I am running my WE, with a glass bowl, at around 750 or so on my Auber to get visible vapor. I know the glass bowl and no cap means higher temps but just curious if this is inline or high compared to others experience?

I hadn’t gone above 700F, after having NV FP heads, since 4/20/18.
At 700F plus, you should be getting clouds indeed.
At 666F, I’m pretty close to charring flower, if I go too slow in my inhaling.
Sometimes, If I inhale too slow, the glass bowl, in my case, makes it close risky to combustion.
Ti bowl, is wider, and more forgiving.
Less conductive, as it takes longer than the glass bowl, to heat soak.
Water rigs being used, can affect in some ways, NV FP performance too.
Stay vaped.

Are you running the shower head or weed eater? I find the WE needs to run higher. At 660-680 I get a terp flavor but no visible vapor or much darkening of the material

I thought the Vrod was out preforming my WE with flower lately while alternating between them on the same bowl. Did this for about 5 days with different strains. I thought I had them both dialed in but...I bumped the WE up 25° to 625° And now can’t tell the difference. This is with both heat soaked before and between bowls with the heads sitting on solid resting posts, not the new hollow ones although I want to try one. If the WE comes off the heated post the heat doesn’t seem to get sucked out of it during use. From a cold start on for about 10 minutes this is not the case. I don’t understand how some of you vape at 700°+ AND cap??? I would burn the shit out of every puff. Must be difference in glass, water level and draw speed I guess.

So anyone remember that post about someone putting the dynavap in the hole :) of the vrod?

Well as I said you guys talked me into buying a dynavap it's on the way

So whoever that was does it heat up in there or no

@newvape918 I do think that is quite helpful, yes. However I am not convinced the WE doesn't need a carb cap. Over the last page or two you will see some discussion on this. I was running at like 750+ without one and am now down to like 660 and producing better vapor. I dont leave it on the whole time I am drawing, more of like a pulsing, but it is helpful.

Capping the WE works, also a different rig with a tighter pull can help as well. There are so many variables, including how you inhale. When I go to my friends house who has the WE, I either bring my own rig (since he likes it more airy, I like it a bit more tight and more visible clouds) or I bring a male joint conversion. I like the male joints for flower on this system, I def feel a bit more constriction with them...no homo! lol, j/k do people still say that

@newvape918 nothing about double weave screens on that piece, or coil specs. A VRod purchaser could look at this and go buy a coil and controller direct from Auber and the coil’s wrap would be incorrect. I also like that it was pointed out the handle and carb caps was not really called out as to usefulness and that they are extras.

Morning!

Do you guys feel this would be useful for a newb?

Always trying to simplify how to understand the FP, guess this is my latest attempt.

Yes, Chris....great job, great idea. Can't tell you how many "how do I configure NV product X" posts we get. This would be very helpful, I believe.

Oh, and while I don't have a WE, I do have a SH and I always cap my flower loads. The physics are the physics.

I hate hearing about carb capping WeedEaters, it goes against the entire design philosophy I came up with. That said, I was never sent one to actually test so :shrug:

Like I've said numerous times since the Showerhead - a simple reduction in bore diameter of the heat exchanger would likely fix all of this carb cap nonsense. Properly configured, the airflow should near perfectly match that of a packed push slide.

What's a push slide???

Again, I don't find capping to be nonsense at all and again, the physics are the physics. If you don't want to cap and like the performance, good for you. To me, the cap does what it is supposed to do, slightly drop the pressure in the chamber...then physics and boiling point depression comes into play.

Some like to cap, some don't. Either way, its our vape to do with what we want, yeah?

A removable bowl made popular with bong users, a follow up to the original grommet bowl or fixed bowl-downstem combos. Slide signifying it's removable, as many of the originals were not.

Again, I don't find capping to be nonsense at all and again, the physics are the physics.

There's nothing a carb cap is adding that can't be accomplished by simply reducing the bore of the heat exchanger inlets. The goal going all the way back to my original emails for a flower only device with the compact form factor of the VROD was to K.I.S.S.

The WeedEater was conceived as the closest device yet to mimic usage among bong smokers. Carb caps store too much heat and complicate the process for those new to vapor, as well as add to the cost; all things I purposely was trying to avoid with the WE design, especially since all other Flowerpots already have such options regardless.

Ah, I know what a slide is....but never heard it called a push slide before. I'm old...I remember using a lot of glued together pexiglass bongs with fixed downstems and bowls. Yuck! haha

I am not sure the WE was solely your idea...There have been quite a few of us asking for a flower only version for quite some time.

Plenty of bowls, bubblers etc have carb holes to restrict and release airflow. This is essentially doing the same thing, no?
