You torchin' @biohacker ? Nice rig, I might have to snag one of them bubble caps ![Big Grin :D :D](/i/s/biggrin.gif)

@biohacker I'm really digging the simplicity of the YQ-21A

Thankfully just 3 so far. Almost 4, but it cost $130 and sat for weeks not shipping and I ended up cancelling it. I'm still super tempted to order it, it's so pretty...It's awesome because you can literally use less than a shot glass full of water! Just wish it came in 14mm, or the banger in 18mm, so I can drop the reducer adapter!
Yeah bro! Cold Start Method is the only way I roll! I will eventually get back to the e-nail and axial coil once I get into insert drop ins more and perhaps grab a sapphire or ruby insert then!
The quartz pi cap is really nice! Just watch your CAS right @StormyPinkness ?? How many caps are you up to now for your 710Coils banger?![]()
Ok ... got it attached properly now@JCat Glad you got everything and here is a link to some pics showing how to attach the coil to the banger with the Axial coil clip. Clip Tech
The main thing is to get the bottom of the banger snug against the bottom of the coil. By attaching the clip the way the pics show. It forces the bottom against the coil and keeps them from slipping apart over time.
I think most lower their temps to 250 or so and then do the distilled cleanup. But you can also soak the banger over night in simple green or ISO and it should also remove any residue.
Let me know how the fitting goes and what temps you are currently dabbing at

that's just a recipe for devitrification ...
I'm high as a kite ... (which is unusual for me so likely quite temporary ... it took me much too long to type this sentence!)
I'm down to 485F now ... but think it might still be too hot with the pearls ... maybe 485F with a down-temp ... more experimentation to do!![]()
Hmmm ... I found when I tried 3x 8mm ones they didn't move much ...Give 1 6mm and 1 8mm a shot if you want! I've been using this setup for the past week and loving it!
I find 3 too chaotic![]()
I'm not using an old china banger ... I'm using a 710 coils 30mm opaque w/ an axial coil ...@JCat that's getting pretty low temp, are you getting any pooling like with your old china banger?

Wondering about what temps are ok/safe/recommended for cleaning? I've tried 999, 950, 900, and 850, and 999 definitely works best, but I only want to do what's safe for the banger and coil to not cause any damage, discolouration, etc ...
I actually have tried the coil on both sides, and either way, as long as the clip is wrapped correctly around the top--same way Shane shows it in the pics but w/ coil on opposite side--it holds it tight and results seem to be identical; the key is the clip around the top and not the side. Like you I prefer it on the other side for cord management sake.lol yeah I get that!But one of the reasons you tried SiC was due to pooling in your old (high five?) clear quartz banger, so since you are in the mid-upper 400's, I was just curious if you're experiencing any pooling at such low temps, or are you able to take in the dab in one rip?
When I had my axial it was either too hot or too much pooling with lots of hits, but I didn't have it installed on my banger properly!I had it on the opposite side, because I thought the cord management would be better!

What fingerprints? Not following you here ... how would any of the oils/contaminants/etc from my hands end up in my banger?But all your fingerprints and its fats etc. and the residue are a lot of contaminants which decreases max. temp to what?
