Yep, the ID of the 1/2” nipple is 0.65in / 16.68mm.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
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.
Lamp stand?With the lamp stand it’s starting to sound a lot like the Element desktop halogen vape by Vapman.
Edit: Thanks @Stu
