I need to figure out how to post pics.

This post might be helpful:

Well in the meantime if this helps anyone, I still find it very simple to do, although it is an extra step going to another website first:

So go to www.imgbb.com on your phone browser, upload photo, select full bb code from the drop-down, select to copy the text in the img brackets like I have above (except include that closing bracket lol) then paste here, post and your photo will show

I use postimg.cc but the principle is the same.

Well shux, I sent pics to 420engineer and the injector is normal.

Hey @ValleyVapes, were you able to find the posts that @Grass Yes mentioned that I (@Zillacon) and @attackpoints made about this discussion?

You can adjust the dial BETWEEN the notches that indicate the level. So if you asked me what lvl mine was set it would be like a 6.3 on the dial.

Find the setting that best works, then fine tune it from there. With the stems I have limited experience as I was not the biggest fan of them...they work, but imo the glass wpa works so much better. I would try giving it a stir if the tunneling/uneven roast is not to your satisfaction.

I know this does not help you in the moment, but look into the glass wpa for a larger load or the dfreeze bowls on insta.

I hope this helps!

uneven roast

This is generally fixed in most vapes like this by moving the herb a little further down the bowl, away from the heater. (smaller load or lower screen or deeper bowl- don't compress the herb)

I’ve been accepted into the Growing equity program in California. Which means I have until the end of the month to get my provisional license app in before the state transitions to only annual. Won’t have time to devote to troubleshooting this til April. Will be so happy to just be able to work again. Thanks for trying to help guys

I notice a hot spot for a couple reasons: too high heat, lowering my dial down to 5.5 has significantly helped. Slowing my draw has also helped. Smaller bowl packs help. But on the bowl pack side, how hard are you tamping, you don’t want to flatten the bud to the point it restricts airflow.

Ultimately though, I accept that I will draw a bit too fast more often than not, so a simple stir after a hit makes the next hit cover anything that may have been missed, or restricted by a tight pack. I generally do one hit, stir, second hit, and that will fully finish a big packed bowl.

 

[letter never sent]

I’ve always had hot spots/tunneling with this vape. Turning down the temp helps, but then it’s usually too low for me. Playing with draw resistance hasn’t really changed much. I kinda just accepted that you need to stir with this vape if you want more even AVB, at least if you’re aiming for quick extraction. The glass bowl especially likes a stir between hits.

Hi all, wanted to try and get some help or advice, does anyone here own a Tinymight along the couchlog?

I started vaping last summer, picked up a big standard first dry herb vape, fast moved onto buying the TinyMight 2 however mind is also thinking about my next purchase. Probably a desktop or log vape and then that’s where I came across the couchlog, is there a huge difference in terms of performance between the couchlog and TM2? Should I looking in another direction?


Any help Hugely appreciated

 

[Zillacon]

Hey @PolskaT, welcome to the CL thread.

Comparing devices is best done under the "Ask FC" grouping of threads. You could make a post specifically asking your question "how does the CL stack against the TM" or w/e.

Take some time to read through this thread as there is a lot of good info on the CL. I can say for certainty this is my favorite log, and the log I use to benchmark other unit's performance.

Cheers!

I agree with @Zillacon that other members and you will be better served with a new thread. Something like "Recommendations for a plugin for a TM2 fan?" or whatever. There are many folks in this thread who have a TM and like it. I think experience with top-tier convection vapes helps in using the CL. A good even draw speed improves the experience, in my opinion.

Anyway I mostly use plugins these days but I do keep the TM in rotation. And the CL is still probably my favorite. It excels at what it does and I really love a 14mm injector. As to how it compares to other vapes, I look forward to sharing my opinions on you other thread.

 

[PolskaT]

Thank you @Zillacon & @Grass Yes for your point in the direction on how best to get advice, I am a relatively new member here and still learning the ropes

Chris at 420 Engineering just posted these beauties:

Haha guilty will try to add them soon

Any chance these will be offered in a matching set....... for those on the edge of pulling the trigger on a Couchlog, but just need a little extra nudge? Asking for a friend.

Sorry, no set planed. But they will fit if the wood is the same

I hope i can add them later. Please note that my buisness partner who does the shipping is on holidays and im only shipping once a week
for the coming month.

thank you for your understanding

On the hotspoting problem from @ValleyVapes .
The controller board is not working properly.
A big downer and were really sorry
Working on it

@Beefcake@420Eng - Nice job with customer service!

and, thanks for helping guide Bud with your tips

heard him give you a shout out during stream

 

[Chris@420Eng]

Pipes are up now. Also added some more SteamWhistles

What’s the replacement options for the glass when they break? I need one of these.

we can replace the glass. its a common diameter.

 

[the_hexx]

We will bring back the budget version with a plastic controller. Price will be under 300€. But were very busy atm.

That reply was from almost exactly a year ago; is this still in the cards?

nobody wanted one
The Log only option will be a thing for the future.
Most people got controllers at home.

This makes sense to me. Although, if I remember correctly the PWM is limited to like 5V? So I suppose people will just have to be extra careful using a 12/24V VVPS. Which is probably normal. I keep my Zenith below that for example.

Anyway, right on. I love the idea of more people getting a CL. It's something special.

What say you @Beefcake@420Eng? What is the minimum and maximum voltage range for the Couchlog when using aftermarket power sources? I haven’t tried my Couchlog with my ATM power module yet but would like to eventually. Thanks.

Amen to that! I might be in the minority here but, as much as I appreciate the craftsmanship and innovation of your controller, the elevated price point is what's keeping me from taking the plunge on a CL. Having the two options would be the best of both worlds.

A lower cost option with a plastic controller would really be ideal for me as well. I love the form and function of this vape, so much great thought put into it. Like you, the price tag is stopping me at the moment.....

Recently took back our my CL after about a month of sitting out due to 420eng direct butane offering.

I love this vape. It is just such a no brainier with the wpa, and chalks bongs so quickly. Still loving my oak, and it is getting a nice patina to the wood closest to the end of the heater.

Yeah, i've been switching things on and off my desk and this pretty much stays nowadays. At first it was it was always through the glass bowl but I have come to appreciate direct draws a lot more, as well as direct with a DV tip/stem. It really could be your one and only vape.

@StoneyBeached, when the logs list separately you can get an inexpensive vvps anywhere, you'll just want to observe the recommended voltage ranges.
