While it ruins the looks A LOT i've seen a few people put a fat mouthpiece over the whole or even some silicone tubing. I don't like how it looks so I just put the digger inline with the hole.

Prophecy has it right with them being the packing container. I did also see on reddit a few users said their

I just bought my first Vong, the 2021 model.
I thought it was all titanium except the cap!?
Also didn't realize that it couldn't be fully disassembled so that all parts (except wood and o- rings) could take a nice relaxing ISO bath.
YET THERE SEEMS TO BE DIFFERING OPINIONS ON BOTH OF THESE ISSUES!?
GEORGE/JOSH, PLEASE WEIGH IN!!!

I don't think there are differing opinions anymore? The diagram in the post I quoted is helpful. You can't disassemble the stem.

Off topic on the new models (still deciding if I should jump in--I have no real need, but it seems like they're including an 2020m so I'm tempted to return my 2020 Rosium and order an omni or vong), but can someone clarify something on the BB9? I ordered one a couple of weeks ago. Two of the beads were stuck up against the little dimples that hold them in "sections" of the stem, even after an iso soak and water rinse. See the attached pictures and note that in the second image the beads in the "bottom" section are still stuck against the dimples. 
POTV was kind enough to ship me another one, but it has the exact same issue. Is this the normal behavior, or did I get a couple from a bad batch or something? I hate to keep making them ship out new ones if this is just the way it works, but it seems like they should all move freely.

Hell yeah, Friday! Father/son camping weekend with old friends. It’s supposed to be beautiful out. I was going to take the HS but it seems less durable than the PSM. Taking the Flite wasn’t even a thought. That thing is way to nice to risk to the camping gods.

Mentioned previously in this thread. I won’t say it’s “normal”, but indeed it’s just the way they are. I bought two of them, put them both in the tackle box. For my WP, I now use clear glass NO bead stems, with no carb.

Genius. I can't believe that didn't occur to me. I think the carb (sorry, George) on the Simrell is really easy to find by feel, since it's the only blemish on a smooth surface, but this will make it even easier.

Thanks. I can't imagine it affects the cooling, so I guess I'll just roll with it. Dynavap's lack of QC is kind of infuriating though...I love the simplicity and effectiveness of their design, but every time I encounter something like this I have to ask myself why I'm ordering from this company.

Exactly, if going through water, those beads are not needed, and as you and many others have discovered, they stick together after a few sessions, and often get stuck after a good cleaning. I also learned that I do have enough lung power left to enjoy NO CARB, on water rig.

Yeah, my intention with the BB was a glass WPA for my woodscents (though the cap fits so loose in the BBs that I'm honestly digging Ed's wooden WPA almost a bit more) and a cooler stem if I'm WFH and want a quick pick me up without powering on and heating the woodscents. It should still serve in both, as I can't imagine those balls being loose or freely moving impact the cooling was my point, its just annoying that on 2 different stems they've been stuck before being used at all.
@Skinku the beads are there in case you use it without a WPA. It cools vapor down substantially more than my vong or 2020m (or even a straight glass piece).

Thanks! Great diagram from Pete.
So...titanium tip, crown and condenser...

U can use a pipe cleaner to knock the beads loose however they will stick again the next time they hit that configuration.

Yeah, after doing that twice, and then seeing the REPEAT, I gave up on those BB9’s.

You're not the only one. I've had two come the same way. I was able to stick a dab tool and loosen 1 of three but the other two are stuck. The glass is so thin that I won't mess with it more. Going to test the new VonG and see if that keeps up. Otherwise maybe the DDave mod but I'd like to see a review on that.

Those old Ti tips come at a premium too now! Last one I saw sold was $55 or 60 with a pretty used cap. TBH I cannot beat it.
Still the best looking one IMHO!

super glad to have one...i never knew that they were sooo sought after......i was under the impression all tips were this bad ass..im just glad to be fortunate to have the one that i have...can anyone tell me if the galaxy glass performs any differently than my wood body?
