I got curious on these and did some math (assuming a real cold ohm of .25) - dropping your cold resistance and increasing your TCR is basically the same thing, looking at the delta ohms (the amount of heating applied until the mod turns off the power) 0.0475 vs 0.0505, yours will be less hot...

yeah this is what I was saying too heh. I think the locked cold resistance is probably low. its been so long since I used one I tried to give a range but it needs to be read and set proper

I have been asked to clarify that I am not offering any of these devices for sale on this platform. I do not have a commercial account here and am not interested in converting to a commercial account. This post serves as a build diary

right, what jasper said - SS doesn’t start to glow unless it’s heated above 900F. should never get that high in regular use (I might get close during “burn off”)

no solder, 316 stainless. it’s screwed to the deck. airpath just glass, wood, metal.

quick update - been sick, everyone in the house got pneumonia (not covid related) and my gf had to go the the hospital for a few days. she’s back home now and we’ve all just been resting and recovering. i finished rigs for folding heaters and cutting glass, they work great. i expect everything...

the glass itself is from - https://www.mountainglass.com/search?keywords=19/22 which gets recommended on here from time to time then I've made some tooling around cutting and sanding it - its self contained in a big plastic storage bin. cordless dremel mounted to an X/Y table. I would not use...

i’ve been replacing the 19/19 glass in splinters with 19/22 or 19/26 as they break, wider compatibility

looks very modular which is great. maybe mix and match parts

don’t beat yourself up the sellers under no obligation to sell it to the first person either :/

it’s just an 18mm nectar collector straw you should be able to find one cheaper. if you’re looking for non-glass i would look into wood though, def won’t get hot

status update - I'm doing small batches right now so I can iterate on different design points and making rigs so I can make them faster/more consistent. Example design change - move the air holes to the bottom (less draw resistance). Example rig - folding heater meshes (more consistent...

Ok just tested the spalted and marblewood without glass. I forgot to turn down the temp to really focus on flavor, but for my regular settings/usage I didn't notice anything. I will get more glass to do another comparison but Im pretty happy with the results.

sure is. my new daily driver probably. if anyone else knows where to find some more blue mahoe to buy lemme know. preferably 1.5x1.5…. ‘woodcraft’ stores. next paycheck i’m doing a road trip to get some more lol, bought out everything local. I hope the spalted works out ok, i have enough to do...

just tested some - tighter folded heater - indifferent so far. had to drop tcr slightly (93 to 98). blue mahoe without glass - pretty stellar glass with bottom air holes - fantastic

I wouldn't say I'm a flavor snob, but I had to sell my tinymight because it had some kind of fish oil flavor that never really went away. So I definitely understand flavor can be a deal breaker on these things. I ran a blue mahoe without glass for 2 weeks and Im not sure if there was no flavor...

new prototype batch - New batch of test units, trying some new options. All of them use a smaller/tighter folded heater, hoping to heat a bit more evenly. Also this brings the resistance down a bit (from around .45 to .38). Most of these are no-glass variants, so I can taste test some...

they are all the same internally right now with 19/22 glass, should fit everything except maybe some lamart stuff (it’s 19/26) won’t be optimal. i am testing a non-glass version that is very promising too

verification - new milaana 3, with charger and cooling stem - $260 splinter z v2, refurbished with new replacement glass - $150 SOLD ------------------------------ new/unused, made by me. cosmetically flawed but fully functional. cosmetic defects include drilled off center and the...

58% boveda packs for on demand vapes, 62% for session vapes, perfect consistency and tamps well stem pack - I tend to just use this with WPA where it sits upside and doesnt become an issue. i couldnt imagine trying to nurse a stem pack without water
