    Manufacturers and online retailers: have you thought of accepting Bitcoin?

    Selling stuff online is messy enough, with the difficulties with credit cards, Paypal and other traditional methods. But it seems to me that Bitcoin would be a very attractive option for online vape sales in particular. Indeed, Canadian retailer Vapetropolis is already accepting Bitcoin as a...

    Vaporizer comparison table - can you help complete it, and nitpick what's already there?

    I've been piecing together this table (with some assistance from members of another forum), listing notable vape brands, both portable and plug-in, with a bunch of columns detailing their specs. But I believe it needs to be run past FC for a truly comprehensive assessment (as well as to spare me...

    If the fattest-hitting vape you've used was rated 10/10, how would other vapes you've used rate ?

    I'm wondering how different vapes compare with each other with regard to their vapour production. Since most of us have only used a fraction of the notable brands, I figured it would be most effective to use whatever vape has been the heaviest-hitting one that each of us has used as a yardstick...

    Big discussion on Reddit re danger of ceramic heating elements in vapes.

    From a very busy thread, with 400+ comments and 1200+ votes, at the time of writing: http://www.reddit.com/r/trees/comments/18nk52/why_i_believe_vaporizing_can_be_more_dangerous/ Here's the original post, by 'Greenwithenergy': I've owned every major brand vape you can think off. Years of...

    Comparison of different vape brands according to search frequency - Google Trends.

    Google Trends is an interesting feature that allows you to see graphs showing how often particular terms are searched for over time. Absolute figures aren't provided - rather, values are expressed as a percentage of the maximum. But up to five terms (or combinations of terms) can be compared...

    Vaporiser design element idea: cool air inlet mechanism.

    A thought came to me about what could be a fairly easy method of turning the design of a fixed temperature convection vape into a variable temperature one, without having to adjust the power to the element. This would be to have some way of introducing cool air into the hot airstream between the...

    Pre-drying bud with silica desiccant. Decarboxylating?

    I bought a bunch of silica sachets off Ebay for a few dollars to experiment with, and so I tried adding 3 or 4 to a pill bottle with a couple of nugs. When I checked them a few hours later they were very crispy. And the herb vapes very well like this. (You 'recharge' the desiccant by baking it...

    Smoking vs Vaporizing: An Infographic. Can we improve on it?

    This infographic was posted on Reddit, and indeed, originally found on Forbes.com (under the article): And while there's a lot of good information on there presented nicely, there's a lot of inaccurate info too. In particular, that 'top 10 vaporizers' panel looks not only several years out-of...

    Cannabis-only smokers who switched to vaping?

    There are a lot of people out there who believe that smoking herb is virtually (if not completely) harmless, and that it is only when tobacco is smoked too that it becomes dangerous. So I'm wondering about the experiences of those of us who've switched from cannabis-only smoking to cannabis-only...

    The More-Or-Less Off-Topic Thread.

    Ok, let's try an experiment: This thread has no topic except what is currently being discussed. Which means anything that has been spoken of in at least one of the previous 3 posts. You can refer to anything from earlier posts too, just as long as it's also relevant to one of the most recent...

    Drop in membership?

    Did FC just lose some members? How did that happen? In this thread: http://www.fuckcombustion.com/threads/fc-moores-law.5199/ which is a couple of weeks old, I noted that there were 7739 members at the time. Then a couple of days ago I checked and it was around 7850. I wanted to see how...

    FC Moore's Law.

    Out of curiosity, I've been keeping notes on the FC member/thread/post count shown at the bottom of the home page. Mind you I've only been recording once every couple of weeks to a month, as the change isn't very interesting over short periods of time. But I've been doing this for just over...

    Soy lecithin as a potentiator.

    I felt that this substance deserves its own thread, as I've been using it in my canna-oil cooking for the last couple of months, and I can't recommend it highly enough. It's a natural emusifier, used as a food additive in stuff like chocolate (to make it more chocolatey) and in some...

    Question for the chemists re decarboxylation in air vs in oil/fat.

    I've read a couple of posts recently (which I can find at the moment) suggesting that decarboxylation of weed doesn't work properly when the weed is in hot fat or oil, and that it should be pre-decarbed in air (ie in an oven or a vape). I've cooked weed many times in oil, but a few days ago I...
