No doubt about it if you hang around here long enough....... Or loan Ataxian money. OF

Assuming you meant "1/2 ID x 3/4" (not 1/3) yes either should work. Same ID (where it counts) different wall thicknesses. 1/16 or 1/8 inch. I generally find the thinner wall stuff easier to work with, especially for whips. No need to fight the tube....... Maybe I should have, although I...

Thanks for the heads up. Interesting idea, sorta like a Ubie with mechanical temperature indicator? Could be cool. Worth considering, which I will. Thanks again. OF

You have to push the up arrow key (once) to go to the preset. OF

That would be him. He doesn't hang around here, you'll have to go to him. True enlightenment is like that...... He had a recent run in with the heat in one of life's big injustices. Crushing, but true to form last I heard he was getting back on top. The world needs more like him for sure. OF

I sure don't think so. It's more of a ritual, you really 'get into it'. They are fun to use and I think more natural than something full of batteries for sure. VG can be very similar to traditional pipe smoking in fact. You put fire on one end, suck on the other. Sucking draws air through...

First off, howdy! Welcome to the Forum and all the fun. You're spot on, lots of great, helpful, folks around here. I'm sensing you'll be fitting in right there real soon. What's this "like an old guy"? Nothing in life is like being an old guy, nothing prepares you.... Your message is 'what...

Sage advice? You want our very own Vitolo......"Sage of the High Desert". OF

They're kinda far way.....and they make that call anyway. But there's nothing special here, really, lots of guys do this sort of stuff every day........although I agree few seem to hang around here. I'm sure GH can get all the support they want close to home. A FC designed vape could be fun...

Interesting question. For sure you don't want it magnetic I think since the power to charge will be magnetically coupled. Basically such schemes are usually transformers with the primary (driving) and secondary (driven) windings in each half. This means it's an AC deal, the current (and...

IIRC it means you rushed it too much....trying to set the temperature? Try it again and slow down would be my advice. Let it boot up. OF

Actually it's the other way around, TI is slightly better than SS. SS tends to be in the 2.5% range relative to copper: http://eddy-current.com/conductivity-of-metals-sorted-by-resistivity/ That means SS will heat 24% more (in terms of power) under the same conditions. The point is neither is...

You're welcome. Yes, the charge cuts off. The problem is it's at 100%. There's also usually a small current still flowing that does two things, it is used to detect the battery and it's used to 'unlock' dead batteries that have been cut off for protection. No need to worry about 'self...

It's your call, of course. Batteries are cheap and easy to replace so it's less an issue than say Solo. The idea is to avoid 100% charge. For instance, charge it up then run a session. That should put you at 75% or so charge, ideal for storage (that's the level they ship to you, right?). At...

Interesting change. I like Iolite (especially with 50mg or so of bubble hash in the middle......), great for relaxed sipping in the garden. Ascent is, IMO, very different. In construction, control and stealth. With care you can emulate Iolite no doubt, but it's flexibility in terms of...

No, I don't agree. It's answering some members' sincere questions. The very reason the forum exists? IMO cleaning is definitely part of this or any other vape. If you want to discuss 'thread fouling' how about we start with 'I just pulled the trigger on this vape', 'I just tried XXX strain'...

I'm afraid you're fighting a loosing battle. Pyrometers (optical thermometers, using IR) are basically light meters. So you need a spot version (rare, but around in the semiconductor/electronics world), which generally must be used at an exact distance. Mine 'sees' a .1 inch diameter spot...

No problems I know of, I do it every few months I guess, when the urge strikes. Our water here is quite soft. I run it empty (no dishes) but don't see why it wouldn't work as a detergent there as well? Never tried the clothes washer, like I said our water is not really a fouling problem. My...

I described my technique at the start of the discussion, which I recommend. Flush it under running hot then warm then cold water from the tap. Inverted of course. Shake out the excess and vape on. One of the PBW properties is 'rinsing clean'. A few minutes in the sink does it. OF

Must not have been hitting the VM seriously enough......... More practice is clearly needed. OF
