Agreed. In my (modest) experience Solo and Air are basically identical, differences seen (or should that be 'smelled?) must be for something other than design differences. My money's on strain/cure differences. FWIW nobody else I recall has ever suggested Solo and Air 'smell different in use'...

This one's easy. There are a lot of compact bubblers designed to work on 'vape pens' that can easily be used on many other vapes (like the FMs) using a short piece of 1/2 inch OD silicone tube like here with the ESV: There's also an aftermarket adapter (somewhere in the FM thread....) that...

This is a bit confusing to me. Bics are Butane lighters, right? Secondly, I assume 'safe' means not blowing up, not not getting caught by the heat? If, as I think, the concern is for the vapors of essential oils you're making being explosive I think you're concerned about a non threat. Many...

OTOH, a coworker once quipped 'that's just one of the many things he's full of....' Others seemed to understand the concept without examples. OF

There were obvious changes in the counterfeit I reported on earlier in this thread: http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/the-arizer-air.16415/page-303#post-883954 Some not so obvious ones as well, ones you'd probably need a genuine one to compare to? The post became it's own thread...

Ah, yes, the eternal conundrum, how to spot 'Mr. Best likely to happen', before 'Mr. You could be OK', and what can follow. There's a fun classical logic problem, now a bit dated, but the idea is sound. It's called 'the Rhine Problem'. You're taking a long awaited train ride down the river, a...

Perhaps you missed it, many of us also tried to BUY that part. This is old news. They don't sell replacement ovens either, as I recall a guy broke his and someone (like Vitolo?) gave him a used one from a scrap unit. There's also a hidden serial number issue (since it's on that part)...

I suggest you PM him here. It's worked for me several times. He comes by every week or so and reads what's been posted, usually responding to a post or two. At the same time it seems he answers PMs here. OF

I wouldn't feel slighted or singles out, you're several years short of being the first Member to ask and get told that same thing. No chassis plates for replacement under warranty or sale. IIRC, Arizer even posted on this web explaining that loose seals and cracked bases are not included in...

Nice to see 'new guys' discovering the bent stems. Many of us ended up using them a lot early on with Solo (came with two glass seems, full length, one straight, one bent......everybody had them, 'out of the box'). However, if you close your eyes and think as you use it you can see how...

I suggest those of you with cracked/broken bases contact Pipes and get a set of the SS washers he sells, they do a great job. This is a photo of the first set I put in mine, several years ago, I added a stick on rubber gasket so the screws wouldn't scratch the deck. Later versions used the...

No, it's normal. It's been melted, that is the four plastic studs are 'riveted over' to hold the PCB in place. Current happens on the PCB, if it was melting the board material would be burned (the epoxy part), charged and delaminated where it happened. Here's the photo of mine, posted several...

'Close enough for Jazz' as the saying goes. Actually TCR is "Temperature Coefficient of Resistance", as you said a way of measuring temperature. Like you do with a thermistor (a resistor that changes value in response to temperature) in say Solo/Air or with a thermocouple (thermal based...

Yes. You can wrap it in a bit of cotton and load it up and go. You need enough cotton to ensure no runs of course, but cotton is fine at magic temperatures. Some guys all out for mountain top, pure organic, harvested at night by naked monks stuff. I think most of us are fine with normal...

How about "Solo, too"? As in '......and it's a Solo, too'. OF Edit: And looking forward a bit, as the market expands, "Solo tutu"? That one comes in pink of course........ OF

How about the stealth version? Replace the pulley with a rubber tire for traction, and head to the gym. You could sneak up on sweaty folks on exercise bikes and rub it against the spinning wheel......then wonder off again to take your hit...... I wouldn't tell them, while they did come to...

Not that rubber bands don't have their proper place in the grand scheme of things....... Back when I was experimenting with this I used PTFE tape, which, of course, came off easy and clean. Gave me a 'handle' of sorts unscrewing the mid section. It was fun, but I didn't like the effect. I...

Excellent point, one I think we sometimes forget. 'Cutting the cord' calls for compromises, some more serious so others can be less so. The major limitation is probably available power, be it from batteries, fire, or friction. Not having the mains to draw on we're limited to a few dozen Watts...

I assume you meant .17 grams? .014 would be 1/5 (20%) of the normal load and impressive indeed. I generally think the stem holds .25 give or take if you work at it. Many of us use the domed screens so the normal Solo (or Air) stem is about 1/8 gram (.125 grams). For some this is a nearly...

I would think so, it's a logical way to build such things. I think we'll find a similar pack with higher capacity perhaps? "A man built it, a man can take it apart" is probably still in play, they want to be able to work on them or they'd glue them together. Using torx screws, as has been...
