Looks like they got it right! Thank god, I won't be getting rid of my hydrabomb because I freaking love it, the original is nice.. But it will be nice to know that if it does break I can still get a similarly fuctioning piece! Looks great man. I'm waiting on my FC-MP. Will be my first China hydra tube.

Thanks man just a cheapo piece I don't have to worry about breaking. They kinda messed up a bit though , it works well but the can and mp need to be raised about 2-4inches as you get some splash during inhale towards the mp tube. Seems like a simple fix for them. The percs Fire up nicely though .

Right on man, I don't buy expensive glass often. I'm from so cal so I used to be able to get higher quality stuff for cheaper than usual but now being on the east coast I usually go China. I got a great deal on my Evo and hydrabomb so that's why I have the real one haha. If it breaks I probably would have to go with this.. I'm glad the perc fires well, on my hydrabomb the water can splash in the MP a tiny bit if the water is anywhere but just covering the whole perc. But it doesn't splash at all if you fill right, adding and inch would be cool for the dhgate version, and even give it something over the hydrabomb because it could use an extra 1/2 inch in the can IMO.

Hey guys,

I got my FC 187 with sidecar from Steven and it's so nice! It's honestly flawless, I have not 1 bad thing to say about it! It works sooo well with my Extreme Q and with @DDave mod :brow:
I'd upload pics of it but it has a label im not sure if I'm allowed aka forum rules?
But damn this is my main glass piece right now and it hits soo good!!
I got a male quartz banger for it too ;)

What would you guys say is a really good oil rig? I saw the FC 710 and it's decent. I like smaller concentrate rigs possibly with a recycler? Or would that rob me of some of the flavor?
You guys have been amazing and iv spent a shit ton of money on vapes since I joined this forum haha :rolleyes:
Then I discovered dhgate... :doh: all I want to do is buy stuff lol

Glad to see you got it and are enjoying it. Fun & functional piece, eh?

Easiest label removal I know of - and thanks to those in this thread for it, especially you @Stu ! - get yourself some simple green concentrate. Mix 1:1 with water. Soak overnight. Wipe off label! My first wash went just like this. Still a "shadow" of label you can see when light hits it just right. Will have to do another soak and see if it goes, but already used the last batch for cleaning. And, the shit cleans really well too!

Agree with other suggestion... FC710 or D-cycler. They're very different, but love both. IMO of you love the flavor of your concentrates and like big wallops, get the 710. Like to watch the recycler drain and want to knock the flavor down just a bit, get the D-cycler. Really can't go wrong with either and would probably only notice flavor differences using them side by side (or same day at least).

Looks like my yingmin shipment went back to China...again.
Anyone know a seller with some good can type pieces that will actually deliver to the west coast US?
I went with a gb-224 http://www.dhgate.com/product/new-two-function-glass-bong-glass-smoking/199385900.html and GB-187-S http://www.dhgate.com/product/hot-sell-the-newest-glass-bong-glass-smoking/229344799.html but can't get it delivered.
Any suggestions for a better seller with similar pieces? Need something for my enano that doesn't put the vape right in my face.

Yeah man the FC 187 I got is awesome it's my new favorite glass piece :)
It's honestly flawless, not one thing to complain about! I was actually pretty surprised when I got it, nice thick glass and decent sized can :brow: rips really nice!

I don't mind the label on it actually, I appreciate you suggesting some tips to remove it but I like it! All and all great piece and I'm glad I listened to you man :tup:

I can't see myself wanting to get another glass piece for vapor as I'm liking this one a lot right now. I think it pairs real nice with my Extreme Q! I get crazy hits from it lol
As far as the concentrate rig, the d cycler looks pretty sweet! It says it's 22 cm in height which is pretty similar to my 187

Hi, I'm just looking for an info, maybe some atomic perc owner could reply to me:

Do you fill with water both the perc chamber and the bottom chamber? (I only fill the perc chamber...)

Does anyone have any opinion on the upgraded, new, bigger d-cycler from CCG? I realize thicker isn't always better and I actually prefer smaller pieces so I don't know if I should go for the newest or stick to the original. It seems like there's two different originals as well (older one with the most reviews and another with a logo and appears to be a bit bigger). I'm not really a fan of the logos and also don't like how the upgraded version doesn't appear to be sandblasted on the joint, but I'm sure that CCG would be willing to customize whatever I choose after reading some of the experiences others have had here.

