So they work then? ; )
Oh yeah... they work. A little too well 😁👌

Can't thank you enough for the Da Buddha rec. Who would've thunk it? It's 50/50 reach % with my Couchlog. Much respect.

This year is proving to be an embarrassment of riches. Super excited for my Solo 3 on the way! Coming full circle back to the modern version of my first ever vape. I've got my endgame desktops for a while. Counting on the Solo to rise to the top of my portables.

Looks amazing!

Glad to share the happiness! I'm glad you took the chance on it, and more so that you're really enjoying it. It's such a great vape but has some serious competition these days, hopefully others will consider too.

Nice, man. That sounds like the return of an old friend. Hope it's even better than you expect!

I agree. Such a clean, tasty and powerful vape. Easy maintenance too.

Thanks! It's a great time to be a dry herb vaper.

So I just scored a used da buddha on ebay for around 40 €. Only downside is it is just the unit itself. No mouthpieces or whatever it needs to function properly.
What do I need to get started?

Does it have the glass heater cover included? If so all you technically need is the conical wand and hose. I'd add a mouthpiece, a water pipe adapter of the appropriate size, and the stir stick with the marble.

If it doesn't have a heater cover, or if you want to supercharge it, get the baller heater cover and the balls, that will transform it. The other pieces remain the same.

Edit: @Likun, you may be able to use it before that stuff comes if you have an adapter or something with an 18mm male joint, a basket screen, and something to join the joint to to use as a mouthpiece: hose, j-hook, downstem, etc.

Basically if you can shove a basket screen into the 18mm male joint, you've got a bowl and you just need some way to draw from it. You'll see examples of hacked together wand/MPs and j-hooks in recent posts.

I don't know if your heater cover is the female 18mm type (like mine) or the conical one.

Here's a picture of my current setup. This is along the lines of what @coolbreeze was saying. The male part of the 18mm elbow adapter is fitted with a screen and acts as the bowl and the mouthpiece is a dimpled standard 18mm so you can uses straight glass pieces instead of a whip if you like. I find it tastier and easier to clean.

All the glass parts can be sourced cheaply off places like DHGate. I think the links are just a few pages back.

Edit: Btw, if you can get the baller upgrade as @coolbreeze recommended, it turns the vape into a powerhouse. You can see the rubies inside the glass heater cover in the picture I linked.

And here's another. This is an 18mm male to 18mm male angled adapter with a screen in the grind and a basket screen in the end clipped into an 18mm female elev8r wand for direct hits:

I've been turning up to noon and ripping through a large Klein recycler and the hits are cool and enormous! Whatta vape!

Thanks guys for the great replies!
I attached an image of what the unit looks like.
I'm really curious in the ball mod.

Unfortunately there aren't many options to chose from in Europe, when it comes to accessories. I've found only two sellers with some accessories in stock.
Do I need this kind of glass attachment? https://vaporisateur.net/accessoire...eater-enhancement-tube-ssv-sup-dbv-elev8.html
Unfortunately there is no explicit Da Buddha Ball Mod available, only for the Silver and Super Surfer. Are they by any chance compatible to the DBV?

Ah, nice! Those are the baller covers, but not for the Da Buddha, unfortunately. The size differences make them incompatible. If you're able to order from the UK, RVS has them:

They may have the hose and wand, too. I did find these:
and hose:

If you can't order from England or the US for some reason, the other gear will make your DBV fully functional, and indeed, will be pretty dang fine as is.

Perfect, thanks for the link. I'll order from UK then.
To use it with the silicon hose I need just some 18mm male to hose adapter? sth like this

Where would I pack my herb? Just put a screen inside the 18mm male joint and then the herbs?

That would be the other end of the hose; you would insert the ribbed part into the hose and the ground connection into your waterpipe. You can also find 14mm ones, etc. For the other end of the hose, the end where the weed goes, you need one of these:
or these, if you want color:

Edit: just to be clear, you could indeed put a screen or basket screen into that ground joint and use it as a bowl in your DBV, BUT the hose would probably get warmer than you'd want.

OK I get it now. I thought that was just some optional mouthpiece. Allright then I know what to get. Thanks so much.
One more question, do you know what diameter hose I need? I still have some of my volcano hybrid laying around which I guess is 10mm outer / 8mm inner diameter.

I'd get the actual elev8 hose, it's more neutral flavor-wise:

Setup:

One tip not shown in the vid: use a med/course grind and use the marble on the poker to lightly tamp your herbs to keep them from falling into the heater.

Salut, vu que tu regardes vaporisateur.net je suppose que tu es en France. J'ai acheté le Glass Whip de chez eux pour une config "tout verre".... c'est franchement pas mal. Il rentre directement sans adaptateur dans le heater cover. J'ai juste galéré pour y insérer une grille. Celles du da buddha sont trop petites et ne se coincent pas. J'ai pris une du Elev8r que j'ai un peu découpé.
