    % of vapor absorbed?

    Just seeing this thread now. So the answer is like 2/3 of the THC you inhale in getting absorbed. That seems pretty damn efficient. I had this same Arno Hazekamp paper, but part of what I think is his PhD thesis where that paper is one of 10 chapters. Its a really good reference so here...

    @Ratchett I think we're on the same page. Heater production is ramping up... I thought I heard 300 for that largest order size which is why I was wild-ass-guessing they must have close to 1000 heaters on hand by now. As for that "finalized version of one part" I was speculating/hoping it was...

    So it sounds like the bottleneck parts are the heater and also the screen and charging cable components. The heater sounds like its a dribble where they are trying to ramp up. On the charging cable, if there is a pcb change that could definitely be the holdup since that can easily take a...

    Coconut oil.. Really how long.

    I am sure you can go 45 minutes and get a perfectly good oil. In the culinary world, you can definitely infuse a lot of flavor into oil with a crushed clove of garlic in about three minutes. So I have to think you get quite a bit of transfer from ABV in coconut oil in just a few minutes. And...

    Ever have sex with a celebrity?

    This is a great thread/topic. I haven't come close to reaching this status. Closest was when we went to Squeeze in high school (if anyone remembers those guys) and this girl we were with ending up going backstage and shagging someone in the band. Might have even been Jules Holland but not...

    yeah I just looked on indiegogo and there's no indication that Ti models get a Ti case. they just call it "the smell proof case". Edit: ok @1_gr8_underdog that photo is a good counterpoint.

    Someone needs to buy the movie rights to this thread. "Green Schadenfreude" can be the title.

    Using a pressure cooker for butter/oil extracts

    I'm going to run another batch soon and will report back when I do. I give away my ABV edible experiments to friends and the yield on the last oil was so good that its taking a while to get through the last batch. Last batch was capsules using pressure cooker oil and the strength was good...

    This is what I am fearing next. Some type of tolerance buildup issue where some parts won't fit with other parts and the yield gets really low. I'm starting to realize that while I really like these guys and want them to succeed they are not the best at figuring out what obstacles might be...

    HipVap

    Like the design too, and the video, but in my world I'll attract more attention looking like I'm carrying around a flask than I would carrying around a lot of other vapes. But this looks like a mini-flask I guess so more like a battery charger with a nipple on the top. Looks like they are...

    Rize Vaporizer by Lifted

    Am I just enjoying 420 too much or do I not get the point of this. Guess its like a Pax for the concentrates crowd made mostly out of plastic with 510 threading which means I can use it with my W9 "8" vape or any ecig mod. Sort of a gateway vape for Pax users just getting into concentrates...

    Health of portable vaporizers

    Its a good question. My instinct is to say that if the vapor was entering your mouth at a temperature hot enough to scald, then you would feel it on your lips and mouth since the contact time during a hit on the inside of your mouth is longer than in your lungs. I can only guess that most...

    Welcome to FC! This soap opera of a thread is as good a place as any for a first post. I am pretty bullish on the GH overall but I agree with your assessment that this might not be the right "first vape" for a lot of people. The uncertainty around whether the GH delivers...

    @EveryDayAmnesiac your posts might be a little jacked up but I take no offense. I think you are making a valid point about human nature and how no one can ever be completely objective in their reviews. Especially prone to bias are: 1) people who are given exclusive access to early devices to...

    Yes! Its definitely a grounding strap. Ive been in quite a few circuit board assembly plants and can tell you, with 100% confidence, that the strap is there for quality control. Also worth noting that the picture is that of a hand soldering station (DIP rework or assembly) - i.e. a fairly...

    @BuzzDanklin since you seem to have a Pax 2 in your possession as well that would be a very interesting comparison from you. Good add for the white board.

    To Any Scotch or Bourbon drinkers.....

    Just found this thread. I have the house to myself this weekend, and with the weather warming up I've been able to open up the windows and enjoy a cigar with a glass of cognac or scotch. Today's lineup: In action: Shaping up to be a good day.

    Discontinued Pax 2

    Fast Company article just out: "Here comes the Whole Foods-ification of Marijuana" with a spotlight on the Pax 2 as how they describe vaping to a mass audience. Basically implies that the type of people who will pay more for high quality, thoughtfully-sourced weed are the same people who are...

    @BuzzDanklin appreciate the detailed post here and all the answers. Was reading your instragram posts and saw an interesting comment of yours regarding the 18-second timer: "Matt has told me so many times that they designed it to replicate hitting a piece and it definitely packs a punch."...

    That sounds like my world too. I went to a concert last week and got quite the obnoxious pat down. At festivals especially in recent years the pat downs have been getting worse. Don't get me wrong, last summer I had to make due with crotching the Ascent (the little bag that comes with it...
