Not really had much of a chance to play with the IH properly as I've spent all day with George, Matt and Ben doing demos for the crowds with a torch.

I've had a great day with little balls of hemp fibre rolled in some excellent CBD wax.

Spain and a lot of the EU are relatively new to vaping and I can assure you they have all been blown away at just how much vapor the VC can produce.

I sat with a guy in the press area and ran a butane powered bowl and was told by one of the staff 'This is a no smoking area'.

Of course we told him it was a vaporizer to which he replied 'But it is so thick, just like smoke.'

For now I can say yes it works but differently to any of the current @Pipes IH's.

It would take me a bit of time to perfect my 'dip til done' technique.

I mentioned to George about the logo size and he said it shouldn't be a problem reducing it along the lines of the new M.

The electronics inside are programmable so people will be able to set parameters to their own particular vaping style.
This will be open source so everyone can benefit from the collective mind of the VC community.

The butterfly power switch is a nice touch and uses a little magnet and pick up to switch the device on and off.

The 3 18650's add a bit of weight but it's no big deal and it sits solidly on a table.

Got another morning explaining to people how to use the VC and then I think we will be heading into the city to sit down and have a meal with the team.

This may not happen as the whole expo has been hectic and anything could happen.

Been great meeting up with people putting names to faces and making new contacts with like minded folk.

@Willy has been a star. His grasp of the English language and his Spanish saw him going from being just a regular expo visitor to being offered a job by a member of the @VapoShop team.
See you tomorrow Willy and yes very tiring have to run bowl after bowl for the people who have never experienced the VC, but great fun.

His help has been invaluable to them and @VapCap.
A true gentleman and even thou we had little time to chat he is a really great guy with a love of the VC.
His enthusiasm shone thru and due to him there were quite a few sales which may not have happened with out his help.

One more day of mayhem and we head back to normality.

@caseball2051 I shall get that info for you tomorrow.

@Whissmu gutted we missed you but there will be other Spannabis's so we will work something out.

I put an idea to one of the Vaposhop guys and I'm hoping we will be able to work something out for another year.
If we can pull it all together I may be able to set up and do some live turning at the event.

That would be so cool & you could sell your wares there &/or create new markets.

phattpiggie, did you find the added spinning grip on the 2018 M to work satisfactorily? And do the enlarged grooves by the carb really help to find it? And please explain what you mean by setting parameters for the IH -- do you mean like setting length of heating time where you won't have to count to say four-one-thousand?

I just gave a family friend an M. He's a 70 yr old hippy and a world traveler who loves to grow and smoke pot. Him and his girlfriend were over for dinner and were curious about vapourizing, so I showed them my vapes. After showing them how the Vapcap worked with the clicks they were wanting to buy one. So I ended up giving them one of my remaining M's that I bought.

They were so happy to receive the gift and I was happy to introduce them to vapourizing.

After period of above normal warm winter temps, it got cold again and the rain turned to snow.

Then today it started to melt again with interesting icicles forming.

But the true sign that Spring is on its way are the first flower buds appearing on my cactus.

Oh and today my @phattpiggie stem arrived. It's a Bocote Open Twist with a Colbalt Blue Glass Condenser and it's matching case. There is enough room in the case for the stem and a small stash which I made by cutting down a Dynavap doob tube. It fits perfectly.

I'm very pleased with this set. Thrilled actually. It is stunning and the wood is smooth as butter. Bocote is a beautiful wood.

I've been testing it out all day......

congrats on scoring one of those stems. :clap: It's beautiful.
Now, I can't say I ever met a wood I didn't like. But Bocote is really a lovey wood. This is my first Bocote anything. The grain is so interesting and the contrast striking. The texture of this hard wood is soft as butter.

There is also something special about the glass condenser. Asthetically, the cobalt glass is striking against the Bocote. The draw is smoother some how, cooler. I'm not sure if it's the glass condenser or that combined with the longer length. All in, this Vapcap measures in at 5 3/8" long. The stem alone is 4 1/4" .

I highly recommend @phattpiggie s stems. They are beautiful, functional art and the workmanship is impeccable.

@Squiby, I would think it was the glass (& I'm sure the extra length to a small degree) that makes the vapor cooler as I think, maybe incorrectly so, that the glass will take longer to conduct heat than metal?

You beat me to the punch, as I did forget to reference in my post the stunning visual contrast between the blue cobalt & bocote; not only in color, but also in the 2 different material textures. This stem is a chameleon: as the lighting changes, she's gonna, visually, present differently. I have no doubt that your gonna get a lot of enjoyment from it.

I'm really liking the new M. I'm going to order a few more to have on hand for 'an M for a friend' birthday gifts of stocking stuffers.

Now i just have to find a few more bud loving friends..... :ugh:
Christmas is months away... but you can put a Ti Omni in my stocking right now :) :lmao: :rofl::rofl::rofl:

I've given a few away myself... should grab another M or two to give away. Might just clean up and give away my old M, I've still got a few glass VapCaps and the 14mm WonG for backup on top of the Ti blackwood which ended up somehow replacing basically everything else for me...

@Summer I will find out the details as to exactly what can and cannot be adjusted. I know the one at the show is on a 15 second cut off timer. I'm assuming this is to help with battery life but it could well be set so it did the counting for you.
Not sure how much control the user would have but I can only ask.
George is a top guy and it's open source to improve product development and user experience he said he doesn't mind if someone goes into the brains of the IH and totally changes the set up as long as they share the info.
After all it is for the greater good.

I've not tried the 2018 M so can't say much about finding the carb. If I get a chance I'll spin it with my eyes shut.


@Whissmu never apologise for your English you want to hear my Spanglish:lol:

@Squiby I'm so pleased the open twist arrived before you left and my guesstimate of a stash size has worked for you. The glass does add to experience and I've enjoyed using the first cobalt one.

@GtrBob a lot of Squiby's pictures are first class but I have to agree with you this one is on another level, truly stunning and as I've said before I appreciate each and every picture posted by my customers.
Even if they have me racking my brains as to who has taken them especially when they post elsewhere using different names.

Last day here so it's going to be busy as...so I'll apologise if now I don't get all the info you'd like.
No sooner had I spoken with George about the IH and I was explaining heating to the click to a young guy from Cyprus then another from Malta and then the Canary Islands and the info was gone.
My ability to absorb and recall is bad enough anyway without the constant bombardment it's been this weekend.

Apologies for font size changes in any messages or posts but my fone has a mind of it's own.

Just seen your likes @Willy it would be good to see you today if you can make it.
