    Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud EVO

    Welcome to FC, @Salazar! There are many methods of cleaning described in this thread and probably more in the original Cloud thread. I venture to guess that most of us go pretty simple. Here's one method: A small brush like what is used to apply mascara or these...

    Anti-inflammatory strength of cannabis?

    Thank you very much. And I agree with you wholeheartedly. While I needed heavy oxy the first few weeks, when I started vaping again I found herb to be very synergistic. It also helped with my mental state, and has done a lot to help block withdrawals. The oxy was necessary to control leg...

    Anti-inflammatory strength of cannabis?

    Having just had my 6-week check-up and x-ray, I thought I should post what I learned in the event anyone else has this question. The original question again was whether the anti-inflammatory characteristics in weed would interfere with the process of an orthopedic spinal "fusion". The patient...

    Sorry I didn't get your meaning. Of course, the black at the bottom of the nail is not the same as the resin higher up on the nail.

    I may have missed all replies to the abovposts a few pages back, just in case for clarification if you're new to the VXN . . . The dark residue is unconsumed adulterants which the EVO is separating out for you (as opposed to being consumed from a flame, analogous to how vaping avoids unwanted...

    Good info. Thanks again, Max. :)

    Anti-inflammatory strength of cannabis?

    Sorry for late response . . . pls convey my thx to your squeeze. I've never got bad thoughts from Percocet, but it can give me a king-sized headache if I full dose. NSAIDS do nothing, and I'm forbidden using them anyway because of how they can interfere with the fusion process. According to my...

    It might be worth repeating that the design of the ELB is a key factor in the EVO's extraction efficiency. The ELB is much more than a screen - the pressurization and turbulence resulting from its design are what delivers the efficiency. A glass ELB would be terrific, but IMO not at the...

    Anti-inflammatory strength of cannabis?

    I presume your query is prompted by my "beta test crew" sig. Yea, I confess to having been a strong proponent of the Cloud since the get go, and especially the newest generation EVO. (Note: There are knock-offs of the previous gen being sold; IMO best to avoid those.) While there were quite...

    Late here so I must keep this reply short but didn't want the day to end w/o saying how much I appreciate all the comments. I know we all agree that FC is a great community, and the caring interest folks here have for one another proves that. Thank you all. I'm going to take the...

    Anti-inflammatory strength of cannabis?

    Hey friends, I'm hoping someone here can help me with an important medically related question . . . A month ago I had major orthopedic surgery, specifically a spinal joint fusion. In this procedure a bone graft is inserted in the joint in place of the disc that has degenerated. The body's...

    Well my t-break extends another several weeks but I lost my self-control and just had to try my new Limited Edition HydraFoot 2.0. I only did a 1/4 or less of an ELB the last couple of evenings along with my HydraLine. A new observation is that the HT sits pretty close to the inverted EVO and...

    Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud EVO

    Received my HydraFoot 2.0. Won't have the op for a real vaping test for another month (medical forced t-break), but I did do a simulation with the HF and my HydraLine water-filled along with the EVO with a half-filled ELB. In other words, everything the same but w/o heat. Mostly I wanted to...

    Re flowers in the nail . . . as mentioned, the ELB is specifically designed for flowers. There are two factors at work, pressurization and turbulence. This is what enables the superior extraction. With bud in the nail these characteristics would not apply and with that the superlative...

    - Turn your EVO on at max. When green, wait ~15 minutes for the unit to build thermal mass. The top should be very hot to touch, almost too hot. - Drop setting to 3 - Fill ELB loosely 1/4-1/2 full - Take a short primer hit - Then take a long steady pull - not hard/fast. Repeat. What result...

    @Dabowski , I forgot to mention this in my previous post. IME at least it's been important. I too have Mobius pieces, and I can milk the big bubbler with a long steady pull. I find a short primer hit helps a lot, too. Personally I really prefer this compared to the sharp hard bong style hits...

    Give this a try: Turn the unit on at max, you will probably get green in a few minutes. That indicates that the heater has reached the setting. Now wait for the thermal mass to build up, in this test wait 20 minutes. Is the top section (above the screws) very hot to touch? If it is, dial...

    The HL is my regular piece. It sits fine on even the newer, smaller base hydrafoot - used it just last night. That said, I agree with Stu that a Deadfoot stand is probably safer; when I'm really ripped I find it easier to place the HL on the stand because I don't have to think about it.

    Take a look at the 2nd pic in @S1N3's great post here: http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/vapexhale-cloud-evo.11357/page-153#post-584733 The rim has a slightly smaller diameter than the top edge of the EVO joint, upon which it rests. The nail is grasped by the hollow "handle" that rises up...
