Yeah if you keep the coil pretty tight it stays close to the wired temps for sure. And I think the ball chamber covered by the handle is not a problem because it's above the coil and getting a lot of heat that way. The Chaos has a large section outside, but above the coil, and still heats very evenly.
Love to see the engaging conversation, cheers everyone
First off, good news, ZX ceramics have been rebuilt and are finally completed!
I'm not exactly sure if they were sent out last night or not, I might hear back on that this evening.
This means ceramics will be landing soon, which means some real progress is finally being made.
Super excited to wrap these pending orders up, I know this ones been pretty drawn out so thank you all for your patience and cooperation
Trying to find a new shipping solution and cue the future wait times down.
Could come whenever as the design is pretty much done; but I'm thinking of doing this new quartz vape first, as more people seem to resonate with and associate glass with this "ultra pure" motif I'm after.
Zirconia has proven to be an excellent material for the things I've been making, but I do think there's a lack of familiarity of it on a wider scale, especially when other companies rename it to stuff like "Shinju" to add obscurity.
Yeah if you like reallyyyy low temp terp taster hits the wireless was always harder to achieve that, when I started PHASE3 back in 2022 my first product release was originally going to be a wireless ball vape based on my SCVW, but I ultimately decided to do the corded Z8 first as I figured it was more versatile with zero downtime group session compatibility and increased low temperature stability for terp surfing on the bottom end.
Cordless stuff falls out of that real low end range super quick compared to something constantly receiving power.
The main reason I haven't released a wireless upgrade kit for the ZX it because it was originally designed with reduced mass to allow faster heatup from cold and between temperature changes than other ball vapes. This is especially impressive for being such a heavy insulator material.
To achieve that, it's actually slightly underrated, and leverages the thermal mass of the heating coil itself for temperature stability.
That said it's super cool to see friends on here are having success with and enjoying the ZX as-is as a true wireless option which I think is super cool.
Even though I'm always late to my own party, I have some new ideas for wireless ZX's for increasing their temperature stability so stay tuned for that Z-Team

With the ZXXL wireless about to release/ship out, will we be seeing any function videos of it in use?
Really looking forward to receiving my ZXXL. I think it will pair really well with my ZX. Using the ZX as a daily driver and ZXXL being the heavy hitter.
I picked up on this from you when I joined FC recently and is a big part of why I jumped on the phase3 train! I'm chuffed for my incoming zx and learn just by watching you all discuss things.
Given the imminent arrival of the ZXXL, I thought I'd offer up my old quartz 1.7 up to someone in the thread with the number of P3 enthusiasts here. I don't use it too often these days, mostly due to changing circumstances and a significant reduction in my flower intake. It can be yours if you cover shipping costs and fees to your location from Canada. No bowl or PID though, just the head, coil and handle.
I can almost taste that zxxlGreetings friend,
I just posted yesterday or so in here that the ceramics were just finished after a series of manufacturing delays. Everything is very close to coming together now!
If I haven’t responded to your email I haven’t seen it, gonna try and get caught up on those this morning

So cool! But Please can we label our pictures? Can't we mandate people do that? thanks Mods
I think that would be possible if the pictures were hosted on the forum's server. At least some other forums that directly host the pictures are putting a watermark or label on them.I want that!!!^
That is a very nice looking pipe. Congratulations.
A new Z-pipe is on the way, a “Terplock” in pomegranate and jet black. I usually keep 2-3 different types of glass on hand for different types of hits, depending on my mood in the moment. From dry pipes and small rigs, right up to your standard stoner straight tube - the Z8 delivers the perfect one-hit rip. I also keep several varieties of flower for different feels/time of day and over two years in, the Z8 still shocks me with how transparent and pure it is in terms of flavour. I’ll switch up strains and the new terps will just slap me in the face, it’s like a cannabis sommelier tool that allows your weed to shine.
I like the convenience of wireless but not so much having to dial in the temperature every time the envoromental temperature changes. I do like wireless vapes too but if I had to choose I'd go for wired but obviously it'd be preferable to have the option and maybe get both, saying that it looks fairly easy to make a diy handle for the zx or zxl and make it wireless if you want it wireless.
