I find no need to remove the O-rings as they are tiny and fragile. I cleaned my new M with hot water and Dawn dish soap.
Used a Q-tip with Dawn first, and Q-tip with some cotton removed to fit into the condenser. Q-tip came out with small black goop, probably a machining oil that you don't want to vape.
Soaked and rinsed several times in hot water. Reassembled.
Your choice on the O rings.
Always good to lube the O-rings after cleaning to help with their longevity. I used some coconut oil


I recently got the Omnivap. I've vaped about 10 bowls out of it so far. I saw your post so decided to send a cotton swab down the condenser. Sure enough I got a small amount of black goop. Definitely looks like machine oil.

after 10 bowls it could be decarboxylated honey oil. I have the glass Vapcap and really fire material will instantly start distilling hash oil inside the condenser.

No problem. I'm still not sure about battery life yet..I've done maybe 10 or 12 loads and have not noticed a significant drain. About the same as if I was vaping on my tank I guess. I will follow up when I have a better feel for it

Antispleen I am so glad you are here. Dang.. That is an awesome little heater. I dont understand what type of base that is though. It looks like its kinda pricey. Could you tell me the brand and about how much it costs. I am envious. :) I really wish someone would figure out how to mod a cig lighter. It has to work.

That is the al85 mod. This is the cheapest I could find http://cheapvaping.deals/smok-alien-al85-box-mod-kit
around thirty bucks, plus a battery or two!
And this is the rda I got
https://www.fasttech.com/product/4666300-goon-styled-rda-rebuildable-dripping-atomizer

It really has bridged a gap for me. This is the most versitile vap I can imagine. I've got a collection of torches for every occasion, but I haven't used any since I got this thing going. I am really starting to get the hang of it, and it's working just as good if not better than butane. No spinning, even toast. Just push button wait for click and inhale. I sometimes just leave it attached and hit it like that. Takes a bit longer for the cool down click, but no worries if your not in a hurry. I already had batterys and mods kicking around. For the cost of a torch I have opened up a whole new world to my caps.

just about any RDA 2 or 3 post deck should do ....

you can find them on fasttech for $2 - $5 USD (if you want to wait)

dont want to wait, head over to your local ecig store and ask them for the cheapest RDA they got, they might even have one in the back that has some missing pieces or something, they'd give you for free.. all you need, technically, is the deck (and some coil wire)

Nice !! Always loved jade .
@Winegums , that box is beautiful !!! Your choice of wood is amazing . Great work !!
@antispleen can we get a pic of the inside of the coil ?? I would like to try to build one of these one day , but I have zero knowledge of how any of that works.

This is exactly what I did. The guy started asking questions about the project. I showed him a couple of pictures and within 15 minutes he had built me this coil, installed and tested it and that was it. 20 bucks. It's been working flawlessly since. I'm using as I type, as it only requires one hand!:lol:

No matter what I do ,it seems that I just can't get that nice "turqoise-green" tint that I want ,
so to match the 7 fin Ti tip with the Amboyna burl Vong.
I get some faint greens but not what I want .
:cuss:
Anyway .


Another tip anodised .:rockon:
Tint :" DV Stash tube Purple " !
:bowdown::bowdown::bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:
(Electrolyte: White vinegar ,@ 100 Volts for about 2 minutes )

I'm loving the Gold and Purple, also I like the mods on your Nona VonGs.

I've heard that Ti Green is very difficult to achieve. I found this post a while ago when looking up methods.http://www.bladeforums.com/threads/anodizing-titanium-green.590478/#post-15797867

Thanks! I'm super happy with the way this first one turned out. I'll have some more done soon, as well as a vape parts/tool organizer that will hold things upright.

Thank you Winegums !
After a short research I 've found two basic things about anodising Titanium up to green tint.



1) It needs a lot of amperage .More than 2 A @100 V.
Well right now ,I do not have such a PSU .

2) Titanium needs etching to be anodized green.
But etching chemicals for Titanium are pretty nasty stuff.
No thanx ! I'll pass.

Anyway. From gold tint( ~ 63 VDC ) and upwards ,the titanium oxide layer is thick enough!
It takes some time to sand the tint off
(Tried that on a scrap piece of Ti ).

