Cheap High Quality Bubbler

It's a great piece, so smooth.
Agreed, it's also really versatile. I've been using mine with a Lamart whip, a @Vlad the Inhaler vigreaux stem, and an Aqua Labs mouthpiece (not all at once, I mean, it's not THAT good). I've set it up with a GRAV Phoenix ash catcher used dry. Has a big glass cap that's great for clearing the hit. Really solid nice piece. It's become my daily driver.

And the DHgate version for half the price (though perc not as nice):

I've had my eye on that green recycler for so long. I don't own a recycler and I love the look and color. I thought I remembered asking for another picture before and you mentioned you didn't actually have it, or am I misunderstanding again?

Can anyone comment on the restriction or function? I don't own a recycler so any extra knowledge would be good. I just don't NEED another piece of glass after my GooRoo, but I really like that one every time I see it.

It looks very interesting and might be a lot of fun to see in action, tho it seems a little much operationally and would likely be a bitch to clean. That being said there is nothing like a little whimsy in your accoutre...
For what its worth: I love weed and dabbing, but I'm old with compromised smoker's lungs/throat(cigs for 50 years and joints nearly that long) so I've been on a search for smoothing/filtering/percing glass.
For what it's worth I have to say that my best cooling and conditioning piece of all in my collection is the Goo Roo HD3. It's a very large piece but it works very well.

We should all go in on it just so we can see a function video.
I can't even imagine, this looks like it would be so much fun, until it's time to clean!
Great looking piece. Are there any reviews outside of DH?

I have the non-HD 3pc and I love it. Not quite as cool as the TAG 9 donut, but very flavorful. It looks a lot like the Herbo and Roor vape bubblers; I wonder how similar they are in use? Also, all of those I've mentioned are modular, which is extremely useful. Hope other glassmakers looking to offer vape glass will also consider this option.

Oh, you mean the green fountain incycler from DJsmoke?? Yes I have it, that is my photo of it with the Halo, it is my main herbal recycler! Mine is actually from GGsmoker though they only sell 50 at a time now lol My heady male tentacle rig was from DJsmoke however so I can confirm they are a great seller, very responsive via message and willing to work with you, gave me a little discount since I didn't want a bowl with the rig, helped give me peace of mind when it got a little lost in shipping so that took a while, but it showed up safe and sound! Great quality work, so yeah I can confirm the piece and the seller as very good!

Sorry if I missed your request for more photos, I have posted it in other threads I think, especially the Halo thread, but I also use it with TP80 and TM among others, even works well with FW7, very versatile piece!

The function is fantastic, and as I've said before, it is pretty unique, normally you do not see a piece designed quite like this, it is a unique knockoff of a piece that is no longer made and only these DHgate sellers offer it in this green color now... What is unique is that it has an outer upline tube with a non-funnel shaped klein vortex chamber, this combination creates a great cyclone, the fountain perc has a unique slit pattern for nice diffusion and smooth pull, then the downline tube is incycler style (most other of this style, just have a klein vortex funnel with holes in the sides also incycler, some of them have an outer downline tube, but no other one has a outer up line tube with encycler down tube, that I've seen at least!) With recyclers, it can feel like you are inhaling a bit more with some restriction to get it into the upline tubes, but the perk pulls smooth so I don't really feel any restriction as you are inhaling, the mouthpiece is comfortable as well, in general it is a fantastic balance of flavor and diffusion... And that is what you want out of a recycler really, a lot of bubbling water action but without too much diffusion so you don't kill the flavor, but you keep cooling it, with smaller chambers. This one is a little different because it has a little more diffusion, which I think is perfect for herbal vapes, I'm not sure I would enjoy it quite as much for dabbing? But I think it would work well probably... Because as I said the flavor still shines through very well with the small chambers and excellent recycling action, unique upline downline design etc.

