    Arizer Solo

    Blow in the bottom and see where the air comes out! You will feel the air blowing out the top of the unit. This does not necessarily mean that inhaling from the stem pulls-in much air from the electronics/battery compartment, but it does mean that you are inhaling SOME. This helps greatly to...

    Arizer Solo

    Aren't they lovely? My Arizer Solo and I met a few weeks ago, instantly married and the 'Honeymoon' just keeps on going. I made a new one! Simple straight sides, the 'bowl' consists of a cone with a hole at the end, about 7mm wide and 4 mm deep. A bud of unground material is placed in the...

    Why on earth would the plastic melt at the contact point with the cool metal case? Are you pulling something here?

    Yes thanks, and how smelly was your unit after burning-in?

    Modifying the Hakko 556

    That looks better than what i got. I found a 30w ceramic core soldering iron from "Edi-Tronic" germany for 8 euro. I exposed the heating element and let it heat up for ~10 hours - the smell was pretty bad at first.. now it is fairly inoffensive but still noticeable. How smelly was your...

    Arizer Solo

    The largest hits i have gotten from a portable have been from the VaporGenie coil. The Arizer Solo chamber measures 11 mm diameter (inner) by 10mm deep equaling 691 cubic millimeters or 0.7 cl volume. This is smaller than the VG coil, but larger than the effective material volume on the MFLB...

    Arizer Solo

    That is your personal preference, and is fine to share. This is pure speculation to imply that the Solo is unsafe.

    Just tried cigarrette filter cut in half and stuck it in my homemade stem for a screen. Works great in case you are out of the real thing!

    Arizer Solo

    >1. What are the downsides of this vape in your opinion? It is pretty much perfect IMO In the stock configuration the restricted draw can be difficult to get used-to: if you are actively moving about, your body needs more oxygen, and drawing on an Arizer after physical activity might feel...

    Sorry Da Ape i missed your question earlier - picture your arizer stem except a little more uneven. the unevenness provides space for the air to get through.

    (^^oops sorry for the double post!^^) Yes nicotine is a relatively poisonous alkaloid, thanks for pointing that out. If you are mixing or dispensing liquids, you must be able to estimate how much nicotine you are portioning-out and consuming. It can help to consider whether an intermediate...

    I am trying all kinds of things - screens, glass beads, tobacco. Best temps seem to be 3-6. According to Wikipedia, boiling point of PG (Propylene Glycol) is 188.2 C.

    Hey MrNorml, that is absolutely right. Many people in this thread mistakenly claimed that the holes in the stem are the determining factor in difficulty of air draw, but this is clearly not the case [edit: with the 5 tubes i have tried -- on these, ] the resistance to airflow is determined by...

    HTH! and from the base of the crucible to the top of the (outside) cap of the Solo my measurement says 18 mm. I like the depth of the stock arizer stem, but i will experiment with shallower bowls (1/2 the depth).

    I anneal using a technique taught to me by my chemistry professor. [edit] i have been advised to warn you not to try this without proper training: glass needs proper handling or it can unexpectedly shatter and that would be bad near your face. I dont know how long they took to make, as i...
