    The Arizer Air

    They do indeed fit very well, and being heavier gauge wire they are really tough. I 'flame' mine (heat them to glowing and brush the ash off after cooling, no ISO) and expect them to last dozens (if not hundreds) of such cleanings as long as I don't screw up. That's a dollar screw up, so I...

    So I just got my 'new' ESV 'from Darren'. I ordered a week or so back, it came FedEx and needed a signature (which seems a popular question sometimes). I got no notice from "Authorized Vaproizer Dealer" that it had been shipped, it just showed up in a reasonable time (about a week). I, of...

    That can be a bad move, for reasons you've discovered. Basically you ate some raw reclaim and chased it with a cup of Joe. You'll absorb a fraction of what you dose and get that in a quick peak. That's what the "massive visible pools of oil" are all about, CK didn't have it floating on top...

    The Arizer Air

    It's hard not to lose perspective on the wide spectrum of tolerance levels. We have a guy who goes a month on a gram! He's very active here, well respected (as IMO he should be), for sure 'knows his stuff' and should be listened to but he keeps his tolerance way way down to levels few if any...

    The Arizer Air

    That's a HUGE topic, full of lots of subjective opinions, sometimes in conflict with others. For instance, some like the metal end for reasons good to them while others dislike it for heat and other issues. Some of us like the look or idea of the materials, others see them as tools not works...

    The Arizer Air

    Thank you very much, honest reliable information is the idea. Informed choices and all that. I'm not alone in that of course, there are many good folks carrying that water, but it's very gratifying to be called out like that. As to the idea of Ed's stems, I see them as part art form. That is...

    Yes, Centizen researched it and bought a batch of the genuine batteries from the maker, depending on shipping and exchange rates (he's in Canada) he's a good source of the right units. But yes, the general feeling is the factory is the best/safest option and at most not much more expensive than...

    By all means do. But a curiosity question if you will, why? What is different/better? TIA OF

    Arizer Solo

    Similar materials, different design. There are 3 closely spaced ribs, rather than the single one in Solo. They too loosen up, but IMO at a slower rate and to a lesser degree so far. Conscious effort is needed to control the flow by stem adjustment there, at least for me. Solo has become...

    Arizer Solo

    Loose is pretty subjective to start with, but it varies widely with heat and the individual stem (they vary, too). Compared to stem vapes, the fit is very very tight. Solo doesn't rattle, really, but they can wobble around some. In fact, this is a feature. Once broken in, the seal generally...

    No, thankfully I've avoided that thus far. In such a mishap a ring might save the day but that doesn't change the point that that is not what the mod is intended to do, nor can it be counted on in all cases. It's a convenience (bent stem rotation) not safety fix. As designed, the downside...

    Good point, but the health benefits are also much larger? And there are other, less toxic, ways to get your nicotine. Combustion is the enemy here. Sometimes combustion is good, combusting butane in a lighter to heat your VM for instance......but blazing can kill you off young. OF

    They are intended to keep the bent stem from rotating as the unit is tipped due to gravity. No, that is not correct. They are not to keep the stem from falling out, the maker does not consider loose stems a fault (no warranty). Attempting to use them to 'keep stems from falling out' puts...

    When I've done this I used the 'soak it in melted wax' technique until the wax (Paraffin in my case) was well soaked in then pulled it out to drain off the excess. The wax needed to be quite hot so the wax stays liquid long enough to drain off well. These days I'd probably either use some hard...

    Thanks. I think it's a bit unfair to say 'we know' when in fact it was only you who knew (having inside information from Joe, and you didn't really know until then?). Based on your assurance we now know more. If you don't like speculation (rampant or otherwise) in the absence of solid...

    What should be clear? You said "I assume you'd have to download the firmware separately or get it from Elevape directly.". What do we really know? There is new firmware, we don't know what that is, what it does nor have we been told to do anything specific to install it. There is a new app...

    Yep, cigar lighters are poor matches, they're designed for delivering lower temperatures over a much wider area than we want. Some even use 2 or 3 burners to do that, a real problem when you're aiming at the bottom of the pan. OTOH, the shops that sell those fancy stogie lighters are a good...
