    What a CIVILISED thread to stumble on whilst vaporising COLAs :lol::peace:

    Issue with my new recycler?

    My 12" Steven torus will only function with very open airflow, so only when I clear it after disconnecting a vape. To be honest out of my China glass, not even my most basic pieces have good dynamics, my matrix sidecar functions best but the perc is slightly crooked, honeycombs are generally...

    Yeah, I'll give a blu-tac dab a go now. I also have some electronic cleaning polymer goop stuff which has been basically useless until now, but it's in storage. I think blue tac is possibly the quickest solution seeing how difficult it is to wipe the fine threads. ...well I gave it a go, not...

    I've been doing a bit of reading on titanium threads, turns out they are renowned for galling (wear caused by adhesion between sliding surfaces) which is the cause of dark dust build up. Apparently no lube will prevent this due to the nature of the material and the forces required. It's not...

    Yeah, I imagine if it's used correctly it poses minimum risk. The reality is if it's widely recommended then there's good possibility of rash application and spillage occurring. Any instance of this will probably make its way online. That's not to say it is indeed the culprit with these two...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    If you set it up right shit can get trippy! It's basically the best, most robust entry level desktop vape in my mind. I can't see myself bothering to upgrade it, although it can be bested in any specific mode of operation, it's pretty well second tier to the top dogs and an impressive jack of...

    Even with my best part-of a-thousand day accumulative tolerance to vapour :party: I still get surprised at how high I get after a F.O.D. (First of the Day) hopper hit. It's honestly pretty debilitating, in the best way haha. I tried shredding a chamber at T5 but it choked me out :science: I've...

    I'd be even more hesitant to use conductive grease anywhere near circuitry now that there have been two recent battery shorts resulting in catastrophic failure ! https://www.reddit.com/r/GrassHopperVape/comments/54b7tc/my_battery_started_burning_as_well/ No word on if either user had done so...

    The negative terminal is connected to a brass plate that routes the power through a pentiometer and then sends the energy, corresponding to the dial position, through the body and to the PCB controlling the heater. Bridging the cell to the body bypasses this voltage divider and normally the...

    I just filed my second warranty request for an unknown issue with my plain Ti. And as soon as I finished typing it all out, it starts working again.. so we'll see what happens but zombie hopper hits are a good time :zombie:

    I believe he means if the plastic wrap is damaged, exposing the side-wall of the battery cell, contacting this to the hoppers body will short circuit the device. My assumption was similar, though I was thinking perhaps some conductive material was caught on either PCB or bridging the back of the...

    It's fucking sick mate ;) I think the GH works better when it's cold so it'll be interesting to see how she handles a true blue scorcher

    Help, dropped Mighty into Lake!!

    Water resistance is becoming popular with phones, waterproofing is a 2019 feature when they cover the one remaining PCB with glue and do a better job isolating the buttons. They will still figure out how to dodge wet warranties. Isolating a vape is much more difficult than a phone, perhaps. But...

    Precisely. The enjoyment revolves around the after effect from the application, not so much the application itself. I want to get blasted without tearing my lungs up. It's a big perc that the hopper goes beyond the call of duty in that respect, although sometimes I question the health benefits...

    I've seen a whole bunch of his vids, sure he praises some crap products but he still offers a decent review. He's seemingly bias, that's most of YouTube, have a listen to Lewie from Unbox therapy on Joe Rogans podcast for a bit of insight to the YouTube marketing circus. If someone buys...

    Yeah I'm with you Mr. Me2, initially there was a lot of unneeded heat around his GH review, and whilst I don't necessarily share his opinion he mentioned all his reasoning and I think it's reasonable for him to not be stoked with the GH. Hating on the clip and disproportionately spending time...

    I'd recommend an MFLB stem used in the silicone MP for hands free cooling like this. I agree, I'm not a fan of the hot vapor from the device directly*, smokers seem to like it. The cooled vapor is great though, I just carry glass with me. Took my hopper for a bike ride today, along with a...

    Has more gunk (TiO2 from high energy arcing across the tiny air gap in the threads) built up causing the end to heat up again? I find cleaning my threads seems to have a direct response to the heat, but it certainly only seems to last a random amount of time before it'll heat up again...

    The new charger probably is designed to not malfunction from shorting itself with metal particles magnetised to it. The cable is like the original charger (cable on one side only) but with extra durability in place. Still find myself just swapping batteries even though I have three magnetic...

    PAX 3 by PAX Labs

    Nice work happening at Pax. High polished anodised aluminium is very in right now in the tech universe ;) You should update your website to let Australians in :wave: What is the temp range of the Pax 3, and is it still predominantly conduction powered?
