it doesn't seem to fit and I'm not really sure what it means. Does the e just stand for epic? Never thought of that until now but it seems obvious now and makes more sense, but still.

If the quality of the build and materials is as good as I'm hearing, this is going to be a product I want to recommend to others.

However, I'll be saying, "You gotta come check out my new log vape, it's Walnut!"... Rather than, "Aw man, come puff on my e-nano", because, like I said... e-nano conjures images of like, a tiny vape-pen or something.

IDK, I'm not in marketing. Just my opinion as a consumer.

You could try saying "You gotta come check out my new log vape, it's an E-Nano!"

To me without any pre-text, the name "E-Nano" implies something that is small and high-tech.

Just ordered up a J-Hook, and my friend uses one for his Nano all the time, and it works beautifully. You barely feel the vapor, then, BOOM. Cloud city.

Just ordered this, super cheap and best price I could find, plus free shipping, so if I remember, I'll let you guys know how it is when it arrives...Cuz I know you guys are always looking for new ways to use your Nano.

I dunno..... I'm kind of with @Vaponly on this one. I always just refer to it as the nano (no e) which I take as small, but powerful for its size. Plus, if you're old enough to remember Mork from Ork and nanu, nanu it's kind of fun to say "nano nano". Whatever... a rose by any other name and all of that. Or maybe more appropriately, a nano by any other name would still rock your world with tasty vapor from just a bit of material. ;)

Good call. I almost always use a j-hook if going dry. It's kind of weird.... the nano does look mighty fine sitting upright on the table, but always looks better to me inverted when in use. Could just be conditioning from using mine on a bubbler so much, but looks and feels cooler to me when she's ass up. So, a bit better (and sexier) on a j-hook than a strait stem IMO. Plus, depending on your j-hook I think the vapor has a little more space to swirl around in to cool and blend. So not as hot, even at higher temps and the hit seems smoother when mixed if that makes sense. This is my favorite way to go a little lower temp and get all the flavor I can (especially when trying out a new strain), or with hash/concentrates.

Not nearly enough pics on this thread these days in my opinion, so excuse me for a couple reposts from way back there.

Since I Morked, a rare pic of him turning the Fonz on to the wonders of vaporizing MJ. You have to really dig through the Happy Days DVD collection to find this one. :lol:

Mork was the man. Still have the old action figure with the little pull-string that made him say things like "Shazbot don't look at me that way".

it's kind of fun to say "nano nano".

Great! Now I'll be walking around and saying it every time I get medicated. :doh:

My wife thanks you for making me just a little more irritating than I already was... :freak:

You lucky dog!! Think you got me back for the nano, nano. Now I feel compelled to pick up a Mork action figure on ebay! I remember younger siblings of friends having these, but I was too cool for dolls... er I mean action figures, when Mork was a big hit.

Does the wife vape, too? Guarantee if she does she'll be nano nano -ing right along with you soon. My girlfriend used to hate that. But now she'll often greet me with "nano, nano" when I walk in the door at her place. Kind of works for me too, because when I hear that I know she's already warmed it up without me calling to remind her. :D

And if the wife doesn't vape (yet), might be easier to get her to give it a try. Nothing solves minor annoyances like someone nano-ing all over the place like a few tasty hits! Shazbot!

Mine is in pretty rough shape, not collectors grade. But it holds alot of sentimental value.

Does the wife vape, too?

No, unfortunately she has one of THOSE kind of jobs lol.

Nice! That's kind of like having a human wemo (link).

One of the many things I love about the Nano. It seldom leaves me saying SHAZBOT!

Human wemo... LMAO!! Don't think I'm going to share that one with her, though.

For the record, that's nano #2 at her place so it is usually off during the week and on most of the weekend. My #1 nano (and #1 GF, too :lol:) stays on pretty much all the time unless I'm planning on being away from her for more than 24 hours or getting ready for bi/tri-monthly cleanup.

On the job thing... fortunately I'm not in that situation anymore, but when I have been in the past QuickFix synthetic has always pulled me through. 7 for 7 over about a 10 year period with that. Other methods left me too light on the stuff you're supposed to have in there, and ended up with QF for retests anyway.

Not suggesting she endanger her livelihood, but good info to know if she, you or anyone else needs it. Forget all the pills, drinks, gulping vinegar, water loading and all the rest of it. Subbing is the way to go whether you use synthetic or someone else's clean golden nectar. QF is just the cheapest, easiest to get online, proven solution. Think there is a thread around here somewhere with more info, plenty on the interwebs or feel free to pm me for more info.

10 years? Now that is some solid performance! If I am ever in the position again, I will definitely grab some.

Got in a bit of troubled when I popped hot on a wiz quiz several decades ago. Luckily due to my illustrious position as "that weird art guy" the boss kind made things work for me. Even got a FAT raise for agreeing to go to diversion rather than jumping ship and swimming to Ad Agency Island(tm).

They do hair testing and knowing her, she would never take the chance in the first place.

UGH! The dreaded hair testing! Hope I never find myself in that situation.

My folks were such big Mork & Mindy fans they waited while my mom was in labor with me till after it was over to head to the hospital to pop me out.

So, you ought to be down to go with the nano nano thing, too. Well... if you're over that that is. If not, maybe you should have got a UD? :D JUST KIDDING!!!

That's some serious dedication to a sitcom, but I get it. Hell.. that was pre beta-max! So nice (and amazing) I can now pull up my cable box DVR on my cell phone and record something I didn't even know I wasn't going to be home for 20 minutes earlier. Great story, though. I don't want you to out your true identity, but they didn't name you Mork did they? Or, is it Mindy?
