    Discontinued The RBT Milaana (unregulated single 18650)

    it's really simple...hardly qualifies as a "mod" but for me it really makes a big difference. just go back one page (page 218) and look at the first post. you can't see in the pic, but the hole at the end of the mouthpiece is very small. in that pic I'm using the mouthpiece on a planet vape...

    I never feather the button either. I feel like my technique is fairly mindless. preheat ~3seconds, start to draw slowly and steadily directly into the lungs, continue drawing steadily, ramping up my draw slightly if necessary to control the heat, release the button when I'm running out of...

    totally agree that a smaller mouthpiece hole, tapered or otherwise, makes a difference in terms of comfort and functionality of the higher temp capabilities of the lovely Mi. I was someone who struggled to use the "stock" stems due to harshness, and I didn't want to always have to use an M2M...

    Divine Tribe atty's

    thanks, thought that might be the case. was hoping to get away with it with frequent burnoffs and just accept that the atty would be abused. its pretty clean by rosin standards but I think I can see the tiny bits of charred evidence left on the donut. was worth a shot I guess

    Divine Tribe atty's

    DT noob here. I have a v2.7 atty paired with a VTC mini. set TCR at 245, temp target 390*F, wattage theoretically capped at 12W. it works but honestly tastes a bit burnt to me on the first puff. could be my material (rosin). kinda doubt it because it smells good but doesn't taste like it...

    MiniVAP Vaporizer

    ahhh doughboy hydra klein... Sold mine to a good friend. Kinda regret it. I dig the green MV too and you even have a matching green AC puck. That is a luxury setup. Quite civilized indeed

    I have 2... one an early preorder and another updated one from PV. they both seem to be tuned the same as far as speed and heat, which is just about perfect. I was expecting the new one to be hotter but it's not. now that I know how to really use this thing, I can't be without it. it's the...

    MiniVAP Vaporizer

    I have no idea but honestly the difference in effect between the two is subtle, and subjective. any difference in overall extraction at the end of the session is probably going to be insignificant.

    MiniVAP Vaporizer

    yes. they'd probably be the same size if you took the teflon sleeve out of the (teflon) chamber. with the sleeve in, it's definitely a bit smaller than the glass chamber. I mean if I take the same material and load each unit exactly the same and try to take the same normal draw off of each...

    no, I think you just need to make sure you never leave a stem in the joint when you aren't using it. this has been mentioned a few times in this thread and is a big no-no for the reasons you have demonstrated and described. it's not that fragile in my experience

    MiniVAP Vaporizer

    just to add data, I will confirm that the teflon core retains flavor for longer, and provides a more pure flavor overall. but the glass core really cooks... noticeably more aggressive extraction with subjectively stronger (IMO) effects. you can finish a load in only a few draws with the glass...

    Holidays in Washington DC

    let's be real - it's not "Federal politicians" who continue to sabotage DC, it's Republican members of Congress edit - ok, yes, they are Federal politicians. but it's the same guys every time, and for the same reasons...

    Holidays in Washington DC

    no. just no... not only is DC NOT open carry, firearms were banned in the district up until a few years ago. also, it's a cosmopolitan city that has residents from all over the world, and it is host to tourists from all over as well. DC residents are totally used to dealing with "others"...

    little update on my Mi. I kept thinking that something must have come in contact with the heater to cause the burnt wax smell that suddenly showed up, so taking the advice of some of you good folks, I did more burnoffs, blowing into the intake with a straw to try to keep the heater within the...

    SSV whip mouthpiece pushed into a small length of herbalizer whip: PVFS long stem: "modified" (crushed) VXL ELB cap: (this lets you create a little "dosing capsule"/basket module deal) put it all together: this mouthpiece mod provides excellent cooling, almost as good as a j-hook. I...

    M2M + jhook was a game changer for me with this vape. I struggle to use it any other way. Takes care of all the harshness

    @GTAVaper thanks for the idea but I'm afraid the smell persists through repeated 3-5 second burnoffs. at idle, the bowl now smells slightly, but after holding the botton for 1-2 seconds it starts to smell badly. this is another reason I doubt that it is charred wood, because I wouldn't expect...

    No worries @VegNVape, I sounded defensive but was really just trying to specify exactly what I did. The battery wasn't full...It wasn't that excessive, honest. 9-10 seconds? Having said that, I don't think I'll be repeating that particular test when I'm back up and running Alas, I'll just...

    held the button for no more than 10 seconds. I was in a pitch black closet. I've abused it more during normal use, as my unit runs cool. does not smell like charred wood at all. we'll see. EDIT: I'm going to be totally honest with RBT and will let you know if they void my lifetime warranty LOL

    well, I guess I jinxed myself. I was just doing the test in a dark room to see how long it took my heater to glow... as it started to glow, it started to smell (strongly), sorta like burning wax. now every time it heats up, the smell returns. it's not subtle, there's no way I'd try to hit it...
