Dynavap VapCap

[Archaicrevival]

Thanks for the update @VapCap Things are looking wonderful for your business, I'm happy for you! This is such a unique product and since vaporizing helps users stop smoking it improves many lives. Just awesome!

 

[Copacetic]

Well, the mouthpieces are coming.

Cwheezy nailed it, "DynaVas".

Your whole post was full of

But the killer (for me) was that wooden mouthpiece!
OUTSTANDING

 

[Smelly Dog]

Can one of you VapCap owners who use oils in the Vapcap explain how you do it? I've never used oils so bear with me on lack of terminology that goes with dabbing, I have questions since I might get some oil and I own a VC.

I heard of cotton and hemp fiber mentioned,ss mesh, what do I do with it though?

 

[Kalessin]

Well, the mouthpieces are coming.

Made out of this rather cool chunk of Australian oh my gosh burl.

Other woods, and well some other cool things coming too, all interchangeable of course.
And then there was this pretty sight.

I don't know why, but the sight of freshly machined, high precision titanium is just awesome to me. I find myself shaking my head a bit sometimes when I think about how this thing is evolving. This titanium tip for example has a few dimensions where the tolerance needs to be within 0.002" or 0.05mm or it just won't fit. All this to extract vaporized compounds from a sample. . I love it!

Oh and the short blackwood body fits the OmniVap too.

The blackwood is so hard and tight grained it polishes like metal. There is no finish on this!

So to conclude, I am building and shipping, but please be patient. I can't believe how fast this is growing and I am expanding as fast as I can
I hope to be less than a week out on order fulfillment by next week.

More cool stuff coming.

Cheers,

George

Damn...what did you use to polish it? I want my blackwood to be so beautiful...

WHOA! GEORGE!

Talk about Jonesin' for a Woody!!!

I'm so confused. Does anyone know what goes to what?
I'm still trying to get the "OG" to work right. I've dry clicked this thing till I'm blue in the face. I get it down pat, then wind up burning everything I try to vape.
I dropped the damn thing, (it grew carpet hair,) picked it up by the wrong end, branded the fingerprint off my right index finger.
Does anyone have a mouthpiece that fits in the little dugout. The dug out is why I got this thing and it doesn't fit in the damn thing. Doc

Can't help with the dugout, but make sure you aren't heating too low, if you keep the flame within the top half of the cap you should be fine. I heat mine with a single flame at the bottom of the cap, this turns it very black and I'd imagine heating a full cycle bellow the cap would combust most loads. Basically the closer to the top you heat, the quicker the "click" and the cooler it will be.

 

[alltoreup]

@Dynalowrider sorry to hear you are having troubles. Sounds like the cap works fine. Have you tried reducing the load amount? It might be too full and scorching the load. And burning yourself only adds to the frustration I'm sure.

My OG does fit down in my Dynastash. It actually comes out of it better than the plastic tube. I bet it is just your mouthpiece being a bit thicker than mine. Seems like these are super cheap so I'd say the tolerances are not very tight for the QC. You might email George and see if he can send out a couple of mouthpieces for you to swap out and try. He emailed me back in less than 15 minutes yesterday when I asked a question, so you should be able to get a solution quickly. Good luck!

Send an email to George, he will promptly sort that out for you!

Re:Torches -- my 3x flame lighter lasted about 2 months before it literally fell apart. I took it apart and just made things worse by trying to reassemble it... I even got it all together properly, only to find that the button/spring assembly had failed at the plastic part. I absolutely loved how it heated my vap, but I'm looking for a new torch. I think my crappy butane stopped up my single flame with residue, because I can't get it to give me a decent flame any more, despite regular purging. Can't wait to try a new 4x burner lighter, as my propane torch is a bit much for the 'cap.

#firstworldproblems

Edit: @VapCap your updates continue to leave us all salivating with your pornographic images. Thank you.

 

[VoodooChild]

I will have to get one eventually. Can someone post a pic of the new torch?

 

[cybrguy]

I picked up one of these when I was waiting for my first VapCap to arrive, because it was inexpensive and looked OK. Turns out to be a decent torch for the VapCap. I just reordered a couple more to have around in case of failure. At $5 a pop there really isn't much to lose.
Good Choice in Triple Flame. The original order only took about 10 days, order to arrival, which is very fast for a ship from China order...

 

[ragnorokk]

So I used my Ti/Glassy in a new way today... reading about the way the omni functions, and remembering how I felt about my 2 different lengths of condenser tubes in my OG, I adjusted my condenser tube from its stock position and am having a grand old time. It's the cave-man's Omni, as it's very clunky trying to just push the stock ss condenser around with a chopstick, but I'm loving the results I'm getting in the new position I've chosen!

@VoodooChild that 4 burner looks siiiick, thanks for giving us some eye candy.

I don't understand what you did - did you remove the SS condenser and replace it with a OG condenser? Could you post a picture?

It's cool that you've found that this is possible on non OV units!

Have you lengthened your condenser, or shortened it?

How's it effected the experience?

 

[alltoreup]

Hey @VoodooChild thanks for posting that pic. Do you find it very hard to press the switch to ignite that torch? I have a couple different torches and some are very hard to press down so I haven't ordered a new one as I have no way to tell how stiff the switch will be until too late.

And how's the fuel consumption on that one? TIA

@ragnorokk nice idea on the condenser. I may have to try that even though I'm getting some huge clouds with the stock woodie. It's all about the

 

[phattpiggie]

@Dynalowrider I had a bush fire when I used @Ruta's OG the other nite. I heated it the same way I do my Ti. All the heat at the digger end. Just because you can get it to click dry doesn't mean it wouldn't have combust if it had been loaded. Try heating only at the cap. Keep the jet about 1-1 1/2" away. The further away the gentler the heat and a little longer to click.

