Anybody recieved the blue honeycomb bubbler fom ali express yet? Mine was shipped on the 17th, yet tracking is stuck at 'left office of international exchange' from Bejing...other packages send on later date have allready arrived...Wonder if i should ask 'Kathy' what is going on...

Mine was shipped on the 11th and is the same as yours. I still have 10 days for my delivery date to expire, after that I will open dispute.

The same day I made another order from other chinese site that I trust and where I do a lot of orders that usualy take about 10 to 15 days and it's delayed too, so maybe it's a problem with chinese mail and christmas :shrug:

The claisen adapters I'm looking at are on eBay. They vary in price but there's a couple below $20. Careful with the spacing of the two females, looks like one model claisen is too close to clear a Cloud body. Thanks again for the joint info! Looks like I have some shopping to do. I'll let everyone know how it works. Time to vape.

Edit: this is the one I ordered. $8.99. PYREX #9050 CONNECTING CLAISEN ADAPTER - 19/22
The cheapest stopper I can find is $7.89. Still...$17 isn't too bad. I couldn't justify spending more on accessories than the bubbler cost, so I didn't have much room to work with:D

the only one I found on eBay that would work is 17, then you have to add a glass stopper for 15 so it really isn't 1/4 the price of the cloud buddy, it actually ends up being more than 3/4 the price. That's exactly what I found when I was looking before. If you can find either piece cheaper though and they have more than one I would really love a link to the auction.

Search for seller dqcountry for the stopper. That's greenbuddah's eBay store. They don't take paypal but have one for $7.89.
I was shopping, so here ya go
18MM CLEAR GLASS STOPPER OR PLUG

That's good to know. I've kind of decided against the dhgate one because of the postage costs - still reasonable though. About the aliexpress one, how much do you have to fill it because the entry joint seems to be positioned a tad lower than the percolator itself? Also, have you seen any reviews of either of these?

Those of you waiting on orders from Kathy Hu need to open disputes. I just went through this with "her."

AliExpress wont let this person sell there anymore. My stuff showed shipped for 2 weeks without moving. When I emailed, I was told Kathy was unable to ship the product as AliExpress wont let them sell there anymore. I was given a link to their DHGate store instead.

I opened a dispute which they confirmed in about 5 minutes and Im currently awaiting a refund.

I bought from Wenzhou Denke Electronics Co., Ltd. http://www.aliexpress.com/store/705605 is that 'Kathy Hu' ? :uhoh:

Edit: Damn, just found that it is Kathy... Send a message to see what 'she' answer, but in the DHGate there aren't the same items, not even the one I want. Also the shipping fees in DHGate are stupidly high :(

Daaaayng! Fastest order turnaround from DHgate ever! 8 Days from order placed to my door in Texas. Got 2 gift D020s, 1 honeycomb ashcatcher, and 5 14mm male to 19mm males. All from sunshineglassstore. It would be difficult to fit a screen in the middle of these male to male adapters, but I have been on this rimmed basket screen thing for a little bit, and they tend to hit better anyway, and fit perfectly in any 19mm. Anyway, just wanted to post an experience, 8 day turnaround! perfectly packed and all there. This experience is making me consider ordering more stuff direct from China.... cut out all the middle men.

You can find most of "Kathy's" stuff on iOffer for about the same money. I ordered the 4 disc perc bubbler from iOffer and it was like $2.00 more shipped.

Curious if anybody can give me a suggestion for the smoothest hitting bubbler. Doesn't have to be big, In fact I would rather it be small.

Just interested in what people think make the smoothest Best drawing bubbler, period.

More diffusion = smooth.

These would be my personal preferences. My top recommendation is a fritted disc. After the frit, I would go with a Mobious Matrix. After the Matrix, a honeycomb perc. After a honeycomb, a Showerhead with many slits.

I would suggest a DG mini can.

Thanks.

Any good examples (Link's) of fritted disc bubblers?

Are in need of these reason we priced or is this a higher-priced type of diffusion?

Just note that the extreme frit has a lot of draw restriction. I think the same site offers a dragless version that would be way easier on the lungs.

Usually, a fritted disc is a rather expensive perc because Goldstein was the only one using them, but since others have started to use them the competitions prices have been way lower than Goldstein's.

http://thick-quality-glass.myshopify.com/products/12-dragless-fritted-disc-perc-w-dome-splashguard

That also looks very nice. I would probably prefer less of a restricted draw.

I'm not familiar with who Goldstein is. Are you saying there are others at other sites that are as good and cost less? If so, can you point me in the right direction?

These will be about the least expensive fritted pieces that you are going to find.

David Goldstein claims to be the originator of the fritted disc, although the fritted disc filter has been in use with scientific glass for a very long time. His pieces would be way more expensive than what you will find on Thickqualityglass.

Interesting… just looked up his site. Don't think there's anything there for less than $350. Is there anything that justifies that price? Are they superior products in the way they function?

While it would be really nice to have one of those, the cost is more than I would like to spend right now having just picked up the E-Nano and accessories.

The one at thickqualityglass is also beautiful. I would be very proud to have that - and it's 3 to 5 times less money. It would feel bad enough to break something that costs $120. But something that cost $350-$500 plus... it would really suck to break one of those.
