It's party time @ataxian just hit #1200 pages. That's a lot of Solo info over the last 3 yrs.
Went to mmj Farmers Market spreading the good word about vaporizing. A women wanted me to give her the name of the vape that I used. I told her that I would suggest she go with a Solo. I said she would have an even better appreciation of our fav herb. Suggested to check out Puffitup.
In honor of our fav vape and 1200 pages,lets all chime in about what we have in our Solos this evening.
I picked up something called PermaFrost and it's not the same as The Frost. The taste is similar. It's suppose to help with anxiety and pain. The flavor is exquisite in my Solo.

Had to send my Solo back after the battery crapped out on me (and secondarily two chipped bottom edges around the screws). Cost me $10 for shipping, but I got a brand new unit with a brand new charger. Time for round two.

Permafrost is a great PNW staple flavor! Tremendous for pain relief!
I love GSC in all of its various found forms! Also great for pain relief, but usually turns me from a participant to audience
My personal favorite is Ken Estes' (from Cali!) take with the Phantom GSC which is crossed with GDP for more THC from the TLC from the MMJ guys in the PNW.
Right now its a bit of that Headband.. One of my favs, but my real fav is so old school it's really pre-school. That classic Albert Walker reminds me of summer, Alpine Valley, and general misadventures in youth. Not sure it was the same, but it's got the same or similar... essence... vibe... It's what we were lucky to see more than a few special times a year
Still not too common, but great when finished right!
Other great flavors come and go, but there are a few veritable workhorses I like to keep in the stable because I know them as they know me. I keep an open mind and try to keep a couple of stalls clear for the occasional horse of a different color

I will get a zip of this batch!
Have you or anyone else had DUTCH CRUNCH?
Jack Herer x DUTCH TREAT
Very powerful (the colas are bigger than a body builder's arm's)!
When you use the name Ken Estes? Are you referring to GDP?

Yay 1200! 
Wife's birthday. Overnight trip to cute little artsy town of Bisbee Arizona. Double dream when we checked into the hotel and, for the first time, using the SOLO in a taco bell cup with the stealth stem. No one even seemed to notice and by the time we got to our fancy dinner rez we were seriously baked. A little GDP and who knows.
Good night. Her best birthday ever she said.

No, sir, yes, sir
Jack Herer is serious medicine, and Dutch Treat is very aptly named, sweet like candy and gets your fingers as sticky. I have not seen the cross of these two, but I can imagine tasting something like a maple bar? Definitely sounds interesting and I will be on the look out!
Ken's GDP was a staple for a long time and is always welcome for return visits! He's helped some local folks and from what I hear is a real stand-up guy. Never met him or claim to know him, but I respect his work, at least the local expressions of it that I have come across
That calls for the last of some tasty SinMint that mixes the GSC forum cut with one of SCS's lines, a specific pheno called "Blueberry Pie". A few turns of the last nuglet in the medium 2 piece SCS and just a couple of stems for the Solo, but enough time to reflect.
Times have certainly become interesting, but I think the people are moving ever so slowly towards enlightening themselves. I try to tune out the media message, pay attention to what troubles me then look again at the news through those eyes. I'm blessed to live in a land where we are generally treated humanely and with compassion to allow patients some freedoms our brothers in neighboring states are forbidden. I've been there, too, and remember how little my understanding was.
Thanks in large part to the FC community and no small part to the Arizer Solo, I've been won over to a much more healthy lifestyle, which helps in many aspects of day-to-day life. Thanks to the people of the great state I live in, I've grown spoiled to a cornucopia offering that are beyond my youthful dreams.
1200 pages of people helping people. I am humbled. Blessings

Hey check this shiz out everyone: My Arizer Solo survived a 15-foot fall last night and
came out virtually undamaged.
I kid you not. While it was not one of my finer moments personally, I was just blown away.
I was getting ready to get my vape on, and I set my Solo on the railing of my top floor outside deck (which I almost never do for fear of this kind of thing happening). I went to grab it and accidentally tipped it off the deck, where it went falling straight down about 15-feet into a bed of rocks.
I thought for sure that was the end of it... it would be toast, and I'd have to buy another one. So I run downstairs and pick it up, and I just couldn't believe what I saw:
The glass stem was STILL attached, and was not damaged in the least... GLASS! In fact, even the herb grind was still in the bowl, ready to go. The Solo unit itself had some nicks and scratches on it, but that was the extent of the damage. The unit powered right back up as though nothing had even happened. And it's been running like a champ ever since.
So my respect for the folks over at Arizer just went up ten-fold. Great company - they've made a durable, solid product that is not only a top-notch, high-quality portable vaporizer, but it can withstand "accidents" to a pretty significant degree.
Pass it on...

