I received a ?? about other tips w/convector, here's a quick response.
"I have tried the vaphit X, and like the helix the vent holes in the bowl take away from the convection process of the convector cap by letting cool air into the bowl w/out heating it through the heatmatrix in the tip. The vapx won't hold the convctr cap as it's slightly skinnier than the vong tips, some vong tips are just big around enough to hold the convctr cap because they are a bit too tight a fit for regular captive caps, so doesn't let cool air in around the sides.
I've also found the tips w/ spiral grooves (5 fin Ti) again lets too much cool air in around the tip. All the air needs to pass through the heat matrix in the end of the cap."
ps 9fin SE is spiral so doesn't work, halo and omni does
