I think you can get hits about as good with a SBL Maxx, but it requires learning the technique and paying attention to your draw and the vapor temperature and your hand position and the lighter flame length if you want to get close the VRod experience. And you have to pay attention! With the...

I find the tilt a little annoying too, but I'm not sure a locking mechanism is the answer. I lift the heater off after each draw, so a twist thing would be a little annoying. And what if it gets stuck? Making the tolerences finer to reduce wobble also brings risks of sticking. My solution has...

Using the WPA, I've put a little dab of wax on top of a bed of ground flower, at 440 F it seems to be fully vaporized (no sticky residue on the screen). For a dry mouthpiece you make a sandwich of flower, wax, flower. The flower acts like a blotter or wick for the wax. I think a mesh pad would...

Nice setup! I also use a dry ash catcher (I have one from TAG) with my VRod. I used to get a lot of crumbs with my shovelhead bowl, but since I've switched to using fixed stem bowls, I haven't seen nearly as much. (This isn't a complaint, I'm sure I had misconfigured my shovelhead.)

I'm puzzled about the battery reading / setting. I bought some 18650s from Amazon (Brand: Imren, Capacity: 3000MAH, Amperage: 20/40A, Voltage: 3.7V). I also have an external plug-in charger. The battery reading on the wall charger never matches the charge reading on the TUBO. I feel like I've...

I broke mine before I could even use it, dropped it on a friend's kitchen counter and it shattered. I saved the screen, hopefully you did also. I found the exact same piece on DHGate.com, searched under "quartz nectar collector tip 18mm". I found a seller with many transactions who had them at...

I just received my TUBOevic a few days ago, and I know it's the honeymoon phase, but I think I've finally found a battery-powered vape that can keep up with my butane vapes and FlowerPot. It's plain poplar with a black eVic. I got a medium wood stem along with a few other accessories, so what's...

Yass! On a whim I checked the store page earlier this week, and there were some Tubo Evics available! I've ordered mine and it's in "building". I have to admit I'm pretty excited! It's going to be poplar with no color, black Evic, long bent mouthpiece and PET whip. Then yesterday I added a...

Because rubies! I mean, isn't that enough reason? They're supposedly more durable than quartz, and certainly more so than ceramics. Since they're going to be hot and spinning fast, it could matter? Okay, this paragraph is guesswork, but educated guesswork. I'm dying to get my paws on one of...

I've been using quartz inserts with opaque bottoms I got from DHGate when I'm in the mood for getting out the torch. Not sure if mentioning specific stores is considered shilling, but it's not hard to find ones with lots of positive reviews. There's also sellers on IG that ship from the USA and...

Yes, explicitly confirming this. In my case, I had a SS heat post which was okay with the ShowerHead nut, minor sticking but it would come loose easily. When I got the VRod, the sticking became seriously bad. I bent my coil trying to get it free once (not much bend, I bent it back, seems fine...

That might have been me. Now that I have the Rev C VRod head and a 28.55 SiC dish... the wax container no longer fits over the dish! Looks like that .05mm is pretty significant... I hope whoever was talking with the lampworker has mentioned the new sizing.

The heat post sticking is caused by thermal expansion of the post. It was really bad for my VRod, I wound up bending my coil slightly trying to work it free. The Titanium heat post doesn't suffer from this problem, and until mine arrived, I avoided it by propping the handle of the coil up so the...

I didn't notice much difference in restriction when I switched from a SH to VRod. I almost never cap straight flower bowls, and I would describe my usual draw speed as "medium". I agree that the unrestricted airflow is one of the great things about the FP system. I run the controller at 700F for...

That would be awesome! Fingers crossed...

I was pondering this some more, and I think when you use a quartz insert in a quartz banger, the banger walls are higher than the insert, so there is heat from most directions. With the VRod, the heat is mostly underneath and a little up the sides. Making sure there is close physical contact...

It would be a heavy use day if I took more than 3 dabs off the VRod in a day; most of my concentrate use is with a Sai. So I could take the dish off and give it a cleaning before turning on the FP for the day... But that has not seemed necessary. A quick q-tip with distilled water after a dab...

Certainly true in my case. I sold off my ShowerHead about a week after getting my VRod; and I use the FlowerPot mostly for flowers (70-20-10, 70% flower only, 20% concentrate only, 10% twax).

Congrats! I came to vaping from 30 years of bowls, bongs, and one-hitters... The Flowerpot is the closest thing you can get to a "regular" bong hit in my experience. Just remember, some of the effects of a combustion hit are your body reacting to a lungful of smoke -- endorphins and...

My spheres are 6mm, of course... When I tried the fit in my 28mm quartz halos, they were too tight to move comfortably. I may have to find some 5mm's. Another reason we really need transparent carb caps! I did find a glass wax container that fits very nicely, actually. I just need a way to...
