    Any Herb Vapors in Hummingbird Territory?

    Thank you @ChooChooCharlie That is the same breed as we have around here.

    Watching a crew of half a dozen guys standing around vaping asphalt. Now I get the saying "...with a hammer in hand, everything looks like a nail." I'm starting to see just how much 'vapor' we mortals tend to 'consume' in our day-to-day toils.

    Now that I've actually gotten to use the DV, albeit slightly modified, I get it. IH heating is definitely a nice option when it is freezing outside. Did my normal dosage. Blackened at least 2 of 6 loads. Impressions: Nice taste on the first draw at the click. Finding it wants a few more...

    VapCap Induction Heater for Desktop and in Car Use

    I finally got some proper use of the IH. With the cap near the end of the coil, fully inserted, I got 10 seconds to the click with 11.1V and some serious drop across connections, contacts, and an under rated switch. Using a wooden stem so all the heat was gathered in one region. Definitely...

    ...needed a good laugh this AM Thx @vandalizedbythelotus ! :bigleaf: I think a 'refresh' function in the IH's would be very useful. If the heater was used in the last say 15 seconds, a timer is automatically set to either a user preset or a 2-second default.

    What, pulling out a light saber in the middle of a mall might be a bad thing? Or taking out that sonic screw driver near a bank teller machine could be suspicious? Naw! :cool:

    VapCap Induction Heater for Desktop and in Car Use

    BMS will be a study but I suspect it can be made simpler depending on the charge time that is reasonable. Individual cell "chargers" are fairly compact at under an amp. I can see a number of ways to implement that. I just need to learn how other systems do this, primarily laptop solutions...

    Indeed, wrapping your own coil provides more options for the glass. I need to go visit our local vape shop and see what they have for glass. This unit I made will work for the short term. I'll have another this weekend to tking a lot harder on. Also need to go source a BMS. Found a really...

    Welcome @Jeph ! I don't get it... I saw the broken image thing in Jeph's post (imgur). Then I say "edit with quote" and the image shows in the post editor. I go back to the post and the image shows. WHAT THE HELL! Am I just missing out on 90% of FC images just because of some fucking...

    VapCap Induction Heater for Desktop and in Car Use

    I'd like the ID a little smaller but this one is just under .6" OD and very thin. You want something in the 1/2" ID or slightly smaller. The idea is centering the VapCap in the coil. the better the fit, the more parallel to the coil. The coil that came with the unit is basically a 3/4" ID...

    You caught onto where I was going @Pipes :cheers: Whoohoo! A new blister! Damn this things works well. Yep, floating around 1.4 amps idle. A little over 3 amps with a jeweler's screw driver. I need to go make a basket for the VapCap. ...and what do you know, what I thought was a teflon...

    Those are some crazy findings @TheThriftDrifter . I just got my std IH from China today. Seems China is starting to recycle solder. All the SMT components barely had any solder; I was able to pull the power connector out without heat! The coils had no fillet on the top side. It seemed the...

    I paid $5 for mine from China and it has a silvery coating inside the grind area to prevent buildup of resins. It really works well. I don't see that on too many offerings. I wonder if this is a ceramic coating? @beyond6strings Interesting design. I do like the shape of that tube for sure.

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Thanks @Abysmal Vapor . The cost of those adapters are worth it for the button alone. I need to stop by the hobby store and get some of that cellophane-type shrink wrap for the sub-C cells. Then I can make some wooden disks and cap off the ends of the sub-C cell. I might even peel off that...

    I suspect silicone X-rings are available through the RC hobby world. Problem is they rarely expose trade sizes in their offerings. We are looking for -007 and -008. -007 is 5/32 - 9/32 and -008 is 3/16 - 5/16. Knowing they are imperial sizes should help.