I can live with gold ,pink ,blue and purple !


Edit : But from the other hand ....

Check out the green sticks ...
Simply awesome !
I can imagine a full M-Ti in that tint !
Now what ?

Hi,I'd like to briefly share my story with the Vapcap. It profoundly changed my life...Recently I was put into a state psychiatric center for Suicidal Ideation (I had been struggling with depression and panic attacks for years along with the demon spirits, alcohol.) So I did what any drunk suicidal person that wanted some hope would do, and went to my local outreach center. Well that has turned out to be a HUGE changing point in my life, long story somewhat short, they court ordered me to a state psychiatric center, inside they had me take powerful medication; Haldol, Phenobarbitol, and Modifinil For 7 days. (They have me wrongly diagnosed as Schizophrenic and Psychotic at the Local outreach center)...Anyways, Despite me saying "I think the patients are staff members." During my final interview with the Doctor (Which I now recognize and distinguish as a subthreshold delusion caused by Haldol and perhaps Modifinil, I was discharged at 11:00 P.M. Where I was taxied to a one room bus station, Alone I waited for 2 1/2 hours with nothing but a camera watching me, I began to have paranoid dellusional thoughts that I tried to ignore. As I got on the bus I began to think the Bus station drivers worked for the Hospital, I got home around 4:30 AM. Later that day I went and got my prescriptions filled, All except for Modifinil (which wasn't covered by my insurnece) And I had filled a bottle of Cybalta and took that along with Haldol.

I walked home from the pharmacy that afternoon and decided to go out back to use the Vapcap, I had many interviews with the "Doctor" I stated "I am an inveterate cannabis use, are you sure it's safe to mix with these medications?" He replied many times, "Should be no problem." ....well after 2-3 hits off the vapcap, I had a full blown 3 1/2 day psychosis, the peak of which lasted for about 1 1/2 hours, I had full hallucinations and dellusions consisting of thinking people could read my mind, rays of light coming out of two social workers heads.

I changed in 10 minutes from being an adult to being a little child playing with a bug on a piece of paper, then to histracilly laughing...then for the remainder of the 3 days I was convinced that 3 seperate hospitals I had been in were all a Government mind control research program, keeping track of me with security cameras, about day 3-4 I began to return to reality. Now that I am back to normal, since I broke the court order refusing to take medication, the outreach center is taking me to court on Tuesday at 9AM (wish me luck), However a few strange things have happened one was during the middle of the psychotic break (the out reach center is right beside my house so i went back there as soon as i began to lose my mind thinking they would help me. They witnessed the entire episode.) During it I pulled out my phone and used a digital version of the IChing, I got hexagram 43 "Break-Through" I flipped coins digitally in unision to the ticking of the clock and the energy coming out of the social workers heads....That helped me actually to have read the Judgment the Iching gave me (I'll post it below.)

The other strange thing is now that I am off all substance and medication, My memory is improved 110%, I can remember things I've never been able to remember in my life. Names, Phone numbers, places, details...I feel clear and focused, no panic attacks, no depression... Whatever happened has changed me for life, Now I fear they will try to put me in a Chemically induced prison...I hope this isn't the case. Thank you for reading this, Please wish me goodluck on Tuesday. Unfortunately, Now I can't use cannabis for at least 8 months- 1 year.

"Listen, wait, and be patient. Every shaman knows you have to deal with the fire that's in your audience's eye. " -Ken Kesey

P.S. (notes)

HEXAGRAM NUMBER FORTY-THREE –

RESOLUTENESS, BREAK-THROUGH

Other titles: Break-through, The Symbol of Decision, Resolution, Determination, Parting, Removing Corruption, Eradication



Judgment

Legge: Recognizing the risks involved in criminal prosecution, justice demands a resolute proof of the culprit's guilt in the royal court. One informs one's own city that armed force is not necessary. In this way progress is assured.

Wilhelm/Baynes:Break-through. One must resolutely make the matter known at the court of the king. It must be announced truthfully. Danger. It is necessary to notify one's own city. It does not further to resort to arms. It furthers one to undertake something.

