    Pen Focus Vaporizer

    I'd like to have some OG Kush of the present. That's just a reflection, does look like vape though. Or in electronics lingo 'magic smoke'. The white thing is the faux battery.

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    I'll be giving this with my FF2 so I'll share it before it's gone: It's a DIY 12V-24V mod for the FF external charger. Happy to assist anyone who wants to build their own. Edit: Also not to difficult to make one that is powered by 18650s.

    @stickstones My fault, had to open second link in new tab to get to the pdf link. Clicking on it was just downloading garbage. Thanks @jay87

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Thanks for uploading the info. Puts an end to the guessing game. Was that the full of it? I'd like to read the 14 page pdf if it's not a problem.

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    I don't in any way think that the QC on malfunctions is terrible. Like anything you buy there's always some that will have manufacturer issues. Usually the company sorts these out in manufacturing with revisions most will never be aware of. In my opinion" The problem lies where a purchaser...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Ask Firefly for the MSDS of the solder they use. The issues were to much draw restriction and overheating. Which seemed to be related in these units. The fix was with the body. If I wasn't able to try multiple units side by side I wouldn't of known what the right amont of draw restriction a...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    @stickstones: Solder plays no role in the common restrictive draw issue. If it does on someone's unit then I would say that is a 'red marble' case. And there was no inconsistency in the rest of the soldering inside the units the quality of workmanship was the same in all. 3 units I fixed all had...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    @stickstones: I'm not new to the vaping practice, I've tried vaping quite a few times during the late eighties early nineties but then imported Mexican was most abundant, so I was not very impressed. Over the past 4 years though I have vaped much more regularly with commercial and diy units...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Two of these maybe: http://www.taydaelectronics.com/dg350-screw-terminal-block-2-positions-3-5mm.html Joined together with the 2 middle pins removed and outer pins shortened might work. The two outer pins line up fine with the center of the FF2 pins and easy to connect your power leads to it.

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    I'm curious to what peoples daily consumption was when smoking compared to now vaping. I have one out of four friends who has a Firefly2 and is completely satisfied. Her daily consumption was around 1 gram. The rest of us smoked much more. I smoked 3-5 x .8gram joints a day with 3-10 .2 gram...

    Nobody died so i'm not sorry. :peace: I've learnt much about this unit and the inner workings of convection type vaporizers so I got my $330 out of it in education. And am more than happy to share the info with any interested.

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Unfortunately this thread with all it's helpful info was not this advanced when many people including myself preordered one. All we could go on was what the manufacturer said with their video and such and what little reviews that where available from the net. Ones that raved about this product...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Exactly my feeling too... Definitely not a device for heavy users. Concentrates give a much better experience, but the draw restriction and overheating is a joke. This should have been honestly marketed as a device for occasional to light users, made primarily for concentrates with the option...

    Discontinued The Grasshopper

    I take it as the amount of 'residue' produced by the GH, not the cleaner. I don't yet own one so I can only throw this out there... Conductive grease? https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005T8S81Q/ref=cm_cr_arp_mb_bdcrb_top?ie=UTF8 Or a similar product. Maybe could be used for a test. As micro...

    Want to get huge cool rips from either Focus? For <$5 you can make one of these: 20" - 3/8 i.d. X 1/2" o.d tubing 1 - barb tee to fit tubbing Not the prettiest but works well. Try 392F or higher with only one air flow hole open.

    @mitchgo61: It's great that they tell you this: If I was to plumb for someone and they asked what solder I use I'd simply tell them this... This is the silver solder I use and it's MSDS... http://www.bernzomatic.com/product/ssw300-3-oz-plumbing-solder/...

    Same boat here. I am more than willing to be part of an 'open source' community based vaporizer team. Let's build what WE want a vaporizer to be.
