Arizer Solo

Got a shorty PVHE stem on order. Had a real change of opinion on the volcano lately as first balloon gets you so high, kind of gets in the way of doing stuff so small loads (0.05g) on this would be a good alternative.

Couldn't find anyone with a short turbo stem but oh well....

Mailman came over an hour late compared to the usual time, :cuss: but I've finally got my Solo plugged in. Tick Tock...

Indicator was on level 5. so hopefully it won't be too long before I can get a solid green light.

Really want to wait at least 4 hours on solid green, but I already find myself thinking about 2 hrs solid, and just one bowl LOL. I know it might open pandora's box though......

Well. At least she's here, and charging! :tup:

@Sativa Lover Sometimes temptation overrides but it's best to do a solid charge and then some. Understandable if that doesn't happen. An exciting time for you but long term you will be happy if you wait like @OF always says.

Welcome to the Solo fan club. There's a lot of happy owners that want everybody to enjoy the Solo like we do. A way to medicate and save on herb. This unit does an excellent job of extracting the flavor from the product you are using.

Congratulations on your purchase. Everybody remember tooooooo
Fuckcombustion from now on. A perfect New Years resolution, easy to keep with the Solo.

Bad advice. Best battery life comes from a full charge before any discharge.

The above advice violates that, I recommend a full charge before any discharge.

OF
I'll just charge it while I sleep. That will give it a 6-7 hour charge. Never even think about battery longevity, but the helpful people at FC help me realize what is truly is important in a vaporizer. I have some bud covered in honey oil, do you think I should use it on the arizer solo or can some drip into the heater?

I only could wait til about 2 hours and 45 minutes after hitting solid green to mess with mine.:doh:

Sorry little buddy....

All I can say after using only the MFLB to try to vape herbs, until an hour ago is WOW. Not even close...

I'm blown away by this device. I was just saying today before the Solo came in that I thought I could vape, and not smoke anymore, even though it was different.

But things are different now. I never got anywhere near this completely medicated from the launch box. That's after several trenches, compared to 2 bowls in the Solo. It was a little sad to me because I thought vaporizing might not be able to "get you there" if you were a heavy medicator such as myself.

I stand 100% corrected, and I'm so glad for that.

Game on.
:worms:

The next time you try a blunt it may feel and taste like breathing in smoke from a campfire. You may not even miss it.;)

Go for it! I had a couple grams of the stuff when the idea to try it occurred to me. I put increasingly thinner layers of ground herb under it. It did run a small bit, but 1/16 inch or so seemed to be enough. About that point I ran out of it and the experiments came to a sad end.

I literally almost puked the other night from combusting for the first time in about 2 months. I pulled out a little one hitter that was all tared up and has been sitting. Made me gag.

I know that one, ain't it weird? You used to love that taste?

Ok, I've been using the SOLO+D020.

Great until today??... before my AVB was getting dark brown and getting 6-7 hits ay least. The first 2-3 very dense and the next 4-7 a little less.

Today, For some reason, after three hits there's almost No vapor and AVB is yellow/honey color, even some faint green..letting it rest between draws too. My heat level doesn't drop to 6 or anything. Could I have maybe stopped drawing before I pulled the solo+glass gong off and had material blowback in there? It just seems I've let it sit a Very Long time in between hits and its not even getting my material darker when I check to make sure im not waiting too long.
Regiment:
I turn it on with stem in and let it climb to 7.I have also tried letting warm up to 7 and inserting stem. I cant really tell the difference. I noticed getting passed "1" takes longer than my other SOLO did?

Any ideas? Am I just OCD about AVB??
Thats sounds like it could be a Naughty By Nature song. :lol:

Material: Dry (same since I got the D020)
Stem:stock
Grind:medium
Pack:loose
Temp level:7
Amount:3/4 of a stem
O-ring is installed but my stem still wiggles.

You wanted more reading material, you got it. I know you gals/guys keep coming back. I sure know I do. Im just glad I finally joined up after being a phantom lurker for so long.

