PONG just arrived! I've only had the regular mouthpiece until now. I like it...better airflow, better clouds, stays cooler. IMO, superior to the regular mouthpiece. This particular PONG has a very snug fit; I can't imagine it coming off unless I dropped it. I'm digging the black tint...looks cool. Great service and fast shipping from yoyokid on ebay.
I cleaned my old mouthpiece with 50% ISO and Qtips. I soaked it for a few minutes without any fogging or damage. Has anyone tried soaking their PONG in 50% ISO for longer periods of time?

Well that is what I said in my review and I am sticking to it. Now if you want extend the air path to make it even more enjoyable. Lately I have been getting just as big clouds with my PN as I do with my solo. I guess that ole muscle memory clicked in to the sweet spot.

I forgot to mention, for the moment I solved the pre-loaded bullet issue. I loaded my capsule to just about the line then I put a tiny piece of a fresh nug on top and pressed it down. It won't spill that way and vaped perfectly. I think I am going to try a nug in the bullet if I can fit it in lol. I never care if my herb is dry enough and don't mind wasting a bit of battery because of it if I am not out and battery dependent.

your vaping it with the nug on top of the ground herbs?

Yes, a very small piece so when it is in a film canister rather to replace another bullet while out none of the herb spills. It vaped just fine. I didn't take the small nug out nor did I poke to break it up after a few minutes. It all came out nice and cooked.
Edit: It can be dry as well as long as it isn't ground it will work if you press it in.

Looks like you made a mod for those glass straws, Dreamer. How's it work with the PONG mouthpiece?
Dreamerr

I would never ignore you. I sent you a detailed response. I don't know why more don't extend the path of any vape with glass if it is possible. Most if they do use silicone. The PN works really well with it and gives me even bigger clouds not what I want that when out but it is good. Also it would be easy to mod a cup for the PN if you want if you use the straw. I am going to do it but have been saying it for a while and haven't gotten around to it. I am going to make a permanent one out of those freebie water bottles. I can then drop in the solo or the PN or the INH.
The Pinnacle Shits all over the competition
its better than a 3d printer i give it the invention of the year. The only prob is 50 min battery life and you cant change the battery. You got your dick in your hand and the thing starts to flash blue dont worry its not going to blow up you only got a few tokes left before battery needs to be recharged and your left wanting more. But all the other units suck no water tool and battery life is about the same and making love to a vapor lightsaber is a hole new experience and wellworth the cash its just if you could just change the battery so your not constantly charging
vaping above 390 gives you benzene so i dont understand the need for a higher setting and oils you would just add a few drops on some bud . Because of the Water Tool & portability the pinnacle is on the level of De verdamper. The pinnacle produces Knock out clouds Superior taste its like inhaling cinnamon of off fry doe lightsaber style =) One of the greatest inventions of 2013 i can't wait to re watch the starwar trilogy's with my Pinnacle and be all pissed when the battery dies
I love the bullets they look great when you unload the thing. engineer Design should make the bullets a lil wider so they don't rattle and sell spare bullets in a six shooter chamber
that spins. The Vapor Tips work pretty good on top of the water tool and vb could design them just for water tool. Also packaging the flavor tips sepratetly would be great the mint flavor ruins the assorted flav tips. Being able to Adjusting the air flow of the unit and adding replaceable batterys would be the true pinnacle in Vaporizing but this thing comes pretty close 
Vaporblunt should add a warning on what not to do and what to do if you do
thing is you can easily blow water back into the unit and i can see alot of people breaking the thing holding it just by the glass and the pen falls out. So if you blow water into the unit quickly shut off turn up side down and let dry for few hours. Has vaporblunt tested this aka What happens if you do blow water into the unit. Would it still work fine or fry the mother board a simple guide going over this type of stuff wold be helpfull. Like what happens if you go over 20 mins of straight use can you blow the thing up or somthing??? So if your looking to get a vaporizer making love to a lightsaber is wear its at

They should just include the PONG as the standard mouthpiece and eliminate the old standard one. It just works so much better.
No flaming. Please do not post any messages that harass, insult, belittle, threaten or flame another member. Warning point issued.
wow looks pretty worthlessIt works fantastic. I just put a piece of silicone and connect the glass to the pong. I thought put a picture up here earlier in the thread but here you go.

I disagree with this. Most anyone who has used a waterpipe knows not to breathe out, but rather inhale.
I kicked my little PN WT over by accident yesterday. I just stared in shock as it rolled across the kitchen floor. Picked it up, and it was fine

Extending a mouthpiece is worthless how? It's like adding a whip to a vape... I fail to see how it's worthless.

its definitely not worthless. helpful for people who want cooler vapor and have trouble with irritation. if you dont find the vapor too hot then its probably not a mod you would be interested in. but it is not worthless thanks for sharing dreamerr

Worthless? Hardly. For one thing, a longer vapor path means cooler vapor/less throat irritation. This is especially useful to those of us who don't own the water tool.
I can see attaching a somewhat shorter straw to my Pinnacle and putting the whole thing in an opaque water bottle. Can you imagine walking down the street, innocently sipping on your "water" through a "straw"?

Smokin' the competition.
Vape Critic has lost all reference to being a reputable source for anything intelligent. I got a Pinnacle three weeks ago and this is the best portable vape I've ever owned. It's based primarily on the taste of your product, which is IMPECCABLE in regards to other vapes. I splurged and got an extra set of screens just so I can have multiple blends going without crossing them over, (unfortunately I did not mark them and forgot what was what 
cleaned them out nice and started over again though) . The only thing I'd agree with is that the top is a little loose now that I've been using it daily, but that's not going to stop me from enjoying every puff of excitement through this beast of a vape. Slip it in my pocket, and go to town, or the casinos in the area. Nothing like wasting some hard earned $ and time in a slot machine and enjoying some healthy rips.

