A great device to have. 1+ wk of everyday use without any body burns with only one ‘bust’! Cleaning up a bowl burn is quick and easy, making the HR desirable. And no fear in darkening flower, to the edge.
Great idea! and then can look for some other less janky way to do this. Maybe a metal rod with a connecting wire that attaches to shield? Wonder what is in my random toolbox...
There’s nothing janky to it really- It took a couple of minutes for a guy with more than 2 thumbs and the shield sits as tight as can with the screws really biting hard into the wood
I was thinking along these lines when you raised the possibility of slot to keep it secure. What I pictured was a 3 or 4" rods attached to the inside corners of the guard closest to the stand, maybe with wire, so that it would look sorta like goal posts. Or, you could probably cut/print some sort of flat, bracket type thingy that would work similarly, and mount it to the stand before/in place of the heat guard. Not sure this helps, but just brainstorming.
Vapenorth has itWell VAS finally won out and I think im going to make this Hotrod my first desktop vape. Ive had a Solo, a Mighty and my 19' M hold me over for long enough and Im ready (as is my tolerance) for something with more power. Just as I was getting ready to submit my order it sold out. Lesson learned, don't fight the VAS, just order now and think later
Hoping OldHead can crank out some good ones here on the next batch.
Yeah, mulling things over here. I think I might be more comfortable with something more bombproof than just magnets.
Something like that could be good, for, like walk-away security. I've been trying to think of something more secure but still convenient so it doesn't become a hassle to use. Still mulling. Could it work in the CH stand with an insert or something?
Yeah, something like this Disorderly Conduction stand at at the level of where the cord meets the handle , but maybe a bit deeper V could work. It i is primarily that lateral, slide of the side issue that worries me.
Ah, I think I see where you're going. You could mount a mini-something-like- one of those coming up from the underside of the base, maybe. Even angled out a little to catch the cord itself where it joins the reinforcement.
Ah! a U with tabs bent inward that can latch into the heat shield and be swung over and rested on top the handle at rest. You might even shape it so it conforms to the shape of the handle somewhat for more security. It would be a simple flip onto the handle or forward out of the way.
I tried this using the joint from my hydrobrick (which I believe is the same piece) into a D020 and it seemed more open than going through an adapter, but the effect was probably exaggerated for me since I'm more used to a tighter draw. Give it a shot if you've got one or a flip, I think.
3rd week of HR and I am very happy, too!
One great feature is allowing the bowl to cook for a few and then taking a monster draw. I’m finding this achieves efficiency. Unbelievable that one bowl got me through a day before reload.
Same. This was meant to be a weekend vape but it works so well for sipping that I can use it every day without jacking my tolerance. And also lose myself in the fog when necessary.
