Mouthpulling is where it's at!
Mouthpulling is where it's at!
Do you think a 4th hole would ruin the air flow? I'd guess so, otherwise you probably would have made it with 4 . But I was thinking if you put another hole that's offset to match that first one, it might look like an intentional crescent moon design? Just a thought! I think it looks cool either way.
Love that Iroka wood.. Hearing you shaped it by hand with files, and seeing that it turned out so good, makes me want to try making one too. Then there's your Ti colouring updates too.. Great work!
I've had this Ti Woody for 4 months now and just recently started mouthpulling with it. IDK why I didn't do it sooner. Lung pulls are what I've been programmed for my entire life, and that's why I thought the vapor was harsh. Straight lungpulling on the VC w/ the carb covered most of the time was filling the lungs past the threshold before I realized it, making me cough really hard sometimes. But mouthpulls using the same carb technique allow me thick hits w/ minimal or no coughing.. I'm not sure why this is, but it really does make a difference in the satisfaction I get from using this vape. The more time that goes by the more I just love this thing as I perfect the technique.
I also find that hand-grinding the bud is a great medium between using whole bud (great taste, thinner clouds) and finely ground nugs (thick clouds, less emphasized taste). When I hand grind, pack tight, and use mouthpulls, I seem get it all - superb taste, good clouds, very little harshness.
It seems like it's cost saving as it would reduce the machining time per cycle. IMO the 7 fin Gen 4 is much much more attractive than the 5 fin Gen 5. It makes me glad that I still have two brand new Gen 4 tips as they look much more refined and might never be sold again with 7 fins.So whats the difference between the the gen4 and 5 tips..
Do I need a gen5???
Why less fins.. is this cost saving???

It feels like the Gen 5 tip has some identity issues as there's very few visual cues as to whether it's Ti or SS. I find myself mistaking the Gen 5 for the SS M tips. IMO the change has caused a lack of identity within the Dynavap lineup and makes the Gen 5 Ti tip feel less "special" or "refined".

I'm pretty sure that 3x 1,5 mm Dia. carb holes are enough.
Cheers.
I thought about adding several more carbs but tiny ones to create a turbine ...
thanks to your suggestions good guys, I will adapt the "M" SS Tip to a DIY Stem and Mouthpiece... obviously, made of cork!
Sometimes I heat it for like 10 seconds, in the middle area of the cap, nothing happends, no click. Thats when I know its too late and the herb is combusted.
since the bundled pocket sized one is pretty bad quality and smells pretty bad when heated.
I noticed sometimes I will not hear a click if I heat the cap too fast; seems the clickers click so quickly they're almost inaudible. What kind of torch are you using, like how many flames does it have? I would say try turning the jets down as low as they'll go and still reliably light if you haven't already, that might help!
I've been using the 3 flame torch from Dynavap since I received my cap; I did not notice any weird smell. Could it be the butane inside? The only problem I had with the lighter from Dynavap was the sparker was not close enough to the gas vent to light the flame reliably. I just had to bend it a little so the spark arced in the right place and it's been working great ever since! But I can't remember if the lighter came with butane or not, if it did I would have emptied it and used my own so maybe that's why I didn't notice any smell. What made you feel the lighter isn't good quality, mostly that unhealthy smell?
.... New rule - OmniVap for me... M for visitors
Way to go Give your VapCap a good cleaning and put it aside until you get a decent lighter. Then give it a good few dry runs to get familiar with the click. I'd also suggest trying some other herbs - chamomile, mint etc. just for the hell of it but also to get rid of any lingering burnt smells. Also, you can practice your technique without wasting precious weed. Then it's just a question of "practice makes perfect" although I think everbody ends up with a slightly different method - it's like love...you'll recognize it when it happensSuch a potential and I can't use it, because I'm stuck with this rubbish lighter (yes, bic type). I'll throw it out of window before it tries to burn me.
Hey, I got my first VapCap, the M, and I'm struggling. I almost always combust on my second heating cycle, even when I wait for the cool down click.
