anyone have a pic or know if the 2 air holes on the top of the heat exchanger are supposed to be lined up with the holes through the exchanger? i am thinking mine is not lined up properly but don't have anything to compare too.
it seems to not be hitting as well and the 2 holes in the top cover of the heat exchanger no longer line up with the holes underneath it through the exchanger.
suggestions for fixing this?

We quit selling International kits, and made the announcement a while back.
We have a couple of stragglers we have talked to in the summer, who know what is required of them, and will fill those last couple of orders, but that is the end of International sales.
When we stopped selling International we intended that Vapenow continue with North America ONLY. Seems one or two may have made International purchase through the Vapenow waiting list. We are sorry for any mis-understanding or inconvenience, but we have quit doing International sales. Period. And that includes Vapenow. They have made that clear on their site and will issue refund to any who made a purchase. We will also be making it clear (have tried to but will make it more bold) on our site that there are no more International sales.
Questions such as, "Ordered my PD... Do i need a new power adapter or can i use a travel plug? We have 240v here." Show what we are up against with the International Market. And that's just one of the reasons. Sorry, to any potential customers, but this is the way it is. Our unit is designed for the North American Market and is sold only to the North American Market.

Mine is the same, it's intentional. They would have always been like it afaik.sethhobrin said:
Back to the Past: sorry - re: spent tube disposal: a Crystal Light Drink can works perfect, with an series of cuts to look like a large asterick: about quarter coin size (*). In Vonneguts' "Breakfast of Champions", it would look like his drawing of an asshole. Before cutting, it may be benificial to reinforce under plastic top (tape) so that cuts don't get away from you.macbill said:

This was an idea from a while back for a stylish blow jar. As you can see I didn't even polish it up, just a proto-type. It works but my stem hole was over size, so this one would never be just right. Nice tube holder and somewhat neato, duff container.

So I lent my Purple Days to a friend over the summer and I finally got back the last stem he hadn't gotten back to me. Well when I got it I saw why he had put off returning it - He was so desperate to toke up one night (he couldn't wait for the PD to heat up) he filled the stem and lit it (COMBUSTED). So I'm thinking what the fuck? I mean it's goddamn weed not crack for god's sake. I'm guessing alcohol had some play in all this.
So my stems completely black and clogged. I tossed it in a fresh vat of 91% iso and I'm gonna let it sit and shake for a few days and see what happens. Is this tube just fucked or is their hope for it?
Fuck man. Sometimes people's carelessness just amazes me. Well if the tube is fucked he'll be ordering a replacement soon.

Pammy's Ex has had all three of his original tubes stolen by folks who must have thought they would make good little one hitters. Of course they don't.
The little blow box was just a concept. Thought I would show it though, might give you guys an idea for your own shop efforts.

The idea was turn it over, tap the stuff out, but you know how
folks won't understand ...
Even had a /\ under-shape (implemented but not drawn),
below the tube insert to funnel stuff back out. \/
Oh, the fancy wooden stems are on hold for now. Maybe... someday???

I've been reading quite a bit about auto-immune disorders since I have several. Starts with one and others snowball. The chemicals in plastics are being held responsible for the plethora of auto-immune disorders today. The only thing I don't like about the Purple Days is the plastic part.
Did you know that PBDE's are chemicals that manufacturers use in almost all products. Everything they think could be flammable. Your computer, tv, footwear, insulation in your wall, upholstery, cushions, carpets, toys, way more. Problem is that PBDE's are not molecularly bound to anything. As a result, they leach out of whatever they're put in. They end up all over the place, fall to the floor and attach to dust. You have them all over your house. We all inhale it everyday. If you drop food on the floor and eat it, you're eating pbde's. Children especially as they're on the floor and chew on stuff landing on the floor. They saturate mattresses with them, especially the petroleum based memory foam. If you get a latex mattress you're ok. Latex doesn't burn. I use to put out my prairie fires with a rubber mat.
A wide array of environmental chemicals such as pbde's, dioxin's, pcb's, and way more act as endocrine disruptors, They mimic natural estrogen. Once in the cell, these imposters bind with estrogen receptors and begin to send things askew by sending out false signals to the rest of the body. It turns on cellular interactions that shouldn't be happening. When they coat the receptors natural hormones cannot get through and this causes signals that should be sent out, not to. This all results in autoimmune diseases.
Sure not trying to talk Tom into anything. I know he's got enough work to do. lol. If I have a problem with plastic it's up to me to find the solution. I'm sure it's still the least toxic vape out there. It's why I picked it. Thanks Tom. I plan on searching online for something that could substitute. Or maybe find a local woodworker who could craft something.

Beachweed, our Polypropylene Rod is Polypropylene. PP #5 for short. It is not a blend and does not contain anything but Polypropylene.
Not sure why you bring up Polybrominated diphenyl ethers, or why you would think they have anything to do with the Polypropylene used in the vapor tubes of the Purple-Days Diffuser. :/
Plastic is a very broad term and there are a lot of materials that fall under that name. They are not all the same.

Finally got my PD today, and Tom she is gorgeous!. Much darker then I was expecting, and a very nice grain too. It must have gotten banged around during delivery as the heat exchanger clip was all the way to the top and about to fall out, I used a bit of aluminum tubing and pushed it back into place. She's still warming up now, has only been about 30 minutes. But one thing that concerns me is how loose my stems fit in the heat exchanger, the ID of the HE exit seems to be a few thousands of an inch too large. It also seems to be slightly oblong, only on two sides is it really loose. I'm not complaining, just wondering if this is normal or not. Overall I'm very satisfied, and haven't even used it yet! Tom thank you for making such a wonderful product, it's obvious how time and care you put into each unit.
