For sure, that is even more scary to me. There's a huge amount of total energy available for mischief, far far more than in the MFLB battery. They make a big deal of the safety caps, IMO for very good reason. "Playing with fire" as it were...... Excellent question. I think it's clear MFLB...

What? They dangle it in front of me and I can't order one? Talk about 'cruel and inhuman'...... OF

I think you're right, the evidence of all the hard work is there. 'Cut and try' at it's finest. No, I don't think it's 'just math' but if the math doesn't fit it's not going to happen? And remember "Bumble Bees can't fly", ask any expert on the matter. OF

First off, howdy! Welcome to the Forum, lots of good folks around which I'm sure you know if you've been lurking. Your situation is pretty common, I think. Often guys will save 'the second half' of the load for bedtime as it tends to have a higher concentration of the fractions with good...

Yup, that's how I see it. Can't beat Ohm's Law, even with a good (or bad) lawyer on your side. If you want to keep the same general power, and raise the voltage you must reduce the current. Only way to do that is to increase the resistance. I actually understated the necessary change above...

I understand the urge to improve the beloved Box, but don't get excited about changing battery types from NiMH to Li-ion. It's not happening here. The rules are against it. To do so you'd have to radically change the screen and trough. MFLB is based on the idea there's about .75 Volts...

I did some digging on 'what is the best 18350 for this application a while back: http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/davinci-miqro.30485/page-20#post-1359098 I got a lot of information from the e-cig guys, bought some and tested them for capacity. Those guys were measurably better. I didn't...

Yup. If it rotates (to snap out) rather than slide up (as with FIERCE) it means the stem is being levered out with the adapter, snapping off at the top of the oven? If, OTOH, the stem doesn't extend down into the bowl (as happens with F2 when normally used) it's not a problem. I share your...

This has come up a time or two before as I recall. I still don't think it's really possible, given the difference in the way the MP attaches to each unit. Does anyone see how this could actually work without changing the body of the F2? I don't (or didn't then). FWIW, I'm sure HR has...

Check with your local 'waste disposal service' ('the garbage guys'). Here you can collect batteries of all types, but them in a plastic bag on top of the 'can' (plastic bin in our case) on collection day and the driver puts the bag in a bin on the truck. They are sorted by type (some have...

Yup. You can use (almost) any 18650, the power demand is relatively small. However, no 18650 available today will run it longer. Arizer uses the top pick for the job.......as you'd expect them to? Panasonic NCR 18650B. OF

True enough, sure as the race goes to the swift, the next generation will take our places (much to their collective chagrin). It will be fun to watch, I'm not at all sure they will be as prepared for it as we were. Our parents, OTHO had their parents example to follow. A world where you'd...

Makes sense to me. Remember one of the rules is 'heat flows from hot to cold'. That means that all along that path the heat is dropping as heat lost to other places is removed. Like a leaking hose, as the water escapes on the way to the sprinkler, the pressure drops. Anything the heat has to...

The poker handle will never get as hot as the part contacting the stove, which is what we need to happen if we want to make vapor (the herb has to basically match the cup temperature), the shank is much thicker This means a big factor over fine wires because you have more surface per unit of...

Thanks, Jill, musta been you I was recalling. In the early days of Ascent we got good results with 'glass flowers' like these: https://www.amazon.com/Smoking-Screens-Flower-Screen-Assorted/dp/B01F8ZGHMQ We found that not only did it reduce the load size (not the real goal) but there was extra...

I doubt it, at least not to any significant degree (pun intended.....), probably not measurable, even? Only the tips of a small fraction of the wires will make scant contact, and SS is a poor conductor of heat. Overall I bet a very small factor considered to the slowdown of the normal...

Good question, in theory it should. Aside from cosmetics I'm not sure it really matters. OF

Not to be disrespectful or anything, but that's not really all that big of a deal. I mean many of us were able to that, then........ OF

IIRC someone did test the pearl loose, but had some problems? I doubt there's enough room for two. OF

Good observation. I think if you watch carefully the top is 'less vaped' than the bottom part, I believe because heat is lost up the stem (slowly, but it has an effect)? To me the key observation is, however, that heat soaks increase production (more time for heat to conduct in and replace...
