Woot, finally got to post. Please mind my super low post count, but let me introduce ma self real quick before attempting to prove a point. You can call me red, I just started vaping since this week, and I have to tell you, that it's totally out of any expectation a smoker might think vaping is.
I tend to find vapor to betricky, I dont really know when too much is actually too much in terms of inhaling. Take this as an example, since the arrival of my PD, I've had really long drags that literally made my lungs ripped apart in shreds from the coughing, because there is hardly any burning sensation at the end of the throat to tell you when enough is enough, just a smacking sensation of vapor rich in THC (yummy) that crawl into your lungs. I've had hits of the PD, without any exaggeration, that put me into an eating frenzy, similar to the ones I had 2 years ago.
I am stubborn by nature, I didnt read any instructions, all I wanted was to vape the moment this box had arrived over here. I got everything connected, I really felt worried because I thought my PD was malfunctioning when in fact it just took 30-45 minutes to heat up, I left it there and I couldnt vape anything because I was really stupid in buying a regulated 12V DC adapter, that only gave off 0.7 of amps. That sucked man, I went back and had that thing returned, it costed me 30 Aussie dollars (thank you market recession) so I had to return it.
Another stupid mistake I did was to place the herb the other way around, dont ask me why, but I just had an instinct that placing it below the stem was gonna make the herb fall down the heating tub easily, I didnt know that packing it will get it to hold in still and all that. I was literally sucking herb and spitting it out for half an hour before I held that little piece of paper that Tom has placed in the box SHOWING me clearly how to place the herb. Right there, I felt like I needed a slap somewhere. Anyways
Here comes the sweet part. I burn alot, on average days I used to light up 6-7 J's all by myself, while working non stop like a workaholic in the office. Toking through my persoanlly customized bong was putting my high on the right levels. Then just like Spiral ( I am 22) I got hit and the smoking caught up with me. Here came the phlegm, coughing, shortness of breath, you name it. So since last sunday, I've said bye bye to the world of combustion, and oh god how beautiful this world is. Waking up every morning feeling a beautiful soothed throat, rather than a totally f@$%#$ throat that needs 3 glasses of cold water to have it somewhat revived.
I am now just in love with my PD. I burn through the herb MUCH more less than what I used to when toking with bongs and J's. From 10gs per week, to 3.5g per week, is ALOT, and its going to be that way, because after the 3rd bowl, im almost smashed here.
I don't know whats wrong with the shipping interstate in the US, but Tom shipped it from oregon on a wednesday (which was Friday in Aussie), and I receieved it on tuesday (which is sunday in oregon). So basically, this little gadget took no more than 3-4 days to get shapped across the oceans to where I am. For the first time in 2-3 years, I feel like I bought something that was worth it in every single aspect. Even after the shipping, 2-3 emails from Pam were sent just to confirm with me that everything is going well and as intended.
Thank you for such a wonderful experience, and an investment into a healthier life.
I got this time the 12V 1 Amp unregulated DC connecter, the electrnoics shop swore it would work, and it finally DID. The thing now has been running for 72 hours non stop, it's so strong, this little thing I underestimated way too much has proven to me that it can withstand even these working conditions. I went and grabbed a 6mm plastic tubing of a kids shop, suprise suprise, the thing even goes through the stem perfectly without any problems at all.
Any chances we can see some advance pictures? Please? 
I'll just go ahead and blame it on the vapors

on getting it dry, Ive heard someone say that its better to place them in a freezer (-7 celsius or so). but who knows.
