    Dynavap VapCap

    I have felt that pain before! Stay strong and keep hope. It is out there, and there is light at the end of the vapcap wait. It will be sweeeeet like 420 whenever it comes.

    None. The M consists of three components: Stainless Steel tip Stainless Steel condenser Stainless Steel stem (body+MP in one unit). + a few o-rings. The tip is interchangeable with a Ti Tip. The condenser is the same condenser as Ti Uni models, so no point in interchanging but you could...

    I got an M during launch promotion. I'm trying really hard to avoid the sale, I haven't even gone to the site to look cause.. well..must..avoid..VAS.. All Ti models are basically the same in all vapor-production aspects. The Omni adds convenient air flow adjustments but uses the same Ti tip as...

    Played with the M a bit more, It works!:D Definitely a great vape in the lineup. I love the weight - It's what I had in mind when I got my Damascus piece which I still admire occasionally though doesn't actually get used much. The M feels like it's made to be used and built to be abused. It's...

    M MMMM oMMMM oMMMMni! oh my my M is an oMni! :D Depending on your preference, pushing the condenser in a little on the mouthpiece side restricts draw just enough to leave as is :) Downside is you need to fiddle. You'll need to remove the tip and push the condenser back in to reset the...

    The auto-magic super rZToaster, or something like that..

    @hardboiledfrog yep def. could do with smaller transistors. These puppies hardly get warm. + The capacitor gets a little hot, specially multiple vapcaps are being toasted. The IR sensor is working very well, very smooth readings. What it's actually measuring, and how accurate, is another issue...

    He is our third boy. So now we're 4 monkeys and wonder woman :) And I've even managed to make some progress :D OK.. A LOT of progress :rockon: To cut to the chase this this is ROCKING :D My favorite new feature is incremental mode! I like to start it at tasty 98°C, and every time I remove...

    MiniMe 3.0 has finally be released! :D :D :D Under the circumstances, baba and mama are doing GREAT, and may even come home today :) In the meantime, I received my package last week, managed to put the oscillator back on the board and get it rocking. still need to hook up control circuits, no...

    VapCap Induction Heater for Desktop and in Car Use

    YES! Battery Indication is really important specially since the BMS will just cut off the batteries when they get low and it'll be a bummer to get stuck. It's important to note that the batteries have internal resistance, resulting in a lower voltage output while under load. All this means is...

    I haven't looked into strength ratings etc so can't comment. However, make sure it's at least axial. https://www.kjmagnetics.com/magdir.asp IIRC this was mentioned here, just can't recall by whom..

    The auto-magic super rZToaster, or something like that..

    YAY. So, the IR sensor that I have doesn't have a sleep mode, and it consumed about 1.5ma - right on spec per it's data sheet. The OLED driver, even while off, also consumed about 1.5mA. After putting them both under a PNP switch, I can turn them off completely :) Unfortunately, the re-init...

    The auto-magic super rZToaster, or something like that..

    Worked on sleep mode a bit. Consumption is down to 3.8mA, and that's probably mostly peripherals (IR sensor and OLED). I'm pretty sure I can cut this down significantly, probably by cutting their voltage off completely while sleeping. Even at 3.8mA, the battery would take almost a month to drain...

    VapCap Induction Heater for Desktop and in Car Use

    So, I believe my side project has grown up a little and deserved a thread of it's own. More importantly, the portside is such an awesome project, it too deserves more of it's own space. Thanks @Pipes for starting this, and thank all you who have supported and helped me move my project along...

    Driven by my love for the @VapCap and inspired by @Pipes awesome idea to use an induction heater for it with his VapCap Induction Heater for Desktop and in Car Use project, I set out to build an induction heater of my own. Since I'm a hardware guy in a software company, I crave for the chance...

    VapCap Induction Heater for Desktop and in Car Use

    little update.. I've cleaned up the code a lot in the time I've had, added watchdog timer, eeprom, and some timing libraries to keep things readable. Then I went back to experimenting with the circuit a bit :D Not the dead one soldered on board. The messy one thats on my desk with digital...

    VapCap Induction Heater for Desktop and in Car Use

    Basically, Induction heating causes an electrical current in any conducting material. This electrical current is what actually causes the heating - lets call this resistive heating. When we heat the VC with a torch lighter, thermal energy is passed to both the cap and the tip (more or less. to...

    :worms: OK guys, the cat is out of the bag. I really wanted to offer you guys a pre-fabbed silicone cup and some relevant parts, but now you're all going to have to scramble to find some paper coffee cups, old server fans, and baking bags! GO GO GO!! :rockon: If anyone has the time and skills...
