    The Magic-Flight Box

    Launch Box owner since Nov 2009 - An Update on the experience Overall: This is such a great unit. With it's small size and being battery powered it is portable, windproof and silent. I love it! To sit out on the deck and watch nature while holding the LB in cupped hands pressing the battery in...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    Yes when the knob is removed and the shaft rotated it rotates without clicking and the LED/element comes on at odd times. 1) Is a potentiometer likely to be an easy part to replace by oneself? 2) Is failure of a potentiometer likely to be just bad luck, or is it a part that is likely to not...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    Help please. My off/on knob has stopped working properly!! Up until yesterday when turning on my SSV, the knob would make a little 'click' and the indicator light would come on (as you'd expect). However when I turned it on this morning there was no 'click' and no resistance of a click at the...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    On the assumption the unit is good, my guess is that you may be inhaling too quickly/strongly. I have never turned mine past the 3 o'clock point as it definitely starts to burn/brown there, most of the time I have it around 2 o'clock. My suggestion would be to try inhaling thru the whip in a...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    My experiences have also been similar to several previous posters. I 'lightly' posted about this a few months ago. Firstly my SSV is a great piece of kit, no question I am very pleased with it. I have no cough any more and my lungs feel so much better for it. And the hits are great! 10/10 I...

    Anyone know what's with the message on the 7th Floor website, seems a sudden thing and a lengthy one too? "WE are on temporary backorder until 4-9-09 We can ship on 4-9-09. Sorry for any inconvenience" Actually, I read that date to mean 4th September, but hopefully it means 9th April. After...

    Silver Surfer Vaporizer

    I got mine earlier this week and just left turned it on for 20 minutes before using it. Very impressive how quickly it heats up. As far using it goes, I have found that with breathing in slowly I can get the hit just right, if you hoover up the air too fast it wont fully heat as it passes the...

    Discontinued Purple-Days Vaporizer

    Kauri stills grow in New Zealand, it was favoured for ship's masts in the old days, they are the biggest trees here and there are still a few remaining that are supposed to be over 2000 years old. The swamp Kauri is still being dug up today by craftspeople alerted by farmers whose machinery has...

    stickstones; thanks, it a great site/thread Tom; No I didn't have a particular wood in mind, but I do like wood which has interesting grain. Ash is nice, I have a great pool cue that is Ash. I am not very familiar though with different woods and their grains, only that they are all unique. Some...

    Discontinued Purple-Days Vaporizer

    Hi All, I live in New Zealand and a newcomer to these forums, I have been enjoying the long read of the 'Purple Days Experience' thread. I actually owned a vap for several years which as a first vap experience gave out surprisingly useable hits, altho I tended to lean towards the combustion...
