Not 100% sure about this because I don't own an M , but I've heard the if you remove the condenser there is an o ring that sits between two grooves . If you move this o ring in either direction toward one or the other grooves , it will change the air flow . Again , don't hold me to this since it's just hearsay , but it's worth a try.

My Mind Is Free
Hey guys, I know this info is probably buried somewhere in this long thread, but I was curious about a couple things:

My OG Glass condenser is tapered at the tip like the tip of a pipette or dropper, and it developed a small crack in the tip, so I went to go look at spare parts for the sale, and see that the standard condenser pictured no longer has this tapered tip, but is cut to be a straight tube. Will this still work for my OG glass body?

Second: Am I able to just throw on a Ti tip to my OG setup, or do I need to get a new body if I want to use a Ti tip?

Third: How are folks liking the "M," in comparison to the rest of the offerings?

Fourth: If you could only pick one choice, which would it be?

Thanks to anyone!

Regarding airflow restriction and the carb hole, I've managed to mover the inner o-ring a bit fartther down the condenser so that the hole works like closed at all time. I think that this is the only way to get some proper clouds.. Otherwise, with the hole open there is much airflow that you can't really get a thick one...

I managed to put the o-ring that way only by inserting the condenser from the tip-front, having only the inner o-ring on. After inserting it, then I can plug the other o-ring at the beginning of the condenser. I'm doing the same for the nonavong and with that kind of setup hits have just become even tastier without having to find the hole each time...
And now I'm thinking of ordering either another M or even an OMni.. although I'd prefer the M, price-wise.. and save some extra bucks for some parts and/or accessories.. ohh boy... this little vape is soooo sexy... When I leave it plugged on my ashcatcher, it looks as if it is a monster 4x4 truck with the exhausting pipe that goes upwards, so that no water goes in... mind orgasm... just loving it!!!!

with a quick search... sth like that... more or less... but I think that you'll get the feeling.. :science:

Can the OMNI Condenser Assembly with Mouthpiece be adaptable on a Stem (so XL condenser) ?
There does not seem to be an XL version of this
You can switch out the Omni condenser for a non Omni XL condenser which will accommodate any stem and a spinning wood mp. This becomes an Uni XLS model.

Or, you can switch out the Omni condenser for a regular non Omni condenser which will accommodate any stem only, no mp. This then becomes an Uni model.

Although a few folks have a custom XL Omni condenser, it is not yet available to the public but may be released in the next few months.

I went to go look at spare parts for the sale, and see that the standard condenser pictured no longer has this tapered tip, but is cut to be a straight tube. Will this still work for my OG glass body?
Yes it will work. The tapered OG condenser was replaced with the straight condenser some time ago.

Am I able to just throw on a Ti tip to my OG setup, or do I need to get a new body if I want to use a Ti tip?
No. The OG vapcap does not have the same modularity of the Ti Tipped Vapcaps. The only part that can be used from the OG Vapcap is the temperature indicating cap. (And you can use the soft mp on any Vapcap for use with a 14mm water joint).

If you want a Ti Tipped Vapcap, you need the following parts:
- Temp indicating cap
- Ti Tip
- Stainless Steel condenser, regular or XLS
- A Stem or Body and wood mouthpiece depending on the condenser chosen.

Just buy a Ti Tipped model that appeals to you and from there you have a fully modular Vapcap that you can switch up in any way you please.


If you could only pick one choice, which would it be?

I would pick one bouquet of Vapcaps…:leaf:

Seriously? One choice? I would get the all titanium Omnivap.

Hello guys and girls,

I haven't jet received the M from the previous sale, but today I ordered a Uni.

I.....Just.......could.....not.....resist.

I know this has been asked before, but I hope someone can give me a quick answer.
Can I use ss screen in Ti tip or do I need a titanium screen?
Also, can I use the hemp filter sandwich mode with one titanium and one ss screen?

Thank you

Been using an OG vapcap for a month after hearing the positive comments on this thread and I am sorry to say that I don't like it at all. I've tried different techniques and different torch lighters (single, double and triple flame) but this thing COMBUSTS way too easily, taste is only average and needs cleaning daily.
Can anyone with more experience of this vape tell me if there is any difference with the newer titanium vapcap in terms of combustion/flavour or should I just forget it if I don't like the OG?

I've been switching between the glass OG and the M, and I have found the glass is way more sensitive to combustion over the thick metal of the M. If I heat just a little too long, or just a little too low on the cap with the glass model, I get burned. With the M, so far, I've only had one instance where I overheated it, and charred the load, compared to the many times its happened with the glass. I don't have any experience with the titanium model.

Straight up, if you're combusting you are heating it wrong or not respecting the clicks. Use the softer inner flame. Evenly spin the Vapcap. Heat closer to the tip for lower temp.

Hopefully my 'M' should be here any day now, in anticipation do I need to clean it when it arrives or can I use it straight out the tube. If I do need to clean it can everything be soaked in iso including the o rings and cap?

