thanks

Some T4 bulb supposedly has a diameter of 0.53". so it wouldn't fit? is it bad if it's "prism" or seemingly not clear glass?:

But your satco S1924 above has a diameter of 0.5", but it fits inside the 0.5" nipple?
Ah, "pipe sizes do not refer to any physical dimensions". Nice.

bit expensive, thinner T3.5:

maybe i should use a 35-45W bulb.. it's gonna be a while until I can build one, either way.
best diy vape project ever
Yep, the ID of the 1/2” nipple is 0.65in / 16.68mm.

I’d stick with clear glass. Frosted halogen lamps run a bit hotter. Might work out though. Don’t really know. I’m using a Satco S1924

Lower wattage should work fine. Just a bit slower. 75W may be the sweet spot.

With the lamp stand it’s starting to sound a lot like the Element desktop halogen vape by Vapman.

Lamp stand?

No worries, I just don’t know Vapman.

Funny nickname. Does he have a Vapsignal? :lol:

A Vapcave :D

Edit: Found it. You mean Element Medical

I want to meet or be this guy! Instead of a Butler he has a hip old hippy stoner like Tommy Chong as his budtender.

Most of the episodes would revolve around whether to get off the couch or not.

Vapgirl: Vapman! The village is overrun with weed eating squirrels!!!

Vapman: Yea yea that’s cool, have you seen my new LBV?

Vapgirl: No, break that bamma out.

*two hours pass, still on couch*

Butler Chong: Sir, the squirrels have eaten all the weed in the village and are headed this way. Man...

Vapman: Perfect, my weed is in a squirrel proof electrified safe.

*Sound of squirrels being zapped in background*

Vapman: Problem solved, and lunch is ready.


:D

This episode brought to you courtesy of the Light Box Vaporizer that toasted my ass about 20 minuets ago and the power of procrastination.

This looks amazing, watching with interest! I think the world is craving a no-nonsense, powerful and durable vape for under $50, and this could be the ticket. Who needs the digital controls and other frills, when a vape just hits well out of the box? Not me. I'm all for the minimalist design, less is more. I can see myself buying 2 or 3 of these, to have them in different rooms of the house etc.

Thanks for your work putting this together, I look forward to trying it one day!
