Gear Domeless Quartz nails?

[budz and bhombs]

I have that very nail, and while it's not my fave (the banger from green buddah is),
it works fine. Never had a burnt hit or a puddle. I know some folks say to heat the "dish"
part, but I mostly heat the outside. It does lose heat quicker than other nails, but has no
problem delivering one dab at a time. Sorry, I don't have any tips, it sounds like you are
getting it plenty hot - no idea why it would leave puddles if it's that hot.

hey bud, i know i dnt PERSONALLY know u or havent even talked to you, but a lot of what u guys talk about interested me, so it got me to join! hahah anyways, i was hoping u might chime in bc i noticed in a thread u mentioned u had JUST bought that same nail! i think u actually might have helped me, i can atleat try... bd like u said, EVERY! says hit it STRAIGHT on in the middle and i swear i just DOESNT WORK that way at all.. so maybe i need to heat it up from the outside like u mentioned? bc ive just been wanting to get rid of it bc it make me mad after wasting dabs! lol bc i have a PERFECTLY fine non-ground joint 10mm banger from dabphilosophy on my 1 expensive piece i have bc i WON it! Won it off FB! was pretty cool. but yeah, anyways, i LOVE my banger too, and i even have greenbuddhas quartz carb cap, which fits directly on the rim of the banger.. then i have the reg. domeless quartz nails that either have a male or female joint on em, and those 2 types of quartz nails r by far my favorite. i was pretty bummed w this daisy style 1. im not big on domes either, but i have a dabnflo HH for when i do feel like somethin a lil different. then last but not least, tom. should be getting my new vaoe 14/18mm domeless Ti. got it for 35$! thought that was a pretty good deal. its the version 2 also, w the couple heat rings.. ill have to give heating the outside up a try i guess...

Found this. IDK if it helps at all.

thanks for tryin to help me, it just sucks bc those daisys are a little different and easier to use. this one i have has no vid or ANY suggestions. Even asked the dude i bought it from... hahah

Please LMK how it is @darkrom

Forgot to answer! This is my go to quartz nail for now. I like to heat it from the outside and then swirl the dabber around the inner walls without touching the bottom. Seems to be the most effective way for me with this nail.

I will say my $9-10 ebay ceramic nail tastes a little better than any quartz nail I've ever used, but I doubt I'll buy titanium anytime soon. I just love ceramic and quartz, and unlike titanium there is no real downside to going with cheapo brands.

I just bought 4 of these after getting dicked around for a damn week on a honey bucket male domeless for $17 shipped via eBay. Auction got cancelled, I had already paid.. E-mailed seller asking if he was still shipping or if I needed to get a refund and he said he'd ship. I waited two days, asked for a tracking number and was given a bogus one. Three days later I replied back, no response. Day later I opened eBay case and he immediately refunded my money.

Pretty lame and irked about it because now I can't find a cheap honey bucket nail anywhere. Wish I would have bend the extra $3 and gone with the other seller but now nothing available. Fuck this guy.

Anyways, linky here. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pair-of-EE-...781?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43cf1f1dc5

 

[farscaper]

is that link for the guy who sicked you around or was that a diffrent seller?

 

[darkrom]

Ordered a cheapo quartz castle off eBay today. Figured why not have all the major styles for the price of one "real" nail.

 

[flickyourbic]

Sorry it was for the 4 cheapo nails that I ordered. My roommate won't buy his own rig and it's a pain in the ass carrying all my dab gear back and forth from my room to the living room. So I'm gonna throw him a couple of these and just tell him to use the YQ-42 we went halves on and he needs to get his own torch lol.

So the nails arrived. 1 of them the bowl is chipped pretty bad, enough to where I'm afraid it's going to break if I heat it up. The other 3/4 seemed fine. The nail I'm using right now when on my D020 it sits crooked. Not a huge deal to me, I haven't checked the other two for that.

Heat retention is amazing on these things. I've heated mine up over 1000 degrees according to my IR heat gun. They catch quite a bit of reclaim I've noticed, but that could be user error I guess? Much different tasting than any dab off my ti-nail. I've put probably over 40 heat cycles on it thus far with no issues.

