    iHeat 510 Heater Cartridge

    The glass insert is 18mm. If you have been on the list in the past, your name may have already come up again. Send me an email so I can check. @rosedale - There are so many different mod boxes available. Here are a few things to consider. One battery vs two. Models with one battery will be a...

    iHeat 510 Heater Cartridge

    The heater is made from a 316 ss mesh with a surface area similar to the milaana, but it is formed into a spiral shape. The wires are also connected to the mesh in a different fashion than the milaana. The mesh is wrapped around the wire ends and crimped to ensure maximum conductivity. You are...

    iHeat 510 Heater Cartridge

    I make a desktop vaporizer called the Insta Heat (aka iHeat) which consists of a base section with a 12 volt input that controls the voltage to the upper heater section. The two sections are connected together with 510 threaded fittings which allows the upper heater section to be connected to a...

    The SS heater cover gets hotter than the glass heater cover at a given voltage, so it will produce larger clouds. The SS heater cover will accept the SS roasting tips and the glass heater cover will not. All of the other style of roasting tubes will work with both heater cover styles.

    Insta Heat (aka iHeat)

    Thanks @Crussell27 There are so many more wood options with the smaller size. @Andreaerdna - That is a good idea for the portable naming. Maybe just the Insta Heat 510 Cartridge. The button of an unregulated mechanical mod can be used to manually control the heat. I have tried to use the...

    Sorry that I haven't got them up on the website. I have some glass heater cover units for $50 each and stainless steel heater cover units for $65 each. Send me an email to alan@toasty-top.com so we can discuss more.

    @little maggie - Bamboo is actually a grass, but it can be worked like wood. I have some bamboo HI's with stainless steel heater covers available if you are interested. @FUCKCOMBUSTION88 - Glad to hear all is well with your HI again. The word moisture generally makes one think of water. The...

    Discontinued MistVape Essence

    Very nice tapered tube work. Looks very good. It does take some time to get the square pieces round and make a perfect hole through it. Making the female joint can also be challenging. Does make a nice fit. I have been playing around with 18mm female wooden joints lately. Carnuba wax is derived...

    Sorry to hear about the beeswax issues. There is no permanent damage done. The heat will eventually turn the wax to carbon. There may be a hint of beeswax for a little while. Try a hair dryer to get the wood hot enough to melt the beeswax. It will soak farther into the wood that way. It is...

    Insta Heat (aka iHeat)

    Was reading in the Project thread the other day about the possibility of an all wood 510 sleeve when I thought why not try it with the iHeat since the wood doesn't get hot anyhow. I used a piece of apple wood in case there was some hot wood taste/smell. The wood length is 2.25" and the diameter...

    @Abysmal Vapor - You are welcome. Cork is an amazing material. Thanks for the info. I get my cork rings from Portugal. The hole in the middle is already the perfect size to hold the glass tube. I prefer to use natural cork so there are no other materials involved. I have used composite cork for...

    Insta Heat (aka iHeat)

    The heat up times are very close. I don't find much difference between them. Great results with either one. I even tried plugging a 12 volt battery pack into the base unit and it works just like if it were plugged into a wall adapter. Allows you to use it for quite a while without having to swap...

    Insta Heat (aka iHeat)

    @Crussell27 - Thanks so much. I have down on the list for one. Here is a photo of the heater section connected to a mod box for portable use. So nice to always know the battery status and have the ability to control the power level. The body and tube are made from osage orange wood.

    @ZC - Thanks for posting the photo. That is the first time I have turned that type of wood. It looks even better in person. Hope to get it to you soon. Thanks for the assistance @6079Smith. I have also mixed coconut oil with the beeswax to get a consistency like lip balm. It works great for...

    @vakedcow - I automatically put you back on the list after your last purchase. The wait time won't be so long. Thanks @Shit Snacks . You don't have that long to wait either. @Abysmal Vapor - Thanks for the kind words. It was a challenge to get all those connections and wires inside the base...

    Insta Heat (aka iHeat)

    I had the good fortune to work with Ryan at RBT on the Mi-log project which gave me access to his high surface area heaters in exchange for a voltage controller with digital display and cord set solution. A suitable voltage controller was found and modified to accept plugs from a cord set...

    The Toasty Top

    Thanks. The Toasty Top has gone through some changes over the years. It started out with a massive heat exchanger type of core and took around 45 minutes to reach vaporizing temperatures. After I discovered Heat Island Technology, the time to reach vaporizing temperature dropped to around 5...

    Glad you like your custom micro voltage controller. Was a bit more work, but it turned out will. Here is a photo of it. @jarr92 - I don't currently have any bent stems. May have to try and make one sometime.
