Vaped
Yep I clean stems several times a week, I love my vaping equipment to be pristine... even wipe down the units lol :cool:

Hard to come by ISO in aus though, i use hot water and metho (methylated spirits)--hope that's still okay

..but i may drop this sucka in tea or hotchocolate...heard of some people doin that

No, not tea. And you have to be careful what hot chocolate you use, you need milk FAT in the game. At least Whole milk. A shot or two of cream added makes it even better. The good stuff binds to the fat, otherwise you're caught in that 'oil and water don't mix' thing.

Wow there is so much posting here I just can't read them all just yet. Since it is Friday Highday I just finished a really fun session with the solo, the DO20 and my Ed wood adapter which came in really handy since I broke the PVHGong. I panicked when I did that eariler in the week but I have one on order from JoDa

I tried for about half a second to skip today or at last wait until Bill Maher but sometimes that doesn't happen. But I did wait till dark and I have been good for the past 3 days and so it's all good . now when I do it I really feel it. So happy weekend everyone

LI too much snow Mom

@ataxian You have some Grape Ape in that Solo or Girl Scout
Cookies? Either way it's all good.
Grape APE taste like grape. I have a lot of it. Every night!
Right now I have PARIS OG, MARS OG and Purple GSC everyday!
My solo is my driver until I get some new GonG's for my other vaporizers.
Planet vapes had some GonG female 14mm and vortex stem I love.

So I picked up a new piece of glass locally this week, and last night managed to hit it just hard enough to break off a perc inside :( so now both of my bongs have a missing perc. I'm thinking I need to look into the D20 sooner rather than later. I'm terrible with this midsize- I've broken or dinged all of them- I even wore out my first acryrilc bong!
More on topic, my stems are filthy dirty. I was just gonna do hot chocolate, which certainly works, but I'm heading to the store to pick up some heavy cream. Then I'll be able to portion it out instead of pretty much having to kill it all at once, which from my GonG alone could send me into 'oh shit' land. (I've been there, it wasn't pretty, although it makes for an awesome story.)
Happy weekend, all! I'll be beeping all through it.

Good plan, IMO. Another option on the theme would be butter. Yummy on toast and so good for you......

Weedy Girl - I'm so there with you on broken glass. I seem to breaking everything at this point and thats why I'm liking the Ed wood adapter rite now - no breaking. You would very much like the D20; it's a nice thick peice of glass, it hits really we'll and I think it handles both my solo and my evo - the beast - very well. I know it's from China but the sunshine store on DHgate is reliable and it's worth the wait IMO. I mean for the price it's really good.


I'm also learning a little more about glass and adapters since having the solo and I did pick an even smaller but nice recycler in Nola at my local head shop. I don't understand why head shops which have all manner of gllass, grinder containers etc remain so clueless about vaporizers. They don't have that many; they mostly have only the pens and they dont seem knowledgable about the ones they have. What's up with that and don't you wish we could open a " try it before you buy it" shop in our individual locations? It could be done. Of course, I'm not even in a legal state But a mom can dream.....LOL

Ever since i found out that one of our LHS has replacement Solo stems and another one whipped out an Ascent in front of me and showed me how it loaded, the mouthpiece, etc (I gotta say it was very sexy- but my Solo is my love!)- I'm hopeful about the local scene. And we're so far from legal- I'm in the Bible Belt and several of my friends have bets that we'll be the last state to go.
Funny enough, though, I have some friends that work/worked for a LHS. This used to be my go-place forever, because support your crew, but- they're not up on the vapes like the other places. It makes me feel so disloyal, but no backtracking.

So I got back home and fully charged up the solo but now its acting even funnier. If I try to turn it on and bring it up to temp it just sits at level 1 for like 5-10 seconds and then flashes up some more LEDs some times(as if the LEDs are rapidly going up in temp) and then it just flashes the blue idle light for about 5-10 seconds and shuts off. I tried doing the re set but that doesnt seem to do anything. I dont even know if its actually re setting or not?

edit- looks a lot like this guys

@Scott A , google 'soft reset' in this thread. Use the search box up in the right corner. There's a hard reset that involves opening it up- I'm not nearly handy enough to be up on that.
FWIW, my original Solo had some kinda electrical issue that ended up with my blue idle light never turning off or charging. The same day I sent it off to be serviced, I marched to my LHS for a replacement/backup. I got sent a new one, and now I have twins!

