Most people simply fire these cartridges way too hot which is where the harshness stems from. With the right battery it’s probably the most controlled vaping process. I rarely fire carts over 2 volts. For reference sake, the very popular Ccell Palm battery, who is one of the biggest cartridge...

The main issue I see is you’re going to have a very small contact area between the hot plate and your battery. To improve that you’d need to raise the materials thermal conductivity, but doing so would cause your stored heat to dissipate rapidly. Personally I think the hot plate as a heat...

It depends on the composition and polish of the ceramic. Some of them clean up with just distilled water, but I usually use Simple Green Crystal or a baking soda + distilled water alkaline scrub to lift any baked on carbon. The baking soda paste will pull the chaz right off a crusty quartz...

They have to first facilitate a “crisis” to receive perpetual grant funding for research of said “crisis.“. It’s just money laundering in white coats.

If I did it the easy way (with O-rings) I could make a cooling unit that just integrates with your existing stock glass (or aftermarket titanium) stem. No toes stepped on. Rather than go with quartz or titanium, this would probably be made from ceramic for enhanced thermal properties...

Yeah I like glass stuff too, though I was thinking this might be a cool solution for on-the-go usage. Something small, discrete, maybe drop-proof. The one I tried from Arb had a stainless steel spiral wound ribbon coil, maybe i’m confusing the model, but it was different from the mesh...

I almost bought a TinyMight last week so I could develop some stuff, every time @Shit Snacks says if he could only have one it’s the TM it makes me want to get one. Arb let me try Alan’s iHeat 510 which uses a similar spiral heater and it was my favorite portable experience yet, so I’ve been...

I guess I don’t see as much appeal to induction heating this vape. Seems like it would take a long time and have poor battery life. It would be much more practical to heat it up in a tabletop convection toaster oven, perhaps underneath a frozen pizza and tray of French fries.

Sapphire would be better as it’s both more conductive and less dense. The stem might still be hot though, as the beads will transfer heat from the hot air and put it into the stem, since there’s not much else to displace it. My more recent TM stem designs just use air cooling (like my Dyna...

Any tips for getting the Anvil cleaned up good as new? I have most of it looking good, only thing left is the condenser has some baked on oils that are being stubborn against my usual methods. I’ll probably try Bar Keepers next. I really gotta get this thing sent on to its rightful owner! The...

Are you still using the condenser or did you smash a bottom screen inside the oven?

It would be the same reason as my above post; the jacket will transfer heat to the bowl faster than incoming air through the cap could be heated. The tip is being heated by the cap and it’s 400w/MK copper jacket (heatsink) whereas the air is only being heated by stainless steel or titanium at...

The anvil uses too many proprietary parts to be a good candidate for aftermarket stems. It would require basically an entire redesign. All you gotta do is take one apart, all the pieces need each other to function. Also this FMJ should be showing people that this was never really about...

Well I don’t know about the Volcano Hybrid as I haven’t used a Volcano in ages and never owned a reducer chamber with mine; but with the Mighty the inverted capsule lid nests into the taper of the aluminum bowl, which gets heated directly by the bowl via conduction, which so long as it’s making...

I decided to just order the prototype, I’m not near good enough at math to do those simulations. 😋 If there’s too much rotational energy on the exit perhaps a diffuser could be added, as you mentioned. Actually if you inverted the pitch of the outlet that might revert the vortex flow - sort...

Yeah that’s my bad, I shouldn’t expect people to read my mind, I guess just posting these things sometimes makes me feel a little nervous; so I never really know what to say. Not really the best at “putting myself out there” so to speak. I guess there’s no reason to hide what’s inside, it’s...

Nice to hear your still rocking it! The inverted dosing capsule lid adds conduction to the top of the herb, so it’s getting conduction from the sides and the top, plus convection from below. Powerful!

Mid-Vape Crisis 😂😂

Thanks friend! 🥳🥳 that tube was made by a local shop, I had been wanting a fully worked beaker for quite a while so I finally treated myself to it for my last birthday 🎁 All of the colors are fumed from vaporized precious metals which I think fits right in as a vapor rig!!
