Ok.. so I placed my order and realized that the Handle isn't included when buying the box and coil and is only included in the bundles. I just got into a back and forth with Chris and he added the handle to the order for me after I paid the difference. Not only that, but it is being shipped out today as well! I didn't speak to him directly but the customer service is absolutely astounding! I can expect my package on Monday according to UPS. I can't wait to get my daily driver back!

I did order the new handle which is all aluminum and engraved with CH instead of the Hempwick. What do you guys think of that new handle?

I prefer the look of the new handle. Not a big fan of hempwick. Enjoy!

Me too! I thought I would give it a try! I'll let you know what I think in about a week!

Does anyone own both the new and old Shovelhead bowls? Do you have a preference when using the 22mm standard diffuser?
I know the new bowl is smaller in diameter to fit the injector diffuser. Noticed any difference to the conduction heating with the thicker walls on the new bowl? Or negligible?

I got my flowerpot during the back Friday sale, and am having a problem. It hits so great, fast and clean that it's turned me off from my many other vapes!

I never touch my plug-in Volcano Hybrid or vapexhale EVO anymore, and don't dare dabble with any of my portables like my mighty+, crafty+, or tinymight2 unless I'm out of my house. Hell, vaping out of the house with my portables is now less enjoyable because I wish I was using my FP!

Also, another observation I've had is that while I'm using the same or probably more amount of material daily, my throat seems to be less irritated and I have less phlegm compared to my daily vaping before my flowerpot. I speculate that perhaps it's because there's less total vapor going down my throat since the FP finishes a bowl in a couple of hits instead of slowly sipping over many hits (I'm looking at you, Storz and Bickel, with that bickel tickle with your vapes).

Has anyone else had similar observations?

My only real negative is not knowing what temp I'm actually vaping at. Been using a B0 and B1 head anywhere between 580 and 650, and wish I knew what temps I was actually hitting the herb at, as I do like to try and stay down below 390 to not vaporize some of the less desirable, unhealthy components.

Having a problem with my Auber RDK 300B. It just keeps switching itself off? At first I thought it might be a faulty coil so I switched out my B1 with the B2, same problem.

Auto shutoff is set to 999 so its not that. This problem started to happen if I left the RDK on my patio overnight and it was too cold. After warming up back inside it would start working again.

Now, its inside, its not cold, and it can't stay on. Initially I got it climbing to about 550, then it would auto shut itself off again. Now its just shutting itself off whenever I turn it on. Its about a year old. Is it broken?

Maybe it get wet with difference of temperature. The best is to let it soak before switch on ... But seems too late.

 

[tinctorus]

The Auber 300 is great. However in my opinion it would be even better if they were to put the xlr port on the front of the box instead of on the back. That's just a minor issue but it doesn't impact the performance at all. I do agree that it's a great PID for temp stepping and the ease of changing the temperature.

Do you prefer the pid to have the port on the back on all your pids or just the auber? I've got 3 different ones and the high five pid is in the beam but the dual pid has the ports on the front, theyre both great but I think for looks I prefer in the back

that could be it. Its been inside for a few hours now and seems to be staying on again. Probably best to not use it on the patio again unless its summer lol

Your story is kind of typical and matches my own experience. Whenever I have the opportunity to introduce someone to vaping, I always ask if they want to start with portables and work their way up or go straight to the mountain top. I have pretty much stopped vaping outside the house and on anything other than the FP. I keep temps in the 580 to 620 range, mostly around 590. And for whatever reason, when used with water through a nice all-glass vapor path, there is no back-of-throat tickle or coughing or harshness like with most other vapes.

I also keep it between 580-620. 590-600 is for sure the sweet spot I think

 

[Socks And Sandals]

Running my B2.. the sweet spot at least for 2 strains was roughly 100F lower than what the Vrod was recommended for.. I found 540 to 560 the sweetspot.. but with this sherbert Indica it's usually 540F. I went as low as 520, and it was still spitting vapor. Anyhow, my new Auber and coil should be here tomorrow according to UPS. Looking forward to seeing that new handle too!

