I always take my wand out after hitting it, and then cork it so I don't accidentally spill any herb. Corks are my DBV's best fwiend

Yay, you guys are quick. Thanks for your replies. Can one make poll's here btw? In hindsight it's more of a poll kind of a question I realize.
Yeah, I read about the getting stuck problem NycD. Kind of a contradict with the falling out problem that others have, ironic.
What kind of poker is that btw, and how is it attached to your Buddha?

That was just the marble pick that is included with both the DBV and the SSV.
Made with a Zebra pen tube, JB Welded to the side of the unit(voiding my warranty, but I didnt hesitate since this is a sturdy vape, I have confidence it will last).

Ah gotcha. I thought the tube was part of the poker at first, great idea. Silly that they void your warranty for that though, it doesn't seem to have any effects on the glass or electronics this way.

ah, well it just shows some JB Weld packaging, some online pic of different sized aluminum tubing, and the users end product.
JB Weld does not comes off. Its actually what is used to attach the body to the base of the DBV, FYI.
I dont really care that it voided my warranty. Even if my unit crapped out on me tommorow, I would still know that it has definitely paid for itself more then once. But I shouldnt say that, if my unit broke tommorow Id be pretty pissed since I need it tommorow ahha

Are you sure the warranty is voided? It's just a cosmetic modification, similar to me putting stickers on mine. At worst you will have to pay for parts, they say the labor is always free even after the 3 year warranty.
tried mine out for the first time last night and have to say I was blown away. I already have the lb and vs but dbv has rocked them easily.
the taste of the first few hits are amazing and I can get about 10 big clouds off .1
It looks for solid and easy to use. I have a bout 4 hits at 11 then 3 at twelve. 3 at 1 and soemtimes more at higher temps. Love it

Hey people, I'm having some problems with my Buddha recently and was hoping some of you could help me out.
I've only had to take the heater cover off a couple times but this last time I took it off, and these two metal pieces slid of with it. The smaller metal peice looks like its been broken or snapped of something else but it's not from the round metal piece and I can't figure out where it went, but the glass cover doesn't fit on tightly enough without it.
Here's two pictures of the pieces that fell off.

Yeah I sent those pictures in an email to the address they gave on Dabuddha.com 3 days ago. Havn't heard back.
Their website is pretty retarded, they have white writing on a white background and the silver buddha being show cased on a white background.. hahaha fuckin amateur hour over there. Not to mention how poorly written most of the blurbs on their site are. But they made a good product. They need to get their shit together... up to par with their product.

ROFL. Wtf are you talking about. i didn't flame anything I stated a fact. They have white writing on a white background, poorly written information, and white vaporizers being modeled on white backgrounds. As a junior in college with no advertising or business background... even I know that's moronic.

Just cranked it up too high you mean. You do have to take load size into consideration at times, but if you're careful with the temp setting it shouldn't be an issue. Cramming a wand full of herb makes it hard to get it all vaped-takes a lot of stirring up and ends up compromising your taste.
@Max
hi there. Ya i was loading up too much,(over half way) and I had the temp high as i was finishing a bowl and trying to get the higher temp compounds. Guess i tried too hard
I love hitting it though. Beautiful taste off first few hits, and get good vapor for the rest. I have not had a j since I got it so it must be working!

One of my friends combusted big time a few days back.. idk what she was doing but she was pulling real slow I guess and I was too spaced out too notice and next thing I know I saw the whole wand full of thick smoke and the load in my whip cherried hahaha luckily got it out and iso rinsed both the wand and the whip and now that nasty taste is gone.
I hate when you let someone else hit your DBV and they fuck it up

combusting with a DBV can be very easy if your not used to using it. and i would imagine its that way with any adjustable vape that goes into combustion temps.
youd be surprised at how much temp change there is within fractions of an inch from the screen to the heater. seriously, even just a 1/4" of an inch closer to (or further away from) the heater can get you well into, or away from, combustion temps. that is why 7th Floor suggests not over packing their wands. and the taste issue that max stated.
basically after messing with my hakko vapes and adapters ive found that even moving your herb an 1/8" away from the heater (even with a good seal) can sometimes change the vapes performance DRAMATICALLY. and if your talking about 1/4"-1/2" difference then forget about it unless you adjust your temp (up or down depending)...
sorry i cant explain it any better right now cuz im

Thanks for the advice guys. I was hittin it way too slow I think. I am too used to the lb perhaps. Im finding that just past 10 o clock is giving me about 13 nice rips off .1g.
Some say that this is not efficient but to me it still is and it has hopefully stopped the urge to combust.
cheers

I did a little experiment using my DBV and a certain amount of bud each time I loaded it. I went through 3 loads, all of the same size, just between .1 and .2, and marked down each time I took a hit.
With that amount, I got an average of 19 hits, this was also going through my mini bong in my avatar. But that really wouldnt add to the amount of hits I can get, so...yea
Use the tool it came with to stir and pack back down the herb every 5 or so hits.
And by a hit, or one hit, I dont mean a tiny amount of vapor, Im talking enough vapor each hit to hold in for 10 seconds and still exhale a good sized cloud. I was really "blowin clouds(of vapor
)" haha
Everyone has a different standard. I defintely think its considered "efficient", just not AS EFFICIENT as some other units....
