Yea it's definitely interesting to see all of the preferences. I don't know what it is with the 21 but I've had an issue with it since the day I got it and have never taken a liking to it. I should try it on the VonG just for science though. I get the feeling George likes super light, wispy...

I appreciate it, and I don't what the issue is but my 21 M has been an awful experience and I really don't know if I'll ever buy another M. I love the VonG but also like to use these natively so I think the Omni is the best bet.

Well I think it's finally time to retire the 21M for good, even with the new seemingly hotter cap and a better IH it just underperforms in every way for me. I might use the stem and put a new tip on it but honestly, it's not even worth that since the upgrades are all cosmetic anyway. Really had...

I think I may have gotten one of these new hot caps. When I ordered the 2019 PhantoM from George's Empty Pants sale, I also ordered a non-captive cap to go with it. It's stamped 2022 and has completely transformed my 2021 M on my new VHB Carbon II compared to the captive that came with it stock...

Appreciate it. I figured that was the case but wanted to make sure.

Just got mine on Friday from the 420 sales and it's fantastic. Quality is unbelievable on this thing and I'm having some fun trying to dial in the glass. As weird as it sounds, it's hard to get used to stopping at the click haha.....after having an Apollo II for a couple years I'm conditioned to...

I got one of the recent 2019 PhantoM's from George's pants and there are some minor quality issues but nothing too bad or even noticeable without really looking, and certainly nothing that affects the performance. I'm not upset they charged $100 for it, I was willing to pay because I love the...

I ended up using the tip over the condenser and a q-tip to help position it. The half bowl is tricky but once you get it once and know the feel of when it clicks in, you'll get it really easy after that. Like they say, the first time is always the most awkward. :)

There's two parts to a torch flame the really bright blue part you can see well and the much more transparent outer blue flame. I try to keep my dynavaps about an 1/8th to a quarter inch away from the tip of the more transparent "outer" flame. Sorry if you need the metric conversion.

I've actually been experimenting with this some and I do think it works. I don't know how well because I don't do it each time, but a few good seconds of heat on the fins near the base of the bowl have absolutely given me a little bit more heat. It's something that's worth a try, you'll just...

I think more of us may need to start really doing something like this to get through. The times I've seen the caps brought up on Tea Time and other places, George dismisses it saying the only difference are the indents and we all know that isn't the only difference.

If I have learned anything about these it's that there are some pretty universal characteristics that carry across the user base for the most part, but everyone still has their individual experience with them. I think you will do just fine with it, it works just not how I would like it to work...

I used a 2019 for almost 2 years straight so the 21 has taken me a while to get used to, but even using it by itself for a few months there's zero redeeming qualities about it except the stem design to me unfortunately. That's just my opinion, I also am not a person who tastes much flavor out of...

I pulled the '21M out the other day to use for a while. I've been going all VonG and Xmax v3 lately and the '21M is just completely out-classed in every way by the '19 M. The stem of the 21 is the only usable part, but the tip is just garbage IMO. Right now I only have an Apollo II and it just...

I appreciate that! I really thought hard at the Want and wanted to get it because of the overwhelming praise I see but something about the carbon II and being able to adjust it really spoke to me, plus there's less stuff to lose haha I'm sure I'll end up with a wand someday though, we always...

Just placed an order for their 420 special black/purple carbon II. I noticed there was an option for a UV led that isn't on the normal listings so I had to see what that is all about. Excited to get it in 5 to 7 weeks. :)

Good to know, thank you for the info! I love when stoner engineering gets its PhD haha.

Thanks for the help! I'll look into it and start digging through the thread.

Any 510 setups you recommend? I'd be interested in trying something like that. The main thing keeping me from using mine is dealing with the battery.

It seems like a shame to have to dirty up two wonderfully new things. Tip is from the Vong pre-order and I can't bare to get it dirty yet, but it sure does look good and the stem is my new Rogue Wax Works Robusto.
