    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    One of mine had some black specs in it that took me a while to realize was in the glaze. Q-tip+ISO. Does it wash? I avoid the buddy rim. I don't like it. I'll pull the stem about halfway out, but honestly, I rather like using the 14mm adapter. It sticks just the right length out when its all...

    I believe that was the holder for the one already in the unit. It comes with two sets and the 2nd one should be in the foam with the oil cans.

    No worries! If this is the kind of "one" that a person takes "one" for the team, then sign me up! My draws might be smaller than yours, but if they are not, if I understand how you consume, that's about 3 days perhaps? In terms of grind, I run it through a metal 4-piece grinder once. What I...

    @lwien -- Okay. I measured out 0.05g. Turns out, that's more like a normal "pinch." Barely enough to cover the bottom of the bowl. I used the oil can with the lid, and compressed it. I then removed the oil can lid, but left the oil can in there. So, both compressed, then spaced with oil can. I...

    I've not used one, let alone seen one, so I was making a guess. The Wiki page for it is really sparse, so not a lot of information on how it works, but looks like a lot of metal. Is it predominantly glass for the vapor path? Actually *NOT* just as it reads temp. Let it sit for a little bit...

    Sorry I didn't understand your question correctly. At least in older versions, I think the latter case is true. Dreamerr had a v1.0 that she felt was not as efficient as she would like, and although she is not as sensitive to efficiency as you, it is still a priority for her. (Okay, efficiency...

    Welcome to this thread. You might want to take a few minutes and read through the thread. :P :P :P I had answered you the other day, but the flowers really do seem to help with efficiency. Does one *need* them? No. Do YOU *need* them? I'm guessing "yes." Try it with the oil can in place if you...

    Well.... more like 366 pages if you include the Pre-sale thread, the shipping thread, and this thread. (But ignoring things like the Haiku thread or the "should I buy X or Y vape" threads.) :) I don't have a specific recommendation, maybe because there are tons of tools you can use. You can...

    I can unequivocally confirm that Davinci are or are not considering some form of spacer. There. That better? :p :) Yes they are working a few ideas. I believe the rep said so in the very thread. .

    Can you give us a bit more information on your creation?

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Well, it *worked* didn't it? :P I've talked to vtac about this an other bugs in the forum software. For now, that (or PMing a notice) is a work around. I personally hate when I read something, then only by accident realize that more was added/changed that I almost missed.

    Are you running the unit for burn-in? Empty, right? It could be some curing. Keep up the burn-in. [EDIT: Until it goes away.] The screen are for optional use. Glass screens can only have holes so fine. I occasionally get little flakes pulled through. So if you don't mind metal, you can put one...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Well... not from *everything* you have read here, as I have stated a few times that I have only once or twice had a puck issue. I think it might have to do with the stickiness of my green maybe??? [NOTE: @lwien statement is correct if he fires back with "Yup. Everything *I* read, as I...

    OWWWWWW! PINK TEXT. IT BURNS THE EYES! :p Fair enough. I was thinking in terms of packing issues causing poor vapor. But you are correct that poor seals is another issue altogether. I think Sticks made some good points earlier. And personally, I rather like all of the modifications we are...

    Ascent Vaporizer - The Ordering, Shipping, & Other Nonsense thread

    Looks like our rep hasn't been on FC for a while, so probably hasn't seen your message. Cheers :cheers: EDIT: :doh: Just clued in that I think CHAMPS is going on right now, so I expect that everyone is tied up with the tradeshow.

    Ascent Vaporizer - The Ordering, Shipping, & Other Nonsense thread

    Sorry, you have been left hanging for so long. Did you actually speak to @Davinci_vaporizer here on FC, or was this customer service via phone/email/whatever? The rep that is here on FC is someone else in the company than the customer service people. PLease PM/DM @Davinci_vaporizer right away...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Weird. I'm not noticing mine bending, but I have broken quite a few. (If I don't push the top ones in like push pins, I invariably windup breaking a stem or two when I open the bowl after use.) What temp do you vape at @mmenzie? I'm lower temps, almost never going up to 392°F (Benzene). Can you...

    Interesting. I guess that maintains a HIGH level of surface area, which is what the flowers do.

    Yes to the stand. @Adobewan and I were tossing around a few designs for a charging/loading stand. But then bright shinny things came around to distract us... Are you sure you aren't just noticing bent stems you haven't seen before? 430° is a looooooooog way away from >2600°. Can someone...
