I wouldn't worry too much about the tight stem fit, it's going to loosen up over time/use some and even after it 'settles in' some stems are smaller than others, I'm sure you can find a favorite? The 'which is better' idea is interesting. I'd say shutdown and reheat is probably the power...

Good point, although I'd never heard it put that way. Takes in birds (of course) and reptiles and amphibians. And fish, most of them hatch from eggs. And insects, which would also include pupal forms (which came from eggs, although the cats don't hunt pupa AFAIK)? Cool. But they're also big...

More anecdotal evidence to the effectiveness of Solo. Next, we graduate to the 'Energy Star' version where the subject stares in much the same way at a computer that's not turned on. Or hooked to the Internet. Then to a virtual computer. Talk about reduced Carbon Footprint......on top of...

Naw, Photoshop....... OF

Hey, I just got to you first. Lots of good folks around, as you've discovered.......sadly some of them still have day jobs though, which can interfere in what's really important in life. I think you've already broken the code WRT the whole vaping advantage and are well on the way to working...

First off, howdy! Welcome to the Forum. Forget your concerns, ya done good. Did your homework well. Seems like you picked a good woman as well..... Yer in tall cotton as we Yanks might say. I think it's safe to say that those 'in the know' would include Solo/Air on their 'top 3 list'...

Hey, what the man just said! There have been some brave (or foolhardy) Makers who have of course, sometimes even assigning a paid employee to the task. One even tried 3 or was it 4 times? One packed it in based on the effort? Stopped making vapes. The results have been universally poor...

Hopefully so, although what exactly "normal" is for this bunch remains an open issue..... OF

Yep, exactly. Self indulgent cats we already got...... In the good old days we allowed them to live with us because they caught rats and stuff. Then they got unions and cell phones, now all they're willing to do is call the exterminators and wait for lunch. Which we, of course, provide. On...

Love it! But not really my idea of the ideal Guard Cat. I'd much rather have him at attention, in Spinx pose, with the VM between his paws.....snarling? Not nodding off on the job....... A bit like 'who watches the night watchman at Guinness?'. OF

Amen. To that I'd like to say I think any honest person, 'in touch with himself', clearly gets the message about which your body really prefers? I also think, for some the thrill of it all is just more important. Oh, yeah, I don't mind saving a LOT of money on herb personally........ Sort of...

Excellent point, although I suspect you can find a new vape that doesn't do this? The Bender comes to mind, it's all glass and heats by IR through the walls by a ceramic heater that has very little off gassing. More important, I think, is vapes are not alone in this 'new heater smell'. Hair...

Exactly so, thank you very much for putting it in much clearer terms than I did. I like Solo II (And Air and the original Solo for that matter). I see no cause for safety related concerns, and don't like being cast in a supporting role in that campaign. I have no role to play there, no 'dog...

Thank you, I get that but that's not my problem. I'm reading 'past that post' perhaps. There is a long running safety discussion going on that I don't think is at all helpful. Nor appropriate here as I understand the rules. I don't want to be included in that as being at all supportive of...

Please don't include me as supporting this. In fact, just the opposite. I thought I was quite clear that I saw no design flaws or safety risks that should be corrected. Nothing that concerns me. Please let me be clear now? I don't believe in evil 'electronic vapor', nor Lead in solder that...

Gentle Friends, I've got a small bubbler suggestion for your consideration. In the past we had "the Infamous Bubbler", a small WT. Low in cost, solid in quality, easy to use, and effective. So, of course, it's no longer available (the company that imported them is gone). As an available...

I don't think it helps, although it's kind of subjective? As a clue, there's no apparent added buildup of condensate at the bend which you'd expect? The path is roughly the same length and the walls have the same basic area. I'm not sure turbo stems are the answer, CK can say better than I...

Not to worry, I'll put it on your bill....... Cheers. OF

Actually, no you don't need anything to move the liquid Butane, it's self pressurizing, just like it's heavier cousin Propane. And CFCs for that matter, which we used to use to power spray paints among other tasks. In fact, Butane and Propane are used to pressurize other products, like cooking...

We went through this a couple of weeks back, you might dig some. The short of it is, no, your new Solo is just fine. Enjoy it. Many of us actually like to lift the stem a mm or so (or some of us tip it) to control the airflow restriction. I'm sure yours is 'within spec' and a warranty return...
