any retailer accepting paypal still got the M in stock? i cant find it anywhere ;(
Since the M has just been released, I imagine it may be awhile before it is distributed to other retailers. I have heard of George @VapCap accepting "one of" PayPal transactions. Perhaps if you contact them through the Contact page on their website, you can work something out.

Here is the link to the Dynavap website.

Man, all this talk about clicks. My new M clicks louder than any of my other VCs I just cannot imagine this being an issue. I really think that one person who said they combusted a few bowls already should maybe contact Matt/George it simply has to be defective based upon what I have been experiencing.

With my Omni i do not "respect the click" at all. I can do like 5 rounds without ever hearing the click. I go by length of time. I get multiple rounds of flavor hits by under heating. Someone put up the temps and the 350 range was well before the click. Im guessing that is where I am hitting it.

The M uses the same process as the others but it definitely has its own learning curve. The first few days I had my omni I also had huge issues getting it to work. In the end it mostly had to do with me packing the bowl too tight or using too much heat too quick. I also noticed that the shaft of the M can really heat up. The length of time that it stays hot is honestly like one minute. I counted twice. You know how many hits I can take in one minute? :)

I really like the M body and realize I probably should have gotten the titanium body with my omni. I covered the carb on my omni with tape. Now it looks cheesy with a piece of tape on it.. oh well. It works amazing.

^^ this and also maybe give a few seconds after cool down click before reheating . Did you hear 2 cool down clicks ? Maybe you reheated before it completely cooled . I think a few times mine hasn't clicked , but I'm so I. Tune with it that I can catch it , get my pull, and avoid combustion. Just don't get frustrated and keep working with it until you just naturally know when it's time to pull..

That's what I was thinking, @MinnBobber did you wait for the cool down click? Ive let many people try my Vapcap and I notice it's easy to get buzzed and forget about the cool down. It happens, especially if you're new to it.

I'm so used to lightly touching the end of my cap with a finger to gauge temperature to double check. I haven't really read of anyone doing this but it works for me if I need to check where it's at on the cool down.

People commenting on the M stem heating up during use reminded me that my SS core stems also heat up during condenser free use. It's nothing to be alarmed about, but it can get warm. I notice it most when I use my slim stem.

Perhaps it's the vapour profile that they're attracted to, I know that that's the big selling point for me. The way the vapcap produces vapour is unique and different than what a continuously heated vape offers.

There's also a huge stealth factor that makes it look far less like the user is heating a "Crack pipe". It's the most common negative comment about the vapcap that I get. It bothers me that people have that image stuck in their head but that's society:shrug:. I think that a battery powered heater would drastically improve the stealthiness of this already discreet vape.

A vapcap is always a vapcap in my eyes no matter the heat source.

Exactly what I think!

In windy conditions or in public places where it is not cool to look at you with a blowtorch in your hand, it would be very interesting to have an electric heater that will fit the Dynacap.
Even situations where you can not look at the flame, like under a table or driving a car (even riding a bike!)

I have the TI OmniVap and put a small piece of transparent tape on the carb hole to keep it closed completely.
That way I don´t need to take care of how to hold the Omni to have the carb closed and can use it exactly like a cigarette or joint.
And on the TI body you don´t see the tape at all.

And all the talk about technique and stuff, I can´t understand how someone can make anything wrong with the Vapcaps as long as you follow the simple instructions.

When I received my Omni first thing I did was to put the TI body, condenser and tip together, made a sandwich filter with hemp and two screens, put some weed in it, cap on top, heated with the quarter flame torch I ordered from Dynavap woth the Omni, waited for the click and enjoyed.
I did not even think about what I do because the Omni (and the other Vapcaps as well) are so simple and understandable made that they basically explain themselves how to use it.
No learning curve at all, I did not combust one single time in about three months since I own my little friend.
In my opinion these things are foolproof as long as you don´t overheat and wait for the cooldown click before you heat it again.

There´s really not much you can do wrong with such a simple device.

I have been using a triple jet torch since I got my first VC, a year or so ago, with a change in technique I get short 3 click bowls or long 9-10 click 'sessions'.

