    Why isn’t silver more commonly used in vapes?

    So since the Anvil, we’ve seen a deluge of butane vapes and mods built on the high conductivity high mass meta. Copper is nearly perfect for the “high conductivity” part of this application, if it wasn’t for the fact bare copper oxidises. Nanoparticles from copper oxide have been unquestionably...

    What’s it like with an SS tip on the FMJ? I’ve only used the Vong tip so far Wondering if I should try and max out the thermal mass or if there’s a sweet spot, and anything past it is diminishing returns

    A little hack I’ve discovered for pulling and holding hot FMJ caps. You can push the lid of a stash against the cap to hold it, which will allow you to pull the DV out of the cap @Vape_Or_Die420 I don’t know if these silver FMJ are a UK only thing, but if you have a search on Google I imagine...

    Ah yes so it is! You can’t order them in this country so I’m not sure how it ended up in my order, not that I’m complaining as the wood is beautiful Yes I’ve certainly noticed less roastiness with this FMJ, it’s also nice to hit a DV and not have that “rush to the click” feeling, just chilled...

    I’m really enjoying my new ‘21 vong with this XL silver FMJ. This performs just as well as an anvil for me. Not seen is cooling unit from @RogueGuy which does a great job of cooling the huge hits this setup provides I’ve never seen a ‘21 vong with this wood though?

    Thermal Accumulator by phattpiggie vs Anvil by Vestratto

    @Momor I use a small pocket size quad torch and get sub 30 second heat ups for a full extraction on the TA. That’s using flower. Only downside is the quad torch has about 4-5 bowls worth before a refuel is needed. Best compromise funnily enough is the Firefox that Anvil users enjoy. Same heat...

    I see Aliexpress have both ruby and SiC balls in a 3.1mm size… They’d open up the airflow an awful lot, just wondering how much thermal mass you’d have to trade Might have to purchase some and experiment, maybe mix a few 3mm in as well

    Thermal Accumulator by phattpiggie

    Sat here puffing on my TA and it’s got me thinking. This is pretty much the only portable butane vape with a heater that the user can totally tear down and rebuild, and make it perform exactly as they desire. Thermal mass, material choice, airflow, size of material, mixture of material size and...

    Medtainer alternatives?

    I’ve just found the thread! That’s a lot less complex than I thought it was. You and @Arawfish might have sold me on one of these

    Medtainer alternatives?

    I was looking at those, have you tried one? From the photos it’s hard to tell how all the parts are laid out, and how big the herb storage is It’s the most compelling option so far, looks pretty tough and modular

    Thermal Accumulator by phattpiggie vs Anvil by Vestratto

    I filled mine with ~55 3mm rubies. I like the ruby better than glass performance wise At this size, removing or adding a couple balls makes a big difference to airflow, without affecting thermal mass enough to change the performance in a noticeable way. Putting more balls into the heater isn’t...

    With these next gen butanes and ballers, you really don’t need anything else. Anvil/DV/VM with a TA and a nice baller vape and there’s not much you can’t do. That’s not to say you can’t want anything else though I also like the recent trend towards simplicity in design. Hopefully those...

    Thermal Accumulator by phattpiggie vs Anvil by Vestratto

    You’re absolutely right. If you have a wand it works great, the timeout on it happens to be the perfect heating time. Piggie has also said there will be a timed IH for the TA that basically makes the lack of click irrelevant I don’t know how handy you are with creatively using screens and...

    Thermal Accumulator by phattpiggie vs Anvil by Vestratto

    I think the issue as well, and I will admit I was part of the issue at the start of the TA thread and with my initial review when I received it, is the comparisons to the Anvil. If you try and use it like one, it’s brilliant but @Comfortably Numb is correct in that the Anvil does it easier and...

    Plus, you’ve gotta support a fellow Brit :) Piggie’s work is beautiful, I got the bocote stem TA and it’s truly a product from a master of his craft. The learning curve is easy, heat it like a vapman and you’ll find it very hard to combust. Once you’re comfortable step that heat right up...

    Anvil by Vestratto

    Nobody has said this. Don’t strawman please. Anyway, they know the market they’re in. They’ve been told about this issue, they’ve read the close calls. They know it’s industry standard to describe these things as herbal vaporisers, aromatises. Which isn’t wrong to do by the way, as far as I...

    Thing is as well, no matter how clean they keep their site this thread will also come up with a Google search by customs agents. All those milking vids and shots of anvil stood proudly next to medical Mary. As well as other sites selling it that do mention specifically what it is designed for...

    Anvil by Vestratto

    Oh no… these guys literally print an itemised list of EXACTLY what it is and the price. I wish I’d taken a photo of the previous package I received, it leaves absolutely zero wiggle room. Funny how you’re able to use discreet names but they aren’t? I’m starting to think they just can’t be...

    That piece is your customs requiring the declaration believe it or not. According to Vestratto anyway. Whether that’s true or not I can’t say, you’re the Canadian so you’d know better than me USA, EU, I’ve had no issues at all. Perfectly discreet packages. I’ve only ever had this issue with...
