I like your style. I never tried a ti tip for the same reason. I heard back then that SS heats up slower and retains heat better, so I just stuck with SS.
I might "need" a new tip though. I have 2 2018 SS tips and a SS vong tip (makers block). No half bowl yet. Hoping my wife will understand...
Since getting a FMJ, I haven't used my IH (PSM). But if I wanted a huge IH hit, I would "pulse heat." 2 seconds on, 2 seconds off, 2 seconds on, 2 seconds off.........and I do this until first click, and then just leave it in till second click.
Is the HA mp super tight on the TM stem?
I have the first version HA mp (before the metal insert). It's too big for the TM stem. I also have the TRWW mp. It's really tight on the TM stem, but loose on the HA stem. Not a problem if using dry, but I do need to wrap my pinky around the mp, when...
I use a TRWW MP and a highartisan MP. Both MPs double as a 14mm WPA, and both are stable when attached to a water piece. TRWW has a Ti insert and HA uses SS I believe. The main difference between the two is TRWW is acrylic and HA is wood.
Best not to use the capsules in the 3d stem. If you do manage to get it in there, you'll have a hard time taking it out (since you can't just push it out from the other end).
Do not do this. A cap sticking out of the stem can push the heater screen into the heater coil. Your TM will be Finland...

Even at high temps, you don't really "need" to stir. People that go low just avoid the dreaded "black ring of death." If you vape at high temps, no stirring, the outside "shell" of your duff puck will be yellowish-brown, but the insides will be as darkly...
@Djsleepy
1. Does the battery go in the opposite direction now?
2. Do you know if there is reverse polarity protection (don't try it, just curious if you knew)?
3. George mentioned that they upgraded the heater screen for more even avb (7:10). Can you see a difference between the two?
TIA
Good eye. At 13:20 you can see the battery come out the wrong way. Curious what's going on there.
@Shit Snacks watch 23:08.
Edit: at 13:08, George calls the TM guy, "Lainus."
Edit2: Sorry. Not 13:08. It's 8:07
This is awesome. Love all the upgrades. Basically, all the upgrades mentioned here, put in to practice (Bowle should take notes).
I'm curious to know how the top light functions in session mode. Does it stay on while heating, or does it light up at desired temp?
Also would be cool if the stir...
The MP on the left is from Highartisan. Made of all wood, with one skinny o-ring, about the same size as the CU o-rings. So you can use CU o-rings as spares.
MP on the right is from TRWW. Made of acrylic and metal (not sure if mine is SS or Ti). Comes with 3 fat o-rings, making it easier to fit...
No it doesnt (for me anyways). Stock TM stem has thicker glass, so the diameter of the highartisan mouthpiece is too big for the ID of the stock stem. If you buy a HA MP, you need a HA stem. TRWW's MP can fit both stems, but his is acrylic and metal as opposed to wood.
I hear ya. I normally vape at 380. Clean-up hit at 420. But every once in a while, I gotta hit it hard, just to convince myself that I don't NEED an anvil. Or a ball vape, or a log vape, or a direct draw butane vape. I'm ALL GOOD!
Until Fw8 comes out....... then I'm fucked. :whip:
