    The Lotus Vaporizer

    This is actually fascinating, my WPA screen got super messy after only a few sessions – and it’s not like I grind very fine or anything; I use an OMD Aroma-3, which is medium-to-coarse. I wonder what the difference is. Also, my screen loosened enough just from stirring the bowl that it popped...

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    There’s a mesh screen at the bottom of the WPA that pops out if you look at it wrong (which is what I and @morfraen were talking about, but apparently not what @simba was talking about). Apparently, there used to be both fine and coarse mesh screen options for the WPA, but with the re-release...

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    That’s exactly the issue I’m running into! I’m going to try swapping in one of the spare Stunner screens I have, since they appear to be the same size but a finer mesh.

    It’s a scheme to get us to buy more Vapmans, is what 2.0 is.

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    Potentially silly question: does anyone have dosing capsules that work with the Lotus? I see the recommendation to use Fury Edge 2 dosing capsules with a different WPA, but they look like they _should_ also fit the normal Lotus WPA, albeit a bit loosely. I'm loving mine so far, but cleaning the...

    Vaping minimalism (the opposite of VAS?)

    I currently have four vapes – Vapman, Dani, Stunner, and Lotus, in order of acquisition – and, honestly, now that I have the Lotus, I'm strongly considering getting rid of the Dani and Stunner, since the Lotus suits me great as a heavy hitter without the downsides of the "heat battery" design of...

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    This is exactly how I feel about it – other vapes have come close, but this feels like a pipe vape to me. I still want to try with an actual wood pipe, especially for a longer stem, but the j-hook does scratch the itch. The Lotus j-hook actually makes me want to read through The J-hook thread...

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    Received my Lotus on Wednesday, finally got the chance to use it last night, and this vape is phenomenal. I’m not sure whether I like this or the Vapman better, flavor-wise, but the Lotus is definitely a shockingly heavy hitter for how small it it, and the ritual of using it on the included...

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    If the pipe fits, you'll have to tell us all about it! I've actually been messaging with a pipe maker on Etsy to get my own made, he's down for it once I get my Lotus in-hand to measure the necessary dimensions (and will likely offer a pipe designed for 14mm WPAs as an option in his shop if it...

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    Good news: Got an email from VGoodiez that my Lotus will be shipping out via priority mail tomorrow! Overall a bit longer than direct shipment via UPS or DHL, but honestly not bad considering Vapman must’ve sent a bulk shipment of US BF Lotus bundles to VG who then had to process ‘em.

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    I feel the same way, and I'm fairly certain I had the same experience with the kotibe Vapman bundle last black friday. I mean, ~$13 really isn't that big a deal since I was willing to pay full price, but it's annoying that we're penalized for jumping right in on a special deal on a limited...

    The Lotus Vaporizer

    It’s more expensive on the Lotus site than on the Vapman site, for some reason (€145 vs €120 or thereabouts). I just asked about retroactively applying the 10% discount – figure it can’t hurt to ask!

    The Dani by Battery-free Ganz

    What's the standard O-ring size for the Dani v3 tip? I'm debating between 5.5mm ID x 1mm thick or 6mm x 1mm.

    Honestly, this is the main reason I'd personally avoid the dishwasher – I have hard enough water that my dishes sometimes come out with a residue from the minerals in the water, and I absolutely do not want to have to clean that shit off my grinder with an ISO soak + qtips after already running...

    Hey @OMD, if the PEEK bearings that you're having made turn out to be the ideal solution, do you think you'll be putting the bearings up on your shop for those of us who already own an Aroma-3 to order and swap in ourselves? I do have a generic PEEK bearing on order, but I'm guessing the...

    I ordered my grinder on March 21st, it shipped out on April 11th, then cleared US customs and got processed into USPS' system yesterday.

    Are PEEK bearings the kind of thing where there's one true supplier and anything else is a knockoff, or is it possible we could order a more affordable option, like this PEEK 608 bearing from aliexpress?

    I applaud your efforts to make this grinder create as close to zero metal dust as possible, but I'm personally totally unconcerned about the absolutely minuscule amount of metal dust created by the bearing sliding onto and off of the post – and it's worth noting that a ceramic bearing could even...
