I'd like to hear a little more about how people apply the beeswax w/coconut oil. I remember reading that as well, but looking at sticks of beeswax and a jar of coconut oil, its not really clicking. I was thinking of taking a beaker and a hot plate to get the mix nice and warm so it would all...

I think its worth pointing out that Wake's nitecore incident was not really an 18650 battery incident but rather a small electronics incident that really could have happened to anything plugged in. He admits that he very well could have been using a knockoff nitecore. That being said, it is...

I didn't send anything off to the lab, so I really don't know what it is, but if you look closely at my swab, there are a lot of little black/gray "sticks" mixed in: Grasshopper Threadds The bits of resin you see in the photo are from rolling around on that slick pad (I know, shit process, but...

Do you still use your broken stems and gongs? I've noticed them in a bunch of your photos. Sorry if this has been discussed. I really like the nano. By my estimation, it may be the best way to vape. Or, at least my favorite so far. In addition, I really appreciate the super clean and pure...

I have the ryot case but not the orbiter. I have seen the orbiter before and I don't think it would be any problem to fit in the piper along with its whip. Maybe not with that stem on it though. lol I didn't expect that you'd make that recommendation, but you were replying to a post where...

beautiful setup! I kinda sorta really want an orbiter. :D You have batteries for days. Ryot makes a little bag called the piper. It looks like its the perfect stash spot for the orbiter + GH. It has basically a little pen slot that the hopper fits in and then the other part would stash...

No way I'm putting that stuff in the mouthpiece threads! In my opinion, this is a very ominous result from my test. I'm quite concerned, especially with the TI. I see much less evidence of metal shavings on the SS. Since my first cleaning, the SS hasn't shown much or any signs of metal...

This is the Q-Tip from my week-longish test. It was turned a shade of black/gray after wiping the mouthpiece threads inside and out. The photo doesn't really pick up how dark it is, but there are dark-colored bits in there. closeup of my threads:

According to his ebay history he sold a few for around $500 at least six months ago which would mean he started selling in January, right? There is a point in his reviews where it transitions from "in the last six months" to "in the last year." Looks like he sold a bunch really quickly at...

I don't think the july batch has a bunch of duds. I only know the story of two of them. One was not ok and mine has been fine. The one that was not ok had no problems getting a body exchange. Oh... you must have missed our discussion several pages back about the resistors. It isn't...

Ours came from his July batch. What doesn't make sense?

@dac13 and I ordered ours from that guy on ebay. They are older serials and they are lacking the extra resistors on the PCB. My guess is that they are refurbs or maybe b-grade stock, but they look like new and are legit. GHL is probably in a tough $$$ spot and is using the extra revenue...

Exactly. Lead begins to vaporize over 1500F The main drivers behind RoHS standards, which the FF2 solder meets/exceeds, are to protect the environment and people that manufacture and decommission/disassemble electronics thereby coming in direct contact with solder and other electrical...

my honest opinion*.... safe: yes, likely by all standards known to man. designed in a way that gives me a warm fuzzy feeling all over: no, not really It's an important distinction. My warm/fuzzy standards are likely irrational. I feel exactly the same about the S&B products. Very few...

One thought from me to streamline your process is to go with two stems and two cords. Each of you take a stem and a cord and pass only the nano back and forth. It would allow you each to customize temp and pack for yourself. When one is using the nano the other can be repacking for their next...

For the second set of pics (the good ones) I was using a ring flash. It's a flash that wraps around the barrel of the camera lens. It's ideal for macro work or any application where you want even lighting and reduced shadowing. I just have a cheap one that you attach to a standard camera...

This has been discussed a bit. Unclear whether it is a bug or a feature. Sometimes after a long period since last hit, the device will completely cool (AFAIK) and go into a sleep mode. The next button press goes straight solid. If you let go and press again, you should get blinks and a...

Just stopping in, not a lot of time. I think the brownish gunk around my SS is excess rosin used in circuit board assembly to help the flow of solder and prevent "cold" joints. (Not the fun kind of rosin you may want to stick back in the bowl) This stuff is pretty inert by itself on a PCB...

A closer look: TI PCB: SS PCB: It looks like my SS has two additional resistors installed. This could be related to the conductivity of the metal or it could just be different models from different times. A couple of notes/anecdotes: - These came from different sources and neither of...

Weird, man. All the photos, mine, yours and others from recent posts, show up just fine for me. On mobile and through a desktop browser. I followed the "Already on Web" instructions from the link you posted. The images in my post look broken to you? edit: There is some variation in mine...
