    The HI

    Glad that it arrived safely and you like how it looks. As @dimildarko said, the silicone ring is to cover the exposed part of the metal power socket. It is better not to contact the herb with the end of the glass heater cover, but there is a screen in the end to prevent any herb from falling...

    The HI

    I use a heat gun to get the wood warm enough to melt the beeswax, but a hair dryer will also get the wood warm enough. It starts to melt at about 145F.

    @little maggie - I don't have a price for the Insta Heat yet. I expect it to be slightly higher than the cost for a HI. It will depend on the cost for the heater assemblies. Getting a few other details ironed out too. I have thought about making a portable. It is always a possibility. Designing...

    The HI

    @dimildarko - Thanks for posting the photos. Glad everything arrived safely and you are happy. I run each HI for about 12 hours before declaring them operational. There should just be a light scent of warm beeswax and a slight scent of the wood depending upon the type. Happy roasting.

    The HI

    @panasonic - Both lengths work equally well. The longer HI will be a little cooler to the touch on the bottom. @FUCKCOMBUSTION88 - The highly figured walnut wood that I have is about 50 years old, so it is very dry. It really likes to soak up the beeswax. I have applied beeswax beads to the...

    The HI

    The wood body is made from afzelia burl. Great to turn. Glad to hear it arrived safely. I would give the HI a minute or so to heat from 11.5 to 12.0. If you can draw fast enough through the tube, the voltage can be quite a bit higher. When the air flow is not good, the taste can get bad too...

    What do you do with your ABV when out of the house?

    I use the same container that I use when in the house. It is a repurposed medicine container that has a sewing needle hot glued to the cap. The needle works great for picking the bowl clean and folds safely into the container when the cap is closed.

    @3rdtimetrying - Thanks for posting the photo. Glad it arrived safely and you are getting the hang of it. Hope you are able to obtain a suitable voltage controller. So nice to know the voltage at all times. @little maggie - Here is a photo of the different basket screens I make. LtR 12mm for...

    Help me find a heater for my log

    I once made a special SS heater cover for a client that wanted to use an e-nano ceramic heater in a Heat Island wood body. He said the unit had the best properties from the Heat Island and the e-nano. A real frankenvape. @jardri - I recommend using a small uninsulated butt splice to connect the...

    Dynavap VapCap

    That is very cool to know that VC tips fit into HI/UD tubes/stems with the 5/16" SS tips.

    @RastaBuddhaTao - Thank you for the kind words. Glad you like how the unit turned out. I have been using it more than any vaporizer available to me. Maybe it is the Venturi effect of the inlet air going through a smaller orifice so that it can expand and provide a uniform air flow through the...

    The HI

    @FUCKCOMBUSTION88 - Glad to hear you are happy with your purchase. I am also so happy about discovering vaporizers. It is a much cleaner way to medicate. The flavor can really be enjoyed. I have been using a wooden tube quite a bit lately. The hole is large enough that I can use the blade of a...

    @KeroZen - I believe that the limits of the voltage converter are being pushed with the heater. It was a lucky coincidence that the voltage controller has just enough capacity, but not too much to cause damage. It only requires some minor modifications. Having replaceable components does make it...

    @KeroZen - Thanks so much for the time to respond with your concerns. The manufacturers of the voltage controller must have anticipated that the output leads would get shorted, so they designed it so that it wouldn’t fail. The voltage display just goes to zero with a hard short. No harm done and...

    Thanks @P.A.M. , @Lookatmeglow , @Shit Snacks , @Crussell27 The heating seems to be pretty much the same as the Milaana. The two screen method helps distribute the heat for more even roasting. I don't generally find it necessary to stir. Longer 18mm male glass fittings will fit into it since...

    @RastaBuddhaTao - Thanks again for the opportunity to work with you on this project. Your high surface area heater technology seems to be the future for on-demand convection vaporizers. I don't have a Mi-Log specific waiting list. My plan is to offer it as an option to those that are on my HI...

    Other names for vapor/vaping

    I like to refer to it as "roasting" rather than vaporizing since the vapor is produced from roasting the herb. "Getting Roasted" might be a way to refer to medicating.

    Discontinued MistVape Touch

    The new screens look good Dave. The press is a great way to make them. Glad you are enjoying the two screen method. Here is my Touch stem with a silicone sleeve on the mouthpiece end which allows it to fit snugly into the 5/8" hole in the wood. My 8.5mm basket screens fit nicely into the...

    The HI

    The voltage controller will be slightly warm to the touch when operating. Push the left button until a "1" is displayed. If it displays "off", push the right button to turn it back on. Adjust the knob until you get to your desired voltage. Then push and hold the left button for more than 2...
