    Discontinued The Persei Vaporizer for herbs and concentrates.

    I use a 3/8" ID silicone tubing and it works great connecting to my wpa & bubbler. Hedo edit: Watch out for blowback tho. You really need to carb the connection or you'll see little puffs of vapor coming out the sides of the Herc when you stop inhaling. I just make sure to lift the wpa to...

    You might want to look at this place for a backup USB cable. http://www.monoprice.com/Category?c_id=102&cp_id=10303 They have all flavors and lengths of USB cables at cheap prices. IME the quality has been quite good. I've been using them as my source for years for all types of cables. Hedo

    11.1v at 0.6 ohms draws 18.5 Amps :o! and if the batteries are fully charged to 4.2v that would be 265 watts at 21 amps!! Do you have batteries that can handle that kind of drain? Hedo edit: what is the current limit of the fuse that is supplied with the 8?

    Regarding the Herc's efficiency I would like to submit the following based on my actual usage data. In my last half year of almost exclusive daily Herc use I go through 1 gram of wax in 2 weeks (yes I'm a light weight) except for the 1st gram when I'm priming the oil coil which only lasts 1...

    Actually, I think it became more of an issue when the Ti oil coils were introduced with the SR74. The old ss coils were about 3 times longer than what was needed to vape the typical waxes available in dispensaries so people cut them down to about the size as what the Ti coils later became (~4mm...

    I did a very similar thing with my Herc. When the flavor degraded after 6 grams of wax went through it I took the upper section with the heating rod and coil still in it and heated it upside down with a vari-temp heat gun until all the accumulated wax residue dripped out. That was enough to...

    I just received the oil coil and ss top cap for my surplus SR71. Many thanks to you and @nao12000 for taking care of this so quickly!

    I would be very worried if my heating rod moved at all during assembly. Shifting rods are how a lot of shorts developed in SR71s. I hold the rod retaining nut with a pair of pliers and with my other hand twist the upper chamber into the nut (with the rod in place of course) about as tight as I...

    G, I would like clarification on the oil coils for the surplus SR71s. I've been PMing Naomi (@nao12000) and she is going to mail out my missing SS top cap next week. I also opened a ticket at W9 about the missing top cap and coil (ticket #2453398). But it is not clear to me about what will be...

    Cheap High Quality Bubbler

    You know, I've been wondering for a long time but never see it discussed here, why haven't these Chinese glass makers made GONGs? At least for the Solo. There're almost never available domestically and I'm sure they'd sell a few thousand. The design is simple enough. Am I missing something...

    I noticed the bottom adapter didn't have the grooves for the o-rings, so I tried my nibbler XL and it seems to still work OK. As long as the top o-ring on the mouthpiece makes an airtight seal it works. It's just a little less stable. Oh, I also wanted to mention that there is no AAF washer in...

    I can wait for the oil coil since I have spares. But :doh: I just realized that I didn't get a stainless steel top cap with my SR-71. Is this part back-ordered too or was this an oversight? I just fully disassembled the whole thing and all the other parts are there. Did anyone else get their...

    Well I just received my surplus SR-71 from W9. Looks good and measures 1.7 ohms (I prefer 1.5 ohms but this will certainly do). BUT my new SR-71 did not come with an oil coil. I thought that 1 Ti coil was supposed to be included. I'll PM Naomi @nao12000 and see if she can send one out for me...

    I believe both old and new Iris go down to 3.0v. Yes, you have to use double stacked batteries (or a Core). BTW, Isis is a terrorist group in Iraq and Syria. Iris is a vv top for the Persei. Easily confused, I know! :rofl:

    Wise and mighty, huh? :lol: I gotta show that one to the wife! She'll think I have all of you fooled. :rofl: Yes, the Iris requires 2 batteries for the input (or a Core) since it is designed to operate off "7.4" volts. So either 2 18350s with the standard Persei tube or 2 18650s using the SS...

    @chingdaddy I remember you! A while ago you asked in this thread whether anyone had an Iris available and were soundly mocked for such a ridiculous request. Well, it looks like your having the last laugh. Good on ya! edit: Did you wind up paying the requested $500?

    I'm jealous. My Iris died a month or two ago. (god I miss my Iris! :cry:). I don't think there ever was a manual for the v1 Iris. First, 5 taps of the power button to turn on and 5 taps to turn off. Use the + and - buttons to set the output voltage you want. Press and hold the - button to read...

    But a constant what is the question. The Herc is really looking for constant voltage supply not a constant wattage supply. The fact that Herc increases in resistance during the first few seconds of operation is a performance feature (as well as a safety feature) that delivers a boost of energy...