Clean it!
I cleaned my M with iso and a pipe cleaner before using it and at the end of the cleaning the pipe cleaner was BLACK!

Hey everyone. Im searching the thread for some really easy to follow advice on how to safely and reliably remove the orings on the tip for a soak.
But the search feature is not revealing any info.

Quite a few people have asked about this recently with no response.

I cant find a video on this either by George. Surely a good idea at some point?

I have iso soaked my whole Omnivap 2 times without removing any orings, and no issued, but some have reported issues, and many are warning against it.

I am going to order M's for several friends. They are all vape clueless, and I am really having to talk them into this. They are all poor too.

I feel like I will have to soak or clean each device before handing over. So I dont want to mess up the orings with a soak. Or split them trying to remove.

Can anybody please direct me to an approrpriate post about this?
I am thinking I should get some beeswax to reinstall all the orings. I dont want to mess anything up.
None of my friends will have any extra cash for spares, except maybe some screens, and I am sure they will be deterred completely if I tell them they need to get extras. They are struggling to find the money just for the M.

Or do you think soaking the M's in hot soapy water with orings on will be good enough,for a pre-use clean up?

Thank you any advice.:tup:

The metal tips will be far less sensitive to hot spots and combusting. I find it hard to get things burning with my Ti tip if I stick to the clicks. I might get a little bit of charring on a crumb of weed here and there but it's nothing serious.

---------------------------------

If I could get only one VapCap it would be a Ti Omni XL W/ a 14mm steelcore VonG stem. (Isn't that a mouthful?).

More and more I'm finding that I want a longer stem for direct use and a 14mm taper for my water pieces.

@Haunts I used the OG immediately, and it tasted a bit...mechanical. After cleaning it tasted much better, without any industrial taste. I did the same with my M. My advice: Clean it, but don't soak the o-rings in ISO. I read lots of posts where people don't recommend it.

Yes, I read if you soak it with Orings in the ISO the o-rings will break down in time. And i also read people that tried to remove the o-rings break them in the removal process. So its kind of a Catch-22

Question. My M has way more draw resistance than my OG. It feels like I'm trying to get thick milkshake through a very narrow straw. It takes much effort to get a hit. Does anyone has the same experience with the M compared to the OG?

Wow, if i had read that earlier I probably would not have bought the M at all since I am happy so far with the performance of my OG Glass for $35. Oh, well. Its good to have a spare dynavap in case the main one gets misplaced or broken.

Wow, I dont know how to respond. I have been using the OG glass vapcap for about a week, have never combusted with a 3 flame torch (But I always stop at the click). And I havent cleaned it even once yet. I dont see anything brown as of yet on the glass after 1 week. I smoke about 1 full chamber per day

...........................................................................................
I cleaned my new M with hot soapy water (DAwn dish detergent is excellent for grease). The purpose was to remove any machining oil. I always try to go with "lowest level" first as Dawn will definitely not damage any M parts like plastic/rubber o-rings. FYI, I cleaned in a bowl and found a tiny tiny SS burr, like from the carb hole being drilled.

As a less harsh option vs ISO, I also use PBW (powdered brewery wash) for major cleanings. Great for all metals. plastics, rubber except anodizing. It bubbles the crud away and seems to work great for removing "nasty combustion smell" --don't ask :)

EDIT: does the M even have a C-clip to hold the SS screen in??? I have not removed mine yet.
Thanks

I've been reading people combusting and/or having issues with the restricted airflow.. I don't own an OG to know the difference with the M, but the M itself has a notable restriction, not to the extent that is really hard to get a milky hit or so. It depends where you're torching the cap. The lower you torch it the denser the hit, I reckon. Another important role is the part of the flame that you're "licking" the cap with.. The stronger the flame, the quicker + toasted the hit.. So playing around those combinations will eventually lead you to your "sweet spot". Personally, I like heating the cap quite a lot while respecting the click at all times... This should probably be the one and only rule that you must follow so that you never combust... Therefore, since I won't hesitate heating my cap intensively, I'll manage to get 3 hits through a normal load. Someone was saying about 6-7 hits out of a single cap. I don't think that I could ever get that. Especially if we're talking with 6-7 vapour-visible hits as well.. Still though, being able to get 3 decent hits through the tiniest bit of flower you can load it with is a big thing... is almost revolutionary I'd dare to say...

How bad is the Greek legislation?
well, it's still bad.. you can get busted for few grams.. nevertheless, medical marijuana is getting a closer look at the moment and it is said that it will be legalised within the next month or so.. that will definitely be an amazing turn on the whole issue.. How's things in Italy with the medical? Are u guys considering such things?

Is the wood on the right hand side amboyna? It's freaking gorgeous. Currently waiting to chat with VC about a custom order. So pumped.

