Lower. A smaller number per degree, same number of degrees means a smaller total shift expected so in the real world (wherever that is....) you reach the target resistance change sooner and therefore at lower temperature. Remember, it's working on that resistance change not temperature. It...

In other news, while I haven't had my replacement Aura MPs long I've been seriously testing the first one. I know how important this is to you all so I'm happy to keep dumping it out, shoveling more in and pushing the little button. And charging as needed of course. A couple dozen sessions at...

That is pretty subjective. We have a guy here who consumes an entire gram per month. Yes, half an ounce will cover him for the year with some to spare. And we have a guy who rolls 7 gram blunts, a few times a day. Some MMJ types need a LOT of medicine. A stem holds maybe 1/4 gram (or a bit...

Isn't it 3 steps? Roughly 75% and above (green?), 50 to 75% (white?) and 'half or less charge' (red?)? That is it shares the 'compressed range' problem with the new FM Mini Pro. In car terms the gas gauge won't tell you the most important detail, 'do I have enough gas to make it home?'. That...

Zig Zags are the most common type of rolling papers used here. The default. Ataxian thinks you should stop sweating it or go back to combustion I gather. I tend to agree with him, just in other terms. Give it a chance, you've got a modest investment (cost wise) in a very well respected vape...

You're welcome, of course, glad to help when I can. Only fair, lots of good folks have helped me over the years you know....... If you dig back you can find all the sordid details in a rambling discussion between a few of us 'usual suspects', IIRC this time it's Haywood's fault? He started...

I'm still confused. Not that that matters all that much. The post just above yours was by me discussing if the proposed new version would replace the current Mini. I knew at that point what the models were and responded as best I could (the current one has steps too, and covering a different...

It almost certainly was. Solo is extremely popular, IMO for good reason, it earned it's reputation. You've had it what? One whole day, give or take? Give it a chance. Like with people, sometimes better to get to know them before you start picking on the parts you don't like right off...

I disagree. You called me by name, didn't reference or quote anything before giving me information I already had. What response did you want/expect from me? Why did you address the partial message to me? TIA OF

I second that. While some/many 18650s will work fine no doubt, many won't even fit. And some of those which do aren't up to the duty and cannot be considered safe. I have piles of high end 18650s of various stripes around here, and flatter myself in thinking I know more about them than the...

Loose stems are part of the plan. It's in the design and not a fault, the maker has said as much several times. They don't do warranty repair/replacements for this? They expect the stem to fall out if turned over, and say we should too. The loose herb thing is easy to deal with if your bud...

Of course no fixed offset. It's a more or less linear change in resistance with temperature. The rate varies. Like metals (which get longer when hot), how much so at any point a function of how many degrees and what percentage of the 'at rest' size it changes per degree. Most metals change...

Yes if you're asking about the doughnuts used in the DT. I make it about 2450 ppm (.245%) per degree C. That enters as '245' on the VTC Mini. Dry or wet, but wet with vegetable oil, not hash oil......or any other oil with a boiling point near the temperatures we're working with....... I used...

Sure you can, but the right question is 'Should I .....'? No, while I feed my cheap Chinese ($3) lighters anything that says Butane on the label (a couple of them from so long ago they have no English on them (bought overseas) or 'house brands' from stores that no longer exist. I figure they...

Fine, I read about it too. Now, please, what is the point? I don't memorize the dozen or so 'running conversations' I might have at any point in time, just calling me out doesn't cut it sometimes. This is one of the reasons to quote the part of the prior post you're responding to. I honestly...

I sure hope not. You do know the Mini has 3 presets, like the V5 (same thing, two batteries....)? Personally I always use the lowest, but there are two more on tap. As long as they have to cut into battery life to make room for the display, switches and extra stuff I'm sticking with the...

Yes, we've discussed this a couple of times I think? The difference is very large IMO, 2686 mAh for the Mini, 1919 for the Pro, about 40% more with the Mini measured the same way. In practice, since you don't use the full range as a rule, the difference will be even bigger. You get to decide...

You're welcome, but it really wasn't much of a sacrifice. Like I said, it dies on it's own first (one lead broke off the doughnut) and I had to do the first part to recover the concentrate that had leaked down and collected inside the rubber bushing. I pulled something over 1/8 gram out on...

OK, change of topic? There was some talk awhile back about cement used in the current carts (but not in the future), when I lost a deep base I decided to see what was up. Breaking the threaded part off I crushed the ceramic until it came apart: You can see, they put a bead of some kind of...

In a more civilized society they'd have reserved seats with lumbar support (hey, we do it in cars) with built in Heating Stations of course......... Until that day, we'll have to make do as best we can. Capitalism is so cool to provide so many choices in the marketplace. I bet in Russia...
