    PBW & the Chemistry of Clean

    Indeed it is, but use it as directed! It's a detergent, wash stuff in it, don't decide to soak it for a long time. Guys have etched 'cheap' (even top class) glass that way. And watch getting it on metal that has a finish, it's been known to eat the finish? Otherwise give it a go. You can...

    Check around for 'storm proof' lighters. They use a catalyst element to keep the flame from blowing out. My personal one is ten years old, still humming along, but apparently no longer made? https://www.amazon.com/windmill-eg-405-fire-lighter/dp/b0002pz6k2?tag=indifash06-20 This one should...

    DaVinci MIQRO

    Great! Thanks for the good word. I don't know about you, but I like happy endings....... You know packing a small 'power bank' (or even one of the small vapes that 'doubles for one') in the field would probably do the same as plugging in the charger? You're very welcome, of course, glad to...

    Great! Please let us know how it goes, there's others that could benefit? And, of course, no sense in other trying it if it doesn't help......... Good luck. Regards, OF

    If I'm following right, you're correct. At least that's what I thought when I first got mine and swapped the battery in an out. I figured it's a pretty common issue with this sort of gear (micro controller battery powered stuff). Normally such devices don't really stop when you tell them to...

    I understand the idea, and to be honest I usually consider easy replacement a plus. But there are reasons for the trade off. Smaller packages and 'cheaper' (lest costly) production among them. Who among us isn't a fan of cheaper cost and smaller vapes (with the same performance)? There's...

    Just a thought, before you give up, you might try giving @Mojo a PM directly? And wait a bit, IIRC the man travels some to places the internet isn't all that reliable? Good luck. In any event having a reliable VM (or two.....) around is a good thing. Regards to all. OF

    Listen to the man, LP is wise.......even if he does live where it goes the other way when you flush and the locals throw bent sticks and all. Funny rules on beer, too. Just one time. After that my advice is to fully change then immediately enjoy a session so you don't leave it at full charge...

    It really shouldn't be fully charged when you get it. Full charge, especially at higher temperatures, destroys capacity over time. It should be about 3/4 charged for storage (shipping and delivery). I always recommend a full charge, even 'overcharge' before first serious discharge. Using...

    Great news! Glad I missed the humor, thanks for setting it straight. That's twice you've made me happy in one night. Perhaps not a record, but nice none the same. Indeed. Truth be known I got ahead of you. Now I'm going to load up and try to catch up....... OF

    Thanks, I think you understand my point. It obviously can't heat hotter than it is, the first Law of Thermodynamics says heat can only flow from hot to cold. The hottest thing in the system is the hottest thing in the system. I agree I don't see an advantage to a hybrid, but think you're...

    I certainly don't expect it to as I thought I'd explained? Evidently not. It's an experiment trying to separate conduction from convection effects as much as possible (I suspect that while we can completely eliminate convection by not drawing, some conduction will occur still with the stem...

    Have you actually tried it yourself? Do you think it performs the same? For that matter, does the OP? Back to they bicycle analogy, if you push it at a few MPH, that's not the same as riding at 20. You can't really ride and push at the same time? I suggest this experiment confirms no useful...

    Very substandard vapor, at least it's been so when I've tried it. As I'd predict. Folks get vapor 'in the low 300s' but what you get at that level is modest by 390 standards. Certainly not what you'd expect given the temperature setting? If the load is already at 390 (by conduction)...

    I think I said sales types ('suits') are a necessary part of the team? In fact, in the very text you quote me saying: "I know those 'suits', or at least many like them. In the end they are a necessary part of the team, without them you have no customers.....and then no job?" I didn't say they...

    I think that's very true. Not sure about 'the crumble test' but empirical results say it's happening? The issue is the rate and ratio of THC to 'other stuff'? Consider that evaporation takes place below boiling point. I think folks get confused by looking at all the temperature charts...

    While I disagree with the first (as long as there's similarity), we are of one accord on the second point. If you don't think scientific principles are important........ For myself, this should be a place where we use technical terms accurately or not at all. Thanks for participating in any...

    No, I'm expressing my opinion of how the world works. And why. You decide why some see it different? This is not the first Forum, I've had this disagreement with folks on the Solo/Air/ArGo pages and VapMan (a personal favorite). Here's a simple experiment I've suggested there which might get...

    Yep, as I said above, "I get it this is a common belief, aided by advertising from various makers" HR is not alone here for sure. I appreciate Capitalism, since 'everyone' says it what would you expect their 'suits' (sales types) to insist on? Doesn't make it so, though. For the (IMO solid)...

    I still don't believe there is any such animal as a hybrid here. One or the other. The two modes use different temperatures in different ways. Convection simply won't heat the load hot enough at the available (cup) temperatures......even it the air actually got that hot which I maintain it...
