Hope everyone is staying safe out there. The storm from the hurricane hit us pretty hard, but thankfully everyone is all right, power is still out, but I’ve got this top off 120v rocking with the phase SX ! I’ve been cranking it to 600-620 for insanely fast extraction.

Hope you're hanging in there friend, appreciate your battery powered dedication to still rocking with the 'Tribe!!
Stay safe and stoned!

Does anyone have a window on shipping of the tiered ZX bowl? It feels like I am waiting for Christmas to start in September, which is sad.

I'm hoping that everything is finished by the end of next month!

I think anyone who wants one should pre order. I think @invertedisdead now only releases if a pre order threshhold is met.

I pre-ordered day one. I hope it happens. I almost only do half bowls in the ZX.

Pre-order helps me out a lot as it has become the most accurate way for me to truly gauge real interest, everything else is just speculation, even the polls.

The 3 position bowl hasn't done as well as I was hoping for, but in usual PHASE3 style I think I only mentioned it or posted the link one time since it went up. I'm trying to revitalize and get back in the groove of things, it's been a fast year for me but I'm looking forward to getting back to work and testing new ideas and concepts again.

I’m very curious to know exactly what is happening in regards to extraction..noticing this ring of pure oil that forms in the top portion of the bowl with the flower. People toss around words like sublimation but I’d truly like to know what exactly is happening. ..
hope everyone is doing well , we still don’t have power here and yet I’m still raging the SX 😤
Only need one more to complete the collection ,as far as different models not sizes , is the ceramic one. I believe he said there are 50 in the wild ? Hmm 🧐

Never really seen any oil in the top part of the bowl, do you have a photo?

The ZX is the most popular model I've ever made, everything else only exists in very limited numbers from small one-off runs.

I was wondering if there have been any updates to the ZXXL design? I'm interested to see the direction you're taking with the handles and if any tweaks have been made.

Yeah, I went back to the first style cap but kept the high flow slotted inlets and outlets.

Bowl handle is the earlier skeletonized design, the ambidextrous design was really cool but I'm just not confident enough it will dissipate the heat required and I don't want any hot fingers, so without being able to try that design I felt more confident using a traditional handle design.

Heater handle is ceramic with a wood handle. This design made the most sense to reduce the weight and leverage applied on the wireless head and guarantee the most insulation.

Bowl has been increased in height slightly for a little extra clearance room between the two handles.
The distance between the first two screen shelves has been increased an additional 1MM each, for 2MM increase in depth, for more capacity at each screen position. The third shelf is also deeper, for even more capacity in the very bottom position.

Unless anything happens this is pretty much the final design.
 
I've been testing since the beginning of August. It took some time because I'd just bought a Screwball vaporizer a month before getting the ZX. The ZX eventually put the Screwball away. It works great, it's just too freaking large compared to the ZX. The vapor in the Screwball is a different sort as well. It's more of a Stoned feeling vs the Euphoria I get with the ZX. I haven't used the Screwball in over a month now. I'm going to pull it out tomorrow to see how it compares after being on the ZX exclusively for awhile. I have a good bit of glass. I still haven't figured what's my favorite combo yet because it works really, really well with about 10 of my pieces. Here's a pic with another FC Entrepreneurs work. It's a Banger Hanger 2 Hole Bulb Mojo Jojo themed bubbler I had made in 2016, along with the ZX! @JoDaGlass along with the @invertedisdead

The effects last much longer for me as well, when compared to the larger metal counterparts from CH etc. I think the drop off from ZX to any competitors vape is gigantic.

Thanks for rocking with the Z Team my dude!

Such a treat to see so many FC vape veterans rocking the ZX, I really made this vape for you guys so I'm stoked you like it.

Thanks for your support friends

I'm nearly 100% caught up on emails, thank you for your patience everyone; really trying to get my response times back down again.

None of the new prototype parts have arrived yet for testing, I was expecting delivery of those around a month ago now.

Everything seems to be running more behind than normal lately, it seems like these projections are always complicated so thank you for kindly supporting small artisanal operations such as this. Hoping to improve the timeline for next year and get back into things full swing.

Been a busy year, but not so much for PHASE3.
With all the concepts and projects I want to do I don't really feel like I accomplished a ton this year with the business, but with a successful ZXL release and hopefully upcoming ZXXL release while being away from home that's something in itself so thank you all for that, I couldn't do it without ya.

And thanks to everyone coming along for the ride supporting the vision, your help does not go unnoticed!

Another hard hitter with the ZX! Amazing flavor with this one! Lots of volume.




Definitely love to see the headies out, paired with a P3ZX and I just know that's a performing pair :wave:

any metal bowl recommendations that fit the ZX handsfree? I'm missing some conduction at night.

For conduction assistance heat soak the bowl WITH the head on at 575-625F before using. Load the bowl before the heat soak for maximum conduction preload.

I tend to feel these kind of hits are just as, if not more stony than my conduction stuff.

Nice. I'm trying that tonight for sure

Tried it. Two back to back half ZX bowls. Left the head on for about 90 seconds after loading each time. Effects heavy, couldn't open my eyes for 3o mins.

Hey @invertedisdead! Was about to pull the trigger on a ZX but read you were waiting on some prototypes for the
Ergonomic Coil Handles and Coil Caddies to put in stock. Were you planning on selling these separately from the ZX or updating the bundle? Trying to figure out the best time to buy the ZX! =)

I think that @invertedisdead was referring to the prototypes for the ZXXL and not the ZX specifically. I do remember him saying at one point that he had a few extra ZX kits but was waiting for heaters for them. But I could be remembering incorrectly. He should see your post and respond with the next day or two.

Another one for the toolbox! :wave:
When performed this way it's such a fast extraction, even with a few crumbs of herb it provides a potent sedative high.

The bowl cab get pretty hot to the touch when used this way though, so fair warning for anyone trying.

I've got a prototype ordered for a new bowl handle with more insulation to check out.

Howdy friend thanks so much for your interest,

Those samples are all coming in my big batch of new prototypes, but they haven't shown up just yet.
There were a few part thickness issues with some of the o-ring slots that I had to update,
but these test parts really should be shipping out this week to me.

These new parts would be available separately for sure but the ergonomic handles could likely get added to the bundle if the design works and is approved for a production run.

Coil caddies are for wireless use, mostly meant for bangers, but if this design is approved it would potentially allow for some future P3 designs.

Hope this helps a bit!

Note that new ZX preorders are going to ship with the new 3 position bowl as well, I need to update the website to reflect that as some people have asked about that.

The Big Batch of Prototypes has a bunch of new stuff for evaluation,

4 new conduction and hybrid butane / induction portables:
Whatever performs the best during testing will move forward.

These portables are the culmination of multiple years of research and development; as much as I love my pure convection, I’m super excited about testing these conduction centric heavy hitters and trying to create a budget friendly and interactive ritual and experience that will appeal to veterans and first timers alike.

Also a wireless heating station,
new ZX bowl handle,
ergonomic coil handle,
advanced 8MM cooling stem,
and maybe something else I’m forgetting.
