Dynavap VapCap

[cybrguy]

Anyone use their Vapcap with a bubbler?

I bought a tiny little desk bubbler I saw somewhere on this thread and haven't a notion what the best way to use it is. I do at least have the rubber cap for the Vapcap itself.

I do a lot of the time. I am using a Nonavong for this for the most part, but if I want to use my M or Woody I usually use one of the silicone MPs that came with the OGs. If your glass piece has an 18mm joint you will need a 18 to 14mm reducer.
One of my favorite pieces for this is the D020, which is in my sig, but I also use the D022 and the FC-187. The first 2 are better tho because they have smaller cans which I think are a little better for the VCs...

The silicone is better than viton but more expensive. It resists flattening out and seems to abrade slower.

Did a quick research .
Silicone is more prone to damage from abrasion wear than Viton .

Cheers.

I was speaking from experience which has been that the silicone o-rings have maintained their fit longer than viton or buna-n. It doesn't get brittle with the repeated heat cycles.

Hey guys, any wood expert around here? Which is the best wood for the dynastash? I ordered the bocote and am afraid it may get a rot/thermite issue. Would the wenge be more resistant or dynavap use additives for protection?

Where do you plan to keep your dynastash where it would be exposed to excessive moisture or termites?

Unless you're planning to leave your stash outside in the rain and weather I wouldn't worry about it.

Well, both my M and Ti woody XL-S tips are not staying into their bodies. Only 2 months of use and now they seem to fall out more than stay in. Sent an email to DynaVap, hopefully they will have a solution. I am by no means rough or careless with any of my vapes/glass/etc so this is kind of surprising to me. I probably clean them like every two days, always "lubed" the orings and keep the wood body with a pristine shine.

Maybe they just got a bad batch of o-rings??

@Silver420Surfer - I had a similar problem and it was due to over-lubricating the rings. I went from lubbing every 2-3 days to once a week and the problem disappeared.

Obviously I microdose and absolutely love the effects! The highs are cleaner and far more enjoyable compared to a heavier dose.

I'm moving in the same direction. Microdosing with the Omnivap is so very good! Just did about .03 grams with 3 heating cycles and 6 long draws. Amazing vapor, smooth effect, fun to use and so damn efficient.

The vapor can be a bit harsh but other than that it's a great experience. The only thing that sucks about my Omni is that it looks like a crack pipe. It's so unstealthy there's no way I'd ever use this in public.

I wonder what other vapes in my collection can do this. I'll have to try the Milaana and the Hydrobrick Maxx with .03 grams. And the MFLB and Mighty with a liquid pad. Pretty sure the Solo sucks at microdosing.

 

[pxl_jockey]

Actually the Solo isn't so bad at microdosing if you flip a basket screen on the stem, you can get some tiny loads but having said that - around the casa I do reach for the M or Nano over the Solo 2. I think you've got things covered @vapenerd on the micro dosing front. Omni, Milaana, and Hbrick Maxx I would say you are spoiled for choice!
I must ask though, why do you say the Omni looks like a crack pipe? Do you mean while heating it, or the actual way it looks? I have no experience with the Omni so I am sincerely asking the question. TIA!

EDIT: I have no experience with crack pipes either. So there's that as well.

 

[kushkush]

I packed up my Volcano yesterday and now the space where it was is devoted to all things Dynavap. I will always love my Volcano because it's a superior thing (just like our vapcaps) but it sure wasn't the ticket for microdosing.

I would also like to know how the Omni looks like a crack pipe...can't imagine. My Omni Cocobolo is the sweetest looking thing I've ever gazed at, and it's so small you just can't get any more stealth. I always laugh when I see someone talk about the difference in weight between the M and the Omni. Okay, I've said it before but just to be real scientific one more time, they both weigh NOTHING!

 

[vapenerd]

Surprised about the Solo, gonna have to try it!

Kind of both. Switzerland legalized cannabis containing up to one percent THC and yes, some smoke or vape in public. But with an Omnivap Ti? People don't even know what that is over here. The Omni just doesn't feel like something I'd use in public. Hard to explain but it would feel totally weird.

Btw, for those interested here's a funny video about Hanftheke in Bern:

 

[Dynalowrider]

Never saw a wooden crack-pipe, nor a titanium one, or a stainless steel one ether. I will admit I haven't been following any crack-heads to see what's in vogue lately. Don't they light it like a "pipe"? The only reason I'm the least curious is to see how a VC looks like a crack-pipe. Do they do it different across the pond? Doc

 

[pxl_jockey]

Yeah @vapenerd I understand, I don't reckon there's many familiar with our type of vaporizers in England. But I think I would use that to my advantage. The fact I don't have to warm it near my face means I can be discreet; from the moment I begin to hit it it's a natural enough sight anywhere in Europe. Just another dude "smoking".

Not sure how it is in Switzerland, but I see tons of people in the UK huffing and puffing on pretty large box-mod e-cig type devices all the time. Blowing ridiculous clouds, like steam engines. Especially in the city. Again, I will use that to my advantage. Before the M came into my life, I used my Solo 2 in London a few times. Being smart and picking the moment, nothing about using it looks out of place thanks to e-ciggies. Thank you for replying!

I've been having major problems taking the cap off of my Ti Woody. After using it mainly as a wax vape with hemp fiber for a few months, the cap has become stuck to the bowl. After cleaning it, putting it in the freezer, heating it up, and using some pliers, I was able to get the cap off once. I cleaned the bowl with iso to get off the remaining gunk, then vaped some flower with it. Since then, the cap has gotten re-stuck to the bowl, and no amount of pulling helps. I'm worried that the is slightly misshapen, and that's why getting the cap off is so difficult. Has anyone else had this problem?

 

[DirtyD]

If I set my CCD to the middle position, and fill that half way with fine grind and light tamp down with my pinky not too tight, ....... I feel like I am " microdosing ". Have not weight it , either way it ain't a lot. The VC system got me off combustion and is the reason I can " microdose". Getting super high off of very little thanks to this bad boy. Amazing piece of equipment. Blown away by this thing!!!

I've seen a couple of posts in this thread where people have had a similar issue.

I think they contacted DynaVap to get a new cap.

 

[pxl_jockey]

^ @DirtyD this is so great to hear as I am only starting out with an M. I like micro dosing with one of my other vapes but ATM I'm micro dosing in size of load but loading more often to play with the M! It's fun to play with but there's a line one can cross when experimenting. I know because I keep crossing it; the M sneaks up on me like no other vaporizer I've had. I think I'm impatient to have mastered this device and need to relax a bit. There's not a test, right?

 

[Dynalowrider]

We repossess if you don't get it right. Doc


Edit: It had to be said. Sorry.

Is it possible that there's still wax in the top of the cap with the discs? That could be why it's getting stuck. My brother had this happen to him when he left his vapcap full of shatter in a hot car and it melted into the cap.

Another reason caps get stuck is if the cap is pushed on too hard and it gets stuck in the crimp at the very top.

Looking for an internal stealthy VC storage tube for your bicycle?

Look here!

Nice concept, @Hogni!
I use the steering tube/ handle bar tube for stealth-storage---shhhh, no one will look there.

Additional storage in the seat tube.

When I really want to go stealth, I mean all the way, I pick up a squirrel and just fit a VC in it's jaws sideways. No one's expecting a thing. Just like this:

 

[TeeJay1952]

@Kob That's Nuts!

 

[hafalump]

Very stealthy. I don't even see a squirrel. Just a chipmunk!

Hi, Chip! Wear is Dale hidin these days?


@TeeJay1952 Where?
