    Fuck you !!!

    As long as we are sharing pictures, I found on of @lwien from a few years back: Oh, and fuck @lwien 'cause that was the best night of my life, and he never called after like he said he would! . [EDIT: "Just a sweet Transvestitte from Transsexual, Transyl-VAPE-ia..."]

    Here MMark, these are yours -- I think you dropped them. n s o u ', , , , . . . :rofl: EXACTLY what I was afraid of. But glad you are getting good production from it. As the days go on, it seems as if those of us that have good units, are really enjoying them.

    Naw. Don't know why the stem moved in your case. I've done quite a few 430° tests on my end and never had that problem. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Just be mindful of the issue and don't push the screen-stem down. Only three of us (that I am aware of) have seen this happen, and the...

    Oh, you were the other person! Was trying to figure this out the other night. That wasn't a heat issue. That was a position issue. When you push the screen-stem down (intentionally or accidentally) when the unit is closed, you essentially bolt the unit shut. It's like a glass dead-bolt. I...

    @grokit Thanks for the update/tips. About how tall is the pipestone, as a percentage of the height of the bowl? 50%? 75%? I'm with you on this. I wouldn't want to subject parts that normally don't get that heat to the heat. @Reflections statement concerns me a bit, but I did all of my 430°...

    Unfortunately, I haven't seen one of the scratched units in person, so the best I could do is comment on the photo. DV has said the film/coating was to prevent scratches. I don't think units shipped without this film/coating, so I don't believe the scratched units are scratched for a lack of...

    'Cause I've seen a unit with the "film/coating" issue in person now. :)

    That is incorrect. There are 2 PROBLEMS. A unit may have one problem, both, or none. The most common problem is the film/coating issue. A lot of the people that have that have said they don't feel it is that much of an issue as it isn't seen while the display is one. A lot smaller number have...

    It's 2 in the morning and you make this proclamation. I think we ALL can take validation from this statement. ;) Good show Mark. Good show. Cheers.

    Oh... sorry your missed this, for you see.. we got this party started, right? We got this party started quickly... ...mainly due to the very quick heat-up time for a portable that the Ascent offers. :p Oh... look.. a wild Ascent comment appears! I can't speak to the battery, but @Dreamerr...

    Dammit, man! There you make me go hungry for a SPiced hAM product that is conveniently delivered in a can. Must go eat.... Feel for you: Frustrating after having waited so long. It gets better, man! But exchange it. FWIW: If you opt for replacement, there might be a wait, but that is only...

    Oh! Good point! Most likely glue strands. As these are hand-assembled that makes a lot of sense. Not that they should be there on a finished device. But make more sense than plastic.

    I think the battery charge indicator isn't simply a mechanical process. I think the on board computer is doing "current use consumption". Kinda like being in a car, going up a steep steep hill only getting small MPG and the computer says you only have so many miles left, but then you go over the...

    Glad it seems you got one of the good Stealths! Hope you enjoy your sessions!. I think the battery indicator is a little wonky, especially after a few hits in a row. Had a buddy hit mine like a crack fiend on payday. Handed it back and it looked almost empty. Charged it for a only few before...

    @grokit How is the pipestone test going? Or did you post already and I missed it? I don't think they are kidding. I think they sent out a form letter. DV wants to do right by everybody here, and I don't believe they care about that stuff. [EDIT: I see in the time it took me to post this that...

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

    I believe than only a few production runs were made until the customs issue, and the production was stopped until they could get that problem resolved. As I'm sure you know now that the first few days of orders are out, some people have units with little or no issues. But others didn't and DV is...

    Yeah, I saw that recent comment about *NUGS*. I was talking about what he originally said a few months back. At one point he said kief cotton-sandwich, which had me thinking more about layers. ;) Sorry, when I said paper-weight, I meant, more of "something put on top of something" than I meant...

    So the bead is kinda a paper-weight, then? I imagined it as a shelf, raising the bottom up. In terms of Stick's method, I thought the cotton went on the bottom, but the cotton most likely diffuses the air and gives it a bit more chance to heat up. I haven't tried either because I haven't had...
