hello,
I received my Dani from BFG a few days ago and have had time to use it a lot in the last few days.
I have the wooden version with a built-in condenser and a spiral intercooler. I also reveived a metal one for a friend and both are really well made (13cm and 45g). The wood unit is graceful, I'm impressed by the beauty of the wood!
The bowl is bigger than the dyna, it's the size of the Anvil XL bowl (+/- 0.17g).
The cap can be screwed on, it's practical. It can be screwed on very easily but the handling is difficult when hot because the magnets don't work with it.
It seems to have a wide use curve because respecting the click with it gives light and terpy hits.
It's also possible to approach the line, which is what I usually look for.
The ROnx is very suitable for the Dani's needs with similar setting as the Anvil use.
For the 1st heat, I aim for the tip of the blue flame at the bottom of the silver ring and go past the click of about 7sec.
The hits are heavy (3 to 4 before the click). It takes about 35/40sec.
I go past the click by 3sec on the 2nd heat which is much faster and there I finished the bowl in a few hits too. The AVB is brown and uniform.
I enjoy it.
As a comparison, if I had to take as an absolute criterion the production of vapor, I would place Dani between the Dyna+Fmj and the Anvil which remains, in my opinion, the most powerful in its category!
For its impeccable quality, its performance and its very affordable price, I think Dani has a bright future ahead of him, a new bad boy in the game!
I already had the opportunity to tweak a trick to manipulate the hot cap, it's a small leather ring very practical : you pass it around the cap, you pinch, you unscrew.
I also made a leather sleeve to carry it safely, the same shape and size as for the Anvil XL (but with a leather ring instead of a magnet)
I find the draw a bit restrictive and the mouthpiece a bit too wide for my taste. I added the Stinger, it's magical!
