    Discontinued Pax Vaporizer by Ploom

    It definitely does take a while to "dial in" a new vape. I learned that with e-cigs and my experience with plant matter vaping so far has only reinforced that view. I got my Pax today and I started out with a mini-load using a spare Pax screen as a pressure plate and then a rolled up pipe...

    Discontinued Pax Vaporizer by Ploom

    About the only thing I could think of to add would be a grinder. Conduction vapes, of which the Pax is one, like tightly packed fine ground material to work with.

    Welcome to Fuck Combustion...Tell us about yourself here!

    I can heartily recommend doing that! I've read every page of the vapes I was interested in and I've learned so much that I don't consider my time wasted at all! As with others who have posted here, I too have joined recently. I've been an e-cig user for long enough to make just about anything...

    I had two possible replies : 1). No. :doh: 2). Who didn't see that coming! :lol: In any event, lovin' it! :)

    I'd like to offer to act as an impartial third party to help settle the dispute. I'd like to. However, I've definitely vaped too much. I'm not sure how to proceed at this point, is there need of a fourth party? I don't know if that is described in the forum rules or not. :| I'm very happy...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Fair enough. I'll see if I can duplicate the issue when I get mine. I'm good at breaking things but fortunately, I'm also good at not only fixing things but not breaking them to the point of their not being able to be fixed. ;) I'll post back on this after I've had a chance to check it out...

    I don't suppose you could man-handle it again to get the section of rubber wedge where it isn't suppose to be and then get a picture of it and post it here, could you? I would think it would be very useful both to refer people with problems to as well as Da Vinci for future planning.

    Private Conversation Privacy

    There is no possible way to say it better except to say that the only possible "guarantee" of privacy, is trust. Personally, I feel as safe here as I have on boards I've been the one with the keys to. That doesn't mean I don't watch what I say though. :cool:

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    That is also compounded by the fact that a 'con' in one situation can be a 'pro' in another situation of the same user so beyond the basics of battery life, bowl size, temperature control and ease of maintenance, everything else is very situational. Don't worry, there seem to be plenty of...

    Cool music to vape to, you know the tunes that move you

    Sorry to kinda sorta seque out into left field but this will be my last comment on the subject but, I just gotta say ... You got serious skillz!!!! Most drummers I know need a bass player to keep them together, you are tight by yourself. That said, I'm not a drummer although I do play the...

    That was an especially nice listen! Thank you very much! Although definitely styled differently than Kintaro, there are transitions and nuances that are similar in many ways. I definitely like it and again, thank you for sharing it. I've been dubbed the "Android" at work because it seems...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    From what I've gleaned from the experience of others here, running the Ascent, or pretty much any vaporizer, through a "burn in" process before loading up and inhaling whatever was in there prior to your loading it. It's just a good idea in general. If no out-gassing, little wisps of vapor...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    I'm sorry to hear you're disappointed, with your EQ. :lol: I should be receiving my extra stealthy Ascent in a couple of days. Extra stealthy because the center trim on the one I ordered matches the wood trim on the interior of my car so I'm hoping that if I set it down on the center console...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    That is, after all, all that really matters. I'm not a cloud chaser but at the same time, I like to have some vapor so as to know approximately how much I have medicated. For what it's worth, with a screen positioned just far enough away from the heater element to prevent combustion, I was...

    Thanks for the info.

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    You and I both. I plan to use the Ascent in primarily a conductive, as opposed to convective mode and for even heat distribution throughout the herbal mass, the finer the better. I like to freeze before grinding so that it grinds finer but also, generates a fair amount of kief at the same...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Thanks for the pic!!! That is VERY sweet looking! I'm still glad I got what I did though. They do have some very tempting combinations so far. It could be interesting to see if they come out with more skins. I've read your comments on the spacer concept and I've been very interested in...

    I haven't tried it but I don't know why it wouldn't/couldn't be done. If the end gets warm, form a first seal around it with one's index and thumb curved around it and then pucker up to one's hand. Years ago I've done it with pipes of various kinds.

    If one knows how much one has to add to reach 100%, one would also know how far from 0 one is.

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Thanks for the welcome! If a LiPo is not to be used for a while, reducing it's charge to about 90% is best and if one can keep the batteries cool or even cold, their continual decay will essentially be put on hold during the time they are maintained that way.
