    The Arizer Air

    Actually it does. It's all about temperature and pressure. There are formulas that link the two. In our case, since it's open, pressure is 'normal' (760mm). It's true, "Evaporated water, when trapped, doesn't just disappear.". It turns to gas, where each molecule now take a MUCH larger...

    Interesting. Then it clearly was not water. I suggest it was a thin coating of condensate that hadn't been cleaned. Like the world's worst finger print. The 'canned air', is a solvent, it simply washed it clean........ Water can only be a gas at 230F and sea level (or less). If you took...

    I almost hate to suggest this, but here goes. You can temporarily replace the 'back screw' with a wooden peg. Like the trimmed end of a wood toothpick. The 'front screw' has to hold the spring down against the wood for proper action, but the back one only needs to block rotation around the...

    The Arizer Air

    Why? Why is a bit of water clinging to the walls a problem? I rinse it well in tap water (so what's inside is safe and will completely dry), screw the top on, load up and go. If the bowl/screen area is 'sopping wet' I might wipe that out with a paper towel but otherwise water drops are a...

    While I too disagree with the 'we're so hostile we scare folks away' it's for a different reason than CK. I think folks with first hand experience to share, positive or negative, have been welcomed with open arms. Folks are anxious for information they can trust, for the very reason CK...

    I guess I don't share the opinion that 'all vapes are basically alike' in these areas. I think some, by their nature are more harsh than others. And while I agree many take a good deal of skill to get good results from, that's not true of all. Many are generally thought 'easy to learn' (like...

    Perhaps, if you can? You do understand the original idea was direct puffing was making folks cough? If that (coughing) was not an issue to start with........ Lots of restarts might be needed, and since the button is on the end this is most likely a 'two hand deal' if you're sucking on the MP...

    Unless, of course the GH senses the reduced flow and shuts down? A week or two back wasn't there a lot of concern with reports that unless you it it very hard it shuts heating off? OF

    I don't think it matters. I used the smallest Priority Mail box (USPS). It fits very nice an was a flat six (or was it 7?) bucks with tracking/insurance. Took two days to get there. OF

    Yes, several have reported trying, none successfully. Which is why that's not on the list of recommended things to try. We're trying to suggest stuff that has worked in the past? OF

    Agreed. I think that's the best call at this point. They're committed to making shipments at some level to keep new buyers joining in the way I see it. One might say 'buying some time' while they work out the problems. Others might say 'not digging themselves in deeper' (by putting more...

    Good luck. One place I worked at this happened a lot. We worked on Electron Microscopes, lots of tiny hardware which could not be magnetic (since the microscope runs on magnets.....). When you lost something into the works it was lost and taking stuff apart to find it was to be avoided if...

    Two suggestions consider. First poke a steel needle down the crack and try to contact the screw. Then put a strong magnet on the needle (which will make it magnetic at the end) and carefully withdraw the lot. Secondly, fit a fresh bag on the vacuum and vacuum the crack as best you can...

    OK, this is normal for this class of battery. It charges at a fairly high rate (say .8 Amps) for most of it's capacity. As it does so the voltage rises from something like 3.3 to 4.1 Volts or so. Up to about 85 or 90% of 'full'. Then the charge rate is lowered to keep the voltage from...

    Great 'repost'. I recall the first and you're right there was new information/insights this time. I agree with you about settings. The most useful guide is that bigger numbers are hotter. I have two units (one on loan right now). When I had them together I was able to tune the new one...

    Great news. We'll keep the beaches open (the edge of the even bigger pond.....) then. Good show it's salt water, that we got plenty of......fresh water is the problem. You might bring a few gallons with you for trading purposes with the natives? You'll enjoy the screens I think. Second best...

    While I understand where you're coming from, I caution you to consider we don't get an objective view of the real 'big picture'. As the saying goes, we get 'lots of self identified malcontents'. We hear mostly problems. In a way it's like asking a cop about marriage or the honesty of...

    You should definitely try the custom screens our very own Sinclue discovered: http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/the-arizer-air.16415/page-96#post-730350 They fit 'perfectly' and not only reduce the load a LOT but keep the herb close to the hot glass so the action is faster. Many of us are...

    It's pretty easy, click on the guy's user name next to his message, then click on "Start a conversation" in the window that pops up. That will take you to the PM area (also "Inbox" upper right on any page) where you can start, read or reply to each other. I just sent you a PM for...

    No, holding it upside down inserting and removing the stem controls spills. You really want to put the Air on the stem if you follow? Rather than insert the stem...... How you hold it to vape is another matter. Most guys fill to the lip eventually I think, but want to keep the herb in the...
