Is this smoke literal or figural?
It's a bit of a running joke amongst electrical engineers. The smoke is literal, but the magic is just a figure of speech.

Don't worry though, the components in the Arizer would let out only a tiny a wisp of that stuff and the airpath get's pulled from the top. And thats IF that is what happened here. Could be a heating coil burned out or something else.

It's techie slang. Electronic things work because there's magic blue smoke inside. Every once in a while, the magic smoke gets out and your computer/TV/whatever is then dead.....because the magic blue smoke got out. Techies don't get out much, it passes for humor don't you know?
Of course it's not. Nobody is making fun of folks with no education. My landlord was plenty educated (just in Italy.....), the point is while he was comfortably supporting his family (partly with my money.....) with what any objective person would see as a disadvantage in the free market, I for all my (questionable) education was struggling and paying his mortgage (in part) with my hard earned money.
Absolutely right Vinicio Tateo was no dummy. He was getting my money and using it to bankroll his families future.....sounded pretty smart to me then, still does now. He got me to 'smarten up' and invest the mortgage money in my name instead.
Read whatever you wish into it, but that was my intent.
OK, after a bit of thought, is the processor dead? Does it recognize the power cord for the charger being plugged in?

How's the Solo Ground Glass on Glass Adapter different from the PVHEGonG aside from the lack of PVHE increased airflow (if at all)?
I bought a Solo Ground Glass on Glass Adapter but hope it won't be a pain to need to pull very lightly with it. Maybe I'm just worrying too much?

Exit, from what I understand it doesn't have the advantages of the pvhes stem. It is a stock stem that is longer then the he gong but shorter then the stock stem is the way I read it.
Ataxian, that pic came out fine. If macro doesn't work just pull back and edit and it will still be clear. How the heck are you getting the stem in with that? BTW that trick as been done just with a screen at the bottom not a ball.

I like mine and think you will too. If you don't find the factory stems too much to deal with that is.....

We can't hear you cause we don't recognize that avatar
I miss the African American version of Jabba the Hut too but I was kindly asked by a mod to change it after a few members complained.
Right, Dreamer - I've been caving a screen high off the bottom of the heater (just for kicks), and lo and behold I think Exit's really on to something. Especially while I'm using my PVHES bent turbo or Ed's wood. Nice, cool & quicker relaxed draws and WOW, powerful vapor! Nice even cook! Looks like enhancing the convection aspect by way of the coil, while maintaining the conduction in and about the stem bowl, somehow does a real number on the herb in between! This little secret is big on reward! Thanks!!!!
I'm sorry to see that your personalized freedom of expression has been quelled by others who had the opportunity to express freely themselves. Notwithstanding the fact that you have been a valuable contributor to our forum (your forum too), it was easy to see past your avatar to know the genuine person that you are. Yes, I did comment that I missed the Jabba avatar that was replaced with the GZ pic, but I in no way intended to impose my preference on you. Jabba T H, by the way, was a villain that could be viewed with equal stature in my book (also popular public perception), so either way it's all good

There is a whole thing about it way back in the thread and also maybe 50 pages or so back as it was brought up again. I think it was right before or just after OF joined the thread if that helps. I tried it and didn't like it but lots do. This is why we have this board as we get all kinds of ideas and some work for you and some don't. I have stuff I hated and now love and visa versa as we all change day to day.
I have both the regular GonG and the PVHES GonG. They both work just fine, IMO. If I had to choose between the two it would be the PVHES version, but both function well.
I have noticed however that my PVHES stem is a lot looser in my Solo that the regular GonG (or my other stock stems for that matter). So I've taken to screwing down the cap for use with the PVHES GonG and this tightens up the o-ring and "squishes" it a little which makes the diameter a little bit smaller. I'm not good at explaining, so I'll make a video...

Stu, you aren't the first that said that and I can't play the vid right now or I will be cursed out for using bandwidth. Why do you think they are so much looser? I know pv hand makes them but duh some many have complained and that was my hesitation ordering that type. I gave my washer away and now I am made cause if it is loose the washer would have worked perfectly. Maybe I can get another one but shit I don't want a damn bag of washers.

Thanks a bunch for the knowledge, and the video was a wonderful addition.
Do you find the with the regular GonG it's more difficult to fill the chamber? I guess that's really what I was worrying about.
I was gonna buy a PVHE gong or PVHES with the stock GonG but couldn't bring myself to spend that much $!

I have one SOLO completely stock.
The other all customized however missing the metal flake paint job and pin lines.
My experiment provided thought provoking effects.
Just before dinner I had a stem with the customized SOLO. The vapor had a blue transparent hue.
The effect was energizing however mild but rather appropriate.
After the tall glass of almond milk to wash down the batch of Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies I broke out the Stock SOLO.
Water Set Up and level 5!
Now this is very powerful or I'm just a light weight or maybe a shift into a higher gear?
OK both of these SOLO trials were both done with my week-end allocations.
I allow myself 3.1 grams Friday noon until Sunday night.
PLATINUM OG = 1 gram
GOD'S GIFT = 2.1 grams
Medium ground together in one homogeneous mass of continuity.
Plus a few rips with one of my PERSEI's (SHATTER).
Two SOLO's both providing a function.
One is not better than the other just different.
Quiver is my perspective!

I'd like to see the ABV that mesh produces... That blue vapor IMO is just low temp vapor, just different active ingredient signature thus different effects.

I've also heard a theory that says it's related to particle size in the vapor. We call it vapor, but it's not really. Vapor is individual molecules as a gas mixed with other gasses typically (seldom in pure form). Steam is water vapor until it becomes visible as 'fog' (small liquid water droplets suspended in the air).
What we call vapor is really and aerosol. A suspension of small solid particles in the air (like 'weaponized' anthrax from the WMD guys). The theory holds that different sizes can show as different hues (which makes some sense to me on the face of it).
Particles of hundreds or even thousands of THC molecules together that have to mechanically mate up with our lungs and airways to transfer the goodness to us. Not true vapor (one molecule at a time).
Noah used to go on about 'the ideal particle size', mostly to do with nicotine (his main interest I think), I wish I'd paid more attention...... It could turn out to be a useful clue?

Good Point.I'd like to see the ABV that mesh produces... That blue vapor IMO is just low temp vapor, just different active ingredient signature thus different effects.
I will take note of the ABV condition next trial.
This trial did put me in a deep uninterrupted sleep for a good 5 1/2 hour which is actually a positive effect.
The benefits of various temperature level extractions were relevant!
Combustion is liken to taking a stack of $100 bills and lighting them on fire!

You are soooooooooooooo sweet 2clicker, thanks a bunch. I was being nice to a guy that helps me out and the o-ring on his solo was useless so I tried the washer and it worked. I had to give it to him so he wouldn't break any more stems from dropping out. With the o-ring on the stem it still fell out. It shows you the solo's as most products to have some differences, some more then others.
Damn the pics on PV site are deceiving. Stu, you are saying the hes is taller or shorter? I can see from your pic it isn't much either way. On PV site it seemed like the stock gong was almost as tall as the stock stem. I will report when I get mine.
Now I will go back and see what experiment I was suppose to do this weekend with stems.
