    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    And I can understand that if it is indeed the case. My wife is being nice and re-stitching the pickets. I was thinking of just doing some really small ones for the wand and mouth piece that were horizontal and seeing if that worked at all, just to mess around. I really do like this device a...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    Took my heater cover off today and noticed that the piece of metal under the heating element is quite badly bent. Hopefully it is not a sign of mishandling. Out of curiosity I emailed 7th Floor about the pockets being upside down in the bag. I figured they would give a "Sorry, but its not...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    Yeah that is what I am using well and it works great! I did notice as well that if I didn't move the want around I would get a dark bull's eye where the hot air was hitting. I've combusted 3 times, so I know the heat is there, just a matter of getting what I need. I will continue to work on...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    Does anyone have a technique that they use to get there flowers a nice dark chocolate color? I tend to try to get mine as close to black as possible without combustion, but the darkest I've been able to get so far is somewhere between milk chocolate and dark chocolate. I find slowing my draw...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    Yeah I've had a great experience with the unit today. The only downside so far is that my sweet bag had the inside pockets sewn in upside down compared to the way they are on the website. This results in the glass falling out due to gravity and sliding in with the metal SSV. Maybe I'll attempt...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    I did another 1/3 wand, and it took me through most of the day off and on. I still haven't managed to be able to get my flowers as dark as I did in the MFLB without combusting yet, but that will come in time. So is the consensus with the element that most of them do not turn completely orange?

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    No worries I'm still learning as I go along as well! I was totally paranoid my unit wasn't heating up enough when I've proven twice to myself that it is not the case. I'm surprised at how much more evenly everything is toasted using the SSV compared to the MFLB. I know its because of...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    Nope. I was worried at first, which was why I had it cranked up and combusted. Pretty much the top 2/3rd's are red, with the bottom portion still being white. EDIT: Just checked, and when at the 12 o'clock position only the top half of my heating element is glowing. When on full its a little...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    First Thoughts: I didn't have much to use, so I filled up the first quarter "whip" with some leftovers from my MFLB last night, then packed another 1/4 whip fresh herb on top of that. Got some nice big clouds early on. I cranked it up on high, then back to around the 12 position. Got...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    I'm glad to hear it! Mine is supposedly being dropped off today so hopefully I will be joining you in the clouds. It's here! Looking good too, black with yellow base and yellow glass. So tempted to try it, but I have an interview in an hour. Will be a good way to wind down after I think :D...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    Still waiting for mine, I am told that it is in the mail. I'll let you know how I do for comparison. While I wait, are you using a fully packed bowl/wand? How fine is your grind? Have you tried using more or less herb and maybe a finer grind? Does increasing the temperature not result in...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    Still no response or update from Vapetropolis regarding upgrading shipping or shipping the unit at all. I emailed them again, directly this time, and politely requested a shipping upgrade again. I have the distinct feeling they're waiting for the shipping notification to go out, and then will...

    Boo, a shame I can't get anything like that where I am in Canada. The highest proof at our Liquor store is 151.

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    I just got an email back in response to my second email to them requesting an update. They replied with the following: "Dear Valued Customer, We are extremely sorry, but unfortunately there has been a mess up with our order system communicating with the warehouse's system. Orders from the...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    Yeah, I'm kinda annoyed. I placed my order on the 28th at 9 in the morning, and nothing since then other than the order confirmation. Will likely be trying a different retailer in the future.

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    EQ is, IMO, jack of all trades master of none. It does a little of everything, Bags, whips, water bongs, but it excels at none of these. So how are you planning on using it mainly?

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    Just popping in to say I pulled the trigger on my SSV today. Got yellow glass and a base, with the blank unit. I ordered "Without glass on glass heater" as they charged extra to include it...I hope this means I'm just getting the standard heater cover, and not no cover at all...

    Straight from the horses mouth, thanks! I'll have to place a nice bulk order for the hose and hands free clip and maybe a few goodies when I order my SSV on Thursday :D. Very excited.
