IMO... (non owner) I would have put the valve on the intake side of the airflow not after the bowl.
I can't see it makes any difference than what can be had from a slow draw.
Now the valve on the intake side would effect boiling point.
Slight vacuum changes vapor point and in turn a higher...
I'm interested in the Venty. I can afford one.
There is a theme I have applied the majority of my adult life. I don't mind spending money, I just don't want to waste it.
S&B in my opinion has not earned my money in so far as the Venty is concerned. In time, maybe, once they get the bugs worked...
Titanium melting point at 1668c / 3034f. Preferred welding method is pulsed tig, as to keep the temps down.... my understanding is as you mentioned, oxidation, and I will add embrittlement.
Oxy/Acétylène cutting tip will get up to 3000f ball park. If memory serves that is where Titanium...
Fun thread.... I remember when Cutting Edge Rock and Roll was only on AM radio in Southern New Mexico.... KOMA/Oklahoma City.... 8 tracks, Columbia Music club, lol.... A love that never dies.... 🎸

FC site has been an education... conversing...

Pax Mini Guide f/POTV
From here it says that the mini has only one temp setting. It says it increases based on the pull. It implies that as it material heat soaks, the vapor is stronger.
The unit I have is a Pax 3. 1/2 lid, level no pack, compress with the lid. I start on level 2, and heat...
Still got one, just incase. :smug:
Their efficient too. Some of us remember the dry times. As ole Freak Out Freddie Said.... Weed will get you through times of no money, but than money will get you through times of no weed !!!!
Carts, I see as a 2nd choice portable. Stealthy enough but can fall out of shirt pocket. (Retired, but still love to play mechanic)
For 4 decades the pinch hitter (bat) was my choice in portability. Never thought of damage to the box, even in heavy labor situations. Pax Fits that same bill...
This might come with age, and/or a deeper understanding of value. In my youth & mid-life I was extravagant in many things.
2 Dry Herb devices and a dab rig. The Banger has been collecting dust for several years now. It can for me to be too much, and unpredictable.
This is where FC began for...
As someone who worked 40 years in the corporate world, what I see is simple..... They care about their reputation primarily. "The Brand" ... and rightfully so. No Medium to Large Business can do otherwise and survive.
Care about me? NO.... Neil Peart said it best.... Big Money Has No...
:cheers: My Thoughts exactly..... Yes, I am in the market to replace the Pax 3 which has served me well for years now. Cant take the Ball Vape "out there". I see many folks who forked up $450 and take it in the keister and beg for more. I got my quirks too. I ride a Harley.... but I don't...
The T360 to me, at least on paper appears to be the best designed wide range (.05-.5g loads) Ball Vape on the market. Now the Titanium bowl is an option, looks even better. /cheers
to me... it's "A little bit of Heaven"
