High heater for me. I pack the bowl using the straw technique, which I find doesn’t over pack or pack too tightly. Usually a 5-6sec preheat and a semi fast (3x faster than Arizer) pull for about 10sec. Pretty much fully extracted. The Toad is pretty much my end all device at this point. Above...

So it’s been about a week. Using the Toad (#91) exclusively. Love this thing! Took a few bowls to really figure it out. Talking with Dan, I explained how I used my dynavap and he suggested the high heater and boy was he on point! Full extraction with the high oven in one tasty hit. Surprisingly...

Here she is. What a beaut!

Got mine yesterday - batch 7 #91 🫠 If I could figure out how to upload a pic I would. LoL!

Ok. Thought I may have missed a message but I’m on the same page as you. Waiting on #91and my VAS is acting up. LoL!

Curious if anyone from batch #7 receive their toad yet?

I grabbed 91. Was my first choice but I had to pass a few times previously, so I was probably at the top of the list.

Ok, got one yesterday. Deep cleaned the oven twice and ran 4 bowls and I can taste this “plastic” taste. Does no one else taste this??? I’ve got a solo 2 and an ArGo and as it stands it doesn’t even come close to either of those in taste. I’m not really impressed and may have to ask for a...

Model EP-TA12JWE and model EP—TA200. The TA200 one I just noticed is one of the dual 9V/5V so that’s my bad for not reading right or paying attention, but the first one should have worked and didn’t. The ikea one is 3A and works like a charm.

The Samsung quick charger was the culprit. I remembered having the IKEA Koppla one and within 10 minutes I knew the hotshot was receiving juice - was warm around the connection.

I’ve got an ArGo. Broke a f23king stem in it yesterday. Once this happens it’s shitsville. A tapered wooden dowel would have come in handy. LoL! I ended up breaking a bunch more of the glass and using a pick to grab one of the air path holes and managed to get it out. You could also use a paper...

I charged it over night, sat down to see how many clicks I can actually get and got 3 before it died. I did pm, like a rambling g idiot. LoL! I think I have it sorted. if you’re looking for the best option, the Koppla is cheap and well made.

does this sound right???

Can anyone check something for me? While your Hotshot is charging can you place your ear to the side and tell me if you hear anything?

You were the first I had seen do this. I borrowed this technique for when I’m in a hurry to blast a cap.

I use a dynacoil with an IH and I have gone well past the click (9 seconds to be exact).

I don’t trust CCell. I prefer AVD as they have certifications on their carts.
