I use a short sliver collar on a perf cap to retain the heat so the air flow doesn't cool it as fast. It does add to the heat up time in the wand so if I'm doing 1/2 bowls it's more efficient to get a quick hit and short reheat w/out the extra heatmass.
True. In the end though, both methods get the heat in, and with the BallR Cap's convection dominant nature, we don't really need to be in a rush to do it. Getting the heat in faster or slower shouldn't make too big of a difference since the herb isn't really cooking while heating the ball section. So I think it will be possible to get similar results with either, just need to do some more experimentation.
Well, this is just my opinion, but i think the point on the ballr cap is to have a mini ballvape which heat up/cool down faster than other butane ball vapes (keeping the dynavap topic: like the hyperdyn + ball cap).
Oh definitely, I think so too. That's a big part of the reason I wanted one. I was referring only to vapor quality/performance there. It heats up quite quickly with the Firefox, and I expect a triple flame would be pretty quick also. Understandable though if you want to only use the same single torch that you would use on a normal Dyna.
Convection cap?
The the FMJ extends the same amount of heat for a longer period of time, giving you more hits per heating. The Armored cap does the same. The M7 does as well, but not necessarily as easily as the two caps (the FMJ requires a captive cap dedicated to it).
If you want a complete Dynavap, check out the Woodwynd:
The WoodWynd
The WoodWynd brings old-style wood into the future with a sleek titanium design. Explore DynaVap's wood vaporizer, the wood variant of our dry herb vaporizers.www.dynavap.com
It's the most open-airflow vape they've made and it can make big hits, or very nice flavor hits. I would suggest using the Perforated cap with it--this helps open the airflow even more, it's pretty amazing for a DV setup.
Perforated Captive Cap
This vape part provides a different experience for DynaVap dry herb vaporizers by providing more airflow and a longer session time. Upgrade to the Perforated Cap today and enjoy flavorful vapor with DynaVap!www.dynavap.com
Or, if you want to spend less you can use the Perforated cap with the Helix tip on your own stem.
Titanium Tip: Helix
This vape tip made of titanium allows you to adjust the size of dosing from your dry herb vaporizer. Get a perfect smoke with your weed pen. This Helix model of the Ti Tip is very popular.www.dynavap.com
Enjoy!
Yes, it would work!
I'm not sure just what you mean, but it's just a nice looking wooden vape with and adjustable condenser. It comes with the Helix tip which is where the airflow performance happens, especially with the perforated cap.

sure thing!
Yes, it would work like that. I just tried the Helix with the armored cap and the airflow is still noticeably more open than with the M21 and M7 tips I have handy (although the airflow's pretty good with the M7, too). The Helix/AC would certainly be more open than the AC with the older Ms. I got like 5 or so hits with the armored cap and Helix from one round of heating, and about 3 more with a second heating. The Armored Cap will work with an induction heater while the captive cap/FMJ combo won't, but it will retain heat just a little longer than the AC.
I may have to try this.
I gave the SS M7 / BallR combo another go and had a really nice bowl this time. After comparing tip airflows directly with the Unidyn, neither the M7 nor B feel so much more open that they will steal too much air from the BallR cap. So, I decided to try again with a little more preheat to the bowl, and it worked perfectly. I'm guessing this is just differences in tip mass that need to be compensated for with the technique I'm currently using. I'm hopeful that I can get the B tip running well with the BallR also, it would be great with a dedicated half bowl. Which reminds me, after using the Unidyn for a bit now, I've been feeling like its chamber is a little smaller than a standard DV tip, and it is! I held it side by side with a couple other tips earlier. Not sure if this was commonly known already.
I got a couple of nice bowls on the B tip also
Loving the Ballr more and more. Edit time ran out as I was editing lolYou mean Convection cap?

Daaammnn I've been wanting a Vong, but what the hell is this?Ok vas is satiated till 4/20, better get'em while they're hot, they'll go fast!
Should I get one anyway? lol
Absolutely, YES! My favorite DV more or less, use them every day. I have one of these stabwood Vongs (mine is tight but does spin) and I like it and the reg wood Vongs better than the all-Ti ones, fwiw. I think that phrase is a standard disclaimer for wooden sleeve Vongs.
By far my most reached for DV is a wood sleeve VonG as a base. I like the VonG tip. I was just doing some Blue dream in it using the Ballr cap and the Wand on a GVB U-hook.Absolutely, YES!

Each of mine has a different tip on it for a variety of hits/uses. The black tips are standard Ti tips, fwiw, but the Helix is probably the better choice for this. The Ti M7 tip will be awesome with the Vong, but they also still have Vong tips with the coil:
Cap 'N Coil Tip Kit (VonG)
This kit gives you what you need to use concentrates or oils with your dry herb vaporizer. The kit includes a cap and vape coil for a vaporizer bong.www.dynavap.com
Alright that's kinda what I was thinking / hoping. I've been convinced. Grabbed one of the Azuriums with a Helix tip since I don't feel too much of a desire to try a standard Ti tip now that I have a Halo. The black does look nice though. Probably would have gotten a Rosium if I had seen this earlier, but the blue is cool too. I did also snag another Ti M7 tip to mess around with. I have one that I've been using exclusively with a Dynacoil which has been working very very well for me, so I am curious to see how it does with herb and how it compares to the stainless M7, and I think you're right that it would be good for bonging. I'm actually mostly interested in the Vong for the adjustable airflow, since you can tune it more finely than the adjustable condensers, and will probably be using it natively most of the time, but I'll definitely be dropping it into glass more often than I normally do. Not sure which tip will ultimately live on it. May not be a bong / big hit oriented tip, though I do expect the Ti M7 to also be good for slower sessions like the SS version is, so there's a pretty good chance it will either be that or the Helix it comes with. Thank You!