I saw this piece and ended up later getting steered to the GooRoo, which if you'll remember I asked them to make in an greenish woodsy mossy color. That's why when I first saw yours with the Halo on it I took notice immediately, the green and the wood.

I've stared at it long enough, I finally decided to order it. I don't own a recycler so I found justification there! Yours looks a little darker than their photo, it's a different seller but I'm hoping for an identical-ish piece because I really like the look of yours.

As always, thanks @Shit Snacks for your wealth of knowledge.

Ah yes that was you, I remember sharing so many different green pieces haha I do remember you wanted that mossy green and we found it with the GooRoo, I didn't realize you also really like this more neon clear green as well!

Nice! I think there is a little discount sale right now for it even? Just a few dollars... Don't worry about the photo, their photo is identical to the photo that GGsmoker uses on theirs (they carry some overlapping pieces so they could be the same seller really with different storefront possibly as is pretty common) but you'll see how it looks for you in person, my photos only show certain angles and lighting, you really never know until you have it in your own hands and even then it's going to look different in different lighting...

I'm actually not a fan of the color, not a big fan of green in general, I prefer blue and purple, however it is the function of this piece that makes it so worthwhile to me regardless of the color so that is the good news! Mine has some cosmetic color texture on the glass from something with the mold or how it was fired, I did tell them at the time so I feel like you should not have that problem with yours though I wanted to mention it (I believe I did when I posted about the piece originally)

My pleasure to help, again, I'm glad someone else is grabbing this one finally, like I say it is a totally unique design that is very effective in my experience!

What is the purpose of an Upline Rig? What does stacking bubbles do? I’m talking aboutthe ones that look like dumbells.

Those are stacked natural perks, you see it is just an open hole, so you get more diffusion by having stacked natural perks instead of just it being open, choke points to create the bubbles. Generally stacking bubbles refers to, how many bubbles are piling on top of each other, which happens with a fountain or shower head or in line perk typically very much... A natural perk means more chug, possibly more flavor because it has less diffusion (you can create a lot of bubbles with a lot of diffusion like with a matrix perc or gridded inline)

Again thanks for the info. I’m only able to buy 1 more piece of glass. I made the mistake of saying I was done when I bought the B1 and now the wife is holding me too it. She didn’t I meant VAS was done.:lol:

An interesting point about stacking. Cranberry Extract increases the stacking of bubbles in ones glass which is a self fulfilling kind of behavior because you want all of the glass in the can to get wet from the CE so it will keep the sticky from sticking to the glass, which is it's purpose.

Did that make sense, I'm pretty high... :lol:

We call games like this "stoner Legos"
Stoner Legos! Wow! Never heard that but I love it. Patent or copyright it, and you will be a very wealthy person! (lol) Yah, its different than stacking, which is a vertical exercise, whereas "stoner Legos" takes account of all the sceevy looking things hanging off the side, as VapeEscapist ably demonstrates. It requires balance and a high degree of spatial projection. Like I've got 18 to 14 adapter, carbon filter(Grav), ash catcher, various unsymmetrical vapes, etc. hanging off my already multi-perc rig. All in the search for the smoothest and coolest but still most flavorful and stony hits. And I know all too well what happens with a failed or imperfect construction: Bump the table and the whole thing teeters over, maybe falling to the floor, but definitely breaking something, large or small. I now always look for a heavy base when GASing. Stoner Legos!

Anyone have any specific recommendations? Looking at the VEGA Micro Rig and the Green Star, specifically but I will take all recs. The site is a bit light on details too.
Sure, the graphite Vega Micro is an excellent travel bong for your vong. I also love the little Green Star. It has a really nice, smooth action. It's just a little close to you face for a torch vape, too light for a dropdown, and is shut down by a DV. I usually use it whipped to my DBV or hydrabrick.

Edit: Oh! Try the GreenStar with the torch elev8r!

Edit II: If you happen to come across the other two larger artisan pieces, they're worth checking out as well, especially the Halley's. That's a really useful, decent-sized recycler.
