One of the great strengths of the deceptively simple Box: It knows how to deliver if you use it 'right'. It's all up to the user, unlike so many vapes. Even mortally wounded, like your other one, it still delivers useful (if not optimum) vapor. A tough contender for sure. Slow degradation...

Neither did I until someone at MF tolt us so. Afterwards it makes sense (of course). Since the rails are only about 3/4 of a Volt when running (you can read it on the stub ends of the OG units) you need lotsa Amps to make the Watts needed to heat that much stuff hot enough. High peak currents...

I agree, and will even go a step further. There's really no such thing as a 'hybrid' vape when it comes to making vapor. Conduction, convection and radiation are three separate modes, each with it's own rules.....Thermodynamics rules. Like 'heat flows from hot to cold'? That means, for...

Hey, it passed spell check....... Another point I should have made is this very requirement (unusually small voltages at very high currents) is the reason battery selection for MFLB is such a big deal, AA NiMNs aren't up to the job typically. Getting the internal resistance down low enough...

True enough, but we need over 15 Amps......and at a very unusually smell Voltage 'at the rails' in the LB, something on the order of .75 Volts IIRC? Not a trivial thing, most 'distributed regulators' aren't up to the job due to the low voltage (none I could find anyway) even if you find models...

A topic discussed over a hundred times in Solo/Air threads. A search of all thread for 'domed screens' limits at 200 posts. On this thread alone there are 14 other mentions, four by me? http://fuckcombustion.com/search/63298881/?q=domed+screens&t=post&o=date&c[thread]=25853 Many/most guys...

Today, $120 US is $160 Canadian. Not as far off as it seems without taking into account a Canadian Dollar is worth less than 80 cents here. That $40 US (50 Canadian) increase is probably shipping and some reasonable profit for the shop in the great frozen north? Under the rules of Capitalism...

Yes, I too believe you're misinformed. The answer is, I think, in this thread. I'd suggest you go back to when F2 came out and read some of the comparisons from Members who have owned/used both? Good luck with your choice. I have no problems recommending F2 (but don't know F1). Also worth...

Yup, my understanding as well. An upgraded F1 (which is available under many 'brands'). I'd recommend sticking with F2 if you want the features and reliability we're enjoying. Not sure who sells in Canada, but several Dealers here will ship there? OF

Cool. IMO any Arizer product is a great choice for a 'first vape'. Please understand you can't smoke and vape. One or the other. Like Pavlov's dogs, you've become accustomed to the toxic junk in smoke, it's part of the pattern of 'getting off' in your brain. Like the bells in the famous...

I won't argue with you there, filter replacement is dear indeed. The 'anti smoke' version is near as expensive as a new unit (with a 'normal' filter). I 'protect' mine with a couple of layers of the activated carbon foam used in larger filters cut to fit. It takes a lot of the particles and...

IMO yes. 'Lawyer talk'. Remember, the maker (Panasonic) doesn't approve of their use by us or anyone not building approved (well protected) battery packs. Should an accident happen, they'd no doubt like a way out. OF Edit: It's also worth noting this application is very mild compared to...

You know, there's a Victor Hugo story from his early days when he was anxious if his publisher was going to publish his next book. He sent the publisher a very short message, "? VH". The meaning was clear, despite it's short size (four characters, counting the necessary space). Clear who it...

Yes, I've bought those from IMR (along with a lot of other top end cells), they and Orbtronics are are favorites of mine, FWIW. They are often out of stock (like now?) Remember, Panasonic doesn't sell to this market, supply is unsure, but stick to that exact model from known good Dealers and...

Activated carbon is the key. It absorbs smells and must be replaced (not washed out which only traps dust and particulates). HEPA ratings on the filter part (also a trap, must be changed when 'loaded' is also very important in overall performance. I use this guy...

NCR18650A is not the same thing as -B with a different top: https://www.orbtronic.com/batteries-chargers/panasonic-3100mah-ncr18650a-li-ion-rechargeable-18650-battery-cell-made-in-japan It, too, is a flat top? So much for 'facts' on Amazon...... Notice, please, it's a different version of the...

At the risk of repeating myself......I suggest buying THE EXACT MODEL THE FACTORY USES. Brand alone is not a useful guide. Many Panasonic models exist, only one is 'right'. 3 other makers offer high end cells, none of their offerings are as good in this application. FWIW I think the poster...

Almost exactly like Solo/Air, neither of which is known for having a 'too small' bowl. In fact many of us use domed screens to reduce the volume still further. ArGo's bowl is smaller in diameter but taller to compensate, the volumes are nearly identical. Since ArGo has more surface area, it...

I'm not sure what you mean by "type A or type B", sorry. But I strongly advise that exact 18650. Arizer has selected the best available for the job, go figure. In the trade off of flat out current (which we really don't need) against battery life (which we want more of) they picked the...

Not after adjusting the temperature to get similar vapor production. If anything it might be a tiny bit more harsh??? If you want cooler, go longer. Or better still consider the bubbler stem from PIU: https://www.puffitup.com/Arizer-Air-Solo-Long-H2O-Filtration-Stem-p/qctq.airsol2-bubb_l.htm...
