    Thermal Accumulator by phattpiggie

    I’ve been waiting for a couple months. Got the email from @VGOODIEZ and instantly ordered a TA3 (I had asked them to let me know!). Not exactly sure what I’m getting into but feeling it’s gonna be good

    Tafée Bowle

    Hmm. Less restriction sort of requires more heat unless you are asking the user to regulate their draw (which is a hard sell to the masses) sounds like this new one goes a bit hotter

    Tafée Bowle

    Watching this closely. Cheers to all of you early adopters and thank you for sharing. Very interesting to hear about that combustion event. I think it’s impossible to do that with my OG Bowle. Not necessarily a bad thing (I like power), but sounds like there have been some changes. I...

    Phase3 Vaporizers

    So cool to see more folks getting the ZX experience. Assuming you have quality herb, try using as little as possible. It unbelievable how little I can use to get a really good one hit

    MiniVAP Vaporizer

    Not really. I have the glass core and the PEEK, both quick cores. Not sure if they use PEEK anymore but it’s similar to the old Teflon core. There are subtle differences in flavor, aroma, and probably extraction but one’s not better than the other. Glass core adds radiant heat but heats up a...

    MiniVAP Vaporizer

    It’s been my favorite for maybe 10 years now? I wish flower vaping wasn’t so niche. I’ve had to buy every single vape I’ve tried. This is the most expensive one that I would still say is worth the money. So good I have to keep two Full disclosure, I don’t use a battery anymore. I found...

    First vape for a (loong time) smoker

    Switching from smoking to vaping takes a bit of commitment. It affects you differently in subtle ways that take some getting used to. If you are able to make the switch then the cost of any vapor device will be rapidly eclipsed by the savings due to the big jump in efficiency (you’ll use way...

    Venty by Storz & Bickel

    It’s 2023 people. The sun rises, and tech companies use their consumers for beta testing. Of course there are (hopefully minor) issues to work out with the brand new Venty Blessings on the early adopters. You get the new toy first, while taking one for the team :tup:

    MiniVAP Vaporizer

    miniVAP is at the highest level in terms of effect. Also one of the very best for flavor. Flexicone basket system is a godsend for clean freaks like me, and lets you choose between pure convection and hybrid heating on the same device (direct load vs basket). It may be my all time favorite...

    Tafée Bowle

    Bowle continues to be my go to portable, especially outside of the house. I was an early adopter. Been a huge miniVAP fanboy for almost ten years now and jumped on this wagon early on the recommendation of Jorge. I still think it’s excellent. Sorta like a cross between Lotus and Milaana...

    Alright fuckers. Pressure is officially on. Release a new upgraded Bowle or let S&B eat your lunch

    Venty by Storz & Bickel

    Gotta say, one of the really nice things about having a company like S&B on the scene is that I can sit here and watch these cloudy videos and do my research and know that I won’t have to deal with the annoying “drop” culture, I don’t have to worry about this thing never being made again, the...

    Venty by Storz & Bickel

    Not to get too deep into comparisons… but I doubt the AVLP is comparable in terms of flow capacity, while keeping the heater in operating range, after a 20 second heat up. I should have specified. Yeah you’re right, the v3 pro heats up pretty fast too but it’s also not comparable. Wide open...

    Cooling unit is significantly taller than on crafty/mighty.. what’s the inside of that cooling unit look like?

    Venty by Storz & Bickel

    I think the idea of a “medium mass” heater which gets up to a baseline temp so you get vapor as soon as you draw, but then also uses a flow meter to send additional wattage to the heater so it can keep up during the draw is interesting. It seems like a reasonable compromise to support a quick...

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    Yeah that’s how I used to use it for the first few years, with a regular vapman-sized torch. That works great too, but an oversized torch produces vapor more quickly and I’m always short on time. plus I think it’s easier to get bigger hits with the big torch. Just don’t fly too close to the...

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    Combustion/charring is absolutely possible with the lotus, and probably occasionally inevitable as you learn how to get good vapor to flow. Usually most of the lingering scent is on the bowl/pipe side of the equation, which can be properly cleaned with iso. As for the cap, you can dissemble...

    At what temperature would a 70/30 sativa start exhibiting indica effects?

    Even terpene profile doesn’t tell the whole story of how effects manifest. There is way more going on in there than what shows up on the labels, which is almost entirely a marketing tool at this point. Only way to really know how it will affect you is to try it. If you like it, then you can...

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    Lotus appreciation post. I'm so happy that these are back in circulation, along with the Vapman. These are brilliant little devices, and despite my 12+ years of VAS, I still reach for the Lotus for the first puffs of the day. Says a lot to me. I love the manual/analog experience, as I am in...
