Actually, Rayon doesn't melt. It's made from cellulose so it behaves like wood, not 'other plastics'. That is it's not a 'thermoplastic', doesn't melt per se. It gets very weak about 150C (which would look like melting?) and then decomposes soon after, well less that the potential 210C I...

Understood. Thinking about it makes it seem more and more like a good idea. Which is the risk you run when you start reading longer threads on vapes you don't know.......they got long for one of two reasons and this one ain't no turkey......... F2 is, I think, a more personal vape. Maybe 2...

In a more civilized world that would be covered on Medicare. And the herb to load it with. Best wishes for a speedy, complete and problem free recovery. OF

Excellent points. An important factor is where exactly the heat sensor is. Once the heat flow changes (like you take a hit) there will be temperature drops due to that flow different from the static state. This can be very important in say furnaces where fresh melt is added calling for a...

While I don't use such things (don't do dabs....)I think you're on the right course but missed the cause? It's not pressure (indeed there can be very very little pressure change in such an open area from your draw (even if you're known as 'leather lungs'). I think it's because it introduces...

I tend to agree, Calculus is an expansion of Algebra. "Math is the language of Science". But I don't follow the analogy? I think I've stated my POV, and the reasoning behind it. If I've made an error there, I hope someone can/will point it out. Otherwise I'm happy to stand by it, no need to...

Could be we're looking at it from 'different ends', in fact almost surely? But that doesn't change the issue IMO. It's one or the other, based on design and how the heat flows. When you take a hit after a long rest the load has either cooled off and there's no immediate vapor (convection) or...

Great update, glad you're quickly becoming fast friends. Easy to do, it's a great unit like Solo and Air. You might try 'hamster style' for your above issue. Hold the stem 'upside down' (bowl up) and slide the unit over it. Then hit it upside down (like a hamster sucking on his water bottle)...

Beats me, never even seen one. But the rules are still the same. Do you need to pull hot air through to get to vapor after idle? Does it exhibit 'heat soak' benefits between hits? That should confirm it. I still maintain there are no 'hybrids' possible, you're (predominantly) one or the...

Ooo, fun idea! I doubt Bernoulli has much to offer pressure wise, the effect is pretty small in things like perfume atomizers where the flow is intentionally restricted and the 'vent' is in the narrowed part. Plane wings a huge (large surface area) and need a lot of speed (over 100 fps?) while...

Not sure what to say about what others might have said/believed, but I've never held it, or similar vapes, to be anything but conduction. Since before I knew about vapes. Since school and all that Thermodynamics stuff. Made a living following those rules, I believe in them. I don't doubt a...

I think you have a slightly different problem, not the mold but the material used in the clone? If you look carefully I think you'll find wear/rounding on the lower surface of the lip at the top of the body the two tabs on the MP latch under? The material in the body failed, not the MP. Since...

Yep, you read that a lot. Scientists, who understand Thermodynamics, will tell you you can't be a 'hybrid', only one or the other based on heat flows. Sales types, who don't know/care about that but 'reason' claiming convection leads to sales have different opinions. Engineers it seems can be...

It's conduction. For convection to work the air has to be considerably hotter than 'magic temperature' going in (so it can give up heat to make vapor and still be above say 390F). Like Solo, FMs and so on. Convection needs 'glowing hot' sources (like 1200F), not available here. The best we...

Not that that's not a good thing, but let's face it @ataxian needs help a whole lot more than you....... OF

Sure, McMaster Carr will sell you several types of SS balls in lots of sizes. Also Ti, but there you'll have to buy them in 'real' (SAE) size, and they're kinda pricey. OF

Watch the spelling, please, FRACTIONS not infractions? Important difference. I'm generally looking to avoid 'the heavy stuff' and with it couch lock and irritation. The latter being personal perhaps, but higher temperatures bring more of the components that make me cough and so on. FWIW 390F...

I think I get this part too. We're talking about subjective measures here, typically related to experience with a different vape or vapes even. Our experiences, judgements and goals differ. Mighty subjective for simple comparisons? You point, I think, to one of the major strengths of...

I agree, I too don't stir. But I think I understand others? Perhaps it's that 'instant gratification' thing? That is once 'the clouds' get thinner they want more, more, more? Then again, it's their vape with their herb involved so they should do what they want. OF

IMO capping the top covers part of the problem, as I said above the bottom is still 'wide open'? How big a risk/problem is a call individuals get to make. A more complete smell control solution is to either pull the stem and cap BOTH ends or cap the bottom of the ArGo as well as the top. Lots...
