Cannabis Hardware (formerly NewVape) FlowerPot Twax Vaporizer

I have a question, I currently have a tiny might, good portable so far. Has anyone here gone from a portable to a flowerpot and noticed they get medicated faster/easier/more with the vrod? It takes so much flower to get me where I want to be with the tinymight due to such a small load size!

Yes. Exactly this. My first daily driver was a portable. Regardless of the standards of the portable (build quality, etc etc, lets just say it didnt last), it did deliver the hits, but it took so much effort going through bowl after bowl after a bowl. I've done portable to desktop a few times. Last daily driver before my first FP was a dynavap. I stopped using the dynavap at home completely after that switch. Nothing against the dynavap at all but the difference was huge for me.

This is also why I switched to concentrates in the end as it was more of a flower issue, but still, going from a portable to a Vrod would be portable to a big hitter, IMHO.

That being said, I havent used a tinymight.

That’s right. You can only get out what you put in. If you are willing to feed the Vrod I believe it can deliver.

Desktops and portables, noting does to me like the Vrod.

Welcome IsraTogy. I like a FlowerPot with a big bong too! Interesting setup. I don’t know much outside the world of PIDs and coils that NewVape sells.

Oh, I'm sure it was a misunderstanding. I've had plenty of good interactions with this individual. That's why I made a post explaining myself. No hard feelings.

Now, I hope there are no more posts about this. We are supposed to be talking about the flowerpot. Lets get back to that!

How dare you say that about me and my one legged dog?!

Oh hang on, I think I misunderstood you lol!

Sorry I couldn't resist. Oh mate, I would love to be talking about the Flowerpot. I would love to be using it every day trust me.

I am real pleased that it is giving you so much enjoyment though. Honestly, for a couple years in my subconscious I've been like, "Hey, when is that Ramahs guy gonna buy this vaporizer? He needs it in his life asap, I mean he seems smart enough, knows his vapes and what is around all the threads."

Blows the WS out of the park too I have to say, personally, in terms of all round vaping experience. Different animals sure though and both have a place for the right person at the right time.

Ok so it's not just me. I have been having a hard time with lung congestion and coughing. I told a buddy of mine that I think it may be cuz of the huge hits I take from the FP. The last 3-4 days I have been mixing in my other vapes to combat the issue. I normally vape dry so maybe that is part of it too. Been using water in my pieces the last few days to help some also.

This may be the one drawback of the FP?? Hits are too big?? I cant believe I just typed that..

I think this is an issue every vaporist will eventually face, at age 59 and after 4+ years of daily vaping, this is what I can contribute to the subject:
Extra long hits (12-15 seconds) using a desktop convection vape and dry glass are a recipe for disaster, especially if you are using high THC strains. For most of 2019 and into 2020, I used the eNano dry through a glass coil and j-hook as a one-hitter, taking massive cloudy hits that were amazingly tasty and potent. This eventually led to chronic coughing and a persistant throat tickle just when Covid hit, so I had to do something. I ended up going back to the FP Weedeater, always with water, always capped. I can literally take 3-5 second super cloudy hits with minimal lung effort, and then inhale and exhale in one motion without holding in the vapor for long. I have also switched to 1:1 THC:CBD strains for about 75% of my hits, this makes an enormous difference especially for throat irritation. This new routine has kept me cough free and without a tickle for 6 months, and I vape 1-2 grams each night over a period of 3-5 hours at 570F.
Just an aside: I had a real wake up call when the Vape Critic retired, I want to keep using for many more years and there was a much younger guy who basically burned out on weed after spending some of his most productive work years building a weed business. He was the one who advocated vaping dry, a really big mistake looking back now. And the crazy high-THC strains will get you in the end, stick with the flavorful strains under 20% and balance with CBD, your body will thank you.

I used to get 99% pure CBD in solid-slab form and I would break off a piece and dab it in a banger right after a hit of flower from my vape.

I haven't had any of that CBD isolate in a long time now. I need to order some more again so I can twax it with some flower in my Vrod!

For those of you who went from a dry herb portable to this, did you feel less harshness on your throat due to going through water and less heat by proximity?

At the lower to moderate temperatures, the Flowerpot can be exceptionally smooth. It's like not feeling anything going in.

But compared to most portables, the FP system just gets you there so much faster and more easily.

Sure the water helps too.

I gotta say though, in pure honesty's sake, the Herborizer Ti does produce slightly smoother vapor. Just for information sake, I am not saying it is better.

