ACE OF VAPE

Vape outside the box
Manufacturer
I was doing bong Hits to test out the 14mm GonG stem for the E-Nano.. but I hate water filtration...
I then thought... if i get such tasty hits from the stem, a shorter stem would be richer and thicker..
1) My nose is too big to try that.
2) Is that you on guitar? It's good.
3) I thought there was a bird in my shop when I turned up the sound.

3) That was Frances the lovebird chirping
2) The guitar was synthesized on "Garage Band"
1) Use the longer stem..... so as not to abuse your nose!

I hope this isn't too off-topic, but I'm looking for a nice bubbler to go with the Nano. Something with a 18.8mm female slide joint (preferably dewaar/recessed) to match the GonG connector I also ordered from Epicvape.

Having looked through this thread, I'm seeing lots of love for the Mobius Ion Matrix. As ideal as this piece looks, it's currently sold out on ALT and it's a little above my price range ($330). I'm hoping to find something "similar" (good build quality and percolation in a small package) for around $200 or less.

I've looked through the "Cheap, high-quality bubbler??" thread on here, but I think I'm looking for more of a "mid-range" piece if that makes any sense?

Currently I've found a couple that may fit the task:

Dynomite Glass - 50 mm Showerhead Perc Bubbler ($140) (http://aqualabtechnologies.com/scie...mite-glass-50-mm-showerhead-perc-bubbler.html)

Blaze Glass Circ Perc Glass Bubbler with Worked Color Sections - Jailhouse Rainbow ($157) (http://www.grasscity.com/us_en/circ...-sections-jailhouse-rainbow.html#.UnFuK_msi-2)

Boro Farm Glass - Gridded Circ Perc Bubbler ($200) (http://aqualabtechnologies.com/scie...oro-farm-glass-gridded-circ-perc-bubbler.html)

Does anybody have any comments on any of the above pieces? Any recommendations of other bubblers you think would fit the bill?

Thanks for any help! :)

Frits are too much percolation for some people, but I find it comparable to a matrix perc. I have the straight tube version of this piece, it pairs great with my Nano and it should only cost $175ish shipped

Edit: Here's a video of mine in action. I really do love using the nano with this piece, I have a hard time vaping above 7 on anything but my frit or pieces with similar diffusion.

Almost there...
I just dusted my E-Nano off after about a month of not being used.
It appears i may have too many vapes, if that is at all possible!!

Loaded up some Pineapple Express and i really enjoyed!!
So much so i had another 2 sessions straight after!

This is one vape that will be kept in rotation for as long as possible.

Still hits like a champ, produces thick tasty clouds and gets me medicated quickly.
I see a few more sessions before bed tonight!

Sad day here. My Nano was working fine this morning. I came home to put it through a session. Soon after the light was flashing on and off as the cord wiggled. It seems like a wiring issue. We'll see what Andy can do.

I just ordered more gongs on Monday and was planning on taking this out of town for a weekend trip too. This is really beating me down.

Sadly I think that's a weak spot on most nanos. It should be a fairly easy fix if you're into that sort of thing and don't mind voiding the warranty. No problems with mine after extensive daily use but I am very cautious. I do worry about the longevity of the cord.

I'd love to see a detachable power cord similar to other logs or the LSV but of course this would only add to the price.

Sorry about your Nano, Doug.

Mine is on 24/7, and I keep having to un-twirl the cord. I'm a bit worried mine might get damaged, too. However, I very confident that my hubby could put it to rights (he's got electrical/electronics (yes, both) work in his background)... and, I am not worried about the warranty (see above).

I do know that Andy is fast, amazing, and will have you back to E-Nano-ing as soon as he can!

I can do that. There are some pictures some pages back posted by Andy. Looking at the other pictures of his from that site show the internals already if that's what you are looking for.

I'm more interested in the fault. I have a PD that broke and all it needed was a resoldering. I'm not sure how technical this current fix for you would be.

I always start all sessions with my E-Nano upside down. That first hit glues the meds in place so nothing falls. Then I get reckless and carefree and do horizontal or even the occasional bold "rightside-up hit"
When I use this for hash/kief/bubble hash.. I mash the stuff as best I can and suck some herb into the stem 1st, to isolate the glass partition from any overly sticky OR powdery involvement, and do my sessions primarily upside down.

I may not be as rich as most of the Ballers on this forum.

However I have cheap low income JERRY SPRINGER type glass pieces that get me medicated.

$79.00 from www.planetvapes.com

Miscellaneous glass fitting Sherlock + Ash Collector = $40.00

I use my imagination since I'm a cheap ass!

Not to sound like a cheerleader or anything, but I have to give about a quadruple thumbs up to Andy here.

I sent my Nano in for a tune-up (of my own choosing) on Tuesday, 10/29/13. And that's from the East Coast. I now have it back on Monday, 11/04/13. Yes, that's less than a week, from East Coast to West Coast, tune-up, and back again - during Halloween weekend. And that was more than enough time to realize how much I fucking love the little Nano.

I've come to depend on it to such a degree that I'd not thought of it all that much lately. Just as the "tool" that was always ready, day in and day out. That's the beauty of a log vape - it's always ready! No matter what new vape may come out, there is always room for a vape that is ready at ANY TIME.

Yes, it was only six days. But... it was six days too long, if you ask me. :ko:

I vape at 6.5 or 7
a stem is toasted in 3 good hits
I can do 2 back to back stems (5-6 hits) before that
shorty stem becomes too hot to handle.
I generally only need 2 fat rips, so it never gets too hot.
If I want longer activity and impunity to heat, I just use the longer stem.
Vitolo it's your fault I keep breaking glass!

The NANO I use more than ever because of your influential effect!

I broke my 18mm NANO GonG:


Good thing ANDY sent me 2 of the 14MM Adapters.

I then set my NANO at 8 for a dry session when 6.5 is my sweet spot.

Ok looks like another session with the NANO is required at my preferred setting!
