Bummer. I guess I rank the short all glass at the bottom use wise. I like the plastic topped ones for Air, they seem 'natural' given it's compact nature. When it comes to glass I like the full size Solo version more, I assume you were an early buyer and got a straight Solo stem instead of the...

Cool. Still thinking about it myself. A tip for next time on that 'still sit flat' part: Put the magnet on a piece of wax paper, put a drop of epoxy on top of it to bridge the gap, then put the egg down on top. Any glue that spills won't stick to the wax paper. You can keep the magnet 'just...

Quoting my PM a moment ago: If you got all the plastic all the solvent smell should evaporate off. Too bad you used 'flavored' ISO in a way. I suggest cranking it up and letting it cook? OF

Thanks. No chance on ISO, try it on the cap and see. Won't even soften it. You need a solvent for that plastic. And a steady hand to confine it exclusively to the bo-bo since it will also attack other plastics it can get to. If I were against it I'd use a pipette or maybe a q-tip to moisten...

Yes, but that's not load temperature control, it's source temperature control like ESV does. Or Herbal Aire. HA takes the idea to extremes with LOTS of surface area and working temperature basically the source temperature. The thermal core as designed is not only fairly stable temperature...

ISO won't 'cut' most plastics, that is it's not a solvent for them, like it does with vaping residues (which it will dissolve.....). Depending on what plastic you melted, there may be a solvent that will work if carefully done (stuff like MEK, Toluene, Acetone, Fingernail polish remover, and...

As long as we're on the obvious, since the bore of the oven reads .493 on mine, I used half inch round one. .500 is a snug fit, .375 inches a very poor one.....unless of course it's square (in which case 3/8 is probably the right size). Really. OF

The vents are, I think, proper design. They compensate for the lack of metal to conduct away the heat that 'leaks through' the oven body. Heat management is a complex thing sometimes, calling for serious use of 'heat flow' (thermodynamics). Raising the temperature by blocking the vents is...

Fun stuff indeed. I'd be concerned that such an element would 'swim' under heating and hit the wall (shorting out part of the element, overpowering the rest?). The ceramic core was to counter that in the original that had more mechanical stability to start, but if it's working it's working...

Yep. The very first ones came with two different length plastic tipped stems and a straight Solo stem. Kinda doesn't fit with the idea Solo and Air stems don't fit Air. The shorter stem came several weeks later. My guess is they got to release and decided they needed an 'all glass stem' to...

Love it! 'Charge over there, use over here' does take it to a whole new level. You buy a portable with it's higher cost and power limited performance to get away from cords seems sort of a step backwards, somehow, even though I will use the 'true PA' feature of older Solos if I'm sitting at...

My tip is don't get hung up on it. It's not necessary as you stated. Cloud chasing/obsessing on visible vapor can be a counterproductive hold over from blazing. IMO the two are basically the same. THC obviously doesn't depend on visible vapor. Lighting also plays a huge role sometimes...

With you there (as I've already said). Both have long histories of strong support for these Forums, first rate Customer Service and price matching legitimate offers. IMO if it's important to you you should give them the chance to match (although PIU being in the US, with US Dollars rather than...

I didn't ask, and don't intend to. Just a suggestion. I'm not sure what their 'I don't like this after all' policy is, I would not be surprised to hear it's generous based on their Customer Support history though. Enjoy your Solo, no matter where it comes from, it's a good 'un for sure. OF

So many questions, Grasshopper, all of them good ones. Charging is controlled in the ESV, I believe set in hardware. That is my 'under 100' S/N came back still at .5 Amps while my 'out of the box' 1000 range one came at 1 Amp but with the same .5 Amp charger as before (so it never charged at...

Have you seen if PV will match it? Many Dealers will if they see it as direct competition, which it seems is the case here? OF

In general, no. The general advice is to recharge at a rate to replace a full charge in 1 to 2 hours. Given those choices I'd go with one Amp, two might cause more heating than necessary? However, I still recommend following the maker's advice and not using external chargers other than...

You mean like how Tequila shots make you a fantastic dancer? In addition to making you bullet proof, of course. OF

It doesn't come apart, at least mine doesn't. IIRC there are two pieces of metal (Nickle plated Aluminum) that are pressed together (with an arbor press) with the disk inside. You add moisture in place, either a couple of drops (as in "drip tip" e-cigs) or (my favorite) run it under the...
