    I get it I'm saying some unpopular things, but I don't see it as arguing. It's a discussion, the very reason this (or other) Forum is for? Discussions, hopefully 'backed up' with facts. That's what I feel I've done. I've said it's conduction and there is basically no such thing as...

    First off, howdy! Welcome to the Forum and all the fun. Lots of good folks around, I'm sure you'll fit in just fine based on your post. Your contributions are of course most welcome in the face of no other first hand experience offered, but I suspect that it will continue to interest your...

    Discontinued Chewy 2.0 Portable Electric Grinder

    It can happen to the best of us. Mind sitting down wind until it passes? I'm sure I speak for all when I say 'thank you' for doing so...... OF

    Arizer Solo

    That being the case you should fit in really well around here then! Welcome to the Forum and all the fun. Lots of good folks with experience and advice to share. Great choice on Solo, BTW, but I guess you already know that. The steps are 9 degrees F, 5 degrees C apart. Significant, but not...

    IMO for very solid Engineering/Physics reasons. It comes with the added burden of supporting the 'must have' stem system. Rather than go through the reasons why this is (how much power do we need, how fast can it be put in, what are the losses, and so on) which would be very hard to do here...

    So long. Too bad it doesn't fit your pistol as the saying goes. Looks to be a winner for some. For those in a hurry, for an 'on demand' vape, I have used and can (with some reservations) recommend Summit and ESV as 'total vape packages' and the DC herb cart and an appropriate 'mod' to drive...

    Arizer Solo II

    Use a short piece of silicone tube to attach a funnel to it and put it in the silverware section of the dishwasher? Funnel up, of course. With the normal dishes if the wife isn't watching. "Works a treat" as the Brits say. Very strong detergent, heated and flushed through automatically then...

    How can you pass up a straight line like that? Time to crank up '....no, that's the color the water turns when I use that killer weed my cousin gets....'. Not the color the other stuff makes it. Too bad, this is the last of your stash and the cousin 'has issues' right now...... Leave it to...

    Good point, but in some cases dark is much better I think. If you don't draw attention, you don't have to count on being assumed a 'harmless e-cig user'. They also are kinda like a cell phone as well? It would be an easy thing to add stealth (dark) you'd think? Real paranoia demands as much...

    I was thinking it's too bad you can't turn the screen brightness down to zero (stealth mode) like you can with many mods. That light lighting up your face is kind of a give away sometimes? Not so important to Solo/Air I guess, but they advertise it being 'small enough to palm'.......not very...

    Love it. The short answer is you gave it enough time to get hot enough? It's a 'rate of rise' game.....with a pretty short time constant, drink fast. Or do what they do in some places in the world, hold the glass on fingertips on the rim and base/corner where losses are greatest so the...

    Any interest in a community collaboration to develop a vape?

    Thanks. That fits the 'doesn't know about PMs' idea. Let's hope he wonders by? So they say. They also say the Brits drink warm beer because Lucas used to make refrigerators. Which makes sense, somehow. I used to work with a fellow with a faded but much loved tee shirt he'd wear 'on...

    Any interest in a community collaboration to develop a vape?

    So HN, I sent you a couple of PMs a while back I'd hoped would be of value. No answers. It occurs to me you might not have 'got them' (known/use PMs), did you? It's one thing to be ignored, quite another to go unnoticed....... TIA OF

    Vape Temp Profile Charts

    Good on you for finding Stick's graph. Please note the discussions around it. Also note the temperatures. IMO it clearly shows conduction going on, not convection (where the core would heat from the airflow and heat the outside?). I know guys really like the idea of convection, perhaps not...

    I expected you would........ First off, for sure there "the bowl get (sic) heated by radiation from the heater" is not right. Thermodynamics says so. Radiation only works (transfers enough energy to be useful) if the source is very very hot (like sun hot). IR has to enter the load much...

    No, they're not. At least I don't think there are. There are no such animals in fact? Conduction and convection are two different processes running at two radically different temperatures. For convection to work you need a LOT more than 400F air to heat the herb...... Combustion...

    Excellent observation. My 'take' is the light stuff (terpenes and other stuff that gives us 'flavor' and aroma) are not only the first to evaporate, but they are also very vulnerable to damage (by heat). Move a single atom and it's something different. And we run our vapes (let alone blazing)...

    The Arizer Air

    Interesting problem (though frustrating on your end....), but I don't think the statement above is accurate? That is there's something else going on. The charger just doesn't provide enough power to run the unit, it can't substitute on it's own. Hard to say what might cause this. Since such...

    Welcome aboard! You may have come a bit late to the party but you came armed with first rate gear. No accident I'm sure. Good show 'taking the pledge', you've got past the rough part of getting over combustion, some guys need a day or two, some a week or two. Such 'programed responses' are...
