I like detachable mouth pieces.
I have a JHOOK (SHERLOCK) that will fit fine!

I need to build more cabinets!
That's another recycling ash-catcher, not a bubbler with detachable mouthpiece. Also, since the return line enters
above the perk, it probably doesn't cycle very well, and I doubt there's even any trace of vortexing. Could be interesting, though, as it's a super low volume option for the end of a j-hook.
Re:"Smokenado"
I was partially expecting some funnel action like a recycler, when the water fell back down.
It won't funnel gracefully back down, as the jets in the turbine are vectored to spin the water. On the way up they spin it one direction, and then it has momentum spinning that way. On the way down, going through the turbine "backwards", the jets are effectively reversed, and try to rotate the water the other way, fighting existing momentum, so no vortex will form, it'll just drain.
You don't tell people how to communicate, buddy.
You do realise that by telling him
not to tell people how to communicate, you're
telling him how to communicate? Or when you said "you", did you literally mean specifically just him, and that telling people how to communicate is fine for everyone else to do? There's no hilarious irony in your statement in that case, I guess, but it's a hell of a claim to make.
Ironic how the reaction is rarely "Holy Shit, I cannot believe how much Corporate America is screwing me on XXX."
Is it simply an American assumption that there is added value to paying more?
I don't think that assumption is purely American. Corporations maintain the market price in "regional markets" at as high as the market will bear, even if they may sell the exact same goods
much lower elsewhere. They spend billions on marketing to maintain the perception in each individual market that the pricing is normal, justified, and even compelling, but it's all ultimately psychological smoke and mirrors. Pricing isn't set to maximise sales, but to maximise either overall profit, or overall revenue, according to current local strategic objectives. There's a lot of mathematical modelling involved to try to determine such pricing per market. Whole buildings filled with round the clock shifts of people doing nothing but collecting and analysing data to determine the pricing that leeches the maximum possible expected revenue from your local market and into the corporate structure.
Shit, retail in Australia, known globally in the industry as "Treasure Island" is just fucking silly. Lots of tech goods, media, books, etc, cost 2-3 times what they do in the states. Want to pay $30-40 for a Blu-ray? Want to pay $2.89 per song on fucking iTunes instead of 99 cents? Come here. They've always traditionally justified price differences because we're an isolated market that's expensive to ship to, but when you're containering stuff in this makes almost no cost difference per unit, and with stuff like iTunes, Amazon and other digital download services for media, there's
no extra cost at all, not even a local office or servers, but they still gouge us simply because they
can, and in international corporate mentality, not doing so would be leaving money on the table for some other corporation. Oh no!
TLDR; if you live in Australia, learn to use a proxy to trick pay sites into thinking you're in the US.
Just a guess, but as we have heard in the news, some Chinese manufacturers are unscrupulous, and use the whatever they can get their hands on, regardless of the consequences.
Because wealthy American corporations with a long history would never take liberties with their customers' safety if it was in their corporate interest! General Motors didn't kill thirteen people by continuously lying to customers for years about their various safety issues until this year's big recall of millions of potentially-lethal vehicles. Wait, they did? Oh. Okay, well, your food industry hasn't been ruined by pushing high fructose corn syrup into anything that needs (or often doesn't need, like bread) a sweetener, or by scaling up portion sizes continuously to move larger amounts of material, regardless of waste or health effects. What? I'm wrong again? Do I need to mention Monsanto, or Big Pharma?
The fact is
some percent of all manufacturers are unscrupulous, and it's the big ones that do the real damage. Often perfectly legally, too. :/
American glass has enjoyed a period of artificially high pricing because people wanted fancy glass and the US was the only place really making such designs. Now that it's becoming a global market, and players with lower overheads are stepping in, things will change. Even the US prices for US glass will drop as it starts to actually have some real competition for once, because once people get used to seeing such lower numbers, it'll influence their value perception of the product locally. I think we'll see a lot more reputable US brands sending production overseas, too, if it means halving their prices (or, more likely, doubling their profits).
Well perhaps my attitude is too lax, but I say go for it!
Yeah, it'll be fine. There'll be more potentially dangerous impurities in some random dispensary shatter made god-knows-how than will ever be released by that nail in a lifetime of heat cycles.
Do get a carb cap with it, though.
I got a bubbler as a gift. I did not post the video here because I do not know the cost, but it is not cheap, I think... it is from elev8 glass.
I post the link so you can see a new type of vortex action, in a recycler!

That's just an ordinary basic recycler, isn't it? What am I missing? Kathy sells a
very similar one for US$22, and also somewhat similar ones for $21 and $23 each.
Your perk has more holes, but never mind the quality, feel the price! It's not exactly a new type of recycler, at least.
though similar styles the DH is 14 and TQG is 18. 
Wish they had more in stock. I like it.
