    Phase3 Vaporizers

    I had been happily using glass adapters as bowls for my zx for like a year now. Received new zirc bowl this week. Wow! im getting somehow even smoother vapor, and a completely even roast (sometimes the glass bowl left a slightly less roasted ring around the outer edge) Really didn’t expect...

    Phase3 Vaporizers

    Short answer - no. I’ve always been able to remove a stuck reducer without much trouble. Then again I don’t use expensive glass. Might avoid the reducer if you are using high end glass. But if you’re in that market for high end glass, just get two rigs :lol: Fwiw - zx uses a 16mm heater coil

    Phase3 Vaporizers

    For what little it’s worth, I gravitate towards 18mm glass because the 18mm —> 14mm reducer is so unobtrusive and sleek. I never want to use a 14mm —> 18mm adapter. I use the zx on the rare occasions I get to share with friends. I think it’s much better for each person to get their own fresh...

    Phase3 Vaporizers

    I like the errlectric stand, attached to a pid using velcro command strips so it’s secure and won’t tip over

    Phase3 Vaporizers

    Maybe it’s the way I use it. I don’t like to pack deep bowls with the ZX. I like to fully extract small amounts in about 3 hits, usually ending with a light brown roast. I avoid anything that feels harsh on the throat I don't care too much about temp precision with full convection devices...

    Phase3 Vaporizers

    ZX makes good contact with the coils even with the zip tie at the top. ZX is relatively long, and still hangs out the bottom of the coil. I didn’t even have to turn up the heat when I went wireless

    Phase3 Vaporizers

    :rofl: a couple pieces of scrap wood, a hacksaw, dremel, drill, stainless steel zip tie, a bolt with a matching hex nut and a matching acorn nut. drill hole in base wood so that the bolt can pass through. hog out the acorn nut with a dremel tungsten carbide cutter bit to make room for the...

    Phase3 Vaporizers

    I suppose this qualifies as a hack :\ but I've been using this setup for 4 months, works flawlessly with no issues. completely satisfied my home/desktop needs. don't want to go back to wired. peak hot air device right here :bowdown:

    Tafée Bowle

    I personally find the heavy stony sleepy effects are more strain-dependent than device-dependent. Conduction device effects do hit different for me. They tend to hit me hard, all at once, and don’t last as long. But not necessarily sleepier. Idk, it’s complicated and everyone is different...

    Can anyone compare the Phase3 ZX and the Qaroma that owns both?

    Qaroma was my go-to for over a year (maybe 2?). Was replaced by my ZX with no regrets. Qaroma works great, but took slightly longer draws to make thick vapor. Needed to use a little more lung capacity to get a decent hit. Could be mitigated by turning up the heat, but that caused flavor to...

    2024 Most Reached For

    ZX for sure. Love appliance style devices I can leave on and ready. ZX is my favorite home vape, especially after going wireless If we are doing honorable mentions, I have to give that to my workhorse of a Bowle. Still my #1 when I leave the house, but that’s not terribly often lol. I was an...

    MiniVAP Vaporizer

    Oof. Yep, I had a straight up bad one back in the day, and another died prematurely. However, Jorge made it right both times. I’m not calling bullshit or anything but maybe try reaching out another way

    Phase3 Vaporizers

    I’ve been using the same piece. I think I got it from vgoodiez. Works great for me. Provides all the cooling I need with minimal surface for vapor to condense on and no drag. It’s also pretty tough! Survived a few decent drops. Ideally I’d like something by like this hook but with a base...

    Arizer Solo 3

    Disagree here. I find it comparable to the anvil and TA3.
