    Arizer Solo

    Fortunately, that's not a decision pressed on you. I'm thinking maybe a third, in case one of the two main ones breaks down? Sorry, Bro, but that lightweight thing ain't gonna fly........ OF

    Funny, I've always thought it looks like a tiny Steampunk Lunar Lander myself, being round and all. Some claim if you stare into the top of the mid section you can eventually see Elvis. And if you're using bud he approves of, he'll flash you the 'thumbs up'. Some claim it's really Rene, and...

    Be careful here, not all GonG fittings are alike. Some have a lip or extension that can hang up the larger OD before the smaller OD mates up (it's a taper, after all). That is the 'universal' adapters like the above don't work in all cases for me. It's a problem: Make the small OD too short...

    Indeed it would, and since we're talking conic sections here (which are only circles when square to the axis) you don't seal in anything but the 'dead plumb' configuration. Cold air would bypass the VM and get into the WT to dilute the action I'd think? Facing none of the restriction the VM...

    The Arizer Air

    Don't forget that the plastic topped stems mate up with 14mm GonG fittings like Arizer knew what they're doing? No other adapter really needed. Don't dismiss PIU without checking, Randy also sells spare 18650s and chargers......... And has basically zero risk. "Second to none" comes to mind...

    The Arizer Air

    First off, Howdy! Welcome to the Forum and all the fun and good advice and fellowship. Lots of good folks around, but I guess you've already figured that out? Great choice on Air. For some of us Solo has advantages that give it the nod but there's not a lot of difference, really. Very hard...

    Why I think there's a definite advantage to pure Butane in some cases (like say Iolites), consider that the lighters we use come from a country with some extremely crude Butane and do just fine? They are designed to use it, and really can't 'take advantage' of the higher purity anyway. If you...

    While I understand (and to some extent agree with you) I don't think all hope is lost. Competition has caused a lot of very talented effort to be expended in the quest for the better mousetrap (or vape in this case), I think useful improvements are being made all the time. One of my personal...

    While flavor takes a beating, I wouldn't say it wastes the medicinal value necessarily. Some conduction vapes, like say Ascent show this. In that case, since Ascent can be kept relatively clean easily, taste is also excellent. IMO you're only going to get clean taste in a clean vape...

    Is that local time or GMT? Or maybe "UTC plus 1" as is standard in the land of it's birth? How 'Coordinated Universal Time' ended up UTC not CUT remains another question I guess....... Dicey question on official time zones though, if there's going to be added penalty for such sacrilege on the...

    Arizer Solo

    Naw, yer in tall cotton and just don't know it. The stinky part of such 'natural' air fresheners is commonly available essential oils: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essential_oil You can buy them in an amazing assortment of 'flavors' as soap, candle and cosmetic makers use them too...

    Divine Tribe atty's

    Careful here, lad, those tubes aren't 'plastic' but almost certainly PTFE (Teflon). Well suited to the job, routinely used in electronics. In fact the standard 'bench test' to be sure it's not thermoplastic (Polyethylene I think?) is to hit it with your 700F soldering iron tip. PTFE doesn't...

    Yes. It's a common technique, very easy to do. Lay a sheet of medium/fine paper (say 240 grit) on a flat surface then put the wood piece flat on top and move it over the paper (not the other way around). Avoid straight lines or circles for best results, a 'figure 8 pattern' being traditional...

    Arizer Solo

    Yes, I have the current version, 2.2. I had a 2.0 but couldn't really use it because it uses one of those stupid Red/Green LEDs for a critical indicator. Short sighted call by Engineers with normal color vision and no understanding of those of us who don't. Lamest part of an otherwise good...

    Arizer Solo

    I suggest you check out the HerbalAire. Basically the same size and shape as Solo, a bit lighter. You can also 'blow bags' or use a whip if you want (comes with a pump), but it's really 'in it's own' when used stand alone IMO. Or on a handy WT (the MP mates up directly). I have the V2, IMO...

    The Summit by Vapium (Formerly MARK 1)

    No (or I'd have tried it....). As I said, basically no parts interchange. The new one is a bit larger and different in most/all details? As a session vape I think it's OK, but I think the key feature of the original (quick hit or two on the sly and back to the tasks of the day) got lost...

    Arizer Solo

    This is along the lines I'd expect. Packs will fail (probably quickly) from defects (bad/cheap parts, improper assembly/poor QC, and so on) or 'near term' (under say 200 full cycles) by badly out of balance cells in the battery (the strong one naturally beats up the weak in such cases). Those...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    A couple of (hopefully) synchronized answers. I put charged cells in the case 'pointing left to right' (like you read). Spent ones point 'backwards' (positive on the left as you open the case. You need an obvious top and front of the case, of course, but that's never been a deal breaker for...

    The Summit by Vapium (Formerly MARK 1)

    Yer welcome. Not to worry, VAS isn't linear. It's still out there, active, at this very moment it's probably sneaking up on you again from a different direction, stand by to duck....... You'd just waste the money on fast women and false drugs anyway? Regards, OF

    How about a wheel powered charger to recharge the AA cell as you peddle to the next stop? You could easily rig one up with one of the headlight generators (nominally 6 VAC). Vape only pesticide free outside grown bud with it (fossil fuel free power, very green) and you should get an award from...
