Congrats on getting your Toad, can't wait for mine. Guessing a couple more months for me. Hopefully that's when I get my Nomad too.

honestly, I've been wanting one in this style for a while!!! I'm really glad he tried this style for the Toad...it's a nice surprise! with a conical tip too!
happy to have been able to purchase one of these!!

I can't wait to try it! I’m curious and excited!

In the meantime, I tried a new configuration!
aesthetically, it's nice.




Have a good Sunday, everybody !

I don't get on FC as much as I used to, but thought I would drop a line in here... I got my TOAD in the first batch and still use it as Daily Driver. It is just a beast! Simple and never fails, I just love it as much as ever.


Dan, I came across this old post and was curious, did anything ever develop from your upside-down heater concept? It really would be brilliant and versatile if you could pull it off!

I have some ideas in the ol' notebook that's for sure! The only issue is time, haha.

I think this size of heater is best suited to microdosing, 0.05g to .1g loads. And so that limits the viability as a desktop IMO... but one of the ideas I am most excited about is a microdab rig heater.

Imagine this, the Toad is flipped upside down and with a WPA is plugged into a water tool. With the Toad in your water tool, the wooden bottom plate is now facing up. The wooden bottom plate is removed and replaced with an entirely new heater. This heater would be a heated SiC/quartz cup that faces up (instead of down like the stock heaters). So, instead of having to load the end of the stem, you can now dab directly into the open cup. This makes loading and cleaning much easier than a stem load system with the stock convection heater.

Instead of a WPA you could use a bent stem to bring the mouthpiece back up, kinda like a churchwarden pipe.

Surprisingly the button location feels ergonomic in both up and down orientations, so that's nice.

I think this would be a neat way for one device to be able to do dry herb and concentrates without having to use the same style of heater for both tasks. This has been an idea I've had for a while... but the Toad really makes it much more possible because of the simple rectangular bottom and magnetic pins that can be used for holding different types of heaters.

In a way, I'm seeing the Toad as a possible core unit that could adapt to fun new add-ons, kinda like a Lego brick. But we will have to see... ha. For now they're just ideas!
