i think so 12mm od glass is all that it requires. if bb9 works on potv 1 and lobo, it should work fineCan anyone tell me if a BB9 will fit in the AE? Looking into stem options when not using it with the WPA.
Already thinking about this and the unit only ships tomorrow. VAS hadn't flared up for a while but alas.... here I am again
I don't own any POTV vapes so I can't test that.
does those arizer stem have 4 or 5 hole glass screens built in? fucking up airflow a bit?
Most of them do, yes... unfortunately... but there are stem options with regular mesh screens (often called hi-flow stems) and they're great. What you can do if you're stuck without a hi-flow stem is to place a regular mesh screen on top of the glass screen to keep the holes from getting clogged. This actually works really well and will make sure your glass screen never clogs.
DV Spikey stem fits (I'm using a 110mm Smok6 one) nicely. I believe it's 8mm wide.
Oh, I think 8mm is the inner diameter measurement.... I'm looking for the OD one but thanks!
11mm with my online ruler ;-{)====
Yep! Thanks. It was a little loose in the S3 which is expecting 12mm. Makes sense.
I might be more anxious than @TigoleBitties! I am sending in my Solo 3 today for warranty repair and relying on my Venty. The VAS is hitting hard.how long until the AE arrives??
in us it's unknown unless they are already here and unloaded from the docks.how long until the AE arrives??
I think it's only shipping out today bc I had to wait for the glass capsules to arrive. Shipping from Canada so that helps. Will probably only land next week Monday. *Sigh*how long until the AE arrives??
Damn, what happened?
The left / right buttons are getting a little too flakey.
I know that feeling well! Did you get it from a vendor here or does YLLVape ship from Canada?I think it's only shipping out today bc I had to wait for the glass capsules to arrive. Shipping from Canada so that helps. Will probably only land next week Monday. *Sigh*
Got it from Soothing Vapours. Nice shop, and it's Canadian. Good prices too!
Oh! I'd seen the name before but mistakenly thought they were in the US. Thanks! Good prices indeed!
I'll let you know soon! Coming this Wednesday according to the latest tracking.
Aaaraugh! I thought it was coming today. And Soothing Vapours' site says "Annual internal audit in progress. No shipping until 18 Oct 2024. Sorry!"I'll let you know soon! Coming this Wednesday according to the latest tracking.
Yeah I was guessing it might be Monday but no....
Oh damn... that sucks. At least mine was shipped before that declaration.

Hey! Christmas came early and it got delivered today
Charging it up now. You get so much stuff with this guy it's obscene. I don't notice much of any smell from the unit or the case. That might change when I turn it on though. After charging it's some burnoffs and then we'll see. I may not have time for impressions until later tonight.
That side bubbler is the tits! So cute.
Thanks! Will give it a go later tonight after badmintonYES!!!! Cant wait to hear how it works, congratz!!
you need cooling 4 to 6 mm cooling balls or water in the bubblier. use balls in stems with the ball-stem holders in place. med grind is best no pack. if level 1 gets you, you are even more heat sensitive than me. use of water might help. cooling balls and gems are great. if your herb is heavy on terps, you are going to cough at any heat level. these are just my opinions not facts.Hey all. So I passed out and fell asleep last night during testing
I still have more to do but here's my initial impressions...
-Quality of materials and the unit looks great.
-I did notice normal burnoff smells and did 3 burnoffs before using.
-Started with a full bowl coarse ground (no capsules) on level 2 with the side bubbler dry.
-Very very flavorful with plenty of terps coming through but I found it too hot even on level 2. Was a new strain so couldn't be sure if it was the terp blast but I had moments that were very irritating on the throat. Final roast was uniform and light caramel so confused about the power level.
- Tried a new bowl starting at level 1 and also moved to the WPA with a dry sherlock for more cooling - better - but I still feel like I'd like to start at even lower temps even though level 1 is 356F. Feeling dumb that I didn't fork out for the programming cable.
Managed to try another bowl with torn nuggets instead of coarse ground to compensate for the heat and it was flavorful but not much vapor. I'm seeing differences here with respect to the S3 as the Angus is really pure convection so not much assistance from conduction when dealing with torn nuggets.
I think the unit has promise but I need to dial it in more. Will try using the capsules and need to think on getting the programming cable.
So I tried another bowl today with a capsule on level 1 and this was much much better. I suspected the glass might help to tame the initial heat and blunt the terp blast a little and it did. Very very similar taste profile to the S3 when used this way although there are subtle differences due to the greater amount convection in the mix. Vapor production is great and the terps are very pronounced which I love.
