@GB3663 - the standard China offering pulls about 60 watts. With line losses, I deliver 10V to the IH and read 6 amps with the VC inserted in the stock coil. 3x 18650 keeps me up for about 3 days with 60-80 cycles. I am not using the BMS since I charge the individual cells but a BMS charger...

Yep, ISO and a swab.

I have a feeling it is more the tricomes became matted resulting in a resinous mass. It wasn't necessarily bricked because stems and a few water leafs were still present and intact. It was just dense. Broken up into duff it looked identical. On the scale it was very different. And therefore...

Why exactly are you finding ABV in your IH? I have some vape honey that collect on my glass liner. That comes off quickly with ISO and a swab.

I find that I have some allergic responses to cheap weed. The VapCap is perfectly happy delivering crap as it delivers top shelf flower. Me, on the other hand, definitely prefer the top shelf. I've decided I can't hack the cheap crap. I spend days hacking on a $50/oz junk-weed where a...

I really wish I could be more choosy. I do appreciate everyone's input. I'll just have to maintain a larger stash so I can walk away when things look or smell questionable.

@karec - thanks for the followup on the query at hand. Indeed, this is what 'regulation' means. The ability for a given converter to provide a constant output with varying input. There is no reason to regulate a low battery other than to protect it from under-voltage. There are obviously...

Then why the performance problem?

Regulated devices can only remain in regulation if there is enough power (watts) and sufficient voltage for the regulation circuit.

What you are seeing is the discharge curve. Li-ion will hold 4.2V at the start and quickly settle in the 3.7-3.6V range where it will linger and fall off quickly at the end of the charge. Having a high current draw really tanks the output voltage, raising the current draw which the cell cannot...

I did not test Columbian Gold when searching for strains. I'll have to compare their profiles. The close second at the time was a strain of Dutch Treat.

Yea, I get what you are saying. Sad but true. Clone-clones is what I attribute 'boutique' name brands and this is likely one of those. But I will defend the industry in our state to some extent with findings. I can't taste Blue Dream. I barely get a signal on the first draw. But throw a...

I forgot to expand on grind. All my stash goes through a standard metal screen sifter after the medium grind in a proper herb grinder. This removes the leaf-stems. Two different batches of Blue Dream from two farms and one 1-gram pile is substantially bigger than the 1-gram pile of the other...

I appreciate all you suggest and most is not lost on me @Madri-Gal . I had a lot of fun when the state went legal only to learn there was actual medical benefit. Who knew, right:clap: I recently went to hemp to get flavor back into the mix. Alas, screwing with what works for me can end the...

:lmao: My DIY schedule is full through the scarlet moon. George needs something to do :nod:

I have no idea what it would look like. But it would be metal and glass and everything nice and rosarium.

I've been buying Blue Dream long enough to get some sense of what it should look like. And in most cases yes, nice delicate bud and colas that fill a bag, so to speak. If that is the genetics, then a dense Blue Dream may be an off-strain or a 'branded' farm strain? I am finding that following...

Buying herb for vape is what I was thinking. Understanding what makes a good bud for vaping and what seems to just go up in vape. Growers would understand what I am seeing best. As a vaper, I really like the fluffy buds. Even when I was combusting, I also noticed this reduced effect from...

:sherlock: I think it is time for a DV Power-Pen! :science: A DVPP If You Will :uhh: WhatSayU :suspicious:

I ran into an interesting dilemma over the past week. Since I started vaping some 5 months ago, I've learned that low grade buds cause me issues. So I am going for top shelf Blue Dream only. A decent ounce will last me a month. Typically fluffy and fuzzy makes for a full mason jar. Last...
