Sounds like you are using the "erb" as an excuse to continue smoking without feeling guilty of actually smoking. I am the same and every time it led me back to cigs so i bought a vape and decided that was all i was going to use and every now and again i have an urge to bring out my bong just to...
Fresh baked , for the screen mods all you really need is a bigger diameter screen than the wand. If you get some 20mm screens make a basket and push that in the wand to your desired depth .
Another tip i can offer to fellow ssv novices , is do not watch something funny whilst using your vape. Had repeated accidents last night and woke up this morning to a sooty hc and an element covered in goo...
Why dont you guys having trouble with screens fitting just by 20mm screens and cut it down to fit? All the wands are slightly different diameters anyway ,my friends fits snugly , rather too much on the tight side and a couple of mine rattle so i just bought some 20 mm screens and cut with...
Best thing i can suggest burken is to spend your time reading the whole of this thread , it will answer all the questions you have and all the ones you have not considered yet , plus when you get it experiment and give it time as there are a million factors which effect its performance .
The biggest problem for me with the oil rig is I've never owned an oil rig and I overmedicated a bit when I first started experimenting with it. "quote" . :)
Cheers , no rush just when ya get round to it , but will be good to hear as edibles put me to sleep instantly and i did not consider making hash so i m intrigued.
I told him to pack up the wand because then whatever heat or draw speed he uses he will feel the ssv power then be able to adjust accordingly. I did not say this is optimal , i said this is what i did when i was struggling with it. I think it is much easier to learn to use it when you take it...
What i have found with the ssv is that there is so many variables eg every glass part is a completely different size , that you can only take other peoples advice with temps etc as a guide only . Experiment and just find the ranges you like and do not worry what other people use .
lol. OK what i did when i very first got it and was struggling to use it was fill a really big fat bowl , loads bigger than i normally would , put it on twelve o clock like advised and coughed my guts up when i got a big suprise about how awesome this unit actually is and then i started being...
Hey breathemetal all those questions have already been answered in detail in this thread , have a look from page one and you will become an expert on the ssv as well as getting an urge to trick out your unit
Experimenting is the best bet. I read up thoroughly on the ssv before buying but still posted asking questions in a panic when it did not work as expected , but the guys on this forum are extremely nice and patient :)
I went through what you are now and am pretty certain it is the different sizes that the wands come in as glass blowing is not precision engineering so they have big differences in each wand. If you have a shorter bowl it will be nearer the heating element so will use a lower temp for the same...
Dont you guys find that if you push your hc all the way down as far as it will go you lose mobility of the wand when in use? I think the difference in the temps people use are mainly due to the different sizes of the wands .When i set my friends ssv up i used the temp i do and choked almost on...
Thats what i do with my screen tweak. I cant quite believe the difference in sizes with the wands . I bought three wands with my recently purchased ssv and they all vary in size by upto an inch and my friends ssv which i picked up for him has a wand half an inch shorter than my smallest one...
