Thanks for the advice. I guess I'll have to test different setups for their resistances. I definitely want to avoid glowing of the SS, so that makes me feel better about not getting a thinner wire. I'm very new to the box mod game, so I definitely shouldn't be trying bypass mode or mech mods...

What gauge of SS316L wire should I use for a simple coil in TC mode? I have a Glow 18 and I ordered 24 ga wire because that's all that was in stock, but after googling about gauges, it seems like 24 ga might be too low resistance. But then again, most of the comments I saw are probably for...

I jumped the gun and ordered some SS316L 24ga before considering all the options, since it was the only SS wire option available on the only site I could find the Espion 200W mod in stock, and there was only 1 mod left and I needed to spend an extra $5.01 for free shipping. I hope that works for...

I didn't realize Kanthal had aluminum in it. Wtf... I got the Glow 18 specifically because I thought it was the cleanest/safest vapor path (after removing all the o-rings and using the glass cooling MP). No way would I have bought it if I had known the coils contained aluminum. Glowing aluminum...

After removing the 2 o-rings that secure the wooden top to the heater, it wouldn't stay on properly (obviously), so I rigged up a way to hold it on by wrapping hemp wick around the wood a few times, and then tying each end to strips of Velcro that I attach together tightly after wrapping around...

Update: I finally received my Glow18 in the mail after 3.5 months. Looks really cool and works well so far. I tried taking the o-rings out of the base, as someone here mentioned this improved the flavor, which to me indicates there is off gassing. But the wood cover doesn't stay on without the...

My tracking number was CA.....DE, from DHL. When I first asked about the delay, Joel mentioned something about packages taking a long time to get to Cali, which made me think he might have accidentally put CA instead of MA for my address. Unless it randomly got sent to Cali first somehow. I...

I've gotten several responses, so I don't think my spam filter is the problem. The last email was 1 month ago, assuring me he'd look into the lost package and get back to me asap.

Update: I still haven't received my Glow 18 that i ordered on November 4th. No update from Joel about the shipping inquiry either. I'll try one more email, but after that fails I'm just going to get a refund from PayPal.

I'm not blaming Green Dream. But if I never receive my shipment there's literally no chance I'm just eating that $280, regardless of the reason for the failed shipment. I'll give it a bit more time. But having no tracking info after leaving Germany is not instilling any sort of confidence.

I ordered my Glow 18 directly from Green Dream (with a bunch of accessories and a dab rig to break over the $250 free shipping limit...I hate paying 40 bucks for shipping) back on November 4th, 2020. I still haven't received it. I know others in the US have had their deliveries from Germany take...

Thanks for the detailed explanation, Shit Snacks. That was very helpful. I can't wait to get my hands on a zebrawood 18 when it becomes available.

Thanks for the input, everyone. So somehow the wood mouthpiece fits airtight against the other wood piece, but can't do so without an o-ring? I'm having trouble visualizing how that's possible. Wouldn't there still be a little gap where the hot air can touch the silicone? Or maybe the bottom of...

Is there any way to use the DTV4 without any silicone o-rings? If not, are there any similar 510 wax atomizers that are glass or titanium and don't use silicone?

I don't have a Glow yet, but from reading this thread, the consensus is that any 510 box mod with at least 80W of power should work fine. The Vapefly Kriemhild is 200W, so that's plenty. I've read that when steel coils glow, which does happen with the DW Glow, there could be small particles...