It's all a matter of practice, some of us will have common ground with either spinning, number of jets, ripping or grinding.
All of us being individuals will achieve the results we want maybe just in different ways.

Some people get it and take to the VC with ease and others may find it a bit more tricky.

My only advice for those who need a bit more time is practice empty until you are comfortable with your technique.
Use another vaporizer to get you in the correct mind set before hand, perhaps.
If you can use any other manual vape, battery or gas, then you will be able to use the VC.

My tinnitus isn't bad enough to stop me hearing the click but I can understand how this steepens the curve. Videos may help, watching someone else in 'real time' could be an idea?

I've not done any with the new tip but will try and get something together.

Here's a spinning one for now.

Had another go at this design, again in Walnut, it's bone dry after being moved from one place to another for the best part of 15 years. Too dry really.
Not got it where I want it yet but it'll come.

That Walnut looks pretty but very fragile as well with the way the grain is. "Handle with care"?

What is the practical difference between the Ti and Steel CCDs? Are the former more durable? Can the steel ones be used in a Ti tip, and vice versa? Do they have the same cutouts and therefore airflow? This has been asked before but I have never seen the answer. Sorry if I just missed it.
OK, while I hate to interrupt your workflow, @PAVANYD , I really would like an answer on this before I place my next order, now that I have both SS and Ti tips. I would ask in email but I don't think I am the only one who wants to know. ;)
Okey Doke I'm gonna try this one more time. @VapCap

Random question that just popped into my head: has anyone who ordered vapcaps directly from Dynavap and lives in Canada been hit with import taxes?

My cart is at $280 USD right now and I'm guessing if they declare the full value I would be hit with $50+ in import taxes.

@phattpiggie, wow very interesting design! Very nice, it looks like an alien artefact, maybe Predator's future vapcap? :D
I'm eager to see the final result!
Could you feel the heat coming from the condenser?

I like how you are always coming with something new and original that will amazes us!
:clap:

@Winegums It was only for practice so I can try and get the right pitch and file size, I'd rather be trying it out with a piece of wood like the Walnut as it files real easily.
Any final pieces will be Blackwood or something similar in strength and density.

@Squiby it's a Black and White Ebony one I did a while ago.

Split the order in halves, each should be below their set maximum; savings in fees should offset the extra
postage.

There are alternatives. :myday:

I am in Canada and have placed several orders with a similar value to your cart. They have never posted the full value and I have not ever had to pay customs fees.

Your purchase is safe with Dynavap!

I have noticed no difference in the two screens. I'm not a big fan of titanium at high temps (possibility of titanium oxide if over heated) so I use ss with no problem. I believe they do bend easier so I use the bolt and screw method to seed then in place. Dynavap had stated a while back that they changed the look of the titanium screens, but I doubt there is any real difference. Different strokes, ya know..
Good luck.

OK, is there such a thing as a faulty clicker?
Are there supposed to be 2 clicks for heating and 2 for cooling?

Mine absolutely/positively only has one click each direction and the heating click is like 1/5 the volume of the cooling click and the heating click has almost no vibration.
- I get the one faint heating click after about 4 seconds of triple torch. I continue for another 3 or 4 seconds and no second click.
- when cooling I have the unit up to my ear and get a little scratch noise/almost imperceptible, followed a second later by a nice volume pop AND and nice big vibration.

With the one cooling click I see/hear/feel what it should be like but the heating click ain't even in the same ballpark for noise and vibration. I need a seismograph to feel the single heating click.

Frustrated so far...

Could someone please verify there should be 2 clicks each direction??
And should the heating click(s) be as big as the cooling clicks?

Thanks

second click is redundant, sometimes mine does it sometimes not, often I don't pay attention. As long as you have the one click you know when to stop or start. I remember back when I started reading this thread there was mention that these clicks eventually will get louder or lower with continued use? Anyway just want to point out whether or not you get that second click is unimportant.

Gotcha. I'd go a bit thicker for safety. I'd hate to see a beautiful piece like that broken.

It might be really cool if you were to cut the spiral then cast it in resin so you could see the spiral and tube. That would be a lot of work though and could end up as a sticky mess/ waste of time.