I literally almost puked the other night from combusting for the first time in about 2 months. I pulled out a little one hitter that was all tared up and has been sitting. Made me gag.
Same thing happened to me. My Solo stopped working and my EQ had a broken heater cover.
So I used the combustion bowl in my D020. I just about died!!!
I gagged, retched and almost puked:puke:.
I was actually in a panic, because the pain(24/7) without weed is simply unbearable.
Thankfully I figured out a way to make a repair to the EQ using some spare glass for a heater cover.
So, I ordered a new Solo and am waiting. I will go through the warranty procedure on the broken one and will have a backup ,so I won't have to go through this again. Two Solos will enable me to keep on vaping while the other is charging. I am a medical user so it is important.

When meat has too much char from smoke it makes me sick nowadays.

Hard to tell from here, but my guess is you need to wash them out? Stuff that condenses includes stuff that smells (and builds up) and stuff that feeds science projects that then smell. High strength ISO and salt is a traditional way. My personal favorite is a special detergent developed for beer making, Powdered Brewery Wash. A small amount goes in, then fill with hot water for 10 minutes or so. It balances for hard water, uses 'oxygen action' to get under stuff and float it off, is not toxic, and rinses freely. It's designed to get banked on gunk out of brew kettles, grody bongs are light duty.

You can get it on Amazon, and 'Home Brewing' shops. Great stuff, you should see what it does to the deposits in the dishwasher......

The Solo is getting cheaper and cheaper. I hope your friend can use the warranty if something happens? The Solo is sturdy and well made but you never now when the unexpected happens.

Yes the Solo is a gift to yourself that keeps giving. Not only do you have a cream of the crop vaporizer but also you're saving money on meds as well. You and your friend can afford some top shelf.

Enjoy and keep on vaping.
I am also loving the solo - she's very hard to resists especially with the DO20 bubbler. Since I got my PV adapter I haven't used my ED Wood. I need to lower the temp - I always want to go full blast. I also think the stems are very smooth. I know am gonna do one more round tonite and that's ok as long as I don't raid that fridge....what is the best way to keep the little round oven clean?

Water-solubles like vaporized terpenes and such. You're diffusing vapor through water, it's going to start smelling any way you cut it. It's that bad to you though? At worst my bong water smells like wet hay, something that doesn't really bother me considering I was nearly born on a pile of it...

OK guys I think I found a cheap power adaptor for the solo

The slim PS2 adapter seems to fit the specs and offers even more mA than PV's offering...the only problem is that the head connector might not fit the solo but that's fixable

Specs : Input: 100V-240V - 1.5A 50/60 Hz Output: 8.5V - 5.65A
Compared to the official one the only different is 5.65A to 5.00mA

Bought one for 7.58$ including shipment!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Power-Suppl...t=Video_Games_Accessories&hash=item1e6df5f94d

I think that the reason the PS2 adapters were failing were from improper soldering. They used stranded wire so when you are soldering with that it is really easy to mess up and short circuit it. If I remember correctly, out of three that tried it, one actually did work.

I'm sure you will be fine using a standard barrel plug. Good job on this mod; and it seems to me like you have all of the valid precautions taken so I don't think your going to be in any danger from it. Thanks for posting your work

So has anyone had success with the PS2 power adapter with a 5.5x2.1mm female jack to 4.0x1.7mm male or by replacing it with a new plug? It's 8.5V and 5.64A so there shouldn't really be any problems technically speaking?

I have an original PS2 and not a fake copy so I don't expect it to catch fire but I'd like to know if someone had successfully done it before just in case :)

I'm not sure if the original PS2 adapter will work? I used an old working "slim" PS2 power supply, spliced up the proper connections, and it triggers "PA mode" in my old model Solo. When I say "old model" I mean the one that needs one cable to charge, and a separate cable for PA. Mine's rated 8.5v and 5.65a and works.

Just received my solo and enano. Going to listen to OF, and do a overnight charge. I guess it's time to play with the enano. One night sacrifice to charge the battery fully and extend its life is great. I actually read thru the instructions and doesn't mention it. That is why I love the FC community. Man, this thing is much smaller than I thought and silver looks sleek