Blofeld: Resolution. When a proclamation is made at the court of the King, frankness in revealing the true state of affairs is dangerous. [In vital matters, frankness may prove dangerous.] In making announcements to the people of his own city, it is not fitting for the ruler to carry arms. [It is better to repose trust in our own people.] It is favorable to have some goal (or destination).

The hexagram is linked with the third month of the Chinese Zodiac [April-May]."

Some good news, I'm back to reality. The experience changed my life forever. The doctors allowed me to stop all medication. Some bad news, I'm at higher risk for psychosis now that I've had one break. I likely won't be able to use herb for 8 months-1 year.

I think that what they caused is called, "anti-psychotic induced dopamine supersensitivity psychosis"

The interesting news psychosis has proven benefit. https://www.madinamerica.com/2017/02/psychosis-for-mental-health/

...somehow I'm glad this happened and the Vapcap was with me on my journey. At one point during the 3 day psychosis I offered the Ti woody to the doctors trying to treat me, they said "no thanks.":rofl:

Really though how quick and easy is this?

Ijust s mod, 12 bucks (https://vapesourcing.com/eleaf-ijust-s-battery.html)

Rda 10 bucks (https://www.fasttech.com/product/4666300-goon-styled-rda-rebuildable-dripping-atomizer)

And if anyone wants to they can post that video over on reddit. I tried to but it looks like I've been blocked, the bastards.


any idea what the gauge of your wire is?? I've been reading back and can't find it mentioned. We have a ton of ecig parts, mod and rebuildable laying around. I just might need to pick up some wire.

The excellent corrosion resistance of titanium alloys results from the formation of very stable, continuous, highly adherent, and protective oxide films on metal surfaces. Because titanium metal is highly reactive and has an extremely high affinity for oxygen, these beneficial surface oxide films form spontaneously and instantly when fresh metal surfaces are exposed to air and/or moisture. In fact, a damaged oxide film can generally reheal itself instantaneously if at least traces of oxygen or water are present in the environment. However, anhydrous conditions in the absence of a source of oxygen may result in titanium corrosion, because the protective film may not be regenerated if damaged.

The nature, composition, and thickness of the protective surface oxides that form on titanium alloys depend on environmental conditions. In most aqueous environments, the oxide is typically TiO2, but may consist of mixtures of other titanium oxides, including TiO2, Ti2O3, and TiO. High-temperature oxidation tends to promote the formation of the chemically resistant, highly crystalline form of TiO, known as rutile, whereas lower temperatures often generate the more amorphous form of TiO, anatase, or a mixture of rutile and anatase.

Although these naturally formed films are typically less than 10 nm thick and are invisible to the eye, the TiO; oxide is highly chemically resistant and is attacked by very few substances, including hot, concentrated HCl, H2SO4, NaOH, and (most notably) HF. This thin surface oxide is also a highly effective barrier to hydrogen.

The methods of expanding the corrosion resistance of titanium into reducing environments include:

  • Increasing the surface oxide film thickness by anodizing or thermal oxidation
(...)

http://www.totalmateria.com/Article24.htm


While with thermal oxidation (the term heat anodising is somewhat false,'cause simply there
is no anode while heating ... :hmm: ) the oxide layer formed is more chemically resistant ,

(your tip and Ti OMNI would withstand almost any corossive chemical agent ,but let's ask why & how
first place,the ti tip would come in contact with such substances ...Anyway ..One can never know ,right ? )

still the colors are rather random and not uniform .

While,with actual anodising ,specific uniform colors
and a wide variety of designs and effects can be achieved .
Still,high voltages are involved and that means that possible hazards are involed .

Anyway.
Titanium is so cool when it gets anodised or heat oxidised .

I just got a reply from Payton Penn on YT video, he says he's using 22 gauge kanthal. I was wondering about avoiding shorts too. I definitely want this to work, because I have found many situations, outside where this method of heating would be more discrete and it looks to be pretty fast on the heat up time. My mod lets you plug in usb to charge so I can keep the battery full when I'm not out and about. I have to say with my use, I am refilling my lighters a lot more often than I'd care to. I love the quickness of the triple flame, but it eats my butane quick.
