Sure, I always use my Reload with my Anvil. It's great for debowling. However, you'll still want to use the Anvil tube's cap or another magnet for loading, because you can't tamp the bowl into the storage pot while it's attached to the Reload lid.

Has anyone found good Tempest storage? I've been using my XL Anvil tube, but my Anvil is out in the cold. I'm planning to do a Vestratto order anyway, so maybe I'll just get another.

Yes, they do. I've turned the Inductor to its lowest setting, because in my limited experience it seems like the Tempest likes a relatively slow heat-up to thoroughly soak the balls. Even then the Inductor makes the Tempest glow in seconds, but the time to full heat on the visual indicator is...

It doesn't have that hole-shot, off-the-line dab-like density of the Anvil, if that's what you mean. The Tempest ramps up more slowly. Still, I would say that comparing similar sized loads, the Tempest can produce equal effects, and it tastes better.

Thank you! I have to note, somewhere on this forum, maybe in this thread, I posted a rant about supporting domestic glass production as a means of reparations for the artists and sellers (all the way up to Tommy Chong) who developed this craft even in the face of fascist oppression. In my...

Now that I've had time to sit patiently with the Tempest, I see that I didn't lose an o-ring from the heat shield--there isn't one on the air hole end of the shield. I realized there's no o-ring when I spotted the small key on the inside diameter of the shield, which fits into the groove on the...

Should there be o-rings on both ends of the heat shield? I'm guessing that I lost one from the air-port end, because it's floating free. I'm usually pretty good about not losing little bits during disassembly/reassembly, but I was a little excited this morning as I had a very narrow window...

Yeah, I've tried various torch techniques and strengths. I started out as @coolbreeze describes, stopping just short of red-hot--seeing it glow is alarming. Then I watched Bing's video, and I started going to red then waiting for a brief cool-down. That worked okay, so I've been using a similar...

Y'all are mking me feel terribly incompetent. I mean, to use Troy's unicycle metaphor, I consider myself a unicycle master. I know what I'm trying to get out of a vaporizer, and I understand how to get it, whether it's with fire or electrons, using conduction or convection. I feel like I always...

When I ordered the Inductor, I didn't really have a functional vision for its use. I only use IHs for portables; at home I prefer torch or coil powered devices with more glass. So a desktop IH didn't have a place in my rotation. Still, I just had to experience an IH that could power an Anvil. I...

Yup; the Wand temp setting is just a timer that's calibrated to the Wand's dedicated banger.

That idea might trigger my VAS, except that I just dropped an order for an integrated stem and an XL mouthpiece for my Anvil, so I'm pretty invested in its original stem. Still, I have a feeling a USA will be a new itch.

It does work like that--it's very cool to watch (though you have to cross your eyes to see it). I have to admit, I've only recently witnessed this feature, even though I picked up a Gen 1 Revolve on the first release. While I was blown away by the engineering and execution of the piece, it...

You're not alone; there's a whole thread: https://fuckcombustion.com/threads/a-discussion-on-adhd-and-cannabis.53161/ Okay, back to lurking, at least until my Tempest arrives and I've got something to write (flex) about.

Aaah...that's better.

Dammit! It was in my cart...

So, it's a slightly better Mighty for $450. I was hoping for more. But I did enjoy hearing Jurgen say Venty. I think it's going to be known as the Wendy from now on.

I've got the Stingray package in hand--it's made in Taiwan. I know some Blazers are Japanese--my Big Shot says "Made in Japan"--but apparently they've got factories elsewhere. And clones can be hard to identify from photos alone, but that picture shows an identical torch to the Stingray.

That's nearly identical to the Blazer Stingray (GB4001)--only the base looks different. I'll bet it's an alternatively branded version of the same torch.

Holy shit! I was there, too! I remember how you could hardly see the "No Smoking" signs through the haze, and when Dio introduced Sweet Leaf, he asked, "Is that stuff you're smoking legal, or is it Sweet Leaf?" I have to admit, I miss having the cover of all that tobacco smoke at concerts.
