Yeah, my place isn't well insulated, so it's hot in summer, cold in winter.. I increase the voltage .5 - 1v on my dogs when it gets cold, works perfectly.

@OldNewbie @florduh Any chance I could convince you to take your discussion to pm's? Or at least keep it off Cannabis News? Thanks in advance.

No, UD's are the same. There's no wood in the vapor path. Just stainless steel, a stainless steel heater cartridge (used to be a ceramic resistor?) and whatever stem you use.

Hey, CuckFumbustion. FWIW, I have a resistor-based dog from early 2013 running off of a tpn-023. With a 12v power adapter, it was running a bit colder than I wanted, so Dave set me up with the tpn, and everything's been golden since. I tend to run mine between 12.8v and 13.3v, the lower end for...

So far, I haven't found much info about one oil being better for the cold-infusion process than another (aside from the need for the oil to remain in a liquid state during the infusion). Usually, herbalists will choose an oil based on the intended application of the finished infusion, or one...

Thanks for the update. I was going to try the 1-week infusion, but I'll skip that and go for 3-4 weeks. I think it'll largely depend on the oil used and the conditions it's kept in that will determine the longest, safest infusion. But I'm sure there's also a point of diminishing returns...

3 weeks would likely be no problem with ABV. Google "infused herbal oils" or add "rancid" or "botulism" and you get a lot of hits, lot of info. Herbal Academy of New England suggests steeping dried herbs for 4-6 weeks, then storing for up to a year after decanting. University of Maine...

Over the last 2+ years I've had my dog, I've tried from powder-fine to no-grind, and the conclusion I've come to is that the results are about the same overall. It's just a question of whether I want maximum extraction up front (finer grind), or stepwise extraction (no-grind). These days I'm...

Try curling your tongue back so the vapor hits the underside of your tongue first. Also, keep a drink handy.

Sorry for the lack of updates. This past week I've been sleeping on a very firm (and unfortunately short) couch, and I've slept better than I have in a long time. So, I'm going to see about getting something better to sleep on.

No luck so far... I haven't noticed any improvement in sleep quality from increasing water intake while vaping, after vaping or during the night. On a no-vaping day, I drank about half the amount of water I normally drink and was a little dehydrated when I went to sleep, but I slept well...

I wanted to say thanks to everyone so far for the ideas and suggestions. I'm currently vaping just once per week, so it'll take me a while to try out a lot of these ideas. If any of you who have a similar problem with unrefreshing sleep want to run some trials, you're more than welcome to post...

MPZ: Another vote for low-temp and stretching, I'll definitely give them a shot. Thanks again and good luck to you as well! BranFlakes188: 5 hours of sleep over the last two nights? Brutal. Hope it all evens out for you soon and you get in to a good sleep schedule. I remember when I took an...

lwien: Will do. And I have the same experience regarding the REM-rebound. The dreams are usually much more intense after several days of daily use. Since I'm currently only vaping once or twice a week, the rebound is not nearly as aggressive. hoptimum: Spot on. Ultimately, I may just have to...

(We'll call him B): Thanks for the suggestions. I don't know much about Yoga or Qigong, but I'll look into it. lwien: Thanks for bringing up the topic of REM sleep. While I was typing out a reply to you, it occurred to me that I could try something that would dis-inhibit REM sleep (or perhaps...

I've noticed that if I vape in the evening, I'll sleep solidly for 8+ hours, but when I wake I'll feel like I've only slept maybe 2 hours at best. The following day I'll be dead tired, but not sleepy. I've read similar experiences on other fora, and I'm betting some FC'ers have this problem as...

Hi, all. I seem to be losing heat after a couple of back-to-back hits, and I then have to wait about 10 minutes for the dog to get back up to temp. So, for example, I could load 2 stems the same, let the dog heat up an hour, hit one stem and get a perfect chocolate roast. If I then switch to the...

Anyone else get static cling with their stems? When I go to stir inside the stem after taking a draw or five, herb leaps out at me, crawls up to the tip of the stem, hangs around the outside, clings onto whatever I use to stir with (SS or glass). It's amusing, but I end up wearing it. I think I...

Thanks for the tips!

I like this idea. I was wondering why the glass stems were fitted with the thinner silicone, and whether anyone else was using the thicker silicone for the glass. What's your reason for the room between the screen and glass? Better airflow?
