    Ah, glad to hear it. My guess for your flavor problem was a dirty glass wand bowl. Was it just an iso soak, with the balls removed, that fixed the flavor? My primary T1 head is at the point that it needs a good polishing to clean up as it has some chaz on it and iso soaks are doing nothing for...

    Music to my ears! Thank you, @Brenyo!

    I really do need to start using the VI for the re-heats. When I combust, I dump the bowl and grab another Tempest until I can deep clean the nasty one. I just need to use the same cap for that process - although I have another floating around here somewhere, just don't know where it is. OK...

    For an additional data point, I also soak my T1 head in 99% iso when I'm doing the same for the rest of the piece. My click indicators never worked - well, I get one click (the first of the two), so I'm not concerned with how the iso affects the clicks and I rarely rely on the VI. I use the...

    I read through the comments and don't believe I saw this recommended, but have you cleaned out the glass wand bowl? Mine can accumulate some yuck over time that requires a quick cleaning to eliminate. I can see how that would affect the flavor.

    I think one of the problems is that we don't even definitively know what the tariff will actually be to get it into the hands of US buyers. I'm sure @Brenyo has taken notice that many here in FC are willing to pay the tariff, but also consider we're in a forum specifically for fans of DHV, and...

    Well, this is the funniest fucking thing I'm going to read today. "Dear Congressperson Dipshit, I was lucky enough to score a pre-sale limited edition Tempest 2 (as in the one that I'm sure you know has the Ti heat shield!). Save the jealousy for another day - I need your diplomatic privilege to...

    I bought the pre-order model just because it's called Tempest 2 and it's made by MadHeaters. The fact it's Ti is just a cool bonus.

    No one will be able to ever pry my Tempest out of my hands. Don't get me wrong, I immediately snapped up a V2 without question. However, I have almost three Tempests - time to release the extra parts back out into the wild. Keeping my green setup though.

    Will you send an invite for the Discord? I have a few things that I won't use and I'm sure would be useful to someone else. Thanks!

    I can't believe I've gone this long without knowing this trick. I'm floored I went this long without even realizing my VapCaps could be adjusted this way. The shaming may commence...

    Well shit, as many times as I've read the manual, including that part, I seem to have completely missed that part. After taking that part off the cap and slightly misshaping/testing it a couple times, it came out perfect. Thank you for pointing that out to me, @anome!

    @Brenyo, after getting my upgrade kit and completing the swap to the new parts, I've noticed the new induction layer freely spins around to the point that with a quick flick, the whole layer will spin around several times by itself. Just to note, the old one didn't grip very tightly, but this...

    So I've only ever used zirc since I got my beta kit in March. I always find that I prefer the second bowl if I'm doing back-to-back bowls. First one, when the head is cold, I do 510F on the wand until it times out - the first hit is always light, along with the rest of the bowl. Usually not a...

    Here's what I've eventually found as the perfect way to pack it. Push the empty bowl straight down into the coarse ground herb - in my case, and many others, this was with the Reload. I push it down into the herb a few times, lift it up, make sure it's full, and brush any loose herb that isn't...
