This looks really cool, but I'm a little lost. Should I start with the inductor thread to get a handle on things?
I think that's where it was first discussed. Basically it's a wireless injector based in the Convector heating system but scaled up. You can heat it by torch, coil, wireless coil, or with the Inductor.This looks really cool, but I'm a little lost. Should I start with the inductor thread to get a handle on things?

Just checked. It will fit but I don't know that it will work.Would this work with the Wand?
No, the Wand is not powerful enough to heat the Injector. The Convector XL offers a similar experience to the Injector and works exceptionally well with the Wand and Inductor.Would this work with the Wand?
I'll have to play with timings. I've just been heating to first sign of color and it's ferocious. Haven't combusted, but I'd like to establish some low- and med-temp timings. I really like it a lot.Finally got a chance to play with the injector. After a few burn offs (mine smoked and could hear bubbling) and getting my ritual down, can report I really enjoyed the experience.
Using the new head, ~15 second cold start at 27. Slow pull to test, then let it rip. Easy to get a couple a huge pulls quickly. Quick stir, and a reheat of ~10 seconds will complete the session.
Mine does not match the lighter head but seems pretty close. Coloring happening all around the indentation.
I too am noticing the screen seems to be lifting on the heat side. It’s not loose and there seems to be three separate welds holding it in. Will monitor this.
All in all, the injector definitely matches up with other injector/ball vapes I’ve tried and is a super addition to the inductor heated family…now I want that Zooter
how long is the heat up with the torches that you’ve experimented with? does the injector work with the shovelhead bowl?You can certainly heat the injector with a torch. We did some testing and it works well. You'll need to develop your own method depending on the power of your torch, but in general, apply the torch angling away from the handle long enough for the heat to spread throughout the device. After a few tries you'll have a method that works for you. The Blazer torches seem like they would work just fine.
Obviously, the handle is wood so don't torch that!
Won't fit the shovelhead. I don't have many other metal bowls to try but it's great in an Ed's newer injector adapters and the SBL injector bowls. I've only torched it a couple times to try it but it was simple and straightforward, I don't even think I waited for color, just gave it a go after some time. Obviously I have no technique for it but results seemed promising. It's great heated wireless style in an axial coil and can be mounted in a coil, so it's pretty versatile.how long is the heat up with the torches that you’ve experimented with? does the injector work with the shovelhead bowl?
The injector is great but it is unregulated, so getting it to the range you want will not be precise and will take a bit of getting to know it. I basically zap it until I see a bit of glow and then I let it cool/regulate for a couple seconds and usually find that it's still a powerful hit. I've never torched a bowl with it but it is more aggressive at my skill level than where I usually run my injectors. Nevertheless I really enjoy it and things are sharpening up for me.Honored to have won the giveaway inductor, and I'm leaning toward the injector to go with it... (Zooter is intriguing, but I think this will be more practical, more useful for me?)

But you can also use a coil wirelessly or non. It's great wireless, though I tend to use it with the Inductor. I've also torched it for great fun, too.
The Convector XL may be worth checking out too, it's really a very easy to use bong vape (for me) that works great natively. The bowl size is nice and the the heater is really even. It's got a 14mm joint but also fits Dynavap stems and wpas. It can also work as a bowl using the Injector diffuser-style.
The SBL bowls are great for any 18mm injector; the fancy striped ones have a newer, better design:Hey all! What bowls are people using? I have seen the Convector XL apparently works pretty well, and Ed's TNT Injector bowl works too. Beyond those, what are people using as either decent cheap or more high-quality 18-14mm bowls?
(This will be my first injector-style device and I am in unknown waters!)
Convector mostly, but sometimes I heat it with an Omega wireless setup. Convector's quick and powerful; wireless is temp regulated. I've torched it too, but mostly just playing around.When y'all speak on using the Injector, are you using the wired version, or heating the head with the Convector? Already in love with my B2, don't really need another wired ball vape. Would definitely grab an Injector if folks are enjoying the experience pairing it with the Convector though
Awesome! That's precisely what my VAS was looking to hear. I've been concerned with other wireless options failing to meet my expectations after my B2. 70$ ain't too hard to recover from if I'm not overly impressed.Convector mostly, but sometimes I heat it with an Omega wireless setup.

This one will be a little different as it's not expected to retain heat in the same way that gem matrices do but I've never noticed any shortfall during a hit. It doesn't cool as quickly as you'd think, but it does reheat very quickly. For my use style, it's as functional as any ball vape more or less.Awesome!

Tbh I didn't even realize there was no gems. I should probably go check the actual listing out better. Sounds like it will definitely be a nice addition to the Convector. Thanks for taking a moment to express your thoughts.This one will be a little different as it's not expected to retain heat in the same way that gem matrices do but I've never noticed any shortfall during a hit.

High moment you sound like you know more about what I'm saying than I do. Yes, I'm trying to figure out if the injector pairs well with the Inductor. Like if it actually works well enough to compare to other ball vapesYeah I think you were confused, the injector is just a larger convector, heating element, and you mean to say inductor when you've been saying convector above, pretty sure?
