I think S&B are a serious engineering company that is doing its best to provide both a product that has excellent functionality and a low failure rate.
I think most of us agree that they have achieved the first.
The second is very difficult to actually quantify without S&B's sales data and...
I have just received my Crafty, I hope I will fall into the category of people who have no problems!
First impressions are good. Great vapour, wonderful flavour and very easy to use.
I know that reliability issues are a pain but any device can give problems.
I also own a MinVap which is an...
You will always get some discoloration. You can use a q tip with alcohol or soak some kitchen paper in alcolhol (not dripping) and leave it in for a few minutes.
If one of the holes is blocked you can use a pin to clean it up.
I don't want to sound like a fanboy but since I have started using gear from w9tech all my old pens have stayed in the drawer. My main portable oil device is the Hercules SR74 on a Persei running at 7.4 volt. I also use the AC with doughnuts when I want to try out different oils, I run this at...
Have to agree here . I love the doughnuts in my Alfa Centuri especially now they are providing replacement elements. This makes them very easy to rebuild.
I do tend to tilt it up for my last draw to vape any of the concentrate that has got passed the heating element.
I tried different browsers and different devices but to no avail. I have had this issue before and then it was an issue with the service they use for the payments.

I just tried placing an order and it seems an old problem has come back. I live in the Netherlands and the site says I cannot place an order. The message is "Unfortunately one or more items in your cart can't be shipped to your location. Please choose a different delivery address."...
Thanks. I was using a wooden skewer but I was twisting the wire around it which is not good so its a great tip to turn the skewer and not the wire. I will give it a try.
If you have the time a video would be great!. I a worried I will run out of the gold clamps since you only get 10 per rebuild...
Has anyone been able to use the rebuild kit to repair a cartridge?
My last Kiss cartridge only lasted one day while the previous one lasted for months.
I have done rebuilds before for other carts but I have never tried to build one before with a fixed wick in the middle and use Ti wire. It...
I do agree the the first few hits are very flavorful. I would even go as far as to say it gives the best flavour I have ever experienced with concentrates from any device. After the first few hits I still find the flavour to be very good, at least on par with any of my other devices. It is less...
Bubble hash in the best case is pure trichomes pressed together. When I make bubble I use the ice water method and a series of (bubble) bags which filter out all the non trichome matter. This gives a very high quality hash with very little plant matter. The only down side I see to bubble is how...
I know what you mean but I think this is an important part of learning to use the Herc. I used to check it continuously but now I can go for days just topping it up from time to time.
Another vote for the Herc.
I have had (and have) pretty much every type of oil vape and I now user the Herc SR74x as my goto vape. There is a learning curve (as Roth has mentioned) but i believe it gives the best results especially on the ability to hold the flavour. There is a thread with lots...
So I did a run. Using sand instead of a water bath has a couple of advantages. It works as a great temperature buffer since the skillet I use does not hold a very constant temperature and it ensures that no water vapour enters the equation.
I kept the temperature around 90F and the difference...
Any plans to make the core part (the bit the goes into the Persei) available separately?
I don't really need a second power supply but my wife and myself do have our "own" Persei and it would be great to just grab the power cable and plug in.
I have my SR74x running on the core set to 7.4V.
I also do not overfill. I like to be able to see a sheen on top of the coil.
I generally give the button a 5 second press to get it warmed up. I hold the Persei vertically as much as possible. I have noticed a more consistent hit if I do this. If...
Looks like a typo. I have the kit and you get an SR 74 White Rod 7.4V.
The description on the site for the replacement rods is clear. SR74 rods are also for SR74x:
SR71 White Rod = 7.4V, 40 watts
SR71 Black Rod = 3.7V, 16 watts
SR74 White Rod = 7.4V, 23 watts
SR74 Black Rod = 3.7V, 16 watts...
