@rotax - Thanks for posting the photos and review. Glad you found the silicone ring to cover the metal power socket. Here is a photo of the how it looks when installed.
The right angle plug on the power cord reduces the chance of a twist in the cord knocking the HI over. The shorter Mini...
@hoptimum - I have added quite a few roasting tube options since the last website update. Still need to get it updated. Here are two of my latest 14mm GonG tubes. The longer tube is 5-1/4" long with an adjustable position screen for $11. The shorter tube is 2-3/4" long with an adjustable...
@Zadner - Glad to hear it arrived safely. Happy roasting.
@hoyo77 - Thanks for posting the photos the roasting tube discussion.
@Nugg - Very nice photos. Thanks so much.
I get requests occasionally to provide a roasting tube stop on the outside of the Heat Island stainless steel heater cover...
Here is an update to my 18mm glass roasting tube configuration. I replaced the flat second screen with one that is shaped to fit inside of the 18mm glass fitting similar to how most vaporizers with 18mm male glass ends have. The screen now stays with the 18mm male part like using an EQ cap but...
@Nugg - Thanks for posting the photos. Sorry again for the long wait.
@little maggie - I will be happy to turn whatever shape you like.
@Melting Pot - There really are just the two heater cover styles now. Stainless steel and glass. I have stopped making the old style Toasty Top cores...
@lazylathe - Glad you are enjoying your HI. Low voltage DC power makes it so versatile. A battery pack lets you take it almost anywhere. Thanks for posting photos.
@Likes2vape - Will be happy to keep the wood until I get to your name on the list. I recommend the stainless steel heater cover for...
@VoltageKeeper - Look forward to showing you one sometime.
@SSVUN~YAH - Glad to see the tubes arrived safely. Hope they are working well for you.
@Chicken Charlie - Nice to hear you are enjoying the Slide-a-Bowl tube. Thanks for providing the input so we can make roasting tubes that work...
Please send me an email to alan@toasty-top.com so we can discuss a HI order.
@EveryDayAmnesiac - Thanks again for waiting. The HI is a great medication delivery system.
The configuration prevents spillage during one hand use by capturing the material between two screens and allows you to stir with a quick puff of air to push the material back away from the second screen. This also improves the air flow for the next hit. The roasting temp can be adjusted by...
@Bvapst - Will get you a new tube one way or another.
@Chicken Charlie - Thanks for being a JedHI member and suggesting the tube configuration. I have been using it almost exclusively now. Have found I like using it better with the nipple end of the 10mm glass tube sticking into the 13mm glass...
Someone asked if I could make a wine cork tube style (double screens) roasting tube with the ability to vary the bowl size. Here is my response to the question. The Slide-a-Bowl roasting tube.
It is similar in construction to my 2-piece glass roasting tube but has the ability to capture the...
Have been busy working on a variety of different projects lately. Here is an old square pine Aromazap that has been retrofit with a new style Heat Island heater cover. The inside hole was enlarged to remove the charred wood and a new wooden support disc was installed to hold the new SS heater...
@abhs - Sorry to hear about your HI. Seems that the tiny copper strands within the cable tend to break the more that the cable is bent. The most stress always occurs at the power plug to cable connection. Probably a new power supply is in order. I am now providing an extension cord with a power...
I recommend using the WCT w/o the end cork/glass tube for the glass heater cover HI's. It will allow the heater cover to get closer to the roasting material for higher roasting temperatures. You should also get good results using the WCT w/ the end cork/glass tube with higher voltages from the...
I will need to make multiple units to make it an economical project. I may also just make some protective cages that can be used for multiple e-nail brands. Always something on the drawing board.
@panasonic - Looking forward to refurbishing a PD or two. Have been practicing with some old...
@exit - Thanks so much. Good to know things are going well.
@u bwade wunner - We are staying very Toasty. Lots of testing to be done.
@Rrose Selavy - Sorry to hear about the mishap. There should be no permanent damage. Any moisture that got into the wood will soon be heated away. The wood has...
@Higher-than-a-pterodactyl - Glad to hear you are enjoying the new stem assembly. That is the one I use most often now. I enjoy the feel of the cork, but silicone will also work. Have also made one from wood. Will try to get a photo or two to post.
@KidFated. - Sorry again for the long wait...
@Chicken Charlie - You are welcome. Good to hear your consumption has been reduced.
Have just assembled another new roasting tube configuration with efficiency in mind. I found that the screens that I make for the glass and ss heater covers can be positioned inside of the 10mm glass mouthpiece...
