Cheap High Quality Bubbler

I came across this one, but all the photos seem to have the mouthpiece and the bowl in the wrong places.

That base looks thin.
What is in the wrong place?
MP should where bowl is place and vice versa.
Edit: @little maggie
With that style of perc it cannot function like that. If it was an inline perc, it would.work.
This works this way:

Gotta say that's pretty funny. I wanna see ya hit it this way the first time... :lol:

Seeing that the price is the same and the UFO comes with more accessories (while you may toss the silicone, the whip adapter and mouthpiece are useful) the only reason I can think one may prefer this is if you dislike the heavy glass Steven uses.

I can't really tell if the can is smaller...

Ok I'm confused. I don't have great visual spatial skills. But the way it's laid out seems similar to my FC mod.

In the original picture, if you were to hit it from the mouthpiece, you would pull water up into your mouth. You'd be inhaling, and pulling water into the perc, which would go up the downstem, up into your mouth.

Air is supposed to go down the stem into the perc, not the other way.

On the FC Mod like the UFO, you put the mouthpiece in the joint that stands outside the can, rather than the joint on top of the can. You want the vapor to come down from the bowl on top and enter the water through the perc. It then bubbles up into the can where your mouthpiece draws the vapor from the can into your lungs.

That is the opposite of the way it is shown in that piece.

I got my FC Mod from steven and it came in perfect condition. I love it. Wait and see before you buy something else.
Do you mind sharing when you ordered and how long it took you to receive your item? I guess that depends on location as well. From what I've seen, the FC-187 V2 is widely regarded as one of the best China glass, but the latest posts for the past couple pages about the QC from Steven has been causing me some concern, but perhaps I should just be patient and see how my piece turns out before buying another one. I'm just eager to get a FC series glass!

I would pick up something with a new perc if I were you. Another matrix bubbler is likely to function similarly. FC UFO or maybe the FC MOD which has matrix and Showerhead percs
I did eye both of those for awhile and, although they seem like pretty cool/customizable pieces, I think I prefer the one piece glass for now. Maybe down the line when I build more of a collection, I'll consider the FC UFO and FC MOD, but I definitely appreciate the suggestions! In fact, the recyclers that were recently shared have sparked an interest in adding one as my next glass purchase.

Thanks again FC peeps! You guys and gals are always awesome sharing all that knowledge! :science:

I ordered in December. I know he's hit or miss but unless you want a second water device you might as well wait.

Also, could someone tell me if there is any use for the domes that come with most of the water devices.

... you could always rig up a 'hydra-stand' with an inverted male jointed bowl.. or use same idea to keep your ELB's in ??

... with the female jointed domes you could rig up something to hold GonG's / stems ??

I finally got myself an enail and without considering the effect it would have on the balance of my Hamm mini sputnik recycler put it on the drop down and "MAN DOWN!!!!", lost my daily driver. Anyone wanna suggest me an oil piece with a nice hefty base for use with an enail?

I'm considering the FC-710 but would like some options.

That piece is awesome (and on my list) but there's two problems:

1. I already have a FTK as my "large" piece and a D-cycler so it's too similar to what I already have IMO.

2. I prefer a smaller piece as a daily driver with larger ones for proportionately larger dabs.
How stable does it need to be? Most of the smaller pieces due tend to fall over more easily but they usually need a helping hand or nudge.

After over 20 pieces ordered from China, the first I ordered, the FC-710, is still my go to daily driver and the one I use the most. It's best in flavour, efficiency, smoothness and ease of pull. Probably one of more recommended pieces for dabbing on here and the /r/chinaglass subreddit. I find it less tipsy than the original BatesxWorm piece and pretty stable overall, would probably only be an issue with a heavy nail and and extended dropdown. It even survived a 2 foot drop to the floor, the dropdown got the worse of the impact and broke but I was still surprised.

This one is great too and I reviewed it a few pages back, doesn't need much to tip over though so you need to be careful with it.

FC-710 it is. Seems like the most radically unique perc design for dabbing.

I have 9 or 10 pieces in my cart!

I want them but I don't need however I want them!

I have a few pieces in my cart but soooooo many accessories, 3 different quartz enail designs, drop downs, katana carb cap, kukri knife carb cap and yet it's still all cheaper than buying a single piece of American glass. Thanks to this thread and my Chinese buddies, I can have my glass and feed it tons of oil.

Got my FC-201 in the mail today.(Well technically I flagged it down at distribution to save time on missing it while I was at work!) Looks and functions pretty good, airflow nonrestrictive, and zero drag, all the slits fire even at the slightest pull.

Aside from some tiny bubbles where the female joint meets the can, everything is pretty flawless and working as intended. Don't see any reason to get it exchanged over some tiny bubbles.

Hoping to put it to good use after work!

a question for those in the glass knowledge know how zone. scenario- an older person that wants to experience water conditioned vapor through a water piece but does not have lung capacity to make some glass pieces work. does anyone know of such a piece at DHgate that will condition vapor and be easy to pull a vapor hit through ( an assisted diffusion like a vortex piece maybe??) . Also, I'm thinking maybe the rattle can with the little ball in there would not require much effort...
I use the do20-D and that thing needs "a power lung" and I even half lip the mouthpiece with my mouth to make more draw pressure during the inhale.

any help is appreciated and thank you very much!

I like that. I wish it was larger though.
My next piece is the ONLY TRUE RETI PERC I have seen on DHGATE! It's a must have for my collection.

My buddy just got this last night. It looks clean. I have so many matrix peices but I like this base.

I like the size of the FC-201. Almost like a beer can/bottle size. Perfect for picking up and holding. Will have to be careful in case it tips over but at $39 it won't be too painful if it breaks, the only painful process is the wait on shipping, using dhgate and the possibility of getting a really flawed piece, but at about 9 days from order to arrival, it ain't bad. It's smaller and more convenient to use with my UD than my 12" roortech beaker for sure.

CCG is making their leaking FTK right, it took photos and 2 videos (it is a hard leak to see) sent to them but they're replacing the piece. Even suggested I try to find a shop that might be able to fix the leak in this one when I offered to destroy it.

I have the Katana and kukhri dabbers on the way so I'll let you know how they are and post pics when they get here. I'll be using them with the dualiti knockoff.

Maybe use some kind of aquarium adhesive?

IME vortex pieces and the FC710 (with the little ball) require a pretty good draw to get started, though they aren't too bad once everything is going in the right direction. Could see this being a problem for your elderly friend.

You'll probably be best off with something that has very little diffusion and a bigger hole(s). So instead of a matrix style perc, or what is sometimes referred to as a "tire" perc on DHGate, something like the FC UFO that has wider slits, or something that is wide open. Wide open as in just a straight open tube into the can that would be submerged in a little water. I've seen a few of these posted here and there recently, but can't recall numbers.

Smaller volume is probably better, but more importantly (especially if the user doesn't mind taking two draws on the glass for one hit) is something that can "bubble" or filter, with very low water level. Generally, the more water you have to go through, the more draw it will take. Same for restricted or intricate diffusion.

What kind of vape will be on it? Restriction in its draw will have an impact, too.

Depending on what type of vape, a simple PNWT type bubbler might be best. They don't generally take too much of a draw to use, though they also don't offer too much cooling or moisture.
