    afreak, there is no standard "minutes per stem" or such thing. For instance, I like very small stem tip loads, good for maybe three nice pulls. I never fill the tip full. You have nothing to compare to? Would that be for making a purchase decision? The truth is I also have nothing to compare...

    OK, we will try again. I had a nice post 98% complete and hit the wrong key on the laptop.............GONE! Pissed! Over it now. First news on the Bubblers is we survived the first rush last night. We still have a few in stock and will do our best to keep it that way. Last nights bubbler...

    No mom, clean ones this time. Nice big straight doubles of Tanqueray, my favorite. I'll stop soon though. I never get too far out of whack. Now that deserves, what, my first???? :rofl:

    stinkbud, do you have SS tipped stems or brass tipped stems? And dude, let me know via Email as names and screen names matching does not happen in the bosses head. Oh, a few maybe, but there are so many names and I am getting older all the time. Yup, another Tanqueray night. Big town day. Home...

    Yer good Gonzo. I understand. No apologies needed. I did get a few more this round so we are good for awhile. They are a good deal for sure. Tim said they should retail for close to a bill.

    Hey dudes and dudesses. Go slow like a turtle when ordering the bubbler. I am getting some impatient folks who are taking them down on inventory but the paypal thing does not work right so they try again and again. Take it easy. I just called Tim and we are on his regular special list so they...

    I love it when this old impert(opposite of an expert) gets to learn new things. @kewpcer, I find the logic of lower heat(less watts) from a higher ohm reading resistor completely logical. I have known about ohms law since I was a 'tween' and had my own little Ham Radio 'shack' in my stepdads...

    Cheap High Quality Bubbler

    Our Bubblers which we call the Zapubler will go back in stock tomorrow, Wednesday, at 5 PM Pacific time. They have a 14mm female GonG fitting at the bottom and come with a short 14mm GonG stem to fit Zaps, old and new. http://aromazap.com/stems/upright-glass-bubbler

    OK, kewpcer, I follow that. You first had "current"(amperage) decreases, now you have decreased wattage which of course is related to current used by the device. Answer these Qs: Why does an electrical circuit produce heat at the point of resistance, if there is any resistance somewhere in the...

    More resistor news. Many of you already know this but thought it would be good to repeat. I just reworked a Zap yesterday. The resistor read over 21.5 ohms. I replaced it with one I tested out of the box at exactly 20 ohms. Ran the reworked Zap overnight for testing, etc. Today the same resistor...

    @Magic9-Interesting comment and exactly what I thought for years. The Zap is not broke, you are correct but it can be improved for those who want a little more OR a little less. The VV power supply will be offered as an option. If customers are happy with our stock engine(power supply), they...

    I just grabbed a handful(16) of the standard 5 watt 20 ohm resistors we have always used which are the same ones used in most log vapes. All of them were right at 20 or 20.1 ohms. Specs call for + or - 5% which would be 19-21 ohms. I think the availability of a good VV DC power supply to 15...

    The first VV power supply came in Friday. We are looking at several more designs in the coming weeks. Duh Rick. This is the only way to go. I have been doing 13.8 to 14.2 volts so far. That does seem to be our sweet spot. I would be interested in other thoughts on "just right" voltage. This is...

    Looks like the good old USPS is on track this week! A few more beauties up within the 1/2 hour. Ah, Friday! I love Fridays because tomorrow is Saturday, the beginning of a new work week. When you get older, it is fun to keep going every day. Relax for a day and you stiffen up........errr...

    NewVape, thanks for taking the CRZY leap, especially since you are a vapor newby. We will do our best to make it all work for you. Thank you for the kind words. Will....at least it shows leaving Spokane the day we shipped. That is a good thing. Should be there tomorrow if they are on the ball...

    SmokeStak, you aint no idiot. You just got anxious as I did. See, you have not yet got the word yet. When Rick fucks up, he like to make it better, not just right. One reason we are still around is I believe in customer service as it *should* be. If we goof up, we now have an opportunity to do...

    Emails happening between us now. We will get it. Sorry for being so however I was. It all just happened so fast and I did not get to have any input quickly.

    Aromazap/Myrtlezap/CeramicRockZap

    SmokeStak You are right, you should not have to buy another transformer. Not sure why you did so without talking to me first. Still cold port after 15 minutes? Cold to the touch? Or not hot enough to make vapor? Sorry you are disappointed but shit does happen on occasion. We will fix it if you...

    Looks like we fucked of somehow with your order SmokeStak. My best guess is a bad transformer as we do not check them. We take them out of the big box and put them in the Zap boxes. The Zap was heated overnight and tested. Or, the Zap could have a bad solder joint. Those are my guesses. Do you...