I tried the reset multiple times... Trust me its not my first experience with a solo not working.

edit- now the flashing LED doesnt even stop at all.

IMO, the battery is failing under load. Bad news as only cure is replacement.
There might be an off change of main battery connection at connector inside but wouldn't get the hopes up. How does it act while trying to vape while on the charger?

I had the same issue. If you have a warranty just return it. I've been without my solo for almost 2 weeks only with the vapor genie, but my new one arrives on Wednesday. Thank God for the warranty!!

It sucks but one good point is Arizer has obviously drastically improved their warranty team since the last time I had to do this. Just got the whole conversation done through email in a few minutes... last time it was days in between messages. Luckily I still have a few months left on the 2 year warranty so they are willing to replace it.

@Pipes when trying to vape on the charger its odd. Because some times when I plug it in it actually does the charging sequence but other times it just flashes back and forth between the idle and 7 lights. When it acts like its actually charging it seems like it just ignores that I have even tried to turn it on. When its flashing back and forth it does the idle light thing for a few seconds then goes back to the 7 and the idle alternating.

I'm with Pipes here, sounds like battery to me as well. Erratic (but different) operation when plugged in is not a good sign.

Since the battery is only warrantied for a year, you might end up paying for the replacement? You might want to be sure you understand what happens if that's the case and you send it in (do they contact you for authorization, send it back as is after checkout, or replace the battery and charge you for the service).

Good luck with it, as you know it's not pretty being Sololess.......

I hope its not the battery. This thing really hasnt even seen that much use over its time, its one of my vapes that I use the least. I will definitely make sure to specifically ask about that policy because im really not interested in shelling out anything more than shipping just to have a working solo right now.

edit-for the response I got from arizer

The issue you have described is an internal wiring/circuitry issue and not battery related. If after inspecting the unit it was determined that the issue was in fact the battery then we would let you know and send you an invoice for the replacement Solo battery ($49.99 plus applicable taxes), if that was how you chose to proceed.

I'm grabbing myself an Arizer Solo and I'm unsure how much to smoke for first time.

I used to smoke around 13yrs ago so I know what to expect.

Recently I smoked twice (joint) with my wife, first time she said she didn't get high while I was laughing my ass off :)

Second time she was coughing a lot and had a bad trip that her throat was hurting like hell, I had a bad trip trying to focus on her to make her feel well and give positive vibe to her, after 45min she felt better but said that she always thought it was supposed to make you feel relaxed, and she was not feeling relaxed or happy.



So I wanna grab us Arizer Solo, but I'm not sure how much we should smoke, I read that vaporizers are more efficient, so don't want to smoke too much.

Also any recommendation as to Indca, Sativa or Hybrid ?

Thanks guys.

If she bad tripped, it could be the strain, the amount she inhaled, how quickly it was consumed, a lot of different variables. I think vaporizing is a good way to try flowers at different heat levels (different temperature provides different effects). She may need to vaporize at lower temperatures and maybe a different strain?

For more uplifting and cerebral high, sativas do the job. A more body, relaxing, takes the pain away is the Indica. I would pick up a gram of each and pack a small bowl. you need to experiment because different people have different experiences. I find that my friends who occasionally indulge like sativas better because they feel it makes them more creative (one who is an author, other is a producer).

Try lighter temperatures and a different strain. Why the solo is so awesome is that you can experiment. You always can take out the stem when you want a long break. I'll also bet you guys will really taste the fresh flowers versus burning thru it all with a joint. She can take one draw and wait to see if she likes the effects. An opinion from someone who is lying in bed with the flu, wishing I was out there vaping with you guys.
