Troy of 420vapezone mentioned this same thing about the IQ in his Miqro rundown on YouTube, but noted that the Miqro seems to not have these same a issues with how the herb chamber and airway has been redesigned to minimize the gaps in airways, but only prolonged use will tell how this fares as...
I bought mine second hand and semi-regularly clean it with a barbed pipe cleaner through the air pathways and the herb chamber (BTW - You can keep it cleaner by using Storz and Bickle Dosing Capsules. Absolutely recommended in my opinion. Easier packing/unloading, less mess, less screen...
If your torch keeps running when you have the flame turned up where you can use the brick and doesn't vaporize properly when you turn it down, I strongly recommend getting a different lighter. The difference between $3 and $10 is huge and I find I get better hits with my Scorch Torch than I did...
One of the things that took me a while to realize is that if you're using the same pack two nights in a row then you're going to have to apply more heat than you did the first night. Your technique is probably fine for fresh green but once it gets ABV-y you've gotta give it more heat to release...
This was my experience with Eagle lighters and Zico. I finally ponied up $10 for a lighter (Scorch Torch) and have been happier for it since. Sometimes lighters just die due to the piezo being out of line but I've not been able to realign mine with success. Otherwise for something that gets used...
I've got a triple flame lighter that I call The Extractor. I like my single flame for nice lower to medium temp hits, but if I am gonna everything out of a load that's already partially spent, this is what I go to when I want to make sure that that load is *done*, or if I just want a super fast...
I really like using these brushpicks. They have a poker end and a brush end which helps with both stirring and cleaning. The brush end fits nicely in the toothpick holder, providing just a little resistance to it falling out without making it difficult to pull out when you need to stir or clean...
From your video it looks like you're getting mighty hits, so if you're happy with that then don't worry about changing your technique, but I've got a few tips from my experience so far. You could stand to lower your flame strength a bit and then bring it closer to the intake hole. You can then...
Thanks! I did the screen mod and have an extra screen in the chamber and find I really like how much cleaner it keeps everything. This thing really pumps out good vapor.
I'm sorry you've had such a rough run with these. You're right that they're ginger little things, but if you deal with them carefully (i.e. don't push the lids down hard, try not to angle them so they're off-canter when placing the lid) I find it's not too difficult to get the lids on and off. A...
Just got a CFX and man oh man on man can this thing do quite a bit. I'm having fun experimenting with temperatures but so far I think I like low temp hits (315-330 F) the most. They're tasty and energizing. I totally agree with this
It's just too long and powerful. 2/3 of the vibration with...
I can vouch for these as well. I moved away from them for a bit as a bit of an A/B test and the bowl got significantly messier than a couple weeks of using them. The loading process is a bit timely but the lack of maintenance for the following week or so is worth it. I've never really had a...
Hi all! Long time reader, first time poster here. I've had my Junior (named "Brick Tracy") for about 2 and a half months now and it very quickly became a daily driver for me. It's been so much fun to unravel all of its secrets. Probably the most difficult part has been finding a consistent...
