    Discontinued VRIPtech Heating Wand

    After looking closer, only the bigger Wicked Sands piece with LW trees on ALT has an ice pinch- the shorter one doesn't. It's a bit too tall and narrow for me - 20" tall, 5" wide at the base but much thinner the rest of the way - my 100Lb old english bulldog would definitely break it. He's...

    Hmm. You'd think they'd give you a decent one stock. Thanks for the info on the nano - may be worth the extra $$ for the Strato.

    Discontinued VapeXhaleLabs Presents: The Cloud

    That's good to hear. I have an MW as well, usually glass that is good with the MW is good with the VHW. The VHW does seem to be a bit more sensitive to airflow IMO, but it can also produce thicker vape than the MW (again, just my opinion / experience). This is one of the reasons I'm so...

    So anyone actually gotten their hands on a Mobius Matrix and vaped through it, with either a beta Cloud or a VHW? Been looking for something with ice pinches that'll vape as well with a VHW (and when it comes, a Cloud, though the cloud seems less finicky) as my LW 15 arm bubbler. Some of my...

    In general, I agree - most of my pieces with better 'chug' are also the ones that produce the best vapor. The only exception was a Grid inline that had incredible chug but was not vapor friendly. However, it was a hole rather than slit inline with unusually large holes, and IMO the holes...

    I have also successfully used my Sherlock VG top with my Magick Wand bowls, both the 18mm and 14mm. I hale also slipped a grommet onto the end of the Glass Bat VG and used it that way in 14mm glass. Only thing I tweaked in the MW bowls was to put the screen a little higher, - just stacked a...

    So I got my replacement heater cover, and I now have two working VHW v2s. Also picked up the VWT Perk that was for sale over on the sales forum. It works great with both wands, as does my LW bubbler- can get milky vapor in both, though the LW is still milkier. Can't take ice though. Which...

    Been playing with the Glass bat VG. Here's what I think so far: Though the ceramic filter is a full inch in from the opening, it appears it takes less lighter time to vape out of this than the glass sherlock VG. Not unexpectedly, though, it does hit hotter and harsher - but all bats in my...

    Just received my glass bat VG. First thing I noticed is it has a different name printed on it, "Vaporocket". Does look a bit rocket-like. First impressions- the ceramic filter is farther down the tube than it is in the top of the glass sherlock VG. I haven't owned any non-glass VGs, so I...

    I went ahead and ordered the glass bat. I have frankly come to love my glass VG so much that I was considering buying a back-up to have for when I eventually break this one (I know it will happen one day :() Every day I have it, I'm more impressed with this vape. Have dialed in the exact...

    Anybody try the new Glass Bat VG? Just saw it on their site. They say they think its more durable than the glass VG, which they're now calling the "Glass Sherlock VG". Here's a link to a pic: https://www.vaporgenie.com/components/com_virtuemart/shop_image/product/open.JPG4e1b73f95dfb3.JPG

    charliedontsurf Off topic again, but I tried as you suggested with the Glass vapobowl, and putting the screen farther down made a huge difference. Thanks for the tip.

    Just been messing with a couple of torch lighters and the VG now. Definitely faster than using a soft flame. Have to be careful with my hotter lighters though- combusted a bit. I'm sure once I play with it for a few days that won't be a problem. I've tried everything you mentioned with the...

    Hey folks. My Glass VG just came. I've never used a VG at all before, but had heard some negative things about the old ones. But everything I heard about the glass one was awesome. And all I can say is - WOW! I'd about given up on lighter-driven portables (not counting the Supreme, but I...

    Discontinued VRIPtech Heating Wand

    Thanks for the input, folks. I went ahead and ordered the heater cover, rather than the VHW 3. That's because I found one of my older broken VHW 2s, and after soldering a single wire, it appears to be working, just needs a heater cover. So with that for the VHW 2, I'll have a pair of 2s...

    Discontinued VRIPtech Heating Wand

    You're tempting me to order the 3. If I was sure its cover would fit the 2, I'd definitely do it. I love the VHW 2 so much I don't want to risk being unable to use it. I need to vrip and think on this. Hmmmm. Anybody out there successfully used a 3 heater cover on a 2? Or anyone NOT been...

    Actually, not anymore - that's where I got mine from. It's been updated now. Anybody know how serious a crack in the inner sleeve of the heater cover is? It seems to be working fine, though it feels like I;ve had to turn the heat up higher since then. My main concern is if there is a safety...

    Thanks for the advice. I'm already using the 14mm slide with my 18mm pieces. It is definitely the drag thats the difference. In my LW piece, it's really easy to control your draw strength and rate. Harder on the other pieces. But I already busted something! While untangling the cord...

    Hey fellow vrippers I have just re-acquired a VHW 2 after about a year with a pair of broken ones. I'd forgotten how absolutely wonderful the vapor from this puppy is. Haven't touched any of my other vapes since this came - it's my daily driver again. But I noticed something I'd seen in some...

    That definitely has more silicone than my slightly older unit - I only have the bottom four rings. But I have never burned myself on this, ever. Of course I owned a VHW for a couple years before this, so I'm used to the issue. FInally posting my three way comparison - LSV v VHW v Magick Wand...
