My big hurdle is emulating a torch drop in where I soak the banger well above ideal temps (hot as the PID will let me - knowing this hurts the hardware), after a bit of soaking I change the target temp to something sane, load a dab into an insert, and then toss it into the banger as it comes...

This is very confusing for someone in Canada where the Omron RS-485 models are starting in the $250 range from places like Digi-Key and even direct from China they are over $200 USD, while the Auber has an MSRP of $105? I was expecting this to be around $150 less expensive per unit, but clearly...

@JCat Would the new Auber N1050 have any potential to slot in here and be compatible with your hard work?

> dish of inserts Dish of balls? I was probably thinking of the Pinky vape when I wrote that. :D

This scripting seems like it's just short of a fan relay option from making a dish of inserts heated by the FC E-Nail even more versatile than a US$699.00 Hybrid Volcano?

I have the same VVPS in a small plastic box. It's a great deal for what it does but it only swaps between 2 devices easily, getting it to recall M3 and higher is more keypresses than just picking a new output voltage. :p Enabling a DC out that you can store as a preset in a drop-down menu with...

Aye but that point forward the 'DC voltage reg' option would be $100 extra at the most, for a nice way to explore your VAS from a central point? Updating the software to allow control over more AC outputs would spike the value a lot more with very little hardware changes, so I'm still rooting...

Controlling a L298N is cheap and easy with the Pi? Must be a similar cheap and Pi-friendly option that would work up to 6 amps continuous? Heck you could just slap DC input/output terminals on the back panel to focus on the regulator effort instead of looking for a spot to cram in a DC PSU. I...

Yeah but if you have holes coming out the side of a barrel, and you slide a tube over the barrel, and shim it so it's blocked at the end, now there's an airway? If the tube you slide over is the same ID as the OD of the barrel and has spiral cut slits that line up with the air holes, then all...

Everytime I see these I think it would get a little bit more efficient with a slight tweak?

Yeah in the dental applications they deal with the topic almost like it's magic, starting off with a scaled up version of the final part, and then sintering it down under intense heat to get a pure ceramic result at a much smaller size: ...and that is being mindful that these sorts of private...

I was just seeing someone talking about making 3d printed ceramics where they use a photosensitive curing process followed by sintering the resulting ceramics to harden them for medical/chemical uses. We're almost at that sweet spot!?

This is exactly what I found on my chase for 'one hit completion'. It wasn't until I cheated, and got right up close to the heater tip, so that the heat was soaking into the bud from thermal conduction in the bowl, that the hot spot from the convection air was balanced out. In my case I had to...

Right now the software is managing a 120v AC Omron temperature controller but it would not be impossible to make the software more modular so it can manage a mosfet driver module for variable DC output. In fact this means there's potential to be able to ask a home assistant service to power up...

Can you get a 20mm coil over an 18mm male GonG? (I should just go look.) Even if you had to drop down to 14mm male, if you are forced to blow your own adapter, may as well make it an inverted shower cap where the coil is upside down and slid up under the lip of the cap so the outside face of...

Coil and glass combos are prone to heartache. The high five axial banger/coil combos that came paired up were a bit of a hit n miss back when you could still buy them. I had a set that were too loose/sloppy replaced with a set that cracked from compression on the first dab. The staff sending me...

Ah ignore me. I was super high and thought you were working on an easy way to retain the balls with a quartz cup that fits inside the heater. Now I look closer/read more I see those are the bodies you were talking about. :D

I am pretty new to the pi/arduino scene but it looks like a fancy little $7 load cell micro-sensor hooked to a $4 HX711 amplifier is all that is needed to put a gram sensitive scale on top of this controller? The value of a dabbing device that can do a weight read is probably mild, most people...

This is totally out of the blue, but that top cup you made, with the smaller center hole, should be a 'cure' for anyone with an Arizer EQ vape. I've been down a lot of the same roads over the years fiddling and I actually kept wondering how the EQ could be so bad when it's a ceramic rod heater...

With the baller mods causing the flowerpot to become more popular, the demand for an excellent PID is spiking up a bit, and yet still not likely to support the effort involved in marketing this grade of controller. But there are some national legalization efforts that could change things in a...
