    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    It seems, from an unscientific view (i.e. I've not read anything definitive), the terpene's with the lower boiling points are more likely to be an irritant for those people who are more sensitive to this. The strains that tend to having higher levels of these terpene's are those generally known...

    What an apt term! 😁 So you never experienced this before with any previous vape you've used? A couple of weeks doesn't sound like very long, particularly if you've not had experience with ball-vape style devices which take some getting used to and beyond the most basic principles have quite...

    @Brenyo often chucks in a few extras when posting out orders (so much better than bloody sweets!), an extra screen was quite possibly due to that, I don't think it was a listed part... From the site: What's included? Titanium Tempest Direct and Helix Airflow Tube 2.5mm Zirconia balls within...

    They look very nice guy, I especially liked the second from left on second photo with the spiralling streaks.

    There are much better solvents than iso to remove non-polar organic compounds. If you do use iso, get 99% purity, the less water in it th better it dissolves. Non-polar solvents will work best, such as light grade petroleum based products or alkanes like butane though flammability and toxicity...

    I'd suggest adding an LED to really light that blue up! 🙂 But just wait until I finish constructing my liquid helium vape cooler! I just need to miniaturise it enough to fit indoors and I'm sure it'll be a winner!

    How effective would you say it is? I presume enough to be worth the extra effort? (It's not just to look cool? 😉)

    Only speaking from general principles so I may be totally off the mark, but wood is a pretty good insulator, and as such should not only keep the vapour from declining temperature as much as glass or metal would, but as a side effect of that should see much less of the vapour condensing on the...

    That's very cool! 🥶 Out of interest, what's the liquid?

    Tried SiC which had good staying power but tended to combust just a wee bit too easy. Tried Boro which I like with a loose packed full bowl when I want to take it close to the mark with fewer draws. And the default Zirc's for a slightly denser packed bowl and not quite so roasted. I've got 2...

    From my experience using the insert, it takes such a small change in position, like 1mm, to make a noticeable difference (and I couldn't hold the pest so steady as not to let it drift by 1mm or more), plus I suspect the 'pest is not designed to be heated much lower in the coil - MH make a point...

    Not exactly sure what you mean about the pest fitting through the Wand. The Tempest comes with a Wand adapter cup that sets how deep into the coils the pests head is positioned. If you meant the width of the Wand's coil (in it's housing) then it's going to fit the Tempest with ease, since the...

    @Fearless Disaster If you haven't already, check out the Tempest's Manual page (link to Manuals at bottom of MH webpages). It's very comprehensive, probably one of the best from a vape manufacturer. It should answer most questions fairly clearly: https://madheaters.co.uk/pages/tempest-manual...

    Not to mention it could be a bit dangerous. As far as I understand, the molicels are not only high capacity, but specially designed for high output, it ain't just the amps, but how many a second. And over stressing a less high specced battery could cause it to overheat with possibly, er...

    Then you know better than I, though I was taught to be pragmatic about it, and to focus the annealing at the places where the stresses were more likely to occur, which is why I mentioned the joints and the fact the mouthpiece is less of an issue than them. I bow to your experience! To be honest...

    If I had to guess, I'd imagine something like SiC would be better for cooling, high heat conduction, high density, so it can suck up heat quickly, and hold a fair old bit too. I think from memory ruby's are lower conduction so take longer to heat/cool. I wonder if stainless steel bearings would...

    Difficult to judge I think, unless you mean natural ruby (which I'd guess are unlikely to be better anyway), as I believe synthetic rubies are moderately cheap and easy to manufacture, and as far as their physical properties are perfectly good for their use.
