Is anyone using a good, compact water attachment mouthpiece with the 2.5 that they could recommend?
@OF - Curious if you're using the TCR mode on your Pico.
YES! This is what I wanted to talk about, drag the thread back into last week.
This is what I'm using, the straight, generic mini bubbler as previously shown, and also the aquamizer, which is the best compact mini bubbler that I've used to date. I'm happy with them, but I'm looking into different bubblers as well.
And, of course, both of these pieces are intended for the old school micro-skillet glass globes, and aren't a direct plug-in with the DT 2.5, but a simple slice of 5/8" tubing can connect the two parts firmly. I can pick these up by the glass piece with the mod attached and swing it around a bit, the parts won't separate or fall apart.
The tall skinny glass bubbler is virtually spill proof, can be held at any angle or laid down and won't spill water if not overfilled, but it's airflow is a bit more restrictive.
The aquamizer is not as spill proof, you want to keep it upright or laying not close to parallel to the ground. if you lay it flat or spin it around upside down with water inside, the water can travel up the downpipe and into your atomizer and wet your bowl...and a bowl loaded up with concentrate AND h2o...
not good!
I still like the aquamizer better because it has more airflow and can deliver larger, chalkier hits with greater ease, and it doesn't clog as easily, but I only use it in "safe spaces" due to the larger size and spilling hazard (not while driving, walking around, etc.)
I have been using this thing for years with the dt attys. I actually never dry hit the dt attys. This is what I use when I'm out and about, mostly in my car because it's not that discrete. This may not be the most compact bubbler, but it percolates well and never clogs
Cool, this is what you were trying to show me earlier but your pic didn't work. I'm just wondering exactly how you adapt this one to the DT: you have the old 2.5 mouthpiece jammed inside the 18mm female joint and secured with extra o-rings from the base?
If that's how you're doing it, my questions would be:
1. how secure is the connection between the atomizer and bubbler? loose? tight? can you pick up the whole thing by the bubbler?
2. is the whole thing spill-proof? can it be laid on it's side or upside down without spilling the water?
3. what is the maximum tilt you can hold this thing and still get good percolation and airflow? 45, 60 degrees?
4. how tall is this piece?
Nice find. Is anyone using an even more compact water tool on their 2.5?
I'd like to see that....
I think steven has got us all beat in that regard
This is probably something ur looking for. U need to use a silicon adapter on the 2.5 mouthpiece onto this to make it work. But be warned, these type of vape pen bubblers clog very very fast. There are even smaller, slimmer styles out there, but they clog even faster
I have seen these, and am interested in trying, but I'm trying to compare to the nibblers, still. Hard to find specific info on those. What you are showing here, is intended for the micro-skillet glass globes, correct? Could easily be adapted to the 2.5 base then.
My 3 questions from above would apply here as well
If it does clog, it's quite easy to iso rinse it.
Yea, whether the bigger or smaller bubblers, clogging is no big deal. Just a little alcohol and salt also if you like, shake, rinse, repeat if necessary. Depending on what bubbler and what kind of material I'm vaping, I could go through a quarter-half gram on a bubbler before it needs cleaning.
I like the factory WPA actually. I use it with my 'Infamous Bubbler', now sadly no longer available? The offset allows seeing both the vapor and the display on the mod.
I've used the PNWT (or 'F-Bomb) and smaller bubblers like this one:
Or even this one:
But I keep coming back to the factory offering.
Yes I am using TCR with the Pico. Same as with EVC Mini, Cuboid, RX200, and iSmok TC100W all of which seem to use the same basic 'chip set'. Set the same an atty performs the same on any. IMO a big step up from VW mode.

The pear bubbler is the same thing that steven is showing, correct? The second one is about the same thing I am using.
By "factory WPA" you're referring to the little glass elbows that connect the 2.5 base to a 14/18 M/F connector? Not for on-the-road use. Also I didn't like these little pieces as much because they forced you to hold your mod or your rig at an angle (not good for splashing or oil pooling) and the globe isn't very big for vapor expansion and our viewing pleasure.
I wanted a small water tool for on the go, so I want to keep it simple and as solid as possible, no adapters. I need to look at wax pen alternatives that are direct fit for these small mouthpiece bubblers.
No smaller than what has already been shown here, my fellow bubbler seeker.
If there is more out there, I want to see it! I'm still looking into the nibblers. If you want to eliminate adapaters, you eliminate nearly all possibilities.
Since the DT 2.5 atomizer with a TC mod is so far superior to nearly any competitor out there in the class, I'd rather adapt the existing possibilities of bubblers available to work with the DT, rather than force myself to downgrade to inferior vape equipment just to have a greater choice of water bubblers and easier attachments / connections between my atomizer and glass.
