MV1 capsules are oval and likely wouldn't fit anything else, you should go over to the Bowle thread to ask about the diameter of those capsules.

The Ghost MV1 and Bowle would like a word with you. Both use (used) ceramic pods. Ceramic is good because it pulls heat out of the airstream slower than metal, but it also doesn't provide much conduction heating. Metal capsules have been more successful, so far, in a range of vapes.

This usage pattern isn't really compatible with most "straight from the heater" convection vapes. A ball vape with a good size heat reserve might be able to keep up. I wouldn't consider this a failure of the Venty, more of an unapproved usage situation.

Thanks for the info, I forgot all about this. So that magnet has enough pull to make the contact just pop on to the battery and stay? Clever. Usually electronics manufacturers try to make reverse engineering really hard, an exposed SPI does take most of the challenge out of it.

Balls provide a nice combination of thermal mass for storage and high surface area for fast thermal transfer. It's difficult to get that amount of surface area from a solid milled block. With less surface area and heat transfer capability the thermal store has to be hotter which can lead to...

That doesn't seem ideal for a pure convection vape. The metal bowl is going to be stealing heat from the air stream throughout the first hit and will likely never get quite hot enough to add useful conduction. I would expect it to heat like the Ti stem or a capsule, a little muted compared to...

All of the other Fury related clones are made by Weecke, it's virtually certain that these are as well.

A standard 12 V ZVS board will almost certainly fail at 20 V. They can survive on voltages lower than 12 but there may be a point where too low of a voltage will kill it as well.

Vacuum purging equipment is expensive for the old school illegal basement extract makers but all the commercial businesses have it. There may be quality control issues, but it's unlikely to be a left over butane issue.

If the stem isn't getting hot the heat has to be going somewhere else, into your lungs. This is how cooling stems are supposed to work.

Sure, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B082RHNWLQ . I use it for an Orbiter globe which takes 1/4 in ID and 3/8 in OD. "Food grade platinum cured" silicon tubing is the type you want. My understanding is this same size works for the small globes popularized by SneakyPete and VGoodiez. You...

So they didn't stop everything, shut down the factory and recall all the devices because you have a concern? That's shocking, surely they should have gotten on their knees to thank you for deigning to speak with them.

That will work, just keep in mind those exposed 230 V terminals are a significant safety risk Find some kind of sturdy box to keep that in so fingers never get close to the terminals and nothing can be dropped on them.

Some units smell very strongly of recently worked Oak which smells a little fishy. It fades with time and use. The same is true of new o-rings, which can be a little plastic smelling at first. It fades on it's own, or faster with a quick soak in baking soda and water. The o-ring sizes are...

Keep in mind the tubing from Elev8 is vinyl not silicone and is significantly bigger in diameter than the tubing used with the whips for small globes. If you have glass end bits for your whip you have to buy the matching size. I get mine from Amazon, but that's in the US.

A 50 W supply is definitely undersized, even for that small (seems too small) coil. Some people have had success with 72 W supplies but I wouldn't use anything less than 100+ W (8 A max continuous current at 12 V). You can pick one of these up for less than $20 on Amazon.

I don't have personal experience to tell you which is best. From posting activity it seems the interest in external jackets is starting to fade. If I wanted something along these lines I would probably go for the Anvil, it has a good reputation.

I haven't tested this but I don't imagine it makes any difference. The only problem with soft flames is the soot, otherwise it's like any torch. None of the jacket types require spinning to my knowledge. Some people prefer silver because they worry about copper "fumes", otherwise no...

I like the smooth clean lines, I've never really liked the BCG's shape (it seems unnecessarily bulky). Maybe put out a video showing how easy it is to turn. If the teeth cut really well maybe a little palm pressure is all that is required and grip strength won't be a factor?

Power tool batteries do NOT have built in protection. You have no protection from over discharge or short circuit. This is like not trusting the parachute and jumping out of the plane without one.
