Thanks a lot man! Really helpfull stuff!Ha! Well, thus the written detail, given only in an attempt to help the reader "free think" or envision the function, characteristics and possible use scenario(s), as I suck at making fiction vids, but still usually try to supply pics so you can at least see and not necessarily have to understand all or any the technical jargon mumbojumbo.
I totally understand all of of this and was exactly how I felt looking for my first universal, simple, cheap bubbler, the Sneaky Pete mini-globe, which worked well for me and my DV for about 3 years until it simply fell apart on its own mid use and luckily by that time I purchased that even cheaper Puffitup Dewdrop rig, but I was never totally happy with it mostly cuz the mouthpiece is so low (and the perc is a little too high, but I can't do anything about that) that unless you're just burning a flower bowl, it puts the vape stuff up too high and close to your (my) face, in which case you should use a proper drop-down to lower everything and help move it away, cuz remember, the mouthpiece is fixed. Now the "can" or main body this bubbler uses relatively large diameter tubing (65mm) and has a recessed fixed 14mm "dewar" ground glass joint for the intake, going down to the showerhead circle percolator and it can be kinda hard to find decent quality, strong drop downs that will accommodate this can size without spending lots of money, so I detailed their (High Five) 90 degree claimsaver dropdown in the pics and post(s), as well.
The "rabbit hole" only exists if YOU make it so, and many often end up enjoying chasing said "hole", especially with cheap glass.... cuz I can be fun, and if you don't groove with something, just sell it or give it away.
Everything you say makes total sense. I think many when they first get into vaping (not saying this is the case with you in particular) want the same things; a single device that will accommodate all forms of vapable cannabis products, but in reality, despite the device marketing, they very rarely work well for both flower and concentrates, so sacrifices have to be made which is usually just a code word for inefficiency... and it's kinda similar with bubblers, very few styles work well with EVERYTHING. One style that does though, is a 3-piece bubbler, like the ones posted above. These pieces often do stand tall and this is where a dropdown can help, but they are much easier to find for intake joints that stick up above the can, rather than recessed like a dewar joint provides. They are all usually very stable, however, despite the height, cus the foot, or base, is usually quite large, plus everything is very close to the center of gravity.
I am all about "work horse" devices, believe me, and found it with my Goo Roo 3-piece almost 3 years ago.... I love it every bit as much as the day I bought it, perhaps even more now. To me it provides extreme versatility, along with being super easy to clean for a relatively large piece. Mouthpiece is too high? Grab one you like better. Not happy with the stock perc, try a new one... at thi this point it's relatively cheap to make the changes a personalize YOUR device and experiences.... similar also to having a variety of different products to consume.... variety is the spice of life, and for keeps from ending up like like work, or simply maintaining a "habit".
I love the the term "beater" and use it often... I also hope all or some of this detail and explanation is helpful, I know I would've appreciated it when I first started looking for vape glass.
How is it where you are purchasing from Germany, cuz thus place has some great 2 (fixed downstem) and 3-piece bubblers (when in stock of course) like this:
That uses here here like @Chicken No Name love and recommend.Water filter for vaporizer Ehle Power Tower
The Power Tower humidifies the vapor and cools it additionally. This gives you a better vapor feeling. Especially recommended when you need to cough :)verdampftnochmal.de
I personally have always wanted one of these systems but the shipping to the US has always put it just out of reach for me:
Looks very stable and versatile and if you don't like the stock mouthpiece or perc, just change it to anyone you like from anywhere!Water filter for vaporizer - Ehle AKW System V2

Very much appreciated!!
I'll read it again to let it soak right in but the german shop you linked is perfect for me. Ordered a lot of my stuff there actually but guess i avoided the glass section for above reasons...
Those pieces look awesome in their simplicity, specially the one that's not in stock ATM. Looks really stable being so low and bulky!! Might be a bit pricier then i had in mind but otoh guess it's worth it if i know it's a workhorse beater kinda piece that will satisfy my (current) needs and can be used for both tm/TP80 (with the right "converter" that must be possible i guess).
Buy once, cry once seems applicable.
Could risk waiting for black friday but also for the other linked piece the stock is low.... Decisions...
Thanks again!
