Sorry, I don't think I understand what you're saying, yes I took the FW7 apart so I could clean the underside of the chamber properly, along with the ceramic vapor path in the WPA (that piece is removable in fact) and yes you are correct, the chamber is always easy to clear each hit, letting go of the button and continuing to draw until there is no more vapor or heat... So yeah I do not remove it from the male joint in use, I pull the entire FW7 off of the hook to pull in some fresh air after I have cleared the vapor, leaving the male to male adapter attached in the WPA... I'm not sure what you are getting at about wearing down the WPA? I don't think there is any danger there regardless? However, this brings up, I was looking at a 14 mm male mini bubbler specifically to use it with my FW7 and not needing an additional male to male adapter, turns out this particular mini bubbler may only be available female now after all, so I won't get to try that out perhaps, but I still like the idea of it and don't think there is anything to be concerned about really? Anyway yeah it is sitting dismantled airing out now, always best to clean it this way, it's unfortunate that my original beta is fused to the WPA so I cannot clean it fully in the same way...
Edit: I thought we were in the FW thread! My apologies, that's why I was confused, okay yeah so I get what you're saying, if I have a male joint version of that bubbler I will be removing the FW7 from the male joint more, that is certainly a fair point, I don't think there is any risk really though, but I agree it's something to consider, thank you!
