The Screwball Mascot Naming Contest is live! Enter before March 17th at 11:59pm PST to win a Screwball Starter kit and other cool stuff
Congrats on the Cup win SM55 and team!!! It is certainly well deserved and here's to many more achievements in 2013: this IS the year of the Cloud, I know it to be so! I will be sucking down a ELB or two in your honor tonight, VXH :clap:
To be clear, the only time I experience "burnt popcorn" flavoring with the VHW is when I pack larger bowls and then the taste only occurs towards the end of the bowl. Even then the taste is much less pronounced than it is with other vaporizers, but I do find the end of large VHW bowls can get a...
Thanks for the effort, Purpl3_Haz3. Again it's just more complicated than I was making it out to be in my head since the whole hash mark thing is just a reference point. However, since I want to know what everyone ELSE is talking about it's pretty important to know what the standard opinion is...
Yeah, I understand what you're saying. The temp dial starts a little before the first hash mark, say at 7, and then first hash mark would be 7:30 meaning that the total span of the dial goes from 7 to 5. I get what you're saying...just didn't really read it carefully enough the first time I...
@newVaper420: I'm sorry but I still don't understand your explanation of the dial. That's okay though, I do appreciate the effort. I will come back later and try reading it again. Regarding your Cloud situation, IDK what to tell you other than it's pretty obvious this requires the attention of...
Yeah...so...I'm a little confused. newVaper420, what do you mean when you say 3? You seem to imply that 3 is not the maximum temperature and it was my understanding that it was. The way I understand the temperature dial is as follows:
There are 7 useable hashmarks on the dial, 8 if you count...
It doesn't??? I've never experienced this at least. As others have stated previously, sometimes there will be one last little wisp of vapor that floats off the ELB after you remove the HydraTube, but that ends quickly. Unless you have some seriously active air blowing around the room I can't...
Thanks for the insight OBG! I always want to write ODB, but that wouldn't be very nice :p
I have noticed extremely minimal play with the bamboo in my newer Cloud unit, so you may well be right about the redesign reducing the need for a flared bottom on the bamboo to act as a stopping mechanism...
This is pure speculation, but I would assume it was done in an attempt to streamline the production part of their operations. Using straight glass tubing is much more time and cost efficient than blowing flared pieces and functionally they will perform the same. I notice no difference in the...
Well, I don't know if I would feel comfortable saying that the Cloud wins on EVERY front. As I mentioned previously, comparing these vapes is a little tricky...which is deceptive at first because it seems like the Cloud is an "evolution" of ideas expressed with the VHW, so you'd assume the Cloud...
Again, IMO there are a lot of factors involved here. Other than the obvious (all glass air path, meant for use with glass waterpipes, etc.) the VHW and the Cloud are completely different animals. There is a very different technique to using the two vaporizers and the overall process and "ritual"...
Not really, no. There are a shitload of factors that go into evaluating the pros and cons between these two vapes IMO/IME and I don't really want to get into that here and now. To directly respond to your question, however, my stance is that the flavor of the vapor produced by these two machines...
Exactly sticks. I can get medicated perfectly well with all sorts of devices and methods, and the end product (the high) is more or less the same...but as far as which vape is the most fun and satisfying for me to use, hold, look at, etc...it's the Cloud hands down. Given that any other...
Great summarizing post, stickstones. I agree whole heartedly with everything you've said, except this part:
Clearly the solution to that problem is to buy a second Cloud! :p I am teasing, of course, but there is a grain of truth to my joking. I personally have two Clouds even though I am...
I will try to keep this short since it’s more than a bit off-topic...but...regarding the Cloud and vaporizing DMT: don’t do it. Will it work? Yes, it likely will work using the steel wool method Seek has described above. Should you do it? Probably not...
I am not saying don’t vaporize DMT: if...
OK...so I would like to support what sm55 is saying by sharing my own story. I recently contacted VXL because I have an older Cloud that runs hot. I talked to Phil and wanted an exchange for a unit that worked "properly." Phil talked to me about this and explained many things, but we danced...
Fair enough. TBH I haven't been following this thread as closely as I could be so I'm not familiar with this issue regarding the Cloud and a particular susceptibility to voltage spiking. All I know is that there are many electronics devices that cost much more than the Cloud that are also...
Not trying to be a dick about this: I certainly understand your frustration and I would likely feel much the same if it were happening to me. That being said, that last statement is not really fair IMO. EVERY single piece of technology you can think of that draws power from a wall outlet will...
Touch screens and bags and bells and whistles...take it or leave it, I suppose, but I for one plan on leaving it alone.
For me, the Cloud equation is a simple one. It is the vaporizer on the market that is the closest to the smoking ritual--once the cloud is heated you just pack a bowl, mate...
