Hey! I'm interested in getting a Dab Ready and came across a video that mentioned a polymerization process.
Could someone explain the process they're using and the type of polymer being applied? Is it similar to the nonstick coating on pans? I've seen some posts mentioning an odor if it exceeds 680 degrees. Could this be the polymer layer burning off?"

Pretty sure that max temp recommendation is cuz the black plastic shell housing the unit starts to melt near the coil at high temps... but I could be wrong.

I haven't noticed any weird smells save for an occasional errant hair and I've had it up to 700f a few times (my housing shows no signs of melting either)

Edit: version 2 will need a better coil shield design.

Does anyone use the Terp Hammer with a metal bowl? Any recommendations?

I saw an earlier mention of b2cvape’s metal injector bowl, but it sounds like it's not a perfect fit.

^ Fits the freight train/terp hammer injector nicely. But it sits close to the screen and leaves little room for flower. The bowl will also soak up heat from the head.

I ordered some 3mm balls from Vgoodiez to try them out. But after I placed the order, I realized I don't know how many I'd need to make the swap. Anyone know how many 3mm would be optimal?

I have been using the freight train for a while now and I love it. I just gotta have the terp hammer. There is no way I can come up with $500. Money is tight right now. I think I can come up with $200. I do have a spare 25mm coil. I'm just going to have to make something work utilizing leftovers and junk from the garage. I just ordered the hammer, a must have! Hopefully it fits in my 25mm e-rig coil.

Thanks to the TroyTime discount, it left me an extra $20. Will be getting some magnets and (2) air tight canisters that will attach to the dock to hold some bud.

I tried the wireless banger and am loving it!

Troy's review of TerpHammer on his site 420vapezone, said 52 4mm pearls is stock configuration. Looks like he opened and counted them

He said using 3mm pearls instead increases draw restriction

I did some math using volume formula, and roughly 123 of 3mm spheres occupies same volume as 52 of 4mm. However, this does not account for extra space between the larger spheres

If you do refill Hammer, ensure there's enough extra "rattle when shook" room. The thick Ti shell will expand a bit when hot, so the pearls need some extra expansion room to avoid breakage

Edit: reddit post said you need 1.5mm Allen wrench (also called a Hex key) to open the Hammer

Great info! I ordered Vgoodiez says 110-120, so should be just about right.

I've had Troy's suggestion in the back of my head for a bit. I've had the TH for a year and it's my first and only ball vape. I saw a video from Lee (TableTop) and he was using a rimmed basket screen in the glass adapter with the TH upside down as a microdose option. I wanted to try it, and I didn't have any of those screens, so I went ahead and ordered the 3mm's with the screens. Mix it up a bit.

And thanks for the Allen wrench suggestion. I'm sure I have one somewhere, but I went ahead and ordered 2 from Amazon at .40 ea. just to be safe.

I am confused, where did my pictures go? I have not removed them from the link location. Did I do something wrong?

As far as I can tell at least one is now a broken link. They all appear to be links to Facebook's servers so it is possibly a permissions issue?

Got my hammer rig completed with accessories and I received my terp hammer!! Loving the terp hammer, loving the cordless option to dab and vape, can't beat it!

Yes. Probably safe to say all of us in this thread have at least seen it. :)

I quite enjoy mine and do not regret the purchase of either the Dab Ready or the Terp Hammer. Paired with the Woodscents on 24/7 standby, I'm basically, almost, at endgame for myself.

...first off, let me thank the mods for moving my post...I thought this device was new...LoL...

...I don't know that I will want a terp hammer as I remain satisfied with my one-armed bandit and Vap Bongs...

...I put/gave everything else away...this was in 2020, so I don't think the novelty is going to wear off soon...

...the only other device that I didn't basically shit can was the Glass Elevator...

...I have been trying to find an electronic device for concentrates that is comparable...

...one thing that let them all down was weird proprietorial bangers that didn't work well...

...I gave up on the New Vape (Cannabis Hardware) science projects long ago...

...not a one could really compare to a good old torch n banger when you get down to it...

...this looks like it could be it, a device comparable in simplicity and effectiveness to the mighty Vap Bong...

...I am still a little dicey on moving a hot banger around...so, this could not be it...

...another thing that has kept me from trying one is that I have come to like a cold start...

...I will most likely perseverate over this for a while and then just buy another torch...but I am still looking at it...

...is there an FC discount code or anything...???...

Update on this: It was easy to do, with the exception of stripping out one of the screws. Even being cautious, the first one stripped, other two were easier. Had to use a needle nose pliers to break it free. Smooth after that. Used the whole bag minus 10 at first to be safe. Wound up adding those 10 the next day.

It does ever so slightly restrict airflow. Blind test, I could maybe tell most of the time, but the difference isn't much. I'm going to leave them in, and it's probably worth a shot if you already have the balls, but I don't think I'd specifically order balls to do the swap.

Are there any metal bowls that are confirmed fits for the TH? It looks like the CH Matrix and the Crossing Tech 7 are not, and I see mixed things on the Shovelhead.

...I seriously do not want a terp hammer, but I am wondering how those Old Head 25mm banger sets are working out for people...

...I was thinking, how good can the system be if it is not all sold out n' shit...

...then I noticed the bangers were all sold out...LoL...

...they appear to be back in stock so now I am in danger of buying a Dab-Ready...Micro Soft did find a $30 discount code, even...