All in all $22 shipped for FOUR domeless male 18mm quartz nails is such a hell of a deal. I highly recommend everyone to snag some of these up before they are sold out or the price gets hiked up.

Also e-mailed seller regarding replacement so I will be sure to touch base on that. I requested a 14mm female as a replacement instead so that I could throw another review/QA out there. I'll be sure to keep you all updated. In the mean time don't be hesitant! These are sweet.

Really enjoying my ebay quartz daisy. Not much else to say. I can heat it for a quick ready to go dab in like 10 seconds from ice cold. Low temp quick dabs are not a prob at all. Gunna save me on butane.

YES! I'm still pretty pissed off about it. I couldn't even leave that asshole negative feedback since eBay pulled the auction. I would have had one in my possession if it weren't for that douchy and shady seller. (Not EE)

http://www.ebay.com/sch/tcwholesale47/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=

Absolutely do not buy from TCwholesale47. eGenerationexperience (EE) is a safe bet for sure.

I got my my fave banger from Green Buddha shop on ioffer, although they have them on their website too, all sizes and joints.

I have a 14mm like that. not from that seller. but it works fine. fits better than any of the polished jointed bangers ever did.

 

[DieHard]

I also have one just like that for my BabyCake and TKO to share.

I would love to try one but I don't want to spend $40 honestly. My only complaint with the EE nails is that no matter what I do I seem to always get quite a bit of reclaim seeping down the stem. Like it hops over the "hump" down the hole through the stem. It's kind of a pain to extract it with my dabber too. The banger nails seem like it would eliminate that issue indefinitely.

I was totally down for spending $17 on a banger when they were available. I really don't want to spend more than $20 on a nail if it isn't titanium IMO and even TI, my max budget these days is $40 and I'll support a local company. Been tempted to try all the china TI nails but still kinda sketch on it. I haven't dabbed the TI in almost a week now since getting my quartz though. Taste is so much different. I'm still getting the hang of quartz and I'm trying to use a bowl I have with a handle as a carb cap. Sometimes it works great other times I notice my shatter just turns into oil and just sits in there.

What do you guy think of this banger.
http://www.google.com/search?q=quar...wQsxg&biw=360&bih=615#spd=8353016861180714302
do you think a ceramic carb cap would work for it.

 

[DieHard]

I have an EE drop down banger and one from greenbuddhashop.com. I find that the greenbuddha one has more mass and holds heat better. Better for small to medium dabs. (Up to about the size of a BB) IMO

OMG thank you! I've been waiting for another banger nail to be around the ~$18 range. I have direct contact with egeneration experience (ee). I think I'm going to inquire with him directly about a banger nail because he said next time I order he'll send a free gift. I also want to see if he'll do discounted group buys too. Say 10 of us all send him paypal for a banger, we each get it for > $10 or something like that.

What do you guys think? I just don't know if there's enough people interested in it for that.

@DieHard - Do you think it's worth it to pay $35 for the buddha one versus $17 for the EE? I noticed you said it retains heat better. The EE domeless I'm using right now I've been using for 2-3 months and I feel like most the dabs I do there is always smoke that pours off the nail. Whether I hit it at high temps or low temp and carb cap it, I always have that smoke trail.

I'm not sure if it is worth the difference (that is subjective). But I will say this. I bought an adaptor so that I can use my 18mm male banger from GBS with all of my 14mm male pieces. The EE drop down banger sits mostly unused.
I think that the GBS one has a thicker bottom because it takes longer to heat.
I have also noticed that some of the females have a drip tube inside the joint to keep the joint clean. My female EE banger gets messy inside the joint (does not have drip tube).

 

[amberevil]

I'm down. Count me in for two. I think we can find seven more.

 

[flickyourbic]

If you're serious I would rather go for the nails from greenbuddha, the 14/18 combo ones.

I can get 10 of them on eBay for $189 shipped. So it'd be $19 a nail + shipping.

 

[amberevil]

Is it female? It does 14 and 18? I would like that too.

 

[flickyourbic]

They are male.

 

[amberevil]

I dont know about that then. I dont wany to have to get an adapter to my fab egg