I guess my biggest question is, if you have one of the d-cyclers above, what are your pros/cons, wish-it-had-xyz list?

That thicker one looks extremely good to me. Love the huge base for E Nails and vapes attached.

Also, different topic but my HFY glass Stemline sov replica showed up and snapped at the neck immediately. Must have had a lot of stress in transit or at time of production. They sent a replacement right away though! Will update when it arrives

Holy shit...a USA glassblower could sell that for close to 1k I bet, the perc design is super on point as is the shaping And color. Blown away honestly I'll bet borobook and boromarket will be hit with "American made FULL COLOR FTK KLEIN" type resellers soon, ugh

Got my FC-MP from Steven and it's a piece of shit.. fires only from one side of the shower head and the side it doesn't bubble from is obviously fucked up.. One of the slits is almost closed and one has a crack in it. So tired of getting China pieces and having them cut the fucking Percs wrong so it fires from one side more than the other. I've never gotten 1 piece of China glass that has completely functional Percs. Well nvm 1 fucking piece out of like 25, my fc 187 and that's why I went through Steven for the hydratube.. I would usually just use with the messed up perc but since this one is cracked I don't want to use it so it will break when I clean.. What are my options? Can I do a replacement claim with Steven? Is that even worth it? The thing took 3 weeks to get here in the first place. Would he expect me to send the old one back?

It will be a back and forth with Steven through PM's on DHGate, but you can push your issue that it is a non-functioning piece. They won't have you send it back, but probably smash it.

Well that's super lame I want to buy the symbiartics knockoff but if that thing comes all messed up I will just be angry.. Looks like I'm going to just waste my money on American glass? When it comes to hydratubes it's not worth spending 30 then 50 dollars hoping the things will work right when I could just spend 150 and get one that will most likely work right.. And if it does come messed up from vapexhale, I know they will replace it at least..

The second one I got is perfect. It's really a gamble. Not particularly high stakes.

I hear you man. Contemplating whether it's worth ordering another, knowing I will be so mad if it comes messed up or just spending the money on a turbine from vapexhale.

Are you attached to the hydratube? First of all, i could sell you one of my cheap China ones, but that's a PM discussion. Second of all I really prefer bubblers even with the Evo, whip kit or inversion. I say that because Hfy glass and glassartist are DH sellers with far faster shipping and better quality control. Steven is hit or miss but those guys are both A+

I've had very smooth replacement shipments from Steven before. Have him replace it.

Yeah I'm realizing that with my bomb base, a side car is what I need anyways, I'll just take some pics and try to get a replacement from Steven so I don't feel like my money is wasted and save my money for the turbine from vapexhale. I'm pretty sure that will be a good combo with the bomb base.

Its hit or miss with dhgate , I personally have been lucky and prob 1 out of 20pc's I have ordered there have been bad. The good news is your protected and not out of your money. They will replace it or you can just get a refund via claim. Simple process and usually in the buyers favor. The thing with vapexhale is there quality has been dodgy as of lately wich is why many of us have been going the dhgate ht route. I personally have a few dhgate ht's and while I enjoy them all for the most part I have to agree with @YungLeaner , I prefer my bubblers with the whip kit or inversion myself. They milk up just as quickly and easily and its harder to break your glass using this method.

What is Hfy? I get nothing for that on a search of DHgate.

And which glassartist, Hfy or any other dhgate pieces have had the most success with a Liger setup?

Edit: Hfy I see is Phoenix glass.

Thanks guys I will be getting a replacement via claim and maybe get a triple honeycomb copy in the meantime if everyone is having good luck with them. I just want side car hydratubes to match my bomb base which is one piece of vapexhale glass I am very happy I purchased. It is thick, fires perfectly, and feels super nice. They deffenintly did some outstanding work with those but I can see what people mean about their glass.. My hydrabomb fires perfectly but the inner tube in the perc isn't cut well and other small imperfections, the bomb base is perfect so I guess they are inconsistent. Thanks again for the help, opening a claim on dhgate :)
