It's just a Dynavap BB3 stem used as a WPA. Would be too hot native. But the set up I'm using cools the vapour very nicely on half bowl. For full bowl I prefer using one of the Tempest stems.
Tempest works with any Dynavap stem. So there are tonnes of WPAs on the market. I like the BB3/6/9...
I have a system. If it's day time and I know I will hit the Tempest again, I reload, then place it in the wand ready. If I intend to leave it empty, I place it on the Reload magnet. So I can tell at a glance if I filled it or not.
My intention is to have a head set half bowl, Boro balls, on a...
Hello everyone. Been travelling. Back home with the Tempest, after not using for almost a month, and it's blasted me to space with a single half bowl. Going to read back through the thread and see what I missed.
I prefer taking a single big hit with the half bowl. The amount is a perfect big...
The heat retention/capacity is the whole point isn't it. Needing 50% less energy for reheats is a gigantic advantage. Not sure why anyone would complain of cool down time. It's not a Dynavap. It's filled with Zirc balls.
Even for those with a dysfunctioning VI, just puff on it while it's...
Since Dynavaps are so ubiquitous, they are easy to find. Just Google "Dynavap WPA". You can get all in ones (10mm/14mm/18mm) if you like. I personally like using the glass BB3 stem as a WPA.
If you try this try slowing the draw a little. Seems to maximise extraction. You can get killer clouds...
If you are tired experimenting with settings for now, try just sticking the tip on a WPA, half bowl setting. Incredible potency. I prefer a small dry bubbler. You get a perfect thick, tasty lungful. Outrageous efficiency. Best I've experienced. Only other experience that came close was multiple...
The room to room portability is great for me. I use it in my office, living room, and in the bath. Tempest, wand, Reload is a serious set up considering the portability.
My daily dose used to be around 0.5g. Lately with Tempest at half bowl setting I'm using half that, and feel just as medicated. The potency can really catch you by surprise when you get it just right.
Yeah I sold my B0 a month after having the Tempest. Haven't had a single moment of regret.
Depends of the user though. I already disliked several things about desktop ball vapes.
I always thought I would find my favourite setting, then just leave it. But what has actually happened is I've developed an instinctive understanding of how to set it depending on what I want/need at the time.
I'm always swapping stems, switching to glass pieces, J-hook, going from full bowl...
It replaced my B0. I never looked back. I never liked the huge footprint of a desktop ball vape. Or the large glass pieces and heat up time etc.
The cooling settings of the stem ensure that it is never too hot. You have too much leeway to set it how you want. Most users are not using the...
If I take it hiking I pack a full bowl, and do multiple hits with stirring. Saves me having to empty/refill bowl. But in the house I just want to one shot smaller bowls. I know I'm wasting some of the material by not hitting twice, but it's really not that much. Besides, I'm blasted, so it...
Yeah I've mostly always stirred, re-tamped then hit again. But I've stopped bothering. Just not worth it. The actives are gone.
I'm only putting 0.15-0.2g. So I'm aiming to extract in a single hit. And after testing the AVB in other vapes, it seems to be working. Regardless of having some...
Yeah the price point for the wood/glass stems is great. I honestly feel Tempest lovers ought to pick up one of each at some point, as they each confer different advantages.
I've been back on the glass stem this last week. Doing low temp hits only. Rehabilitation for my lungs after COVID. I...
I would find a 100% SIC experiment interesting. Especially for hash, where the potential extra heat cycle length could be utilized. For flower I imagine it's overkill, but I would be very interested to hear otherwise
I've noticed with Nova that colour does not always reflect extraction. I often get a mesmerising, thick, potent hit that rocks me. I look in the herb chamber, and most is brown, some yellow. Not uniform. However second hits don't give much at all. I've even tried extracting the AVB in other...
