    Completely agree with all except: Many _tobacco_ vapes use the term. My first thought was of the original Ploom, but from the Pax web page at http://www.ploom.com/pax we still see the title description as: "the premium loose leaf vaporizer" So as much as I love my TET/TV gear, they didn't...

    Discontinued Omicron Vaporizer for oils

    You should have asked around. My friends and I (plus plenty of other people) had more than enough gear to share. Fun trip. -NDA

    If I'm reading correctly, I see "Approved For Use ..." lists the Minicron(?), O-Phos and Omicron-lite; How do those handles work with the CORE? (For anyone else - the green under yellow under white text in the photo - And yes, the rest of the text is mostly legible also.) -NDA

    Could we have a show of hands? Who has a Herc SR-71 and has NOT fried a top? Was it old, very old (i.e. no serial number) or new (with timeout)? Who has a SR-71 and has fried at least one top? Do we have more people with gear going up in puffs of smoke or do we have more vapor going through...

    Actually thermal noise is important, but the "Kelvin" connection is why the Brits call the circuit a Thomson Bridge: Lord Kelvin invented the circuit (specifically to measure low resistance values) BEFORE he was made a "Lord". And yes, I do understand what you seem to be saying (and you are...

    The "Kelvin Clips" are used to form a Kelvin bridge - a circuit where a voltage differential exists across a wire which doesn't carry (very much - they can't be perfect) current. Named for Lord Kelvin of absolute zero fame. Should be just a note or not covered at all in most intro electrical...

    It might be very embarrassing to be "held reliable" - I may just stick with the undependable vendors - more surprises (and excitement?) that way. G, It has been asked but not answered: Do the old tanks for the Herc fit into the V2/SR-71 with all or any of the "washer fixes", "new SS top", the...

    Discontinued ThermoVape Revolution for concentrates

    If it were to happen soon, I could clear a good chunk of my Christmas list, but I really doubt i would/could happen - TV/TET doesn't possess the tools to make new bodies anymore (IIRC it was leased equipment that is now gone). -NDA

    Discontinued Omicron Vaporizer for oils

    It may be a cheap meter, but this sounds exactly like difficulties placing and/or holding the probes in contact with the correct points. There was a good reason both OF and I explained why and how we place the probes so they don't slip and slide too much. A third trick - good for fat-fingered...

    :cry: Unfortunately, this would seem to be the first report of the blown heads G told us were expected with the SR-71's :( -NDA

    Discontinued Omicron Vaporizer for oils

    Put one lead on the center conductor at the threaded bottom. The other may go nearly anywhere, but I find the easiest way to hold the cart and probes is to place the second probe on/in the top of the internal flue tube (I "poke" the tip in and it doesn't slip and slide as much as trying to make...

    I've also noticed that this industry is overwhelmed by futile ideas. Maybe we can work on developing the fertile ones instead. -NDA

    Discontinued Omicron Vaporizer for oils

    510 drip tips are the correct diameter, but many (most?) are too long at the bottom under the shoulder. I have a bunch of ones I ground down (some by hand with a file, some on a Dremel) which work fine. Also, D9 sells Delrin (vs. metal or glass) 510 drip tips which are already the correct (re...

    previous words: http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/omicron-vaporizer-for-oils.4301/page-320#post-247657 Though it seems the newest TV supply, i.e. CERA, is slightly more fragile (I still expect I'll _have_ to get one, soon if the thread adapters take very much longer). -NDA

    I believe with a little effort you can find that Chris Knight solved this problem back in 1985: Use excited bromide (sic) in a frozen argon matrix. If nothing else it can make popcorn. -NDA

    At the least, 3 - one to use, another while the dirty one is being cleaned (or just procrastinating), plus a spare in case anything breaks. -NDA

    Same thing from 5 and 1/2 months ago - purple light: http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/omicron-vaporizer-for-oils.4301/page-378#post-299863 Works fine though :) -NDA

    Blue/Violet jars are pretty, but if anyone believes that they are "good" or even "might" improve anything, I have some cardboard pyramids that you can use to keep your razor blades sharp for years (magic comes in many forms). And they're cheap too, -NDA P.S. The general rule for any...

    Geez guys, Regarding the Nibbler-X and cooling, it seems everybody here is part correct and yet missing an important point. OF is right that glass is a good insulator and I'd bet with him in guessing that the temperature of the cartridge actually increases somewhat rather than running...

    $7500 for equipment: http://www.edenlabs.org/home_light_commercial.html -NDA EDIT: Sorry, the newer less expensive stuff isn't for CO2. The price is still ~$20K for CO2 gear (i.e. high pressure) from the same company: http://www.edenlabs.org/supercritical_extraction.html
