    Discontinued Purple-Days Vaporizer

    Those internal retaining rings can also be found at auto parts stores. I had contacted Pam years ago about those rings and she suggested that I try using the screen only with a tight enough diameter to stay in place. Made a huge difference in how often I had to clean the screen, so I've never...

    The HI

    With the new design the bottom screws are removed, the resistor is soldered directly to the power receptacle (best to use lead free solder), and the top screws are replaced with longer ones to more securely hold the tube in place. I choose to repair the HI myself and Alan sent me the two screws...

    The HI

    Open and look at the bottom of your HI from the bottom. Is the heating element (resistor) soldered directly to the power receptacle or does it go to two stabilizing screws on the underside of the HI before going to the power receptacle? If it is the two screws you should contact Alan about...

    The HI

    If the glass roasting tube has been used enough to line the insides with honey, and then you use that roasting tube long enough to get the glass really hot the honey becomes liquid. I once thought I had inexplicably drooled into mine at first before realizing what really happened.

    The Voltage Keeper

    Only DC sources should be used as the input, correct? For example, Jameco adapters (that were used with the Purple Days) run at VAC instead of VDC. They don't work with Centizen's VVPS so I wanted to check if that is also the case here.

    The HI

    DevRev, I'm using glass stems in the same style as the PD with its poly tubes, and I've found it best to keep the pack as light as possible so that the draw is comfortable. The pack will shrink and not make full use of the size of the bowl, but I prefer that to having to struggle with anything...

    The HI

    Sundrk, I had problems with combusting until someone mentioned to blow on the top of the HI to remove excess heat that has pooled there [if I've left it there long enough for that much heat to build up]. I haven't combusted since...

    Fluidization

    Does the herb fly around in the chamber like popcorn does in a popper? If so, that is quite the ultimate stirring method! Stirring the bowl with a stick will seem so crude in comparison.

    The HI

    I tried to introduce a friend to the PD once, but it didn't work out so well because as a cigarette smoker his lung pull was minimal and he couldn't handle the 'milkshake through a straw' effect. It made him seriously question what the point of the whole thing was. He did have a bong so it...

    Both. Glass air path with SS skeleton to reduce the incidence of glass breakage.

    Discontinued Purple-Days Vaporizer

    If you aren't good at tinkering with stuff, do you know someone who is? You or the tinkerer could inspect the original Jameco for where the wire has broken (usually near the tip or at the tip), cut open the insulation, fix the break and re-solder it. Just an idea in case you're looking for the...

    It is safe. The requirement is to have at least 1amp/1000mA capacity. If it says 1.2A or higher it works just as well because the amp rating is only to indicate its capacity to handle that load. My original Jameco fried ONLY because my PD was rattling-- one of the rattles short circuited the...

    Discontinued Purple-Days Vaporizer

    That particular one failed on me after a year... so I presume that burning smell was an indication that things weren't so good with this unit. I decided to buy a couple of Jameco adapters after that...

    Bouldorado, Most likely culprit to me would be that your power supply cord is damaged somewhere, where if you were to move the wire around you'd see your power suddenly cut off and then resume. Do you have a multimeter to test with? I bought a really cheap $15 one many years ago and it's been...

    The HI

    If you just recently emailed him then that is to get on the list, but not to start the production. Some of us waited over a year before we were contacted again for production, but that was because for many months all work was on hold while Alan packed up and moved to a new place that allowed...

    The HI

    Mrmrmrmrmr, I have yet to buy a glass piece to answer your question about leaving it upside down... I'm still using high temp poly tubes. I was having trouble with combustion until someone mentioned blowing onto the HI to bleed off excess heat. Once I got the hang of it, I have never...

    Discontinued Purple-Days Vaporizer

    Getting the PD for the first time, it was amazing to be saving hundreds a year by being able to last twice as long on the same amount. Never ever regretted that decision. I chose to continue the PD method when I went for the HI, using the same types of hi-temp poly tubes. If there has been a...

    While my PD stems are 1/4 of an inch [8/32] diameter, my Heat Island stems are 10/32.

    The HI

    I was having a lot of frustration as I did not want to have to be tentatively and slowly bleeding off heat with the start of the inhale, hoping I don't run into Darth Combust! I want to jump right into it, inhale as fully and freely as I want with zero worries. I'm happy to report that this...

    The HI

    Stainless steel roasting tube tip with poly, just like the PD [old habits die hard with me]. It is loaded to the tip then I use my finger to remove the excess and push in/roll a bit to reduce any stray bits seeking combustion. I have combusted unexpectedly with the PD from switching to a...
