I use the SOLO everyday!Another one for the books! Proven time and time again. I actually used my Solo today dry(i know right) and got blasted. Half a stem with screen mod, which is pretty much how all my stems are currently. I even have my Shorty GonG with a screen to cut the size in half
The glass isnt put up tho Its still early and three glass peices within reach......
Hey @ataxian where have you been? Break any glass lately? I broke my 14mm GonG. It rolled right out of my medicated hand.
@ctxgooner what have you been up to? Hows the Soloing been going buddy?
Woooohoooo
i got it!!! Arrived an hour ago, and i just woke up to a box with a sht load of bubble wrap, and a really really nice bubbler
BUT, the didn't replace the dome and nail/bowl with an aapter like i asked.... ugh
thats just more money to spend. -_-
Anyone know where i can get supper inexpensive adapters?
Rubber bands work as well. A small piece of silicone tubing? It comes in handy, you should get some. Did your water pipe come in 18mm?Ehhh, i just made a make shift adapter made out of a small piece of toilet paper and a bunch of tape
awww yeah son, its working now
will make an even better mkeshift one in the future
I went to a dispensary today and my friend was behind the counter! Was nice to see her, she gave me a 20% discount so I gave her a tip. She recommended this Firewalker OG, Fire OG x Skywalker. It's got that classic musky piney OG and a light fruity sweet finish from the Skywalker. She hit the mark with it, intricate taste at level 2 and it's a great indica. The buds are dense and small but break up well in my Santa Cruz Shredder. I was talking to somebody else earlier about how amazing the range of tastes in cannabis is. From stuff that smells like feet to fragrances that make me want to eat it raw, and it's still the same plant!What are you Soloist vaping tonight in your Solos? My fav in the Vortex stem a bit of the grape - GrapeApe such good flavor in mine a grape and berry taste. I also have something called Pitbull that has a citrus and lavender, sweet taste. it's an awesome Indica too.
Stayed home from work with a stomach bug feeling better now.
Tonight it's Solo + GB-187, Claisen (new! pic below) and Blueberry (indica) . oh and PV Gong with cracked joint. But still works! All cleaned daily cos I love vaping through crystal clear glass
This.awww yeah son
I pack the stem to where nothing is hanging out, then give it a tap down in your palm to jar any loose material out, then insert it. Go through your session, pull it out, suck out the oven, tap stem to empty, blow out any remaining material. doing this keeps everything like new, I have absolutely no staining in the oven, and no clogged holes.

Vortex stèm=loveFYI
My Vortex stem took a tumble, I held my breath when I picked it up, luckily no breakage.It hit my foot so it diffused the fall. It was hardwood and it still held up I think with the thicker glass it made a difference.
Give thanks. Looks like I need to check out the Vortex then. I'm more of a taster than cloud-chaser so the extended airflow sounds intriguing. Sensitive to harsh vapor. Live in Europe so hoping the shipping isn't too costly. Had some blue cheese with the Solo last night. Oweeee!!!
I'm going to have to agree with carolking about the vortex. It is seriously thick. Reminds me of the nano draw glass stem. I buy all my glass accessories from PlanetVape because they have good quality.Right now the Vortex is my fav. Still like Ed's stems. I have a couple of wooden pieces I use with my Solo. I have a 3 inch WonG that i use for a mouthpiece, it's a very beautiful piece. It has a turquoise inlay.
I prefer right now using the Vortex stem, it just works so well. It has the extended airflow so the vapor is cooled. It's less harsh using the higher temperatures. And it does an excellent job of extracting the goodies from your herb.
You know there are times where we need an @Ed's TnT wooden mouthpiece.
I need an extended air path with my Air so I use the vortex stem or one of my PVHES mouthpieces. I have just been using my Vortex stem with my Solo since I got it.
It's also very easy to clean with a bit of ISO, I just use a qtip in the bowl area. Just make sure the screen doesn't get clogged so it won't restrict the air flow. The thicker glass is awesome far as breakage goes. It does take an extra minute to heat up but it's worth the wait.
You will have to decide if you think $28 is too much for such a mouthpiece. I don't think it is IMO.
EDIT
Happy Friday everybody. We made it through the workweek.
Amazing evening passed at an friend's house. She and I haven't seen each other in an age and she had exciting news. My friend just started working at one of SW Washington's fine legal recreational cannabis shops. They are letting her try the Solo (so she can speak from experience on vaping the product when customers ask about non-combustion methods). She thought I would like to give it a go and I of course agreed.
I have read repeatedly that it's not so easy to stealthily use it as a portable, so I was a little surprised by how small it was irl. The solo she's got has both the straight and the bent stems to play with, we all agree we prefer the bent. It may be a result of how she filled the stem, but the draw resistance was more that I'd like. However that's the only complaint I had. It fit my hand (felt like a tiny light saber), the stem was comfortable to use (quite a bit more substantial than the stem of an Ascent) and I was definitely medicated. <3 We kept it about a four and made a half dozen little clouds each.
I would definitely consider the solo if I were in need of a new battery op unit.
