Cannabis Hardware (formerly NewVape) FlowerPot Twax Vaporizer

I put up a video comparing the Baller Head with the V-rod and modded B-rod
I also included the DC Elev8r for extra fun.
Wayy too hot for youtube though, so it's only on my website right now

Yeah. Here's a larger screenshot showing the URL. Maybe I just need to update my browser or something...

This Nut looks so new age with the sparkly new head. With the Baller Nut it’s was way smoother to set up, feels safer, and I was able to fit about 12 more 3mm balls.

Has anyone bought the Hydro Tube?

Hey guys getting my baller head soon very excited, was wondering what other bowls you guys were using aside from the shovelhead?

 

[waxdab23]

A little confused about the new baller head. I've been using the v-rod for as long as a I can remember now - daily driver. Is the baller head something I can add to the top of the vrod assembly in order to get more even and efficient cooking? If so, do I need to get balls separately? Which material balls are most of you guys using?

I think its the bottom part thats different. So you would be able to integrate it with your current vrod coil and top (sic dish) i think the balls you'd have to get then separate. Vgoodiez has boro and ruby for like 15$ probably the ones im going to experiment with when it arrives later today

Like @Ernielicous said you'd use the baller with your current coil and vrod top. CH has 4mm quartz balls which are fine, but I like the 3mm rubies from vgoodiez more. I put a 5/8 screen under the rubies so they wouldn't block the air holes. Vgoodiez also has 3mm boro balls for even cheaper.

be advised dabbing with the baller may not be good idea?!? jury is still out on that one right now

 

[mecrobs]

Just got a vrod and interested in getting a screen baller on the next drop. Been hearing lots of good things!

More details please.

I dabbed with the baller head and a sapphire dish all weekend with no problems. It was good enough that I didn't feel the need to fire up the Tsunami at all.

 

[WelshBrok]

That’s an interesting point, any super sensitive to metal vapour path people notice a flavour difference with the reduced contact with Ti?

vapour from dabbing might stick to the balls and burn possibly ? troys Brod was full of burnt reclaim

Probably depends on what gets put thru it; that same potential is there with the regular v-rod head, it's just more exaggerated with the extra surface area of the balls. I was doing live rosin and shatter over the weekend and the balls still rattle around inside the head. How clean they are remains to be seen, but I've noticed no degradation in vapor or flavor. If I have to clean my balls a little more often, I can live with that.

 

[Bad Dog]

I also believe that the baller with its much greater mass vs the Brod might more burn off potential residue more efficiently or even do a better job repelling residue in the first place, time will tell

I havent been in this thread in a long time. I see theres been a name change

I dont use my desktops often, but still have my OG Flowerpot with showerhead bowl. I dont usually use concentrates

Should I be upgrading to weedeater or this baller bowl?

I have both the OG Showerhead and Weedeater, 2 complete systems with different carb caps. I'd say the difference in performance with dry herb is negligible. The kind of carb cap you use makes the biggest difference, try to stay away from the carb caps with only 1 hole, they are too restrictive. I prefer the glass disc carb cap from China that I have recommended here before.

 

[Vaporware]

I only have caps with 1 hole (ShowerHead and VRod) so I can’t compare them to multi-hole versions, but the 1 hole caps work for me. I usually use my FPs uncapped or just cap early on to get vapor going faster and then pull them off, but I’ve experimented with leaving them on too.

I’m sure the glass you’re using also makes a noticeable difference, and I’d bet that a multi-holed version would be nicer overall if you keep the cap on more, but for anyone who already has a 1 hole cap or thinks they’d prefer it, my opinion is that they work well too as long as you’re okay with the level of restriction in the airflow.

I am a little curious to try a multi-holed cap now though…

 

[Chicken No Name]

because I'm weak I've ordered the baller head...... couldnt resist.
Urbanistic in UK are suppliers. I noticed they have sapphire dcup dishes (wish Id ordered from here to save postage and customs) also.
not sure if they supply EU but as I have my best buddy coming over in a couple of weeks he is bringing it over.

Baller Head Assembly

Introduced in Aug-2021 The Baller is the newest head designed for the flowerpot ecosystem. We started with the legendary Vrod head and machined away the inside to accommodate 58 Quartz 4 mm spheres. This design more than doubles the heater's surface area. Instead of the straight air channels...

That missing top plate of the head must have been heavy.

Excited to try my new baller but the weight is dramatically different. 32 grams vs 19 grams for the new baller.

The holes at the bottom are more narrow also, tighter and less circumference. Seems to fit just a tad tighter on my v2 glass bowls too (good thing).

That’s the visual observations…now the fun begins.

Edit - Really impressed with initial results. Lowered power from 632 to 612. Used 5/8 screens instead of the 3/4. The 5/8 fits perfectly top and bottom (I only filled the baller piece with 3mm Rubies). Good tight fit. Pulling hard or soft has no impact now, both temp and abv. Nice and even side to side. Before, if I pulled too hard the middle would dark spot.

 

[The Stray Fox]

192 3mm balls to fill up the Baller Head. I bought two bags of ruby balls from VGoodiez and have 5 balls left over. I’ve been using 3mm quartz balls and wanted something to compare them to. I’m still at 575 and not noticing much difference. I did find a significant difference going from 4mm down to 3mm. I think I’d like to try 3mm Ti balls next.

what are differences youre finding between 4mm and 3mm?

 

[The Stray Fox]

what are differences youre finding between 4mm and 3mm?

With 3mm extraction happen more quickly, a bit darker roast at the same temps as 4mm, a bit more restriction, and you can pull more fresh air without as big of a temp drop.