Gotta agree with you about Vape Critic, TS. I lost a lot of respect for him after seeing his review of the Pinnacle on youtube. At first I thought it was my imagination that he seemed a bit biased towards Storz and Bickel Products, e.g. the Volcano, the Plenty. S & B is a fine company with fine products. I've owned a Volcano for 3 years now, but for me, IMHO, the Pinnacle outperforms it in several areas. The efficiency of the PN is a little freaky! Can you imagine filling up a bullet's worth of herb and throwing it into the Volcano? If you own both, you know what I mean.
Vape Critic obviously did not take the time with the Pinnacle to give it a proper review. He didn't even bother trying it with the water tool. Starting the review with such a dismissive gesture "I didn't like it. That's my review" and then laughing just seemed unprofessional and reeked of bias. I really hope FC members who own and LOVE their Pinnacles go to youtube and tell the Vape Critic that you disagree with his review. So far quite a few of the comments are "Thanks man, I'm not buying this vape now, etc" A lot of people respect his opinion, but I must say, I am no longer one of them.

Maybe my pong needs cleaned but it's getting hard to get off without pulling the unit out of its casing.
I love this thing but it makes it feel cheap .
The only cleaning I've done is Q-Tips w 91% Iso on both sides of screen and on chamber opening lip .
I allways rinse the pong thoroughly.
I have to contact Trvb and see what he says it pulling out is drving me nuts.
I tried pushing it back in and you can see the middle slot on both sides and the tabs falling just short of clicking in.
Today it slid out and one of the tabs that is supposed to click into the hole is broken off.
This thing works great but was too expensive to be falling apart from the day I got it.
I bet a dab of super glue would set me right as long as it doesn't affect warranty and I use just a little so it doesnt show.
I would hate to have to send it in.
I like this thing so much I'd almost like to get a second one to switch out on the charger and never run out of batts.
Really though it lasts all day for me if I charge between uses later in the day.
Also I'm getting a nasty rubber taste and odor from the WT stoppers I stopped using them.
I would like to try some in the same material as the stoppers Toros23 found ,wich are working out great.
I carry 3 bullets w stoppers and have 2 stoppers glued end to end to act as a spacer/packer I trimmed them to fit in that blunt tube I got on reccomendation from this thread without rattling.
The tube and the loaded pinnacle fit in that same padded case I have for the W.T. And I have an untrimmed stopper in the Pong as well.
It is protected from moderate to relatively heavy abuse in that case.
The blunt tube works great but is a touch wider than it needs to be , they sell a smaller one but idk if the bullets will fit in it the flare seems to make them just barely not fit in a lot of the things I tried .
If you were looking for a cheap bullet tube around the house i found a crayola marker body that the end popped off and they fit in there great.
I dont mind the slight rattle from the bullet but sometimes I feel the battery shift a bit and it also takes away from the fit and finish a bit . That's just being picky though.
My recomendation for upgrades or the pinnacle 2 would be a solid cap that goes over the pong and covers the button so its its own case.
And more accessories like bullet chambers or a small case that barely fits pinn w pong , protects button and 3 or 4 capped bullets , the smaller the better
Notice I mentioned the button , mine has a pretty solid click and has never accidentally come on however I use a case and see it being an issue if I did not.
For the W.T. I have seen a one way setup all in glass to prevent blowing out once And while it isnt really needed it would be cool , when you inhale the glass balls float and go ting ting ting on the walls it was neat.
It's pretty widely known not to blow into a water piece but it happens from people laughing, coughing and a couple of times from being a newb as far as I've seen.
I haven't let many ppl use my pinn but if it had the WT it came with a stern warning.
LoL this got long

To all those dismissing the Vape Critic's review, I don't think it's quite as simple as him being an S&B shill. I've watched and read a lot of (all of?) his reviews and the common thread I detect in them is that he strongly reacts to the fit and finish of a vape. His praise of the Volcano, Plenty, and Pax are not surprising in this light. They may each have their issues, but the general consensus is that they feel like premium devices.
I've been following this thread religiously and even for people who love the Pinnacle, no one is praising how great the materials are or how well the mouthpiece fits. These kind of issues don't bother everyone, but for some people, they matter a lot. TRVB, I don't think you should necessarily let the Vape Critic's review ruin your day, but I think it's worth considering his opinion as representative of a whole class of people whose first impressions will color their whole experience. Not only with a particular product, but for the whole brand. I find that my wealthy friends, in particular, have very low tolerance for things that are not "perfect".
I don't mean to be anti-Pinnacle, it's still at the top of my list for a first vape. (Just drooling thinking about the potential of a Pro+WT combo). I just wanted to say that I think that while the Vape Critic is a dick, he's giving his honest opinions and I can respect that. Maybe not as much as I respect Dreamerr, SliM, MM, Crohnie, or any of the other FC heads' reviews, but respect nonetheless.

If form is more important than function in a vape then I think your wealthy friends have their priorities out of whack. Besides, I am not sure if a company that goes by the name "VaporBlunt" is really going after the guy driving the Maserati, but I could be wrong. The PN is not going to win any awards for being a work of art but I'll take function over form any day - and that is where this so-called Vape Critic got it all wrong.
Having said all that, I still think it is a great looking portable. Not perfect in finish and materials but highly functional.