Just got home and received my CH Order and I'm about to install the Auber PID cover. While this may sound like a stupid question but how do you remove the knob? Does it just pull off easy? I tried and really don't want to break the thing before hearing back. Does the knob just pull straight out? I only applied minor pressure pulling outward from the top. It just feels like it's going to break. Before I do apply full force.. Is this all you do? Or does it require turning it or pressing down or something? I

I'm gonna make dinner real quick, I'll be back in about 15 minutes. Does it just pull straight out? Someone please confirm this so I can proceed without the fear of breaking it. I could have sworn they had a video on this that I can't find on their YT channel anymore.Thanks fellas...

Thanks.. I'm struggling with this.. it aint coming off and feels as if i'm actually bending it. I'll keep trying.. this mother fucker is a bitch. It really isn't coming off and I just heard it crack.. FUCK!!! This feels like it's cemented on there if I break it they better take it back because I'm following their instructions.. Here she goes... This is NOTHING like is shown in the video.. It's cemented on there it seems.. Jesus if I break this I'm going to be pissed.

Edit. I got it out but I still think I loosened the knob socket as it wiggles a tiny bit now.. If it was truly meant to be taken off, It should have never been put on that fucking tight.

I think the 300B is slightly different as it didn't come off no where near as easily as chris showed. Also the knob connector did have a flat part to align the screw with but it didn't have yellow on the top of the knob attachment as this does so I would assume there would be some minor differences. Just a heads up to others, mine was on like a mofo and I was finally able to get it off with a soft cloth wedged under it and pulling up evenly.

Sorry I panicked but I just spent a whole lot of money on this. @Grass Yes Thank you my man!

I would also be a bit panicked if I heard that cracking sound! Glad you got it taken care of.

I think I wound up using a bigger screw driver to get a little leverage when i did it but its too late for you now but in case anyone runs across this.

Yeah I was thinking to do that too had wedging a cloth underneath it didn't work. It makes me feel a tad bit better knowing I wasn't the only one who had a hard time with removing that knob. Hopefully this will help someone else.

On a side note, I plugged my new coil into the NV.controller just to see if that issue that I mentioned earlier in the thread about the yellow wire being loose was isolated only to the coil. It was. I was thinking of selling it but now I think I'll keep it for a future T bucket. It's funny because the new coil that came with my Auber not only didn't have the same issue of over shooting the temp but the temp also barely changed when I'm inhaling at all. Maybe 10 degrees that about it. It's almost as if that new coil showed me my NV controller actually has less issues with this new coil than the previous. I did finally attach it back to the Auber but man I'm happy! And... there is no rattle with the B2 either!

Definitely going to keep the NV PID for the time being seeing as how that new coil proved to me that there never was anything wrong with the NV controller despite buying an Auber. My only complaint about the Auber is it's very bright in a pitch black room. I went to sleep last night and had to cover the readout with a cloth. I also set the low limit for the auto shut off to 150F so that kinda helps. Again, all in all I like the Auber better but if my NV PID still works.. the only thing that is missing for it is a T-Bucket and Flat Coil.

I'l try to post some pics.. I completely forgot how to do it. Maybe someone can chime in?

There may be a way to adjust the brightness or turn off the display.

 

[androponic]

@Socks And Sandals you could try this too if there is no adjustment to your liking, they offer different strengths as well.

Was it exposed to rain, or are you saying relative humidity caused it to malfunction?

I haven't gotten through the Auber Manuals just yet (there are 6 of them on the CH website) but if there is a parameter/setting for it I'll let you know if I find it! It would be nice if there was.

Thanks man! A buddy of mine told me about these stickers a long time ago that he used for pretty much everything in his room from space heaters to fans. Hell I might just pick up some of these to cover my modem/router, fan and heater too! Thanks brother! I really appreciate that! I just added them to my amazon wish list for next paycheck!

Does anyone have a link to a good brush for the bowl? Something that uses natural bristles, not synthetic. S&B used to sell a good one but I can't seem to find it at a reasonable price anymore.

Thx, they have been out of stock for a long time. Shipping is less than $3 so not too bad.
