    In my case the plastic on both sets of chamber housings are somewhat flexible in certain circumstances, but not like it seemed to be in the vapecritic review. The housings are going to bend a little bit in some spots where the plastic is less reinforced, but I don't think that the plastic used...

    Whatever option they might try should insulate the person using it from heat when they are removing it from the hybrid, at least with the current working design. If an all-metal housing would do that it would be great, but I'm not sure that it would. Could fiberglass be a good option? On paper...

    I'm not pressing the chambers out with my fingers, instead I am tapping them out with the butt end of the cleaning brush. In the case of the upper chamber I have to roll the o-ring off first, and I can do that part with the brush handle or my fingers. It takes a little practice. It does not...

    Volcano Hybrid

    I'm not okay with it, but I am relieved that I am seeing some promising signs of both a workaround, and that I may not have been actively inhaling plastic gases into my lungs via a whip system for the past few months. If you read some of my earlier posts you'll see that this is exactly what I am...

    Volcano Hybrid

    I have had my hybrids for about the same amount of time as you have, and I definitely have burns on the upper and lower chamber housings. The replacement volcano S&B sent me later had a new replacement chamber housing which, as far as I can tell, is identical to the one I originally received...

    You should be worried about it. Plastic gases are toxic, and I'm taking this very seriously. I've had tasty kief sessions with it for sure, but it doesn't appear to have done any damage to it that I can tell. I'll try to be more careful, but f**k me, the use of kief in a vaporizer of this kind...

    Volcano Hybrid

    I can't speak for anyone else, but neither of these things are a problem in my case because I don't use concentrates with it, I brush out the screens and chamber after every use, and regularly clean everything with alcohol. Besides the burned indentions on the original housings they are still...

    Volcano Hybrid

    First off, this was a great observation even if it isn't a welcome one for me to read in any way. Thank you so much! When I checked the plastic chamber housings on my hybrid I have similar burned indentions on both the upper and lower one. If you are unable to see it on your upper housing use a...

    Seconded, but I wonder if the alleged new Mighty was being developed to use app-exclusive features. Something like that could cause the release of it to be seriously delayed, or anything else S&B might have in the works for that matter. All I know is that the Crafty+ launch has been rocky to...

    Volcano Hybrid

    No problem! The issue is how the item is listed on amazon, and if you look at the reviews one other person appears to have bought it and felt misled. It probably should have been worded something like, "volcano vaporizer 3 meter roll of bag/balloon material". When I glanced at the item from the...

    Volcano Hybrid

    Maybe I'm not following this. The poster said that they had a hybrid model, and they wanted to use a solid valve system to see if it would improve the flavor any. To my knowledge the hybrid's chamber is a newer design that screws into the unit and allows for better conduction heating, and the...

    Volcano Hybrid

    Did you find out if the solid valve set will fit, and actually work well, with the the hybrid's new style of screw-in chamber system? This seems like it wouldn't, and if it did I really doubt that the flavor would improve from doing this or changing the bags. Also, Storz and Bickel's website...

    No doubt that I occasionally rip on the hybrid whip, but I have never gone full honk on it. I figure I'm probably packing it a bit loose and ripping a bit hard for the pack. I can sometimes get maybe close to the top third of the chamber reducer's herb content to spew out onto the ring after a 5...

    Volcano Hybrid

    In my opinion you are correct! I notice no difference in flavor compared to the regular chamber (except if I use a dosing capsule) and it gets me right where I want to be. All for zero calories In my experience, this is sometimes true? Maybe half the time that I use the reducer and whip there...

    Volcano Hybrid

    I really appreciate the suggestions! At the time that I wrote that the hybrid needed cleaning, so I was working on that and thinking about how I might go about getting some of the reclaim next time around. I have done alcohol extractions before on other things. It isn't ideal but it works, and...

    I feel you on that. I re-adjusted to using the mighty more often in the hybrid's absence, but it isn't the same. Just a guess on my part, but I would say it will take 15 days (or a bit less) to get it replaced. Hopefully sooner! While I think that I pretty much have the bag workflow "dialed...

    This happens to me with the chamber reducer quite a bit without any broken clips. It will screw in to the metal nozzle, and when I try to open the chamber up after using it the bowl stays attached to the nozzle. I have to remove the o-ring and detach the nozzle in order to open it. So far I...

    Make no mistake about it. What you are getting for all that money is a very strong, maybe the strongest, flower vaporizer on the market today. None of the vapes I currently own provide nearly as powerful of an effect as my hybrid does, however it is my first desktop vaporizer and I don't have a...

    I don't think there would be much of a difference either way, but personally I have never used the dosing capsules. Even with their portable units there just doesn't seem to be any reason for me to load some up, but other people use them all the time. For the sake of science I will try one and...

    I've noticed that the nozzle gets a nice, even accumulation of reclaim when I clean it. I doubt that it would be a good idea to scrape that off due to potentially getting metal fragments with the reclaim, but I'd consider trying an alcohol extraction on it sometime. Between that and the screens...
