    MFLB Users--minimum load weight?

    Just a quick question for everyone out there who has a MFLB--how much is the minimum you can effectively use in one trench? Assuming high-quality, well-ground weed, not compacted mids or anything. modnote: Moved. Question thread belong in Ask FC.

    Why is it sooooo hard to learn "how to"

    I think this forum represents a trend in a good direction. I'd rather see something like this than a manufacturer/reseller touting a 'how to' of their own products. I'm inherently suspicious of 'information' that coincidentally happens to promote a product being sold. Forums like this, on the...

    VaporBox

    I don't think I'm beating a dead horse at all. You made what I considered a very suspect claim, namely that Da Buddha produced four hits from .3 grams. Using half that amount, I got nearly four times as many hits as you did, which demonstrates that something went wrong somewhere on your end...

    VaporBox

    I REALLY suspect something is wrong with your DBV. Besides the fact that you say there are cracks in the heating element and that it's behaving weirdly, you also said you only get four hits per bowl. This is a sure sign it's up too high. I can, using the stock whip and .2grams, get 8-12...

    VaporGenie

    I believe them about the SiC. They use that stuff in high-end fishing rod guides, although they polish it smooth instead of making it spongy. It's really, really hard stuff. Flame resistant, too...the steel it's framed in will melt long before anything happens to the SiC. I'd believe the VG...

    Getting sick from my new Herbalaire!!!...help?

    I experienced exactly the same symptoms, but with a Chinese box vape I got off ebay. From what I've seen on here, HA seems to be a respectable brand of vape, but I can't comment on it myself. Some things that have helped me: 1. Water filtration. GonG adapter to a bong. 2. Drinking lots...

    Newbie here - Just got a Da buddha and have never Vaped. i have ?????

    Something I've found with my DBV is that I constantly fool myself into vaping at higher temps than I need to. When I started using it, I'd have the dial at 1:30-2:30. Now, a few weeks in, I barely turn it past 12 (vertical). not saying your position will be exactly the same, but the point...

    Do you want a portable vape? Home one? Budget range?

    can someone recommend some good stash jars?

    I actually want to give a warning about the CVS pill bottles. You know how grinder discussions inevitably deteriorate into "well I saw metal shavings in a Sharpstone once so they all suck"? Well, I was thinking about that one day, and my friend showed me her pill case for weed, and I got to...

    Da Buddha

    Used my DBV for the first time last night. Early thoughts: Not as thick vapor as I thought there'd be...I'd read it had a comparatively lower vapor:air ratio, but I was a little surprised at how light it was. Still, when I turned up the heat slightly and did a long, slow draw, I got defined...

    Da Buddha

    Just got my DBV in today. Ordered through VapeNow, which gave me GREAT customer service--I emailed them and they wrote back to me within 15 minutes. Also included a free t-shirt, which isn't half bad looking. Came with two sections of tubing, a great carry bag with tons of padding and...

    List of Recommended Retailers + Deals

    Just thought I'd share my ordering experience with VapeNow... I ordered a silver DBV on...last Thursday, I think. In between then and now there was a holiday weekend, so I emailed them yesterday asking about an ETA. Within 15 minutes (maybe less), I had a response email (Monday at the...

    Holes in the Vap Market

    1. portable vape made to look like a cell phone. i know the iolite kind of does, but...not really. 2. multi-setting vape with different settings for different herbs. let's say, 420 (call it "general purpose" to avoid paraphernalia laws), "tobacco", "salvia", "hops", etc....maybe with a...

    Do you get congested/stuffy nose when you Smoke/Vape?

    You're probably not allergic, if you were inhaling allergens, you'd have a hell of a lot worse than a stuffy nose. At the very least, you'd have some other symptoms--sneezing, hives, continuous cough, something like that. My guess is your body is overcompensating for the nasal dryness...

    A hard thread: Vaping cheap weed (pressed chunks) Will it work?

    I think, given what you have to work with, that you need to do some kind of chemical wash before you vape or smoke it. QWISO seems easy enough, and if you don't know what that is, hopefully someone with more experience will tell you...I don't feel like I'm good enough at it to be giving advice.

    Vapor and smoke alarm?

    Some smoke detectors are so sensitive that they'll go off with almost any particulate matter. I have college dorm experiences of new smoke alarms being set off by steam, dirt, and (this is my favorite) sawdust. Anything thick and airborne can set one off.

    Shipping Items to College

    If you get a generic whip off of ebay, I know it comes in a nondescript package. Anyway, there's nothing illegal, or even against fire codes, about a whip. If anything, it'll probably be labeled "tubing"...and if it's labeled a whip, the people in the mail office will just think you're kinky...

    VaporBros vs. DBV

    I am certain that someone out there has both and can give me (and everyone else) a side-by-side comparison. Equal in all ways? Horizontal heating element vs. angled and screened? Warm-up time? Vapor to air ratio? Anything?

    Fancy water filter for vapor

    I think in terms of the downstem/diffuser/perc thing... A diffuser is a device which splits the smoke into smaller bubbles, or somehow splits the airflow. If anyone's seen a honeycomb diffuser. (I'm too lazy to find a pic, but it's a flat, maybe 2-4mm tall piece of glass inside a bong, usually...

    VaporBros vs. DBV

    Hi all, I really admire FC, both as an intelligent community and the best internet forum I've ever seen. Especially since I came over here from GrassCity, it's a breath of fresh air (puns?) to see such an articulate bunch. About a year ago, I purchased my first vaporizer. It was a cheap...