T'was only his power that was the master

Hey All, The bottom of my Solo is barely attached I have dropped it so many times. I am now on my second battery and after 2 years daily use it still beats the pants off any other portable vape out there.
Kudos to PV for great and reliable service and the new battery they sent me lasts 2x as long as my original.
I am loading mine with my standard Thai and Lao since I'm in SE Asia that's all that's available unless I grow it.
Be Good, P77

I gotta tell you all, FC's Solo forum has taught me so much about marijuana and marijuana culture in general. Fan-f**king-tastic stoned-read, as well.
Thank you for leading me from prohibitionist to activist and thank you for your contribution to the movement - you guys are shining examples of awesome stoners.

Welcome new Soloists. Join the fan club. I love hearing these stories about the durability of the Solo. For the price, there isn't another portable that I have that can withstand that kind of a fall. Probably not many in the marketplace that are as rugged as the Solo.
Enjoy your new friend in vaping. Spread the good word about, you need to fuckcombustion.

A cautionary tale. The Solo and all my MMJ was in danger of confiscation yesterday thanks to the border patrol.
My wife and I went to the artsy southern Arizona town of Bisbee for her birthday weekend. I took all of my medication (six strains totalling about 5/8ths I think) and the Solo with all my extra stems, D020, etc. My son was going to be home all weekend and I didn't want him and his friends messing with my tools or using my meds (I left him some).
Didn't think about the fact that I might have to deal with the border patrol but I should have known since the town we visited is only 10 miles from the border. We didn't have to stop at a checkpoint on the way down since we were headed south. But we passed the northbound checkpoint outside of Tombstone, AZ and they were out in force with the dog teams circling every vehicle and pulling some off for secondary inspection.
We enjoyed the trip but we were really paranoid about the drive home. We called dispensaries in Bisbee and Sierra Vista to see what they suggested about a route home. There are three separate highways we could take north but all three have permanent border patrol checkpoints and apparently the dog crews rotate between them. We were told the stop near Tombstone was the worst so we decided to go home through Sierra Vista. The locals told me border patrol wasn't arresting MMJ cardholders but they were sometimes keeping whatever weed they found. I was also told to put all the weed in my pockets since border patrol have been confiscating what they find in cars but have pretty much been unconcerned with whatever is on your person.
When we were a couple miles south of the checkpoint we got passed by a gray double cab F150 that ended up three cars in front of us at the checkpoint. Had my window down ready to talk to the agents when F150 reached the front of the line and the dogs went crazy. They pulled him out to the secondary search area and by the time we got to the front of the line they had him on the ground and were going through the inside of his truck. The dogs and all but one agent were surrounding his vehicle. The one guy we pulled up to looked at the two middle aged white people in my vehicle
, asked if we were both US citizens and after I responded with the one word "yes" he waved us through. Whew!
I was afraid I'd lose my herb but I was more worried that they would confiscate my Solo and accessories. I probably should have put the vape in my other pocket
but didn't think of that until after we cleared the checkpoint. I'm so glad that my wife, myself and my little friend Solo made it home safe and sound. Next time I go into the border zone I'll take only what I'm going to use before the return trip.

Cool. I think I wanna go by some Loto tickets with you........
I suggest you plan ahead, put a two foot or so long piece of black rubber hose in the car. Then, when pressed, put one end in the top of the Solo, the other in the air cleaner and tuck the Solo into the corner of the hood. If the cops ask what it is, tell them you don't know, the prior owner put it in. Tell 'em you tried taking it out and the mileage went to hell and sometimes it wouldn't start so you put it back......

Clean what part of it exactly? The actual Solo I do not clean very often, just the outside of it to keep it clean. The heater part stays clean. The glass stems I clean out whenever I want, I clean them out with ISO alcohol and then wash clean with water. The amber/brown buildup on the glass stems is reclaim which I save for later. It's a very low-maintenance vaporizer as far as needing to clean it.