So we've had some new @VapCap porn and we all love wood.
We've had a couple of bits of Butane Jet porn and we all got hot and bothered.
How about a little bit of Patina porn. Patina Applebum.

I broke my second gen Glassy Ti body and figured I would share my experience. After checking out the OV I was messing with adjusting the SS tube to see the difference. I then also decided to remove the larger O-ring between the Ti tip and Glass body so the ss tube would go farther into the tip and it seemed to make the tip feel more secure in the body. I also thought it may have been there more for the woody's and how some were splitting. Last night after heating and then taking some draws when the cooling click let off it's sonic boom the glass body broke at the tip and the tip fell off. Luckly knowing how I'm good at fucking shit up I had a spare body so I put the o-ring back in place as it seems to help control heat even on the glassy.

I had 2 different length turbulated condensers for my OG. I had a preference, and when my favorite broke, I was sad. The SS condenser on the new Ti/glassy is not held in place the same way that the condenser on an OG is, so I am able to adjust it inside the body of the Ti/glassy. Basically, I pushed my SS a little deeper with a chopstick (not all the way to the ceramic screen, but definitely deeper into the Ti tip), and got a more "closed carb" type experience. Not the same as totally closing it, but definitely more vapor production and much more resistance to the hit. Think of it as an ultra-manual omni -- can't adjust easily on the fly, but you can preset to your favorite place and not mess with the carb during your hits.

This is what I was dong when I removed the O-ring.

 

[Tommy10]

Broke my last condenser tube, it will still work without it, but for my style it does not work. I'm a ripper not a sipper and ripping is impossible with a closed card, hits are too airy with an open one and this carb pulsing stuff is not my game. However I will try and see how much I can bend this cap up to allow more air, if it breaks no big loss won't be using it much. Now I need to remember where my vapman is as VC has been behind the wheel, and I know I want conduction. Will order a wood/ti soon anyways
Rock on vapcap

This is seriously making me doubt changing my Ti Woody order to an OV preorder ... again ...

It seems like the sweet spot, if you like taking a long, deep draw, is quite hard to attain? And since Tommy has an OG (or half of one now) and Ragnorokk has a Woody, the upgrade to Ti doesn't seemed to have mediated the problem? Would be glad to read about more on this, especially from those who have tested all three, or OG/TI and OV. Thanks alot!

 

[Tommy10]

I think the carb and condenser tube is what makes the happy medium, obviously I'd prefer a more open draw and air only coming through the bowl, but seems it's not possible at the moment. With the condenser tube obviously the draw path starts up near the bowl and the carb is far back. Without the tube the carb is not far from where your draw starts and hogs the bowl of the air flow.
I've tried a bit of silicone around the body to part cover the carb, but it seems half covering the carb doesn't half the air flow (probably because the area around the hole is risen above the body) you can affect the airflow by moving it over 90% of the carb but it's finicky. Interested to try a wood/ti myself, I think the 5 smaller carb holes that you can cover some all or none on the wooden body sounds good. I still see that as the biggest issue with this vape, sucking an orange through a hose with covered carb, vs unwanted fresh air with open carb. Once that's cracked, this system will be unreal.

Also hear what you're saying on the OV, looks awesome but I can't justify it if it's still a tight draw with the carb closed. I'd much prefer to just get a wood/ti which will seemingly last a life time and wait until there is a carbless model with an open draw. Anyone know how hard it would be for a complete amateur to attempt to etch some air tunnels into the glass body? Similar to the PV solo stems? Not too bothered if I break it, and I have two to try, but manipulating the cap hasn't offered much decrease in draw resistance so desperate to give something a go.

 

[S0L0m0n]

Received my OV earlier today, what a simple and awesome device! So stoked.

Been vaping for a solid 10+ years, went through a few since the OG Volcano I had, like the MFLB and a Solo (that I hold on to, as it was good to me), and an eNano, then about a year and a half ago I got a Mighty, which has been my daily driver.
The Mighty upped my consumption a lot, both for/from the amazing experience it offers but the ease of use, it can be quickly loaded (with packer pre-loaded) and quite discrete too. The problem is, aside from it not being a small load, that I'm on my 3rd (2nd was a warranty replacement). The last return, was due to an accident (Synergy Kombucha lid cracked in bike panniers, leaked into bubble wrap sack with The Mighty and the water sensor went off, Err 004), so that was a bummer and costly (they did give me a deal)...

Anyways, I've been real eager to get something of quality that could maybe compare, in a different way!

For years, I used a dugout, for more years my daily driver was my one hitter.
When I started vaping, that had to change.

Now, I've only used the OV 5-10 times (today!) so far, and I know there's a lot to figure out, tune.
But, Wow, I love packing one hits, using my fingers, it's a great nostalgic feeling, a routine to have back!
Even better than that, is the ability to consume less, but have similar to the same effects.
Can't wait to go camping with this thing.

The OV airflow adjust is awesome!
With it closed, it's almost as though the carb is closed, which from what I can tell just pull's harder (trying to say it gives a heavy hit like that).
With it more open, you can close the carb and have a different control over the hit.

It started to combust on one that I had loaded to the brim, so I'm avoiding loading it entirely, I also cut a small screen to put in it to reduce chances of anything reaching my mouth or throat.

One thing I have to get good at, is butane refilling. Hoping that I don't find myself spending too much on it. Would love to have an option that I could plug into the wall, and just basically place the loaded, capped, cap down on, to heat without torch or flame. I did see a video of some guy using a coil of an electric mod vape thing, to heat the cap in...

George, you're the man, thanks for the brilliant revolutional device!

If you are very careful and quick you can heat vapcap until the cap clicks then quickly pull off the cap cover the carb and inhale.
