I notice there are a pair of little "bumps" on the shiny silver part of the induction heater board. Can the coil be soldered to any part of this flat region, or does it need to be soldered to the little blobs?

Nice. I used a momentary switch but I find it a little frustrating to hold down for so long so I might well SWITCH over to using a toggle switch instead. P.S. See my post above. You might want to solder the coil instead of plugging it into those blue plugs.

So I just received my replacement induction heater for the one I burned. It wasn't packed very securely and the pair of coils are bent: How robust are they? Is this a big problem and I should send it back for a replacement? Or I should just bend them back into place and continue with my...

I see, thanks. I have confidence that my next attempt will go smoother with your advice in mind. Thank you for that, and for trailblazing this whole field. In the few uses I had of vapcap induction heating I knew this was the way forward. You are a gentleman!

I made one of these and destroyed it within a day!! :( I made another thread about it http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/i-built-a-vapcap-induction-heater-but-broke-it-within-a-day.43755/#post-1412829 but I thought I would ask my questions here too... I had several happy uses, and on the last...

I also got my ideas from that thread but I didn't see that post. Mine is connected to the wall with a 12V power supply, not batteries. I didn't realise that was too much for the driver, as I bought items recommended from that thread. Unfortunately I re-ordered the same unit before seeing the...

Was working quite nicely, enjoyed several bowls of vapcap. These are the components, now dismantled for debugging purposes: Then on my last attempt to use it I noticed the LEDs were flickering and making a clicky high pitched noise. Then I saw smoke rising from the pair of coils and that...

I can vouch for these. I bought 3 like a year ago. 2 died after many months of faithful service and 1 still works like a charm. Very cheap so I'm not bothered about replacing them, I feel like they had a good innings.

Interesting... so the glass tub is actually an e-cig glass tank. And it's a tube, not a cup shape... I think I've only seen battery powered designs so far. Does anyone know of a way of making it plug into the wall? Is there some kind of power supply you can get that will supply the right...

I've been trying to go through this thread to find the info I need but I'm stuck on something. I've ordered the induction heater unit evreybody uses. I notice that the coil is covered with some enamel coating. Does this mean that the vapcap can touch the coil and the user doesn't get a shock...

Holy shit. Since learning to use this properly I haven't used my Cloud Evo once (which was my daily driver at home). I'm amazed how you can keep reheating it many times and it never combusts, as long as you listen out for the clicks. I find it quite conservative in terms of not roasting the...

Yep I figured out how to use this contraption. You guys weren't lying! :ko: By the way, this was the most useful advice to me:

Having read the guidelines people have provided here, I'm sure I've just been using it wrong. I only tried it over a gas stove because I couldn't find a torch lighter. I'm gonna give it another go. But this thread made me go back and use my Vaponic for the first time in years. GOD DAMN! I...

I'm kind of disappointed with my Vapcap M. It's just been small, underwhelming hits. Maybe I just haven't learned how to use it to its fullest. I got it because I wanted something for fast hits. I love my Cloud Evo but it can make a bowl last about 45 minutes. Just putting it out there - I...

Is that a Vapexhale Cloud Evo?

You were indeed. In the end, popcorn was greatly appreciated. I've gotta say, this machine is absolutely crazy. It's like a bong that just keeps going and going, and doesn't kill your throat. I haven't felt this fucked up in years! It's like I remember when I was a teenager! But I don't have...

I just got one of these - my first desktop vape. So I'm opening up the package and I see they've thrown in a bag of popcorn. I'm like "what the fuck is this, why are they putting all kinds of bullshit in here..." Then I used it. Then I look over at the box again and I'm like "DUUUUUDE...

I thought I'd add some shit you SHOULDN'T buy also... This wasn't terrible but it broke after not long: These were bloody awful. Barely worked once, and stank up the place of melted plastic: This required a Schwarzenegger thumb to operate for long enough to heat up the shit. Also burns...

Yeah there's a wheel that adjusts the size of the flame. I have it producing a flame of about this size: Whoops realized that isn't the most helpful photo for estimating size, so here's the lighter next to an ipod for comparison:

I don't have a VapCap but a Vaponic, which is reasonably similar in principle and usage. I have used one of these https://www.amazon.co.uk/KitchenCraft-COLOURS-BLOWTORCH-x/dp/B000NN40BO quite effectively for some time. The trigger has gone a little funny but it still works. Holds quite a...