This was a picture of @vapen00b 's stunning Vapcaps. The stash is Bicote. On the right is a,Ti Woody XLS with an Amboyna Burl stem, and on the left is a Ti Woody XLS with a B&W Ebony stem. Both have Burl mouthpieces, I believe.

So you want to clean up the parts n pieces. "Smoke Soap" from 420 Science works to soak and always triple rinse after any soaking. If cleaning after combustion, coconut milk rinse to remove the burnt taste. It won't degrade the o-rings.
I use "Rez Block" in my water tools. Keeps them sparkly clean.
I used fine grit emery cloth in the tip end of the "M" body, (stem?) end to ease the inside corner edge. Deburring is not easy on parts that small. Sometimes you need to give it some help. After doing this it is easier to assemble. It doesn't catch the o-ring on the way in.

An old pipe smoker's trick, Use nose oil, (sebum), to assemble the pieces.

It is important to remember, your experience with the VapCap system is going to be different from EVERYBODY else. No one else will have the same way of using these vapes. Some people like cars, some people like trucks. Me I just don't want to walk. Doc

Here's what works for me......I never take the o-rings off. I have spares if they break, but the way I see it is that good silicon rubber is pretty ok with ISO. But still, I keep my soaks to about 10 minutes, then straight to hot soapy water which gradually I turn into a cold water rinse. That to me is the best way to rid as much of the gunk and debris as possible without turning it into a chore. Then I add some beeswax to any part that needs some fitting, including the o-rings and and the outer ring of the condenser x-rings. Hell, one time I didn't have any beeswax at the location I was at, and just dabbed my finger in some canola oil (I figure oil that will take a 350 degree fry can handle the task). So far, every disassemble has been smooth. Always remember to go slow an be gentle, and if you can, do it first in the morning, straight.......yeah, right:-)

Thank you very much for the info. Looks like the amboyna stem has a thicker crown too. I dig it!! That VC is drop dead gorgeous!

Regarding standard vs xl..... I see lots of VC users sporting the xl. As someone with fairly large hands I am wondering if I should go for a woody xl instead of a standard Omni, since I can't get an Omni xl :( . Anyone have any input?

I've owned at least 5 OG's, and I was able to compare the 7 different M's I received. One thing I can say with the OG is that the tolerances of the caps fit have a noticeable effect on the restriction with the carb closed. Some will be more free-flowing than others. I personally feel the grooves on the SS tip let in more airflow than the OG, and seem more consistent. It's less restricted than my Ti as well, but I have the Gen 3 tip, right before they made the wider helical grooves for better airflow.

Someone was saying about 6-7 hits out of a single cap. I don't think that I could ever get that. Especially if we're talking with 6-7 vapour-visible hits as well.. Still though, being able to get 3 decent hits through the tiniest bit of flower you can load it with is a big thing... is almost revolutionary I'd dare to say...

With my Ti set at 50% capacity, I can get 3 or 4 hits usually. The the SS tip I can get 5 to 7. All solid clouds. But as you mention, with a different technique I can roast it in one or 2 quick hits

I can always get at least 8 clicks with a chamber filled 80 to 90% of medium grind.

The last 2 clicks have no visible vapor but I do feel the effects for 30 to 45 minutes at a 6 or 7 so definitely worth not wasting. Thats the micro-dosing rule of thumb. If Im trying to get sky-high on a Sunday then I could cash the bowl in 3 clicks and see some dragon clouds. But in my opinion you dont get the best efficiency for your dollar this way. I feel that the lungs can only absorb so much vapor in each hit so that to take MONSTER hits is wasteful like pouring 12 ounces of coffee into an 8 ounce mug.

For me the secret is to find out the maximum amount of vapor that my lungs can absorb in each hit and to use just that much in every toke. And so far with my research:science: I have found that if I am getting less than 6 clicks total per chamber that I am not maximizing my efficiency and I am wasting my money.

Pretend you are down to your last gram and your dealer is out of town for 2 months. Now smoke your herb with that kind of respect for efficiency and you will have great results

EDIT: All this refers to the OG Glass version

For me , I never remove the o-rings , but I clean fairly often and see no need . I usually don't have to soak at all , but I don't use any concentrates in my vapcap either . I scrape out any reclaclaim . Then I soak a pipe cleaner in ISO and run it through the condenser . I then use the same pipe clean ( these are rough bristled btw ) to loosen anything stuck in the tip . Just swirl it around inside . Then I wipe it out with an ISO soaked q-tip . Last I rinse clean with the hottest water I can get from the tap . This seems to take care of anything that has managed to make its way on the outside of the parts I'm cleaning . I usually do this before bed and allow to air dry over night . Never had any issues so far .

@baxter . I have my screen set at the second position and use the suck like a straw method to load , no tamping , and manage to get 5-7 clicks per load . I agree this method is so much more efficient . Somehow I manage to get 1-2 clouds per click also .