One of the things I love most about the Flowerpot, sans carb cap, is how open the airflow is.

Well here she is.. Isn't she a beauty? Been taking care of her for about a week now.. No cloths or any flammables are being kept around my desk now. The funny thing is, I had a problem with the nut becoming loose, now it seems as If I'm having a problem with it becoming stuck! I had this problem with the other one as well. In other pictures and videos I've seen the nut sits much lower than it does with mine and it's sitting flush. I'm not sure if this was a redesign or not because I can watch video's on NV's YT channel where the dish nut sits much lower. Not too worried but we'll see how she goes..

If it wasn't for Bud, I would have never have purchased my first vape the Plenty back in late 15. What exactly happened with him? I heard he just up and quit? I gotta admit while I liked his reviews.. His livestreams... well.. just weren't good for his image. He really behaved douchy and immature IMO, but I digress, He did turn me on to the vaping world back in 15.

Also I never agreed with him on vaping dry for flavor. It just seems counterproductive using a WP dry IMO. I can tolerate vaping dry with the mighty, plenty dry but for the love of god, if you're going to use a WP.. add some water. Or at least that's what I tell everyone else I know.

I tend to loosen both threaded joints (the heater assembly, and the nut on the dish), and finger tighten it, before I turn it on each day. The heater head has never gotten stuck and the nut on the dish has never gotten stuck. The nut on the dish is sometimes a little loose, but not much since I check it everyday, so I haven't found a problem.

Also, the nut on mine goes down about as far as yours does, so I think you're fine:

It isn't even bad WITH the carb cap tbf. Much rather suck on a permanently capped Flowerpot than a lot of other vapes out there, and I a, the least fan of draw restriction.

For those of you who went from a dry herb portable to this, did you feel less harshness on your throat due to going through water and less heat by proximity?

Yes, there is no comparison. I have a grasshopper, edge furry, and dynavap for portables, and besides the dynavap I dont use the others. The grasshopper is way too hot to hit dry, and the fury edge just burns and dries out my throat, makes me cough.

I have to try hard to not take too big of a hit. Bad habits lead me to go for the biggest hit I possibly can, breathing it in deeply. I focus on smaller hits and not trying to breath in as deeply and it helps a ton.

I also noticed I cough way more with store bought product than homegrown, no idea what that is. Psychosomatic?

Yeah that stuff got so much cheaper too since about 2 years ago. And vaping the CBD is far more efficient, absorption wise vs oral.

Always tighten the nut gently with your fingers before use. Never screw it on super tight because of heat expansion. That should mostly prevent it from getting stuck.

If it does get stuck let the device just barely heat up and it should twist right off.

Love that beautiful gold color man! Nice to see your dish nut sits the same as mine.

Your method of taking everything apart before heat up on a daily basis sounds good. I think I may start doing that. I have never had a problem with anything sticking ever.. other than that dishnut.

Yeah I always just finger tighten everything. I just removed the nut with a pair of pliers and re attached everything. We'll see how it goes from here.

So I got the shovel head. I need a metal backup always because of being clumsy. I'm about to try it out. I absolutely love the FP. Everything else is meh. I've been using it at about 615 when it's good n heat soaked I scorch at 650 the recommended heat to start I guess. I wish I could figure the higher heats out so I can get more out of concs. I feel like I get them better at the 650 range but then proceed to scorch the herb below.

With higher temps you have to increase inhalation speed. As I understand, dialing in the temp for the FP has more to do with your preferred draw speed than anything, but now you have me curious to try lower temps.

I should mention I am using the weedeater.

All-good for you, but not for me so far.
The carb cap is a noticeable level of resistance to me. I prefer controlling the drawspeed with my lungs by themselves, rather than using that cap to force it.

Don't get me wrong, I always use a cap with concentrates, but not with flower alone.

Sounds good.

I've found my sweet spot at 635. But it's different for everyone.

Pretty sure @EmDeemo does.

There is a thread for it, a few users there. I think someone posted in the Tbucket thread about having one too as its based around the TBucket.

I never got the hang of higher temps, but what Zoltani says is certainly what I've picked up from this threads high rollers.

This. All set ups are different. Controller temps are merely an indication of roughly where the head might be and dont accurately indicate air temp or how all the other factors will interact to give different extractions.

Double deckers likely benefit from a fast draw, increasing temp for the concentrates (pressure from capping), and not allowing the hot air to hang around too long on the flower.

EDIT:

Pretty sure @EmDeemo does.

Sadly not, just the TBucket, but its the same core basics.
