@Rick- I have a feeling whatever styles/shapes you turn, will be awesome and still flying high above others. And just to throw in my opinion on design, both my CRZs (N31 & J1), I feel are the perfect shape, size, design, etc. Did I mention I love them????? lol. -
I have said (many times), that fine and DRY have worked wonders for me. Now after a good dry (cure included), 15% is generally the target for moisture content. At least for smoking. Burns nice and even, not too quickly.
With vaping, I grind enough for a day or two, then let it sit out in the air (opposed to jar). Since this has given me better vapor production (at least as far as visible vapor is concerned), I hypothesize that somewhere less than 15% is optimal for vaping. No idea how much lower, but if it is "perfect" smoking moisture level, it should be beneficial to let it dry a little more.

Sometimes herbs with a good grind won't give good vapor even when dried. At times I've been able to compare with a friend using the same herbs. He smokes though. He would complain about that particular batch burning up in seconds like there was nothing there. I figured this meant they just weren't very good quality.
As far as a smoking friends complaints of "burning up in seconds", it appears that the herb was too dry for smoking. As a reference, what I would consider "perfect" dryness for smoking, would give me 2-3 hits out of a full sized one-hitter (you know, the dugout type?). Now a product that I had that was too dry for smoking, in the same one-hitter, would burn up in less than a full hit.
Long story short, for me, what is "perfect" dryness for smoking, needs to be dryer than that for vaping. At least as far as visible vapor production.
EDIT** I have zero experience with models prior to CRZ, but I do notice a difference with the 12v DC, and I suggest switching to that if anybodies AC happens to shit out on you.
